If The Corn Laws Were Altered, The

In Great Britain The Price Of Food Is At A Higher Level Than In Any Other Country, And Consequently, The British Artisan Labours At A Disadvantage In Proportion To The Higher Rate Of His Food.

If The Corn Laws Were Altered, The British Artisan Might Again Be Able To Subsist By Twelve Hours' Labour, A Most Desirable Event.

I Will Undertake To Prove That The Present Corn Laws Have Been Detrimental To The Public, Without Being Beneficial To The Agricultural Interest.

There Is Abundant Proof That The Opening Of Our Ports Always Tends To Raise The Price Of Foreign Corn To The Price In The English Market, And Not To Sink The Price Of British Corn To The Price In The Continental Market.

I Am Willing To Admit That If The Agriculturists Are Oppressed By Peculiar Burdens, They Ought To Be Relieved From Them, Or Be Allowed A Fair And Just Protection Equivalent To All Such Peculiar Burdens.
