dc.description.abstract | Among those many useful topics to which I have alluded, the
discussion of Free-trade, and its partial adoption by us, and other
nations, has been attended with many beneficial results. It is my
main object in this paper to press on our members, and on the
community at large, the necessity for the full and complete adoption
of this principle, in all our commercial relations throughout the
world. Whatever may be the delays in carrying out to its full completion
this great principle for bringing mankind into more peaceful
relations, and in extending the traffic with all nations, which results
in the greatest good to all, whatever difficulties may impede its
its grand and speedy consummation, I have no doubt of its ultimate
success among all civilized nations. The march of the great truth,
that it is for the interest of all, to leave trade as free as those winds
of heaven which waft our ships round the world, cannot now be much
longer arrested by ignorance or cupidity. Every impediment which
yet stands in the way of free intercourse, must be removed; and the
sooner these great commercial nations of which we form a part,
sweep them all away, the better it will be for us all?the happier,
the wealthier, and the more steadily prosperous, our people will be. | en |
