In die stamps, however, the Floe. Gentleman has
discovered an extienditure of i 30,0001. whilst, in
his opiction, the rn Magement and'colledion or that

Hon. Gentleman.-- The 11.L.venue of Stampa amounts
at present to near 5,000,0001. The use of them is
beCtitne tircessary in almost all the iransaetions of
life ; and conseqth-ntly distributors are requited in
et,ery part of the kingdom. In the cour,e of last.

twit, wuuid accept the appointment.? All the other
. salaries are nearly in the same proportion, and I have
• no scruple to say, that nut only justice to individuals,
but the public interest, requties that they should be
raised, it' the public expect efficiency and fidelity in

therefore be prepared ler an augmentation of charge

With revect the colledion of the land and as-
sessed taxes, the, I-I.ln. Gentleman is not mere fortu-
nate iu his Quservadons. The poutidage allowed to

itii•ces are-. probably arrears due by the reapeaive
parishes oti their several aiseonnents. In some in
a.utees, a detty 0( payment.. is unavoidable, unless
the'conettieeteieo in. whom is vested the power of,
ettiereitt it, should resort to measures of extreme
severity but as Gevernmentr cannot irttedere. with

ther to our thanks tar their gratuirons services and
iti aid of the efficient; colieetion of the taxes;;
than to coiskire fair occasional indulgence to parties
w ho, tretvea temporary pressure, may be somewhat

at•rear. •
The Hon, Geuflanum has correaly stated) from
the ontittal printed account, that the total charge for
coth4iion and 'management of the revenue, is
; but llC:tharding, to yvhat calculation 3 to
a,soilies that 1,00.0,,k0 might by saved in this
01,41.,,.e, I atu at a lash tocohjekture. It is true:that
the Hun.Gentlematt states,:that the revenue might be
ec,;l4.ted at the rate of, three per cent. tripeactof 41.
tbct? present; rate.
,Here again ,we have no-,
t !nog ut.,t the bate Jiiertion of the Hon. Gentleman.
Jnit Its well might be have said two per cent.. -or
et t.. 0 any lower rate; in pbint of reason, one aRSCr.
1.3,)11 ar, good as the other—lntti for any' purpose of

.

mpression out of doors (fur I cannot 'beliebe seelee
mode of argument will have any weight here), thet •
a settler). which promises the largest saving would •
probably best serve the Hon. Gentleman's views of
Atelimn; The Hon. Getitleman has diecovered,.
that in Scotland the rate of menagemeet
and colleelion is higher than in' England ; and he at
once conclude; that the difference gruws out of some i
abuse. In this he betrays his total ignotance of the.
,eubjeet. How can he suppose, that in one part of
the country,' poaand thinly peopled, a small rove.
nue can be colleiaed at the tame rate as Muck
Target sum is in another part of
,the `Country,, of a,
totally different descriptien ? Does the Hon. ,Geere
idea= ..stypiise that the revenue of a Welch county
or a Highland' dietria, for instence, is colleded at
the same Yawns that of Middlesex' ?. • I
I cannot quit thi„,oert of the subjea without ob-,
:serving that the Hen Gentleman appears- altogether
to forget, that this' sum of ee300,000, stated to be
• the charge for the management of the revenue, - in-
cludeS many fierVices and expellees which do not be-
long-properly to' the mere colledion of the taxes,,,
For instance, the Whole establislithent and expetices
of the Post-Office; which its Gee. view, ought to be
considered rather 'as 'ad undertaking of the first ha-,
penance to the comforts and interest of every
class of society, paid for by every man in prupor.
lion to the- use and advantages 'he derives from n,
and leiwing a, profit to the estate by which it; ,
,carried on, than as a' mere tax. with which, as such,
,we have nothing tado bolo -impose and• lesy it at
'he cheapest rate we.can. in the customs, too, it'
great part of the esteblisliment is framed, and of S he
expence incurred, not so much for the collethon of •
Revenue as for the enforcement of our Islevigatien
Lae*, and of .the system of our colonial 'lrede, • •

