1g almost impossible

to procure on any reasonable terms.
By this state of things, and in the absence of a
bold and intelligible policy for our extrication from
existing difficulties, some of the leading sources
of these difficulties are being aggravated. We
labour under a deficient supply, and high prices of
human food. Yet merchants dare not send for-
ward their orders to those markets, in which it is
to be had, from the uncertainty of being able to
procure the discounts or to realize the securities to
enable them to meet the paper which must be
drawn against their purchases. We have orders
for manufactured goods already in the country and
more orders to arrive, by the execution of which

we might bring foreign exchanges more in our
favour, and furnish a medium more satisfactory
than bullion to pay for the breadstuff-s we require.
B'ut merchants and manufacturers are disinclined
to execute them, from the difficulty of realizing the
Bills, in the first instance to be remitted or drawn
for payment. In a word, our position is of this
anomalous kind that, wanting food, and having
the industry of our manufacturing population to
pay for that food, with customers willing to receive
the products of that industry, we have not either
confidence or a sufficient circulating medium to
enable us to arrange the required exchange of com-
modities. As the result, the commodities which
we most want—breadstuffs ----are rising in the
hands of holders here, and our principal raw mate-
rial, here and in the markets from which we de-

rive it, are rising, because of the decreased pro-
spect of an early supply of either to keep specula-
tion in check ; whilst the manufacturer is daily
limiting his production of fabrics, which he is not
