Excerpt from Systems of Land Tenure in Various Countries: A Series of Essays Published Under the Sanction of the Cobden Club
Mr. Gladstones suggestion, contained in the accompanying letter, by at once publishing a new edition of the Systems of Land Tenure in Various Countries. The Committee have to regret the death of three of their original contributors, Mr. Wren Hoskyns, Dr. Julius Faucher, and Mr. C.M. Fisher, whose essays have therefore been re-published just as they were written. Ill-health has unfortunately prevented Mr. Cliffe Leslie from bringing up the facts contained in his essay on the French Land System to the present time, but it remains substantially a fair description of that system, though in arrear ot the statistics now attainable. The essays of Judge Longfield, Sir George Campbell, and Mr. Brodrick have been carefully revised, and have had additions made to them, by their respective authors. Mr. Morier sAgrarian Legislation of Prussia has been supplemented by the publication of his Report on the Tenure of Land in the Grand Duchy of Hesse, sent to the Foreign Office in 1870. A classified Index, which will be found at the end of the volume, has been added to the present edition. The Committee of the Cobden Club hope and believe that this new edition of their volume on Land Tenure will be of real service to all who are interested in this important question, which is occupying more and more the attention of the whole country. J.W. Probyn. March, 1881.
