Postscript on Tallow Duty and Monarchic Power Critique
A reader's letter from 1758 argues for a bill to lower import duties on beef and tallow, noting high prices hurting the poor. It lauds a Duke and a gentleman for supporting free importation and warns against FORESTALLERS and ENGROSSERS. The piece expands into reflections on Limited Monarchy, power, and public virtue, alongside naval notices and market prices.
