Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The True State of the National Finances: With Remedial Suggestions
The Financial affairs of Great Britain, in some one or other of their complicated forms, have afforded a subject for the writers of every poli tical party, and a constant theme for the hou brations of every political economist. But still, in so far as the public in general is concerned, the ignorance which prevails as to their actual state, and the evident disinclination to the re quisite labour of the investigation, may be de scribed as truly lamentable. The assembling of a new Parliament appears to me to be a proper period for endeavouring to awaken the attention of the Legislature and of the public, to a sub jcet which involves the current value and ultimate security of property, the continuance of the in ternal tranquillity of the nation, and the perma nency of our institutions, in Church and State.
