In England, the price of cattle, it has already been observed,

seems, in the neighbourhood of London, to have got to this height

about the beginning of the last century; but it was much later,

probably, before it got through the greater part of the remoter

counties, in some of which, perhaps, it may scarce yet have got

to it. Of all the different substances, however, which compose

this second sort of rude produce, cattle is, perhaps, that of

which the price, in the progress of improvement, rises first to

this height.
