THE TAX BILLS.

Mr. firtoGDEN brought up the Report of the
Assessed Tax Composition was read, and
ordered for its further progress on Monday next.
On the third reading of the Lotteries' Bill,
Mr. LYTTLETON took the opportunity- of con.
demning the measure. Notwithstanding Mr.
Wheeler, Sheriff' of Dublin, had been eonriete4
of insurances through the medium of the Little-
Go, he saw his name among the persons licensed
to act as a Lottery Office-keeper. lie thought
tie altancellor of the Exchequer was very much
to blame in countenancing► this insult to society
and.violation of tile law.

CHANCELLoR of the EXCHEQUER replied in
such a low tone, that we regret we could not hear
the:Right Hon. Gentle:l'4n. We svippose he said
something in extenuation of the person men-
tioned, as
Mr. LYTTLRTON rose uP indignantly, And loud-
ly maintained, that Mr. Wheeler was convicted
for keeping a Little•go shop. The lion. Mem-
ber expressed a hope that they would not next
year hear any more of this scandalous Little-gcs
Sheriff.--(Laughter.)
The Bill was then read a third time and passed.
On the Order of the Day for the 1-louse to re-
solve itself into a Committee on the Excite Du-
ties Bill,
The Marquess of TAVISTOCK could not allow such
taxes, and at such a time of distress, to pass, with•
out bestowing on them the condemnation whielt
they deserved. The Noble Marquess thought it nu
proof of the virtue or popularity of the Ministers
that they should carry additional taxes on the
poor by the acclamations of thtir partisans within
these walls. If any Member ventured to state
his opinion in opposition to these taxes, he wee
immediately attempted to be put. down by a refer-
ence to their triumphant majorities in i'nfliameut..

He 'try well ternenibered, that when the Noble
Lord took oil the i'r.'perty and lncomeTaxes, they
ere promi3,d that there would be farther re-
kyour of the people; but instead of that,
thf.y were celled upon to sanction more hurthens-
upon that very people. Why did not Ministers
propose their favourite tax, that on property, in-
stead of further oppressing the poor The reason
was obvious—They were afraid of rarliament-
He
lamented that the House should expose so
the cloven font. He lamented that the
waj.irities of the Ministers al,vays voted for fur-
ther burthens on the poor, rather than consent to
additional duties on themselves. When the peo-
ple sate, that instead of a taitliftil discharge of
their duty, the Members of that House were only
r.itxions to protect themselves against the Yrtsperty
Tax, by imposing new hurthens on the poor, they
would lose that respect for the House which every
true friend of the Constitution wished to maintain.
Unless the 1-louse of Commons were elected by
the free choice of the people—unless the duration
of Parliament were shortened—nnless there were
a elonige of measure; as well as men—he would
;tot vote a single shilling. How happens it then,
that the [loose of Commons and the people were
at such valiance ? Because the latter saw that the
former courrenaneed a system of extravagance
and ptot.ligacy totally contrary to their interest.
Tice people without doors, as well as the Noble
:Marquess and his Friends within, called aloud tar
n re,iuct ion of the establishment, and a relief from
their bort hens. Till there was a serious and de-
termined system of retrenchment and economy,
he oiliected to impose a single stinting on the pen-
rnreidiy ou the poorer classes of society,
already far too heavily oppressed. The Noble
Marquess therefore moved, that the further cone
si;!etztion of the Bill be postponed till this day
cis to cobs.

