Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Discourse on the Moral Influence of Trade: Being One of a Course of Lectures on Moral Influence
We are not, however, to discuss thissubject in its political bearings; but to enquire, what moral In?uence it has on those, who are, either directly or indirectly, employed in any depart ment of trade; an enquiry, in which, as inhabi tants of this country, we have a high practical interest, even those of us who may not be in a commercial position; since every gradation in society is sensibly affected by busmess and commerce.
Following, therefore, the most natural order, we shall endeavour to shew, in the first place, the beneficial in?uence, 'and then the demoralizing effects of trade on the community at large.
