Great, however, as are the impedi- ments to such changes, there is no doubt that they have commenced upon a pretty large scale. Where any capital existed and the soil was not entirely worn out, pasture has been substituted for the cultivation of corn. Sheep and cattle, but particularly the former, have been increased to a considerable extent, and the grain formerly grown for export has been applied as their food during the winter. All the accounts from Po 56 CORN LAWS. land agree in this statem...ent ; and the longer our system of corn laws continues, the more extensive will such a change necessarily become. Another objection may be started with re- spect to the quantity of wheat likely to be im- ported into this country. On a partial view of the case, it may appear that when our mar- kets are open for the wheat of the whole world, we shall be liable to be inundated with it, and that changes of a fearful amount will consequently take place in our agricultu- ral prospects. Such an opinion is, I admit, at first sight, not unreasonable, and it certain- ly is incumbent upon those who, like myself, conceive that no material change will take place in our agriculture by the admission of foreign corn, to state fully the grounds upon which that opinion is founded.
