TO THE SIGHT HONOURABLE LORD JOHN HUSSELL . v Mi'Lord , Since the triumph of Free Trade principles was accomplished ; I have been in the habit of calling your attention to the subject weekly and monthly , and , indeed , while anticipations as to the result were high , I cautioned , you of the fallacy of Your policy . ' "While engaged
in laying the foundation of a new system of Domestic Economy , I have had Very ample opportunitiesof canvassing what the inevitable Tesult o f Free Trade institutions "iriust lead to ; and I have been strengthened in every one of my most alarming forebodings , because lam now convinced- that Free Trade in Laiovr and Produce , if not accompanied by Free Trade in Religion and Land , mHSt , and inevitably Trill , lead to Free Trade in thrones , titles , distinctions , and property .
I dare say you have missed me from the political arena of late , and yon must understand the cause . Firstly , then , I feared the effect of excitement upon an impoverished people ; and I calculated upon the God-send my incarceration would be to "Whi ggery during a contested election , as I am free to confess , that , under the pressure of famine , I could not keep my tongue within the Kmitspf W ^' S co . ^ nience ; and , secondly , I was resolved that no violence of mine should be the means of introducing a . free labour class to their neighbours , with characters damaged by their leader ' s intemperance . But , my Lord , there is a point
beyond which human endurance cannot be driven ; and the effect of your policy is daily bringing me nearer and nearer to that point . 1 have not the heart , my Lord , that can bear the tears * of mothers ; the " hungry howl of little innocent children , that beset my door from morning to night ; nor can I say to able-bodied men in search of work , 'f I can hear your tale of . woe" unmoved ! ' When honest men , willing to earn their bread " by the sweat of their brow , " come to me , and tell me that their families have not tasted food for ajwhqieday , and when their anxious countenance stamps the assurance with truth , I cannot say , . ? Go about your business . 1 '' . ¦ y
My Lord , I am now giving'employment to about 300 men—carpenters , masons , plasterers , bricklayers , quarrymen , sawyers , carters , blacksmiths , wheelwrights , slaters , and labourers , and that' upon ldO acres of land , which previously never employed more than , four men , any one year ; ^ mention this fact ,- my Lord , that you may learn that there is an ample field , for the . employment of
remunerahve , \ because productive , labours and to caution you against the fallacy of supposing , that the most stringent laws of political economy will reconcile able-bodied men to the theory of Free Trade . . My . Lord , you and your press have dealt in just and wholesale abuse of the Irish landlords ; but , my . Lord , as I apprised you in August last , Famine has now come to vour own door ; ' We read of food - riots in
England ; and the clemency and charity of English landlords and the wealthier classes is manifest id their alacrity to serve as special constables , and as accoutred yeomen , to . preserve the peace . My Lord , wul you have the goodness to point out in your place in Parliament what the English iipper and middle classes have done , to mitigate the present want ? Perhaps you will answer—the Poor Law& Well , my Lord , in such case one fact is worth a bushel of arguments , and hereit is : — Ou Tuesdays labourer of fifty-six years of age asked me vervimnlorinclv , "if he " might leave
off work before the . usual time , as his wife was not expected to live , and he had a large family , and had several miles to walk . " I told him to " go then , not to stop away from her : " arid he said , " She won ' t live ; the doctor ordered , her some soup ; but the overseer Drdartd him away , and would not give him any " Kow , my Lord , this is no Free Trade steadloat Fatty Tale . The man's name is Richard Curtis ; he lives in the parish of Eldersfield , ' ^ nd , * of course ; you expect'him to be a good and loyal subject , ready to defend the C&urcft and Qt » eeB , with ; lhis ; iiJfe > , blpbd . " £ a ? wio disce omnes \' —4 xom -this sample , my Lord ,
you may judge the sack ; and now for a more extensive reTiew ^ of . our parochial affairs Neifiier landlord rior parson in this parish has attempted' to assist the poor in their distress ; while the farmers , burdened with high rents , heavy tithes , and onerous local taxation , are , as I predicted , dispensing with as much manual labour as possible . Flour is 18 s . a bushel , with every indication of a rise ; wages are 7 s .,. 8 s ., and in some instances , 9 s . a w eek . I am giving : 12 s . ; so that a man , Bis wife and family , at the best wages , can earn half- a" bushel of flour a week and nothing left
for rent , firing , clothes , . tools ; or wet days . My Lord , this will be a particularly disastrous season for the agricultural labourers , because the hay harvest will be * three weeks , at least , later than usuali and there will be but little employment in theT' interval . " : ; - "' I went to Gloucester on Monday / and gave a commission for ten tons of potatoes , but could not get them under £ 14 a ton—85 s . a sack ; flour FOUR POUNDS a ^ -4532 a ton . Now , in this state of things , what are the jleople to do ?
