Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letter to E Right Hon. William Pitt: Chancellor of His Majesty´s Exchequer, &C, &C, &C, Upon the Subject of His Late Speech in Parliament, Concerning the Scots Distilleries The question was a question-of revenue certainly, but the revenue must be relinquished altogether, and the Distilleries stopt, if the consumption of spirits could not be diminished in that part of the kingdom; for the excesses which the present use of them occasioned were enormous." You surely, Sir, merit much commendation for delaying the discussion of the business, so as you may obtain accurate information, and have time to deliberate maturely upon the subject; for I am persuaded, that nothing but very erroneous statements could have induced you to express yourself as you have done. Though, therefore, I occupy a very humble station in society, I shall make no apology for this address, as I think myself entitled to embrace the opportunity afforded by the delay of the business, to lay before you the following statement, which, from what you said in the House, I am persuaded will he found entirely new to you.
