You might take a look at Richard Cantillon's *Essai sur la Nature du  
Commerce en General* (1755), Part I, Chapter VII ("Le travail d'un  
laboureur vaut moins que celui d'un artisan") and Chapter VIII ("Les  
artisans gagnent, les uns plus les autres moins, selon les cas & les  
circonstances differentes"). The Augustus M. Kelley reprint of 1964  
gives both the 'original' French text and the English translation by  
Henry Higgs. 
 
[EDITOR'S NOTE: See message from Tony Brewer for an excerpt from  
Cantillon. --- RBE] 
 
You will also find valuable information in the edition of the Welath  
of Nations as published in *The Glasgow Edition of the Works and  
Correspondence of Adam Smith* (Oxford University Press, 1976;  
also available in the series Liberty Classics, published by the  
Liberty Press, Indianapolis, 1981).
