Land, In England, Is Valuable,

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.

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.

Worse There Cannot Be; A Better, I Believe, There May Be, By Giving Energy To The Capital And Skill Of The Country To Produce Exports, By Increasing Which, Alone, Can We Flatter Ourselves With The Prospect Of Finding Employment For That Part Of Our Population Now Unemployed.

I See No Reason For Giving The Capital Employed In Agriculture Greater Protection Than The Capital Vested In Other Branches Of Trade, Manufacture, Or Commerce.

What Farmers Require Is, That The Prices Should Be Moderate, And The Markets Steady And For This Reason I Did, In 1826, 1827, And 1828, Take The Course Which I Would Now Recommend To The House.
