Abstract:
It is the plain duty of every subject of this great empire to contribute
any information or suggestion that he may deem of use
towards sustaining the contest in which we are now engaged.
In discharging this duty, I do not propose to attempt giving suggestions
as to military operations, of which I have had no experience,
I am quite content to leave these to Lord Raglan and his brave
generals; but it is for those who stay at home to bear their share of
the contest, in the shape of taxation to defray the expenses of the
war; and I propose to direct your attention to some considerations
which have an important bearing on the decision of the question ?
how the requisite funds can best be raised?
