S3V0054P0_9993 | In consequence English merchants bought large quantities in the Neapolitan markets, but as the supply in that country was only limited, it raised the price there very considerably, and the consequence was the king of Naples prohibited the exportation of any corn from his dominions; thus inflicting a double loss on the merchants, first, of the profits which they anticipated realizing on its importation into this country; and next, as this quantity was suddenly thrown upon the Neapolitan market, a great fall immediately took place, and an actual loss to the speculators was the consequence. | 1840 | null | 46,139 |

S3V0058P0_6623 | Far be it from me, Sir, to undervalue his statements on that subject, or extenuate the impression he desired to make on the House—far be it from me, Sir, to attempt to interpose, by word or deed, between mercantile enterprise and any new channels which her Majesty's Government see fit to open to it. | 1840 | null | 115,635 |

S3V0344P0_17420 | , I would say, impudently—adopt the principle which they attempted to force upon us in 1888, and introduce it into their Budget scheme as if it were some small matter of detail. | 1890 | 1890-05-15 | 108,717 |
S3V0322P0_26399 | He did not consider that number an unreasonable one, as the Members of the Government were always over 30 in number, and, therefore, to have 150 present only meant that 120 independent Members should come down to support the Government. | 1880 | null | 1,373,616 |

S3V0256P0_19292 | If it is to be done before any actual measure, it must be done before any step is taken that can lead to those actual measures. | 1880 | null | 115,165 |
S4V0002P0_21024 | The second plea, however, is a perfectly legitimate one for Mr. Hastings to submit to the judgment of the House. | 1890 | 1892-03-21 | 314,790 |

S3V0342P0_4503 | Now, I do not feel unkindly towards the Commissioners, I do not say one word with the view of impugning the high character and honour of the three Judges selected, but having the whole Judicial Bench of England as a jury panel, you selected, three who, from their antecedents, would have a bias against Irish Members, and you gave us no choice. | 1890 | 1890-03-05 | 34,183 |
