CONTAINING THE FOLLOWING SKETCHES: An extraordinary work: the tales are fully equal to Warren's DIARY OF A PHYSICIAN. Being a Treatise on the circumstances which determine the Rate of Wages and the condition of the Labouring Classes, including an Inquiry into the influence of Combinations. By J. R. M'CULLOCH, Esq., Author of the "Commercial Dictionary." "A careful perusal of this work by both masters and men, will help to clear away many of the errors under which each party labours. It is a cheap book, and therefore not beyond the reach of a working man. Its bulk will not alarm him, and though it demands careful attention in perusal, it will be readily and easily followed by all who will give it something like the same consideration which they frequently bestow on subjects of very inferior importance.”—Times. |
