Agriculture Machine Proposal.

Called upon by his Majesty's paternal wisdom to the conduct
of an establishment equally new, and which has the
fulfillment of a public duty of a still more cogent nature
my first ambition the first effectobject of my ambition is
to enlist myself under your auspicesbanner and to be render
myself an instrument of public beneficence in your
hands.

Other Despotic governments, (and I wish the imputation practice habit
had been always confined to other Governments) have made
a practise a point of taking the management of private economy
out of the hands of individuals and forcing pressing them
down into the adoption of what plans was supposed to be most conducive
to their interest by coercive ties. The culture of
corn has been pronounced by a authority Minister more profitable
for a certain country than that of the vine
and vineyards have been laid waste by the hand ofministerial mandate
power in hopes of the expectation of the harvests crops that were to take their
place. Your mode of assistingoperation private economy
My Lords and Gentlemen is of a very different nature.
In your hands, as in the those hands of the beneficient
Monarch from whom your authority is derived the
power of doing good if happily cleared purified from that of
hurting. If you govern the body of husbandmen of this throughout the country:( and long and happily
may you govern!) it is only the willing that you will
govern, and that in proportion as they are willing.
Your arms are the respect and confidence of the subject are
your only arms: your power has no root but in your wisdom.
