Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Political Economy From the Colonial Point of View "The English shipowner it is plain" (from a certain Board of Trade paper) "finds it cheaper to hire foreign labour. In 1853 only 4.4 per cent of the crews were foreigners. The proportion has risen until in 1894 it was 16.95 per cent of the whole, not counting Lascars and Asiatics, who have increased until they are about one-eighth or one-ninth of the entire number... The broad result is that in 1894 about two men did the work of seven on steam vessels in 1854, and that on sailing vessels two did the work of four. The decline has taken place chiefly among able seamen and apprentices." - The Times, 28th August 1895. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrations of Political Economy: Life in the Wilds, a Tale IN an enlightened nation like our own, there are followers of every science which has been marked out for human pursuit. There is no study which has met with entire neglect from all classes of our countrymen. There are men of all ranks and every shade of Opinion, Who study the laws of Divine Providence and human duty. There are many more who inquire how the uni verse was formed and under what rules its move ments proceed. Others look back to the records of society and study the history of their race. Others examine and compare the languages of many nations. Others study the principles on which civil laws are founded, and try to discover what there has been of good as well as of evll in the governments under which men have lived from the time of the patriarchs till now. Others -but they are very few - inquire into the prin ciples which regulate the production and distri bution of the necessaries and comforts of life in society.

Download or read book Two Lectures on Political Economy Delivered at Clinton Hall Before the Mercantile Library Association of the City of New York on the 23d and 30th of December 1831 Classic Reprint written by William Beach Lawrence and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Lectures on Political Economy, Delivered at Clinton Hall, Before the Mercantile Library Association of the City of New York, on the 23d and 30th of December, 1831 But to talk of a theory, as opposed to practice, is a gross perversion of language, and a contradiction in terms. A theory or science is only a history of practice; it is a collection of experiments arranged in order and accompanied by an analysis to unveil their causes and effects, and unless it accords with the results of observation, and bears the test of experience, it is altogether worthless, while, on the other hand, "without principles deduced from analytical reasoning, experience is a useless and a blind guide." There is no proposition however absurd, which statistical data may not be brought to sustain; but it is the part of science to distinguish between unconnected events, and those which succeed one another as cause and effect. We have, indeed, an ample illustration of the consequence of deducing inferences from isolated facts in the appeals made to political arithmetic by both the friends and opponents of the protecting system. On the one side, the falling off in the price of most manufactured commodities, which is common to us and to Europe, and is to be ascribed to the change in the currency, increased facilities of obtaining the raw material, improvements in machinery, the altered situation of the world, and other causes, is claimed as a proof of the beneficial effects of high tariffs; on the other, the depressed condition of the old southern states, - the necessary result of bringing the virgin soil of Illinois and Alabama into competition with the worn out lands of Virginia and Carolina, is wholly imputed to the same Congressional enactments. We do not mean to contend that those who profess to act according to the doctrines of Political Economy, never commit mistakes. It very often happens, that an incorrect application is made of a principle in itself perfectly unexceptionable. A student in Natural Philosophy, regarding solely the vis inertiae of matter, and not attending to friction and other countervailing causes, might be astonished to find that a body, once put in motion, did not continue to move on for ever.

This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conversations on the Principal Subjects of Political Economy P. What is Political Economy? T. The answer to that question, which happens to be a dozen questions in one, should be made in the drift of thought of the questioner. Let me try whether I can find your aim; first, negatively: It is not Theology, though it is concerned with the providential government which overrules the earthly fortunes of men. It is not Jurisprudence, though it does in its inquiries involve provisions for the peace and good order of society. It is not Politics, or the science of civil legislation, though it must be considered and have place in political constitutions and in their administration. Affirmatively: Political Economy is primarily occupied with the laws, natural and social, which govern in the production and distribution of wealth in material things, with a constant outlook to the general welfare of society, so far as that welfare depends upon the necessaries, comforts, and luxuries of physical life. P. You said that my question is in fact a dozen questions in one. How can that be? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literary Remains, Consisting of Lectures and Tracts on Political Economy The following literary remains of Richard Jones have been collected and published, in the belief that ho was not only a man of eminent practical ability in the important public offices which ho filled, but that also his speculations in political economy were of a valuable and original character; and were so to such an extent, that many students of that subject may be glad to see them followed out further than was done in the works published in his lifetime. As this conviction is the main ground of the pains which have been bestowed in bringing forth this volume, perhaps we may be allowed to endeavor to explain briefly the peculiar character of Mr. Jones's politico-economical philosophy. Tor this purpose we must recal to the reader's mind the aspect which Political Economy had assumed in England at the time when Mr. Jones took up the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Discourse on the Rise, Progress, Peculiar Objects, and Importance, of Political Economy MY object in publishing the following Discourse has been to furnish the Students of Political Economy with a general view of the principles on which the science is founded; the distinguishing features of the most celebrated theories that have been advanced to explain its various results the distinction between it and Politics; the utility of its study to all ranks and orders of the community and the plan I follow in teaching it, both in my public and pri vate classes. I had previously attempted to do this in an Introductory Lecture to the Course I have delivered here and in London but it was impossible, in so nar row a space, to touch on many topics that I have here discussed at considerable length, or to treat others so fully as their importance seemed to require. Though the Discourse is chiefly intended for the use of those who may attend my classes, I am not without hopes that it may be of service to others.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Road to Prosperity: A Treatise on Political Economy At the present time hundreds of thousands of families are suffering greatly through the want of employment, which would not be the case if prosperity existed. Many apparently intelligent persons seem to think that if we write and talk prosperity, it is sure to follow. The writer is persuaded that it requires cause to produce effect, and believing the present depression is occasioned by removable causes, undertakes to point out remedies which would bring about the return of prosperous times and permanently establish them. The various subjects will be considered under their respective headings. This book is not copyrighted, hence it is at the disposal of editors and others to use as they think fit, hoping they will improve upon the suggestions or adopt the opinions expressed, having as their object "permanent prosperity and the contentment of the people."
