The general p rices of a cou •,‘ .., I try must hear a proportion to the amou nt of . the whoa ..

It I C ' very clear, I think, that. if the tra nsactions he to t ~• i , amount of a hundred pounds, they m ost re q uire , 1 ' , greeter quantity of currency (general prices being t ; same), than if the traNsactions of the country amou nt • la, to only ninety pounds. Now, observe, then, the tat il l ' are four times as great in a mount :is they were in 17. - Taxes are wholly pecuniary transactions; they regal 3 ' : •. 11 portion of the currency to carry them on ; and, course, the present taxes withdraw Cram the emplc silent in other transactions a considerable portion of t '. 1 . 4 present currency; at least, they wi;Mlra w in that W four times as much as they (1;41 in the year 17 92 ; I , ' • that, that which they tell its a'iont the quantity of c I culttlng medium that they have out, amounts to just I • i thing at all; unless it be this, that they have on', tat , • than they are likely to keep out ; StriOg' that • at c • very moment, the gold is going oat of the coantry, a . . seeing that to keep any of it here more of the pal must be drawn in.—We have nothing, therefore, in a 11. t ,, , 11 '' • 1 , thing that these persons advance, to induce us to pect a rise of prices. And it is roanife it to me that farmers ought. and as quickly as possilil, ' to diseact a, bee themselves of what toast eventually be their re A . :, t Kent, however, is not the only thing to which th e 1 .'. I:. 111 I 'writes to look. The tythea form a very considers portion of bis outgoings; and,as I lave shown in • rec publication addressed to the fa ewer's wi ves,t he parson I receives not only a tenth of the crop,bnt a tenth of the ti • . 1 expended to get the crop; so that he receives his tland[tax.fr. ; and has a decided advantage over the land [ If the present thing could go on to its utmost est the p arsons would still be cluing very weil, a long I after the landlords would be in the poor-house; 1 1.:1'; though, considering what has been the conduct of greater part of the landlords, we might be dispose 1. . 1 care very little about this; still it would be a result little consonant with justice; seeing that the war, ov 1 . lass been the occasion of those enormous taxes w are now producing all the evils of the country, was i small degree the work of the clergy themselves. It ' . 1 a war, we were told ten thousand times over, for i r 4 .! , " ., 1 '• Holy Religion." No one can deny this; it wa s Peeled in the Parliament, in the King's proclaim 1 . ; I from the bench, from the pulpit, and at every cur thou festival, till it almost became a crime to daub fact. Now, gentlemen, there are few of us, per 't . THE STA TE.S4I AN. who 'meld not &meow swords in the cause of religion, if we mestibe made to understand how the cause of re• liejon eau be emeistee by sine !a scot reme ler anti ball. that how stantle,the cave. The French people, eellett and ground down fee wee by insolent petty 'Trani. called seigneurs, whe had the ',weer of hanging sit men without judge or jury, and of sending them to te e gal ' kis for killing a partrider or a hare; the French pen ple compelted not only to pay a homier(' foll in lex for their salt. but cumpelleml also to use, on pain of whipping sad imprisonment, a medals quantity of sett in a year in each family ; the French people. at and turniehted by en insolest aristocracy said lazy, gormandizing anti profligate fraternities of priests. at last rose upon their 01.1 government; and mine of their first acts was the an saki/anon of Whey. Thin it was that the French Revo lotion became Su 41ervable! Then it wait that war leo cattle necessary for the preservation of what was Ides- Wee:noes!, called our Holy Religion! Not a word was :meld about making war to preeercc tether. Not a word was laid about this ; het, as to go to oar, as to nee broad sword*, pistols, ant other weapons against a disireliet in the Gospel, seems so very unnatural a way of going. to work, is it very wonnishing if there were men. who saw the clergy the mast zealous in urging on the war, which they were, from the beginuing to the very close of it ; is it astoniehing, irthere were men who seemed to believe that the pr tion of tythes ought to have been sub meituted for the preservation of religion as the motive fur the enteriae upon that war, of which we are now feeling the consequences ?—lt seems to be rather unfair, there fore, that the parson shneld he now rezeiving his income tee free, while it must he evident to every rational man that the landlord will shortly be receiving no income at all. But. this is not so much a matter of ours ; it is a question between landlord and parson, thus far; and what I wish you to keep in view is, the question between the farmer and the larellorml—That the taxes are the cause of the distress is titer a . pretty general opinion. It is the decided opinion of le;ru Gime and Lott! KING ; and I have no hesitation to say, that, as far as I am able to judge, they are better authority than all the rest of the two Houses pot together. I think it has been clearly proved by myself that the taxes are the cause of the dis tress; and, as the landlords have the power of reducing the taxes, if the boatmen renain it is bar jest that they should bear it. Mr. WoJeitouse seems satietied with the shilling a bushel taken MI the tax on malt. it Mr. IVollehouse, then, bear the reinaihder of the taxes. If be will make no exertions to obtain the only relief that can be given, let him not endeavour to get from the farmer that capital which is 'all lie pos sesses in the world. There have been enough of the landlords to talk with great led Iness, out of doors; but in doors they have been as gentle as doves. Be the consequences on them, therefore, aid not upon the families of the farmers. The fact is, however, that they do not wish the consequences tobe on them. They wish to get rents; much higher rents than in 171e2.