The Council of the National Anti-Corn-law League con-
...LI'S in this faithful and humilieing description of the state of
4,411, beloved country, and it also cordially and fully approves
" rightful course suggested for the restoration of our national
A:Prusaerity. The League earnestly seeks to become it-rime-
' rtely and ardently united with you in the NATIONAL contest
ler the. Repeal of the Bread-tax.
%The League congratulates you on the adoption of the above
~etrepolitan resolution, and recognises the same enlightened
Zieet so forcibly advocated in a memorable petition of your
1 'itizens upon a like occasion in the year 1820. A quarter of a
wutnry since, it was the proud distinction of the Merchant Ci-
* Sof London to lead the way in the path of FREE-TRADE.
"e recs.' to your minds the following imperishable principles
V that Petition—the goodly seed ehich has since yielded in-
%table fruit:—
,i, "That Foreign Commerce is eminently conducive to the
.eldth and prosperity of a country, by enabling it to import the
irtiodities for the production of which the soil, climate,
Ohl, and industry of Min r countries are best calculated, and
Pnrt in payment those articles for which its own situation
better adapted.
.4: That the maxim of BITTING IN THE CHEAPEST MARKET
el SELLING IN THE DEAREST, which regulates every mer-
-2114 in his individual dealings, is strictly applicable as the
rule for the whole nation.
"That, unfortunately, a policy the very reverse of this, has
, and is more or less adopted and acted upon by the Govern-
eUt of this and of every other country, each trying to exclude
.ft
CProductions of other countries, with the specious and well.
nt design of encouraging its own productions ; thus inflict-
''SP" the bulk of its subjects, who are consumers, the neces-
la of submitting to privations in the quantity or quality oif
odities' and thus rendering what ought to be the source
‘,llut.ital benefit and of harmony amongst States, a constantly
—,rl..ng occasion of jealousy and hostility.
it 9at an investigation of the effects of the restrictive system
.4 this time is peculiarly called for, as it may, in the opinion of
iZPetitioners, lead to a strong presumption that the distress
Oh now so generally prevails is considerably aggravated by
17 aptem.
It ~:l hat in declaring, as your petitioners do, their conviction
4.e itnpolicy and injustice of the restrictive system, and in
,litalg every practicable relaxation of it, they have in view only
,& 111? arts of it as are not connected, or are only subordinately
z With the public revenue. It is against every restrictive
, 471 Con of trade not essential to the revenue ; against all
-14441 merely protective from foreign competition; and against
xcess of such duties as are partly for the purpose of re-
rialEn and partly for that of protection, that the prayer of the
went petition is respectfully submitted to the wisdom of
!. .„,lUlent."
', w.ellew-Countrymen!—This area your declaration in 1820.
, 41„, z have only followed in the wake of your own prophetic
111.1_urial ;we are acting on its instruction. Aid us in our
Aiours to give full effect to its indisputable truths. If in
