Abstract
WHEN Mr. Gladstone, some years ago, inaugurated a new era, and opened British ports to wine which could not be brought here previously on account of its value being actually less than the duty it was subject to equally with wine of the most costly sort, it was believed by many that a serious blow had been dealt against a branch of home industry—the production of malt liquor—which is probably more peculiar to this country than any other.
