We come now to the not to be mistaken Ministerial
insanity, in the proposed measure for extinguishing our
Navigation Laws, that long-tried foundation and strong-
hold of our national prosperity and pre-eminence, as the
first nation upon earth. The proposal to pull down this
grand fabric, wonderful to say, is now tamely listened to
by a bought and sold constituency, as if it were a vestry
measure for the purchase of a bell-rope. The time was,
when every parish throughout the United Kingdom would scrioe.. _
