gaged, aud ~vinch time expires, agreeably to the- Act, on the

That the lohabitants.of this Ward have reason to be under
serious.apprehetision. of au intention on t he. part v£his Ma-
jesty's .I,iiiisters to continue or modify the Tex upon Income,
in violation of that faith that subsists between his Majesty's
Governmentjand the Public.; and thereby-to hazard the future
peace and tranquillity of the colintry.-

portion of tile, burthens that were necessary for carrying on
the lons and arduous war with France, whirls has so,
tu-
rieasly terminated; and although the Property has hi-
therto .seen patiently.borne, on account of• thu great aid
vt
afforded tp the-Government to prosecute the contest- with
SSLCSa s,, at the sjrre time, its principle never npproved
or,' it being partial;oppressive, mid inquisitoriabin its opera-
tion, furnishing as-it does an inducement- to perjury; thereby
diminiThing the,sauttity aim oath. •
That air attempt therefore to renew or modify, under any
cirenntstunc:•s, so unjuq and oppressive in its prin-
ciple, is Lighly impolitic, as tending to anuiiiiiate the faith
