Stran 666 - The school-boy whips his taxed top — the beardless youth manages his taxed horse, with a taxed bridle on a taxed road ; — and the dying Englishman pouring his medicine, which has paid seven per cent. into a spoon that has paid fifteen per cent.
Stran 581 - THAT THERE CAN BE NO TRADE UNPROFITABLE TO THE PUBLIC ; FOR IF ANY PROVE SO, MEN LEAVE IT OFF; AND WHEREVER THE TRADERS THRIVE, THE PUBLIC, OF WHICH THEY ARE A PART, THRIVE ALSO.
Stran 235 - To which let me add, that he, who appropriates land to himself by his labour, does not lessen, but increase the common stock of mankind...
Stran 558 - Were the face of the earth, he says, vacant of other plants, it might be gradually sowed and overspread with one kind only, as for instance with fennel; and were it empty of other inhabitants, it might in a few ages be replenished from one nation only, as for instance with Englishmen.
Stran 666 - His whole property is then immediately taxed from 2 to 10 per cent. Besides the probate, large fees are demanded for burying him in the chancel ; his virtues are handed down to posterity on taxed marble; and he is then gathered to his fathers, — to be taxed no more.
Stran 434 - The wealth of a neighbouring nation, however, though dangerous in war and politics, is certainly advantageous in trade. In a state of hostility it may enable our enemies to maintain fleets and armies superior to our own ; but in a state of peace and commerce it must likewise enable them to exchange with us to a greater value, and to afford a better market, either for the immediate produce of our own industry, or for whatever is purchased with that produce.
Stran 325 - I have been told by Englishmen, and not only by such as were born in America, but even by such as came from Europe, that the English colonies in North- America, in the space of thirty or fifty years, would be able to form a state by themselves, entirely independent of Old England.
Stran 559 - ... have more industry and frugality than the natives, and then they will provide more subsistence, and increase in the country ; but they will gradually eat the natives out.
Stran 376 - The carriage of grain, coals, merchandize, etc., is in general conducted with little more than half the number of horses with which it formerly was. Journies of business are performed with more than double expedition. Improvements in agriculture keep pace with those of trade. Everything wears the face of dispatch ; every article of our produce becomes more valuable ; and the hinge which has guided all these movements, and upon which they turn, is the reformation which has been made in our public...
Stran 566 - It is not, however, the rent of the land that determines the price of its produce, but it is the price of that produce which determines the rent of the land, although the price of that produce is often highest in those countries where the rent of land is lowest This seems to be a paradox that deserves to be explained. " In every country there is a variety of soils, differing considerably from one another in point of fertility.
