But in the year 1824 (just ten years after the restoration), the immense supplies of corn from the Black Sea ports N 86 THE HISTORY OF had lowered that commodity to the price of only ten Tuscan lire the sack, after it had fetched a price, six and seven years before, in 1 8 17-18, of between sixty and seventy Tuscan lire the sack. Many of the Tuscan landowners became alarmed, and the question was then mooted whether there ought not to be a sliding scale by which the duty on foreign corn should r...ise with the fall of the market price.
