ABSTRACT
To the new and extraordinary effects produced by the introduction of improved scientific power into the manufactures of Europe and America; and which has already materially affected the value of labour in these countries, and the health, comfort, and happiness of the working classes employed in manufactures. Under these circumstances, which the reader Memorialist is aware are not of an ordinary nature, he proposes that the Allied Powers assembled in Congress should appoint a commission to examine, the effects produced at New Lanark by a very partial and defective application to practice of the principles which he recommends. Memorialist submits the preliminary explanations to satisfy Congress that he has had much experience on these subjects, and that he understands them thoroughly to their foundation.
