Bank Consol
An Englishman on Papers and Public Policy
The writer argues against deceptive or ornate rhetoric, urging honesty in public debate. He critiques a political pamphleteer and a historian for seditious framing, defends the government’s prerogatives, and condemns non resistance. The letter condemns taxation, debt, and the push for peace, while urging pursuit of trade interests including Opium and Sult-petre under favorable terms.
