Descrição: The Leeds Mercury and The Leeds Intelligencer are newspaper sources well known to historians studying the political, labour or provincial history of nineteenth-century Britain. In 1833, the whig-liberal Mercury and the tory-radical Intelligencer clashed over parliamentary efforts to introduce new factory regulations for children, and their rivalry has been much commented on, but so far unexamined. This present study illustrates how, in their sparring over factory regulation, the Mercury and the Intelligencer used the Ten Hours Movement and parliamentary affairs as tools for both political and commercial purposes.
