A. S. WATSON & CO. There was clearly but one way to set about the task; and that was to seek by every inela ture Eagland's Free Trade againet, bezaelf. Seventy years ago Germany had been split up commercially into a number of petty states, each of whom carefully "protected" itself against its neighbour. That there was any trade (31 between these incoherent particles was the wonder, rather than that it was as amall as it proved. So thought a number of energetic men, and under their influence the barriers to the internal trade of Germany had been removed, to the no small advantage incidentally of British trade, though that of course formed ne portion of the original plan. The hint was taken. The old Protection bad failed because the constituents were too small; enlarge the clements and abolish for ever thie bugbear of British Free Trade. Now if Germany, and the other countries that On the lat Juno, at No. 1, Caster Road, Bhang held with her that the growth of British trade constituted of itself a menace and a. danger, had been content to work on these lines we should have, so far from bearing a grudge, wished them a hearty Godspeed. The benefits to be derived from Free Trade are not one-sided; it benefits him who gives as well as him who receives, and the surest sign of a wholesome trade is that importer and exporter deriva mutual and reciprocating advantages. Everything accordingly, the true Free-trader holde, that has a tendency to disorder the free current of trade has a distinctly deleterious effect. This is one
