Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Free Trade Struggle in England By the Free Trade struggle in England, wo mean the campaign from 1839 to 1846. Of course there were enlightened people before that time, who doubted the wisdom of the Protective system, but they were comparatively few; they were easily brushed aside by those who believed in the blessings of scarcity, and who looked upon abundance as one of the calamities of mankind. The believers in commercial freedom were told that their doctrines were very well in theory, but would never do in practice; and with this convenient argument, they had to he content. No doubt that in the very darkest ages of political economy, when Protection" nourished in direct proportion to the popular ignorance, there were men in England who saw clear over the fogs in the valley, the humanizing influence of Free Trade, shining on the heights beyond, even as Galileo and Columbus saw farther and clearer than the men around them; who thought the physical sciences were all very well in theory, but quite unavailable in practice. Indeed, more than a hundred years ago, Adam Smith bad refuted the arguments on which the Protective theory was based, and which up to his time had been known by a sort of paradox as the "Commercial System." Carried to its logical results its effect was to cripple commerce by closing ports to international trade. In the time of Henry Clay it was known in this country as "The American System," and in our own day it is called by the captivating title of "Protection to Native Industry." Mr. Huskisson. one of the most enlightened member of Lord Liverpool's cabinet, made some advances toward Free Trade, as early as 1825, and even before that time the merchants of London had petitioned Parliament in behalf of commercial freedom. Their argument was remarkably eloquent and clear. Nevertheless, it was not until about the year 1836 that the Free Traders made any organized effort against the insular and bigoted system of Protection which had burdened the industries of England for hundreds of years. Up to that time the liberal and scientific principles of Free Trade were regarded as political abstractions, beautifully adapted to some undiscovered Utopia, which might be expected to appear about the time of the millenium.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Lesson: The Free Trade Struggle in England To keep this book abreast of the debate, I have revised it, and have given some additional facts bearing on the lesson to Americans which is given them in the study of the Free Trade Struggle in England. Had the English arguments for Protection been preserved in Mr. Edison's phonograph, the unwinding of the machine would not have more faithfully reproduced them than they have been reproduced by the American protectionists in the debates in Congress - except ing this one, the foreigner pays the tax. In all the debates in Parliament between 1841 and 1846, I cannot find it of record that any member was foolish enough to think that, or daring enough to say it. M. M. Trumbull.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Free-Trade Movement in England England stands in a peculiar position with respect to the Free-trade System. Its theoretical soundness and practical advantages had been proclaimed by scientific adepts for nearly a century before it was adopted and brought into actual use by the government of any country; and then, it was only by the government of one country. That country was England. In all other states, the amateurs of the science of Political Economy have set at naught the conclusions of its professors, and the action of statesmen with regard to Free Trade has been the very reverse of that advocated by the best thinkers and writers on the subject. Scientific men still persistently advocate the principle; while statesmen (save in the case of England) persistently act in opposition to it. How came England to form that exception 1 This, we think, should afford an. interesting subject for inquiry. It was in 1752 that David Hume laid the foundation of the science of Political Economy by the publication of his luminous essays on "Commerce," "Money," "Balance of Trade," "Taxes," &c. His treatment of those topics and of others incidentally discussed, such as "Free Trade," "Paper Money," &c., was at once logical and lucid, and exhibited his complete mastery over all these subjects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Case Against Free Trade It is a commonplace of political study that the territorial expansion of the Empire was in the main a haphazard affair. British Governments, in spite of the perhaps not unnatural suspicions of foreign powers, have pursued no settled or reasoned policy of expansion. More often than not, when pro claiming an annexation or a protectorate, they have been the unwilling agents of forces stronger than themselves. Again and again they have surrendered what British soldiers have conquered again and again they have refused to take what British explorers have offered. But the genius of the race has brooked no denial, and in spite of definite refusals or reluctant acquiescence on the part of its rulers, the Empire has grown to be the vast accumulation of dominions and dependencies whose representatives are now assembled in London for the coronation of the Sovereign.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Free Trade and British Commerce This little work, which was written in 1879, has enjoyed a wide circulation, owing chiefly, no doubt, to some words of praise from a great orator, and to the powerful propagandism of the Cobden Club. We are now in 1881, and I have little to add to, or to subtract from, either the facts or the principles embodied in it. I have, however, carefully revised the present edition, and made a few corrections in trifling matters of detail. The present position of our trade with the United States of America curiously confirms the doctrines advanced in this little book. In August, 1879, Mr. James Howard, the present member for Bedfordshire, asked me my opinion as to how the United States had been paid for their large exports to us; my reply was as follows: - 1. The Americans have been buying largely, from both England and the Continent, of their own Bonds and Stocks, and have given prices above the marketable value of them in Europe. 2. Normally the United States are exporters of gold, they being producers of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fight for a Free Sea The American people of today, weighed in the bal auces of the greatest armed conflict of all time and found not wanting, can afford to survey, in a spirit of candid scrutiny and without reviving an ancient grudge, that turbulent episode in the weld ing of their nation which is called the War of 1812. In spite of defeats and disappointments this war was, in the large, enduring sense, a victory. It was in this renewed defiance of England that the dream of the founders of the Republic and the ideals of the embattled farmers of Bunker Hill and Saratoga achieved their goal. Henceforth the world was to respect these States, not as so many colonies bitterly wrangling among themselves, but as a sovereign and independent nation.
