The labourer will gain at both ends. He will gain by getting chesper bread, and he will gain by The increased demand for his labper, consequent on the increased restment of Cars The shouting population of this counter consuming wheten bread amoneis to about $500,000 and if sack con- somes but 100 four sund leaves a year, a saving of 3d on each loaf will core to 5th a year, which, on the aterage wages of labour, will be at least twelve per cent. Wherever the realthy may thick of it, an income tax of 12 per cent on the wages of labour is so joke to the day labourer and ortizza, and from this intolerable barthen be is relieved by the abdlition.

But it is a paperstition of the menopolists that the wages of labour will fall with the price of corn, and of course fine with it, although the history of society has not a shadow of evidence to warrant the twardy-all testimony tending, on the con ary, to show that there is so earthly connexion