• „.. .•
The CllANcrt.tott •of the ExcHmoca insisted
ti:at rt,e last Noble -`ipralier was incorrect in his
trsertions when he affirmed that, the additional
lax tell on the poorer classes of the people. The
House trust.be aware that out of the three mil-
liOni imposed by the new. duties, a very trifling
sum fell on the pourer classes of society ; and
.that the chief binthens tell of course on the rich.
With regard to the tax on 'malt, there was no
cause tor a rise on the price of beer, consequently
it would not prove injurious to the poor. Front
the present low price of the raw materials, the
public brewers had no reason for raising the price
or reducing the quality of the beer. From every
consideratioo, he hoped the Hose would now
consent to go into a Committee on the Bill.
Mr. C. CALveaT heard with some degree of
surprise from the Chancellor of the Exchequer,
that the tax on malt would not affect the poor,
but the rich. He (Mr. C.) could easily prove,
that its operation would be the vet y reverse. The
private brewer could provide himself amply With
the raw material, in defiance of any visit trom the
Excise; while the pub!ic brewer must pay the
additional duty of 9s, 4d. over and above the ex-
isting duty. The lion. Member could nor tell
whet) beer would be higher in price ; but, ac-
cording to the price of the raw material, the ope-
rations of the tax would be higher or lower.—
The maitster,however, would be the greatest st.tf-
tercr. In many instances, the new tax would be
his ruip. lit addition to the present, tax of lBs.
lod., the malister would be obliged to pay the
additiol,ll duty of 9s. 4d. and thus would his de-
struction in trade be produced. The Hon. Mem-
ber stated a case of con,dderable hardship
tailor was now in Kingston Jail who had been
security. for a maltater that had failed in business.
That unfortuna:e man, who had been a coMniou
soldier, at no time was worth- 1001-. was called
upon to give a security for 20001. He would
nut say whether the same would or would not be
recovered by Government, but the lion. Member
entreated that the House and Government would
talcs the situation of both the tailor and maltster
into their favonrable consideration.

M. Bs:Neer declared, that the Right Hon.
Chaco!, Ilor of the Exchequer was not correct
when he stated, that as the price of beer could not
rise, the tax would not operate disadvantageously
to the public. In his op pion that•assertion was
erroneous, Were it even -to tall, the difference
between the present price and the fall would be.
all that loss to the public. The Hon. Member
condemned the tax on tea as a necessary of •life,
especially a necessary article to the poor. He
drew a -eicture-of a man, his wife, and seven chil-
dren, sitting down happily to their• tea. Impose
tl►is athlitiond tax, and you take away from the
comfort and enjoyment of the poor people ; you
deprive this .industrious family of one of their chief
domestic blessbegs. He condemned the monopoly
of the East India Company in the article of tea,
to-the ',mount of two millions sterling'; because,
were it not on t I,is account, the people would pro
cure tea at the rate of two millions cheaper than
what could be obtained after the passing of this
tax or bill. The total amount of the sum obtain-
ed by the Eist India Corupany in this article of
tea exceeded five millions. • He:sincerely deplored
the hardships which the poor now a►dured, iude-
peedently of the 'operations of the new taxes.--
Their situation hart been greatly deteriorated since
tire year 1793. Ile believed there WQS no country
in tier world in which so lunch was taken front
the poor. The Hon. Memlier rrprobated the
system of extravagance •and profligacy on the part
of- Govertrn►errt ; anti promised to vote for the
ameudn►eut of Iris Noble Friend.
GHSNFELL affirmed, that be would-not vote
for, but endeavour to stop further the. progress of
the Fax Bina, by supporting the amendment of
Iris Noble Friend. Were the latter lost, he (Mr
G.) should think the measures of Government were
carried by corrupt influence.
Mr. Goucti regretted that the'tax on Malt, as
proposed by Irk Right Hon. Frientr, tile Cl►an-
cellor of the Exchequer, bore so severely on the
landed interest. Ti►e lUght Hon. Ge►efeman had
adopted .and repeated it as a -War Tax. It would
now operate as a direCt war against the agricul-
tural interest. The British farmer was opposed
and depressed in i►is industrious efforts by the
importation of foreign grain. Hie, drew an ana-
logy between the situation of a farmer and-tire
price of a horse ; and concluded by saying, " pro
u pound more on the animal than he is able to
beli, and. you force bin) down to the ground !"
• Mr. PRICE supported the amendment of "his

Noble Fliena (tile Marquess of Tavistock) ; and
recommended the Chancellor of the Exchequer to
give a preference to the Property Tax, instead
of oppre,siug the people by the slew taxes now
proposed.
Lord OdRINGTON Mild not make up his mind
to vote more burthens on the people, already
groaning mle' the pressure of taxation. Hostile
to the principle of the present taxes, he cor-
dially supported the Amendment of his Noble
Friend.

Lord COMPTON thought that some of the ob-
servatiot►s which had fallen from the arntltonen
on the Opposition side came with an dl grace from
them. Were those Gentlemen to come forward
with H MOdifiCar ion of the Property Tax, his Lord-
ship said that he would most cheerfully contribute
his proportion.

