Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thoughts on Population and the Means of Comfortable Subsistence: With Suggestions Regarding an Increased Supply and Lessened Cost of Food for Childhood and the Industrial Classes
In public usefulness, two excellent noblemen of the present day - Lord tbrougham and the Earl of Shaftesbury - occupy the foremost rank. Their efforts, in somewhat different roads, but all tending to the same goal - the promotion of knowledge consecrated to the pursuit of virtue and happiness - have been directed with unwearied zeal, and produced blessed results in much diminished ignorance and crime.