Iu itie,coursenfhisstaternent the Ham, csernslensan

system of economy of tfeeiste4dmisters: A con.pa-
rison of the expenditure of the Army, during the
fear they were it) office with' that pt diciest year
afforded hint the 'first opportunity. In making 'leis'
comparison, hOkidevur, the Hoe. Geetle,poti torgoi
state, that With. the increase of eXPettee, the ten&
'nom* of the army had also •prOportioliebly
ire-
creased, and that the anieont of farce emelt)) ed

might be the Merit of ecetiotey in a preeeding Ae toe-
,nistration, the present one is not to be blamed' as
•wanting in this respect, unless it can he shewn that
'it was unwise to augment our ItegularArtny, and
impolitic to employ a considerable part of it in attive
operation* against the Enemy. The other "
however, the Hon. Gentleman thinks. cenclusise.
During the reign of these ecenomecal Miiiiaiers he
says; the charge of mauageteetit and teolleci inn was
only 41. ss. per cent. aua 'it is- 110%1/4' .4L 123. 9d. an
.increale in iliesharge of collesiion to the amoulit
o,ooolebrouglit nit by. the pioeleien of the pre-
sent Government. If the Hun. Gen Leman-bard been
better. itifornied en eubj4o, he would. have been
obliged' •te achuit that, thin increase of charge was ;
owing to very differeut caulu.b, When the present
Board of Treautpry came, 'into office' they, found.
among ocher legacies lest to them by their predecep•
set's, a very Jetailod report from the Board•of •
Excise of are whole of their establishmeift. By this
document it appeared that the salaries of the Excise
Officeis had not been raised for a great number of
years, and that they were then fiscally inederenate
their support. , The Commissioners of Excise re.
presented,' in the most tinivilele terms the', absolute
necessity of increasing these salaries, as the only
means,.of securing Oee revenue, by placing therOffi-
cers above. corruption ; and that, if the augnietita.
tion was any longer delayed, a general system of lax.:
'icy, and a Sepeedalice on. the parties whom they
were appointed to survey, for loans of money, or as.
sistance of some description, would be the inevita.
ble result. With this .representation,. in which the
Commissioners who made it had no personal inte-
rest, as their'salaries were not raised—with the ex.
ample of Ireland, of which we have 'heard. so much
lately, before oureyea, with. a revenue of 20
mil-
lions, and a system of collodion, hitherto reinarka.
We for its regularity and purity, at ,stake, and with
such afolcible appeal from the Officers themselves •
to the justice of the Treasury, could wtb,-Iresitate in
acceding to the proposed augmentation of their sae
laries.? It was granted,. and though upon an aver-
age, it did not 'exceed 151. tri each officer, the ag-
gregate increase of charge was considerably more -
titan 100,00 oh aeyeatee
Another great, but' unavoidable augneentetion in •
the charge of colleaion, arises from the abolition of
fees in the Customs. To the Officers who: have
-theme received their remuneration ift this--shape,
fixed salaries, are now allotted, payable out of , the
Revenue, The.a pparen t increase of charge ariei ogfrocn-
this alteratioe is very considerable, which, in point of
fa CI, the officers receive less new than they/ did be-
fore'; and though this is' not riteopportnnity for goe
'ingot large into the subje6t, I have no hesitation in
stating to the House', that both the revenue and the
public have received.greavbenetit and accorntnoda-
tion from this salutary regulation.
Theses two circumstances of an increase of salary
to the Officers of Excise,
.and of the abolition of fees-
iu the Chstentee would alone account forai, augmeti.'
• tation of charge exceedieg ene,oooleper annum ; and
if the inclease of, charge,upon -the, whole collection
is not more considerable within these last two yea,*
it is owing to reforms and retrenchments which have
been made in other branches, such as the reduatiou
of pouhdege in the Office tat Taxes, and the aboli
tion of icertain offices in 'the CUstorns and other
branchis, the continuance at which was facia to
be unnecessary. Two, other savings which the.
Hob,. Gentleman has proposed, remain to be shortly,
noticed. The first is of a very singular description, .
nothing:less than the, abolition of the Board of Aue
ditors) and all Cometelailons for examining and etat-
ihg the public accounts-of the kingdom. The Hon.
Gentleman proposes that this serviee should be' per--
formed by ComMitteel of this House. Ektrava-
gent as this idea tnust, appear, I cannot give the Hon.
Gentleman credit for being the first to seggest it.
I have seen it brought• forward elsewhere, but, as
it appeared to me, nut so much with a view
..te any

