Liber No. 54
Nov. 13
|
the old Regulation, and the Provisions in the late Inspection Act are
ineffectual for their Prevention, we should be willing to concur in
any reasonable Method to alter, explain or enforce the Provisions;
but as the new Regulation is framed, there can be no Doubt but it
would be productive of a very great Reduction on Articles clearly
chargeable under the old, and for this we appeal to the two Regula-
tions, and what, at first Sight, must strike every Reader. We entirely
agree with you in Opinion, that protracting the Session by a Pro-
cedure, from which nothing is to be expected but a. fruitless Expence,
ought always to be avoided; and therefore explicitly inform you,
that we shall (except as above mentioned) adhere to our Proposition
respecting the Regulation of ffees
