Free Trade in England.

In lS49 the British government lnaugu-
rated the policy of free trade. In 1876
the corn laws were repealed, and between
tha. period and 1S49 great many re-
strictive enlctments on commerce were
removed. Many Eng lish statesmen pre-
dicted that ruin to the country would re-
suit in consequence of the abandonment
of the protective system. l, was loudly
asserted that foreign goods would under
sell British articles of manufacture In
their own markets; that the country
would be drained of its gold and that the
a. If laborers would be reduced to
-, - rates. Yet what has been the
e,owtb ns,.r wages OF English laborers
