COBDEN SUPPORTS THE MOVEMENT TO REDUCE DUTY ON WINE
COBDEN
(Richard, 1804-1865, Statesman)
Autograph Letter Signed to B. Oliveira
saying that he is "unhappily prevented from attending the Festival to be held on the 9th inst to promote the reduction of the Wine Duties, I trouble you with a line to say that the object of the demonstration has my hearty sympathy. Although I have always been in favor of applying the principles of Free Trade to our own legislation, without waiting for the concurrent action of other Countries, yet I see with pleasure that many French & other foreign visitors are expected to be present at your meeting, for as they are known to be advocates of Commercial freedom, I take it for granted that they consider that a reduction of our duties on their great staple export would assist them in their effort to diminish the imposts on our production in their Country ...", 3 sides 8vo., on mourning paper, Midhurst 8th July
