Address on economic distress and coinage by the London printer
A letter to the Printer of the London Evening Post laments trade ruin and famine amid rising land rents, attacks rulers for prioritizing rents over provision, and urges decisive reform. It argues for stabilizing the gold coin, securing credit and commerce, and approving supplies, while praising Parliament for past action and urging continued effort for national welfare. The piece blames avarice for inclosing lands and starving manufacturers and calls for prudent measures to preserve revenue and commerce.