t. resolt as with a design,. in.'whichl am sure
tt.e lion. et entleman does not partake, of calutuni-
atiog this House. In .the hands of others it has been
used as a pretence far vilifying the Members of this
House, for accusing them of indifference to the
public expenditure, and of negleB of duty, as the
trustees•of the people, for not looking into their ac-
cpunts. Such imputations, for aught.' know, may
answer the purpose of those who. are aiming at Re-
form, by working upon the pasiions of the people,
and the prejudices of the iguoraut; but I am con-:
viueed that there is nut one Gentleman in this:
Houser, ,or one rational titan in the country, the.
Hotir4ahle Gentleman excepted, who can be of
opinion, that the public accounts can. be effeau-'
ally,mointued by, Committees of this House. The
ttee.&!trar:r duties which are, already ion posed . upon.'
Meransa of Parliament, bo!li in the House and in its,
Coninuttees, are of themselves sufficient to occupy
their time. But I do not rest my obje6tion upon
this. The examination of long, complioated, and its-•,
trielte accounts,
ilAyetrit questions respeding the;
rates.ot exchange,. the value of foreign money, and a
•thousand Other chtliettlt points, is, in itself a science
.requiring the; onioterrupteci attention of t he Auditurs,
and of stile accountants, and experienced clerks 'un-:

The amount of our public taxes, and the mode o(
collecting them, having been brougbt under the conl
sicieration of the House by the Speech of. the BOn..
Gentleman, I trust I shall by excused fortaking this
opportunity of stating my entire concurrence in the
view taken of our situation in this respea, as stated
by a Right Honourable Gentleman (Mi. 'Windham)
ie the course of the. present Session. I agree with
him, that great as is the amount of 'our present taxes,
it is certainly not greater, in proportion to the means
of the country to bear the burden, than, in any for,
naer war whilst in every other rasped our situation:
,iii infinitely more satisfactory. lam aware that the
sem levied annually upon thy people of this country,.
hi now three times as great -as it W2s in the year
1793 t and though this weight of taxation is Severely
felt by some classes, , and especially by those who
possess only unitnprovable fixed jimmies, a circum-
stance greatly to be regretted, .Tmaintain that upon.
the whPle, the present generation of the people of.
England, considered as a nation, have more means
of procuring to themselves the enjoyments of life then
any of their predecessors ; • t hat, in point of fade we
far every part of the country, a greeter
oegrie, leXury, and a greater share of colutilt
than at anyfortner 'eeried ; and that there is no cor-
net
of the kiugdoru in win.;ll, so far f'rom there ex-
-4004 any syniptOties of detericra4w or'decay, we
lava not seep, within these last 2n years, the most.
hulittittit,u)6, of improvement an improve-
ment, hOwever retarded by continued war and in-
creasing burthena„ still progressive, and adding,every
'year, more or leas, to the stock el. national wealth-.
and public prosperity. The actual aunt levied upon
the,people of this country,, in proportion to the po-
pulation, is, I admit,'greater thati any'titlfer country
of Europe ; but, notwithstanding this.chturostance, I
am fully convinced that there is no great nation on
the Continent iu which the taxes are so lightly, felt,
and collected wit h soyittle of oppression and vexation
as in this country. .This observation is drawn front.
roe, not I,sy anything that has beers said by the Hon.
Gentletnan, bet it is certainly pot altogether fo---
reign to the subject, and will nut, I trust, be deemed'
misplaced by., the House as I perceive, that out of
doors, persons professing to bellie zealous co.-opera-
tors of the, Hon. Gentleman in schemes of Parliatnen
tart' Reform, are using every endeavour to iuculcate
4., belief that in France at least Elie taxes are few and
light, and colle4ed in the moat.genlle and lentent:
manner. Are those who would deletle and tleeeiy.o:
the people of this country by such statements, aware
that in .France, in addition to that most dreadful.,of
all taxes -and all oppressions, the military conscrip-.
Oen, and to'a thousand other arbitrary and vexatious
exactions,, persnhal and pecuniary, the land-tax
alone frecluently exceeds one-1)411'0f the rent---that'
