The power of gold displayed! : In the humane proposal of the Right Hon. William Pitt, chancellor of the Exchequer, to bring forward an act to put His Majesty into the disagreeable situation of signing a decree, that no sick or lame person, in Great Britain, shall have a medicine of repute without paying tribute; which the Writer contends, is not justifiable either by the Law of God, or Man, and is a disgraceful Impost, as it places the Life of a human Being in competition with a Three-Penny or Six-Penny Stamp, &c. By Frs. Spilsbury.
