Postscript to the Printer of the London Evening Post
A reader criticizes Parliament’s bounty on corn exportation as harming the poor at home. He argues charity should start locally, mocks noble neglect of domestic labor, cites St Paul and Leviticus, and claims the public paid about 330,000 pounds for export bounty in a single year, with the prior year similar.
