First Edition, [ii],46pp., title and last leaf a little dusty, disbound. "The quality of sugar formed no just basis for taxation. Such a system was inexpedient because it would encourage the production of low-grade product, particularly in the newly conquered colonies which were capable of supplying an almost unlimited quantity of the superior article. It would be impossible to grade sugars properly into the several classes according to which they would be taxed in the proposal under consideration. There would be much fraud to secure the benefit of low rates. Completely side-steps the great fact that it was not equitable to exact the same duty as formerly when sugar had declined to one-third of its one-time value."?Ragatz, p.281. Copac locates the Bodleian copy only; OCLC adds NHL & INU. Goldsmiths'-Kress no. 19403.3; Sabin,102848
First and only edition, [2], 30pp., stitched as issued in blue paper wrappers, a very good copy. The author argues against putting an additional duty on sugar "which... would be a great hardship on the sugar-planter in the West Indies, and very little benefit to the revenue...". He sets out all the costs involved in producing sugar, such as the price of slaves and the cost of keeping them, the higher freight costs, insurance, cost of animals and contributions to the defence force. Finally, he states the advantages of the sugar trade for Britain and shows how an additional duty would be to the detriment of the trade.

1811L'article 3 semble témoigner du souhait de l'Empereur d'asseoir sa politique de blocus continental (ayant amené comme un des rares bénéfices la culture de la betterave à sucre) sur le patrimoine agricole de l'Ancien Régime. Il est ainsi demandé aux maires un effort de recherche bibliographique, sinon bibliophilique pour se procurer et diffuser le texte de l'Abbé de Commerell « Instructions sur la culture, l'usage et les avantages de la Betterave champêtre »

1779Dans ce numéro, les nouvelles de Londres sont consacrées à la guerre d'Amérique. La Gazette reproduit une requête des planteurs de sucre, propriétaire et négocians présenté au Roi le 16 décembre « au commencement de la malheureuse division entre ce Royaume & les Colonies de l'Amérique septentrionale, les Requerans, (…) représentèrent aux Ministres de V. M. les craintes qu'ils avaient des dangers et des malheurs auxquels les isles à sucre seraient nécessairement exposées (...)ils ont aujourd'hui sujet de regretter, par la perte de la Dominique et par le danger imminent des autres isles, que leurs fréquentes démarches pour obtenir de la protection n'ont pas eu l'effet désiré ; qu'ils sont à présent dans l'état le plus cruel d'incertitude, par le délai du secours envoyé de New-York aux Isles sous le Vent (…) tandis que la Jamaïque a été laissée presque absolument à ses propres efforts,lesquels, vu le petit nombre d'habitans Blancs, sont devenus extrèmement fatiguans » P. 87, une communication du chimiste et futur ministre de l'Intérieur Jacques Antoine Mourgue livre les résultats des Observations météorologiques, agronomiques & physiques, faites à Montpellier & dans les environs, pendant l'année 1778.
