Carron Twist's Sixth Letter on Free Trade and Corn Laws
A harsh critique targets Sir Robert Peel and the Corn Laws. The writer argues that restrictive trade policy drains gold from England, harms landlords who profit from protection, and widens wealth gaps. The letter asserts free interchange boosts national prosperity, condemns absentee landowners, and predicts further analysis on land value linked to manufacturing progress.

Inquiry On Sandgate Affray Opens In Newcastle
Major general Sir C Napier presided at a court of inquiry into the Sandgate affray where soldiers of the 87th regiment clashed with police. Testimony runs Tuesday and Wednesday and will go to the commander in chief. In Jervis street Desi Portee and Joseph Thompson were charged with creating disturbance and incitement. Thompson denied the charge while police and inspectors testified to his provocation and assault on an officer. Thompson was committed to prison for a week and then fourteen days amid shouted anti popery cries and loyalty to Mr Gregg.
