LONDON :
FRIDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 4, 1842.

The provincial papers teem with plans for in-
creasing the quantity of food grown at home,
Apparently the landowners have begun to per-
ceive that the present system cannot be much
longer endured, and they hope to turn aside the
wrath of those they have injured by promises of
future plenty. Great systems of tile drainage are
spoken of. Every acre is to be made to yield
double the present quantity, and the landlords
will ensure us a vast supply, if the League will
only cease its agitation, and allow the present
Corn-law, and the present so-called protection,
to continue.

Amongst the schemes for increasing the home
produce, and for conferring additional benefits
on the landowners, the one put forth by Mr.
BLACKER, of Armagh, " a good agriculturist,"as
he is called in the Northern Whig," but a worse
than indifferent political economist," seems the
most preposterous. It is bad enough to propose,
with the generality of the landowners, that they
should be allowed to underdrain and improve
the lands by means of a tax wrung from the rest
of the people ; but Mr. BLACKER proposes, in ad-
dition, that the Government, which is a continual
borrower, like a paper-issuing bank, should also,
like a bank, turn lender, and ensure prosperity to
agriculture by a loan of public money to land-
lords, of one or two millions a-year, at 3l per
cent. We need not criticise such a plan in de-
tail. It is too childish to merit notice, and we
should not have bestowed any an it had it not
been favourably spoken of by some of the land-
lords' journals. All schemes for the direct en-
couragement of agriculture seem to sin against
common sense and the best established principles,

and we should regret to see any of ti►em adopted.
On this ground we•seldon► trouble ourselves with
those which fall in our way, being convinced
that they are all essentially erroneous, and must,
if acted on, occasion mischief and disappointment.
The best and the only encouragement to agri-
culture is an increased demand for its products,
that is people•to consume them who have some-
thing to give for them. The farmers and land-
lords gain nothing by multiplying beggars; but
the increase of merchants, who bring wealth of
various kinds from other countries, and the in-
crease of manufacturers, artisans, and artists,

Who by their lab Our and wealth gratify the wants,
natural or artificial, .of the agricultural classes,
bestows-on . them a rich reward for their exer-
tions. The increase of commerce and manufac-
tures is not merely the best, as Sir ROBERT PEEL
has stated; it is, we repeat, the only encourage-
ment which can make agriculture thrive. To
encourage agriculture, therefbre, we must permit
manufactures and commerce to extend, and
those who would encourage it by stifling the
latter, or checking their growth, are as ignorant
and barbarous as those savages who, by muti-
lating the human body, count on increasing its
beauty and vigour.

At present the complaint of the agriculturists
do not get enough, or ais that theyremunerat-
ing price, for what they produce. They are
grumbling from Cape Clear to Flamborough
Head at the fall of prices. At the same time, it
is plain, from the high price of agricultural pro-
. duce hitherto, that they have had more than
their share of the produce of manufactures and
trade. The law intended to give them more.
The law has, at the same time, curbed manufac-
tures and commerce, and put a limit to their pro-
ductions. The chief cause of the present fall of
prices is the comparative inability of the manu-
facturing and commercial classes to buy. They
have little or nothing to give in exchange for
agricultural produce. There are thousadds Of
mouths in our towns hungering for food, who,
receiving hardly any wages,cannot be good cus-
tomers of the farmers. To' rais
e prices, to in-
crease the effective demand for farmndproduce, to
encourage agriculture, the onli way is to put
• these men in the way of earning wages. The
quantity and value of manufacturing land com-
mercial products must be increased before there
can be anything more to give to the farmers.
