The Power Of Population Is So Superior

The Perpetual Struggle For Room And Food.

The Prodigious Waste Of Human Life Occasioned By This Perpetual Struggle For Room And Food, Was More Than Supplied By The Mighty Power Of Population, Acting, In Some Degree, Unshackled, From The Constant Habit Of Emigration.

Evil Exists In The World Not To Create Despair But Activity.

The Redundant Population, Necessarily Occasioned By The Prevalence Of Early Marriages, Must Be Repressed By Occasional Famines, And By The Custom Of Exposing Children, Which, In Times Of Distress, Is Probably More Frequent Than Is Ever Acknowledged To Europeans.

Population Regulates Itself By The Funds Which Are To Employ It, And Therefore Always Increases Or Diminishes With The Increase Or The Diminution Of Capital. Every Reduction Of Capital Is Therefore Necessarily Followed By A Less Effective Demand For Corn, By A Fall In Price, And By A Diminished Cultivation.
