Sallee it to 'say on ha subject; that they reviled the Tax. in 1799 when out at powet, and in 1805, when in p o wer, they doubled it ! And not only did thry double it as 'a War Measure, but they piliposttl to pledge it for e tifty-six millions of 'War Ex petoditufe to be paid during the ensuing Veiice, iLould the war be prolonged beyoua seven years. This proposition was not indeca carried into ace, (tor it MIS thought preferable to funchhe fii,.ty-six, millions and augment our Taxei to Pay. the interest), but the hare mention of the scheme proves most decidedly that these Ministers did not shriAk'frurt the contemplation of entailing this Tar upon the People for flee years after the conclu sion I'4=e, at its mar . imam produce at ten per • 4 ' cent.

A.

'faking a genital view Of the hearings,Of this Tax , , I am indtteed to offer a remark or two on the result of thisiurrey,which may possibly tend to spew, that though it presses hardiy and unequally in many . inmances, the general( distress and pressure occasioned by it cannot by any means he' so hens as is Commonly Supposed. Perh,Ts it will astonish many of your, readers to he info, meal, that, if three•fourths 'of the po pulation of t.ireat. Britain had not one sixpence of income from any source whatever, .and the othor fourth had no more than a miserable pittance of forty pounds a-year —yet this remaining fourth, thus 1‘ passing rich," would positively pay the present amount of the Property Tax, if assessed at *duty of 101: per cent. on the amount of their Incomes ! That this is really the fact, I need only state that the Property Tax now yields about 12 millions per annum. ,The population being,also about 12 millions of souls, the average payment of the Tax is one pound from every person, which being al,lO pef cent., supposes each person to , possess an income of 'lO/. per annum. Now supposing that 9 u,illirnts of the people are women, -chil dren, exc. possessing no income at all, and con -sequently not assessable, it. is evident that the other 3 millions, possessing an income of 401. a yer cite!), Will, at 10 per cent. yay a ditty of 12 millions annually l ,So that ,if the Property Tax be , eonsidered as :my standard whereby to estimate the amount of property and incomes, the whole boasted riches of this great and flourishing nation, arising from funds, agriculture, commerce, pro-. fessions,- and ertiployments, will amount, when .distriltUted, to only 101. 0-year, to one fourth of the populatlon ! - 1 wonder that .11tave not seen this fact - publiely stated,...hecanse'l conceive it nrelents an tindenl 7 able proof;that it' a regular and equal assessment could be I+4' ade (tvltielt experincein.ighi possibly teach us how to accomplish), i or .if people had .cottunott honesty enough to assess themselves fairly A the Tax would be productive without being oppressive, anti the present opposers of the 51. per cent, proposal fi I 1 trust, be EiStlallleti to raise so lout) and unceasing a ciamourotgainst a Tale so , politie, and (if TaXes are necessary, 1 Must add) so tlesi;able, ' I am, your obedient Servant,' Salisbury, March 7, ►yIS.
