L'article 3 semble témoigner du souhait de l'Empereur d'asseoir sa politique de blocus continental (ayant amené comme un des rares bénéfices la culture de la betterave à sucre) sur le patrimoine agricole de l'Ancien Régime. Il est ainsi demandé aux maires un effort de recherche bibliographique, sinon bibliophilique pour se procurer et diffuser le texte de l'Abbé de Commerell « Instructions sur la culture, l'usage et les avantages de la Betterave champêtre »

First Edition, [ii],46pp., title and last leaf a little dusty, disbound. "The quality of sugar formed no just basis for taxation. Such a system was inexpedient because it would encourage the production of low-grade product, particularly in the newly conquered colonies which were capable of supplying an almost unlimited quantity of the superior article. It would be impossible to grade sugars properly into the several classes according to which they would be taxed in the proposal under consideration. There would be much fraud to secure the benefit of low rates. Completely side-steps the great fact that it was not equitable to exact the same duty as formerly when sugar had declined to one-third of its one-time value."?Ragatz, p.281.

First and only edition, [2], 30pp., stitched as issued in blue paper wrappers, a very good copy. The author argues against putting an additional duty on sugar "which... would be a great hardship on the sugar-planter in the West Indies, and very little benefit to the revenue...". He sets out all the costs involved in producing sugar, such as the price of slaves and the cost of keeping them, the higher freight costs, insurance, cost of animals and contributions to the defence force. Finally, he states the advantages of the sugar trade for Britain and shows how an additional duty would be to the detriment of the trade.
