TUESDA Y MORNING, APRIL 8, 1851.

THE London Times has devoted two articles to a
critical examination of the speech of Lord Stanley
at the recent banquet, given to him at Merchant
Tailors' Hall. Of course the demonstration does
not please our contemporary. Lord Stanley and
the Protectionists ought to have been extinct by
this time. There ought not to he within these
realms a man hardy enough, in the face of the un-
exampled prosperity which has been so frequently
demonstrated by ingeni,us statisticians, to harbour
a doubt of the success of our free-trade policy.
What seems chiefly to annoy our contemporary,
however, is the tact that his lordship has furnished
him with nothing for him to try his teeth upon.
He has not pledged hitrself to }ing forward any
definite measure of Protection. He has laid down
no definite line of policy. The sum of his achieve-
ment is that, whAst describing the agricultural in-
terest as labouring under depression, he has hinted
at a mitigation of the unjust hurthen of taxation
borne by it ; and thereby thrown down the
gauntlet to those who, with Sir Charles Wood
and many other authorities on finance a 0" main-
tain that it hears no such unjust hurthen.

We at once admit that his lordship's speech is
wanting in the requirements which the Times con-
siders it should possess, as that of a statesman
looking forward to the possession of power. Lord
Stanley has not pointed out to " a weak and totter-
ing Alinistry"—one which " is obliged to catch at
support here, and at a stray vote there, to concede
this point anel to abandon that measure"—the pre-
cise policy upon which he would himself attempt
to govern the country. But his lordship has made
himself tolerably intelligible nevertheless to those
who really wish to understand him. His striking
remark, that the pet interest of the free-traders--
the cotton manufacture—has decreased its con-
sumption of raw rna;erial since 1846, and that,
under the operation of the Navigation Act, British
tonnage is decreasing, while foreign is increasing,
point with tolerable closeness to his lordship's
opinions. We trust that we may also interpret
favourably the following passage of his speech :

" T greatly fear there are symptoms which prove that
even our apparent proFpr-ritv is hollow and deceitful, and
that in the midst of this seeming prosperity, and this
great extension of commerce, we are slowly eating into
the capital and strength of the nation. (Hear.) We are
diminishing the means from which our annual burdens
are to be borne. You are in the vain pursuit of cheap-
ness, and nothing but. cheapness; and you forget that
just in proportion as you make all articles cheap, and
diminish the value of all articles to the producers at large,
so you benefit one class and one class only—those consu-
mers who are not producers in their turn. You advantage

those who are in the possession of fixed money incomes.
but by diminishing the value of everything else you raise
the value of money and enhance the al owing burden of
that national debt, which no other country could support,
and increase the pressure qf taxes. which, however they
are themselves diminished, are borne with increasing
diffioulty by the people, whose capital is constantly de-
creasing."

Does the Times, or any other authority, imagine
that Lord Stan would attempt to arrest this
ruinous tendency of things by the mere imposition
of a fixed duty upon grain ? Impossible. The
ruinous process described has been going on for
years before free trade in grain, or any thing like it,
was thought of. For years the money power in
this country has been trampling upon its industry
and enterprise; the rich have been growing richer,
and the poor have been gr► wing poorer; and it is
most improbable that a statesman like Lord Stan-
ley can have omitted to observe that not only has
the process in question, in the commercial portion
of the country, been contemporaneous with the
existence of the monetary laws of 1819 and 1844,
but that agricultural depression as well took its
date from the return to a metallic standard. We
are assured that Lord Stanley is not thus unobser-
vant, from a Report on the Currency, furnished by a
special committee to the " National Association for
the Protection of Industry and Capital," of which
association his lordship is an honoured member.
In the Report in question, we find it remarked
that :

" It is impossible to over-estimate the advantages
which the system of commercial credit has afforded to
the development of our manufacturing and commercial
undertakings. But it is obvious that the existing laws
for the regulating of banking and currency have in a
great measure rendered insecure and limited these means
of finding scope for the industry of our manufacturing
and commercial classes ; while the recurrence of repeated
monetary crises has so shaken confidence as to destroy
the credit and with it the independence, of many who
formeriy, by adding their industry to the use of compa-
ratively small capitals, afforded wide-spread and conti-
nued employment, as well as the means of elevation, to
the industrious classes.

Lonetai legi

powerful effects in ri
capitalists engaged in

lation has had such obvious and
tricting the operations of small
anufactures and carnmerce ; and,

by shaking or destroying the credit of all but the large
capitalists, restricting trade virtually to the hands of a
few, whose mere subordinates and dependents the minor
traders have in too many instances become ; it is obvious
that the same causes must have operated with extended
effect upon farmers as a class, and upon farming as a
trade. The restrictions imposed on the country hankers
the acts of 1844 and 1815 have greatly impaired their
inducements to accommodate farmers; and have obvi-
aded to increase the deficiency of credit and
accommodation, so severely felt by the agricul-
In fact, loans to farmers under these arbi-

, restrictions are becoming mere matter of history.
It is true, however, that there is also another reason, at
the present moment, for the indisposition of country
" ices to farmers—the belief that

to mai'

loans would

permanently save them from the ruin

which is im

ver them-

It is impossible, we repeat, that Lord Stanley,
and the members of the Protectionist party, can
have shut their eyes to the importance of a ques-
tion, upon which the lamented Lord Geo. Bentinck,
to whose exertions and talent Lord Stanley so
feelingly referred in his speech on Wednesday, was
so well informed. Speaking of the crisis of 1847,
Lord George remarked :

" Then is it a want of cotton that has produced this
distress ? No ; is it a want of credit ? Is it your restric-
tive monetary laws, your cruel Bank Charter Act; your
4-he true object of which we were let know by the
, of endeavouring by anticipation to correct
any too great commercial speculation ; it is your act of
parliament, passed with the view of making things in
England artificially cheap, 80 that when, by your free
imports, you have allowed all the gold to pass from the
country, because foreign countries would not take your
manufactures in return, you might then bring back the
d *--this it is that has produced the distress.

the price it was purchased at in Cuba or Brazil ; tea sold
by the pound retail at a price less than what it cost the
merchant by the chest in Canton. These are the works
of your free traders, who must bolster up their new-
fangled schemes by means of this Bank Charter Act. I
am assured—l speak in the presence of mill-owners and
cotton-:spinners, who may contradict me if they can—that

for the fir•-_,t time in the history of cotton manufactures,
calicoes and yarns have been sold at the price the cotton
cost. (Hear, hear.) Do you think that is a profitable
trade for England ? (Hear, hear.) It will bring back