—' Thoiteh the prices at this moment are far below those of 1792, and thoagh the texes at:: four times as great as io 1792. Tow wish thefarmer to become a lower sun of e erenn. They wish him to live with more frugality; to come down and to save nut of himself and his family far the purpose tvf paying them. That 11.11 of Fare ; that Ita•.k . aglra.a Bill ri Fare, which you have very judici misty toasted as a warning to English farmers, may very fairly IP' considered as the scale to which the landlord: wish to reduce you. The noble person who has favoured the cournittreey pith t :ISt snit must be looked up to as very competent authority in the rase. Had he been born a [/eke. indeed, we might no: hare been dieeused to pay so much atteption to his scale; bet, having re cently been wide a Duke, we meet look upon leer as a person in whose wisdom the leingho ministers have sery great confidence. We must suppose that his opihions as to all pablis matters are to accordance with theirs; be. ing then told by this noble person that one pound of -NI sneer is the quantity 'efficient for a week in the te nsity of a farm of fear hundred acres, we have before as a very good standard. whereby to lattge the depth of de gradation to which the fernier, meet expect to fall anti iu wheel they are expected to he ',emeriti-A. This two ounces an.! chuust a quarter of red sugar a 'lay ought never to he fur one mouseut abs.mt from the mine of ate: one single farmer in Eneletel. Ile ought to think of it every time that rent comes athwart hie mind ; an t. let bins remember that even lower than this will be his state if be continue to pay rent for any considerable time longer.—The lowering of rents is one of the means by which the farmers have been led on to their ruin. As a sharper lets the inexperienced gamester win now anti then a trick till the former comes and sweep" away his last so the crafty landlord eutices on time farmer till he has cot the po , er of distraint, and then lie comes sad leaves hint without even bread to put in his month.— There is a noble exception is Lord Fiturilliam, who rave up furry-live per cent. at once; but, even that no ble lord will very soon see that his generosity; or, ra ther his justice, will be wholly unavailing without a te e:teflon tit the taxes.—Tile Duke of Bnekingitam; whose bill of Fare we have dane ourselves the honour to toast, has recently 114.1 a meeting of his tenants at his great mansion of Stowe in Buckinghamshire, where hes told them that be and they most stand or fall together; I have noticed this elsewhere; but I will again say, that that farmer most be a very great fool, who will have any share in the felling. The landlord has the power, if he had the will, to save himself; but if he will not min that. is the fernier hound to fall with him. The language of such landlords is plaiuly this; "you keep pay "in nit rent, till you are a beggar, and then we will " fall together." Nn, no:" I shuttle say; " I will " keep what I have got ; you have the power to stand if " you will. and to enable me to stand too; and if you " will not do this, fall by yourself, for I am sore IL will " not fall with you."—tientleureu, it being so clear that the landlord must finally lose his estate, unless the taxes he very greatly reduced, one naturally wonders why the landlords do not cause sects redaction. Pretty eenerally speaking they went to London, at the heeinning of the wiuter with the resolution of causing taxes to lw reduced. But, they were speedily talks t over. %%aeons means any have been employed to nulli fy their previous resolutions; bat the main eremement, be you assured, has been this ; that, to enfeeble the exe cutive government must be productive of a state of things which would give the common people great power in the electing of Members of Parliament ; and that this power wonl.l bring flown the landlords and their families from that state of loftiness, that species of imperial sway in which they have long lived- In short. that every thing mint go on as it is going on, or that there must be a Reform of the Parliament. This ii the argument which has, I am quite cenvinced. induced the landlords to give up their resolutions and to try time and patience a little longer. Hence it is clear that we have nn Referm of Parkament to expect as long as rents can he extracted from the capi• e ml of the farmer; and, am very much afraid that. in too many cases, they will he extrae•ed as long as there is any capital left. Mr. Webhe Hail now set's this, too; fee he, who has gives the farmers so much bad advice. is now giving them the advice which I have so lone been giving! From his presidential chair at Hen d erson's - Hotel, this mighty 1 king of clubs has sent a circular to his affiliated associ ations. In this circular, which lie directs not to be put stn print, and which, therefore, 1 have net yet caused to he printed, be advisee them to give notices to quit in whole bodies; by whole districts; but, at the sante time, being a very loyal man, and a strict observer of the laws, lie advises them to take special care nut to coustnit the crime of illegal cotubinetion or conspiracy ! approve very much of this advice; but, this advice from Mr. Hall comes rather late; and, if it bad nut been -ices re aatv that cunt the re a tho for his trickery and enlace. y, thousands of farmer' •0 the taxmatherer.
