Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hints for an Answer to the Letter of the Chairman and Deputy Chairman of the East-India Company: To the Right Hon. Robert Dundas, Dated 13th January, 1809 The approaching termination of the exclusive privileges of the East-India Company, has naturally given birth to a very general enquiry into the wisdom of the system, upon which the commercial intercourse between this country, and our possessions in the East, has hitherto been conducted. Of those who have engaged in the public discussion of this momentous question, the gentlemen whose correspondence with Lord Melville has recently been published, are the most conspicuous, and certainly not the least able disputants. That these letters should have excited a very general attention, is by no means surprising. A much less distinct and elaborate statement of the case of the East-India Company, would, under the same circumstances, have been sufficient to awaken the curiosity of every man, who feels any interest in a question, to which probably but very few are wholly indifferent. Of the justice of the reasoning, and the accuracy of the statements, contained in the celebrated letter of the 13th January 1809, very different opinions may be entertained; but in one point - a sentiment of satisfaction that the public are at length in possession of that document - all parties will probably concur.
