Note A3-2-5 — Chapter III
John J. (John Joseph) Lalor translation
As to how, by means of German drawbacks (Rückzölle) it is possible for beet-sugar to be offered at a cheaper rate in Brazil than home cane-sugar, see Wappäus, Brazilien, 1830. The French export-premiums for sugar amounted, in 1856, to over 8,000,000 francs. Frenchmen subject to taxation were obliged to pay this amount, and thus add to the already increasing price which they had to pay for that article. (Journ. des Econom., Juill., 1857.) In England, in 1742, the export-premiums for linen were defrayed by enhanced entry-duties on cambrics. (15 and 16 George II., c. 29.)
