A reader urges Parliament to curb poverty by raising alehouse licenses and reducing their number, arguing higher licenses would cut drunkenness and bolster liquor-tax revenue. The writer links open-field depopulation to rising poor rates, proposes county wide perches taxed share and workhouses, and warns of enclosure-driven hardship and food price pressures.
