LONDON, SATURDAY, NOV. 18, 1865.

of The approach of the first session of the new House
Commons naturally gives rise to a good deal of
discussion, and a good many wise suggestions for
improving the conduct of affairs. Now is the time
for theories of all kinds to be put forward, for the
introduction of new schemes and the resuscitation
of old plans, their advoca ces hoping, perhaps, to find
a fresh Parliament more impressible than its prede-
cessors. Parliamentary Reform is by no means the
only direction in which the energies of our amateur
politicians extend, and as there is unfortunately
always " ample room and verge enough" for im-
provement in the best mundane arrangements, they
have scope enough for their ingenuity. Financial
questions come so very closely home to the feelings
and convictions of all of us, that it is not surprising
if the means of raising, and the manner of adminis-
tering the national revenue are brought very fre-
quently under discussion. Taxation of any kind
is
.certainly a very unpleasant thing, but it is a
necessary evil, and if the inhabitants of a new coun-
try have the privilege of making no forced contri-
butions for the public benefit, the residents under
an older system possess pretty substantial advan-
tages in return for the visit of the tax collector.
This estimable and indispensable functionary is
generally a very unwelcome guest, yet there are
persons who would be willing to increase rather
than diminish the amount of his claims on their
purse and patience. A. little brochure entitled
" Direct and Indirect Taxation', which has I
lately appeared, purposing to set forward
the views of a "Liberal Elector," inclines to the
tax collector's side in opposition to the voluntary
contributions we make to the national exchequer I
through the medium of the Customs and Excise
duties. It is somewhat irregular to find a " Liberal
Elector" advocating the abolition of the plait duty,
which is generally supposed to be more particularly
a Conservative measure, yet lie takes for his text a
sentence of Mr. GLADSTONE'S in his speech of 1865,
in -which the Chancellor of the Exchequer declared