Lord A. HAMILTON condemned the measures
of Government. The terms of the Lottery had
been admitted as a Brent outrage of public feel-
ing. His Lordship rtfetred the House to the
distresses of the people. Distress vrAs not con-
fined to Carlisle, but pervaled all the poorer
classes of society, and particularly affected the
agricultural interest. Although he might in some
(levee approve of the plan for keeping a large dis-
posable sum, yet he doubted whether Ministers
would act faithfully to the public-, by cola-ming it
to the intentions of Parliamtnt. But the csta•
blishment of u Sinking Fund was no groomd for
imposing taxes of the nature now condemned.—
His Lordship thOught it incumbent -upon 'him to
at hii ohjectrons to the present taxes, with-
out expressing his hostility to all kinds of taxa-
tion.

Mr. Corte (of Norfolk) opposed any fur ber
hurt hens on. the hour, alreally groaning nivier
their load of taxation. He knew, tliat,_as au oid
Mentner of that House, give the Minister for the
time being moot y, and he mould render no tai!b:
ful account to the public, but apply it for the puK-
poses of corruption.--(No, no,, 110 !-Order,
der, order resounded through the Hoi,se
Notwithstanding the active obedience of the ..kli-
nisterial troops, he should tell them the op,..ra-
donS of his mind and feelings. Some might coo-
sitler the present modeof taxation as a good joke
againit the country. • He did not envy such feel-
ings. He believed that the country had no hove
of salvation, unless through the medium of tiieo-
nial Parliaments.,--(Hear, hear !)--Short Parlia-
ments would be very beneficial to theyeople, mod
very salutary to the Constitution. It was proved
towards the close of every Parliament, when illetti-
bets, in view of their reck6ning to the people, be-
came more zealously attached to the intetests of
their constituents.--(hear, hear, bear !)
Mr. COUCH said, that although he should vote
against the Amendment of the Noble Maripiess,
yet be might oppose some of the taxes. He,
however, 6110Uid not oppose every mode of taxa-
tion.

Lord MILTON would not only vote against the
Malt Tax, but against any additional taxes on the
poor. He would protect the interests of his
con-
stituents by voting against the measures now pro-
posed. After a long and expensive war—ef:er a
war by which the pcOple had manfully sustained
the greatest privations--,th, y were now called
upon, as an act of gratitude to.the people, to vote
for additional burthens. He regretted that tile
Chancellor of the Exchequer bad no other te.sorces
to resort to than to impose new duties on the agri-
cldiural interest, already groaning under their
burthens, and gasping tor breath ►and !
submitted to the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether or not it would be better to leave the
three millions in the pockets of the people, to fruc-
tify and to increase, preparatory to any great
emergency. For these reasons, his Lordship would •
vote for the Amendment.

Mr. T. WILSON assured the House, that he
should vote most conscientiously for the three
millions of taxes, as, absolutely necessary in the
present state of our finun:.7e4. He wished to see
our finances in a commanding state, in order-that
we might not be trampled upon by '-the enemy.—
Ile contended that the Sinking Fond ought not to
pave been touched, ought not to have been re-
duced, below five millions. The'ailoption of the
liroperty 'lax would have been infinitely 'prefer-
able to the proposed taxes. It would be iru
-the burthen on those who bad strength to•bear it,
and prove highly gratifying to the country.—
(Hear, bear !)
Mr. Alderman WarTnidAN entered his protest
against the taxes: Numerous petitions had been
presented against them, particularly one from
London against the three million system. 'lt was
absurd-to suppose that two !pillions nut of the
three could be raised without affecting the public.
Is such a thing practicable ? The Chancellor of
the Exchequer, as a palliative, has brought 'for-
ward a Resolution at the tail of another, pledging
hiinseltand his colleagues to economy. Let the
Chancellor of the Exchequer make the experiment
of one year, to see how he could do by retrench-
ment and economy, instead of the present taxes,
zmil then if he came forward for pecuniary aid, he
would cheerfully afford him his vote. Till he made
such an experiment be would not consent to vote
a single shilling in the shape of taxes.

• Mr. W. LAMB rose to offer his sentiments.--
11c very inuch regretted the unsatisfactory state
of Our finances. It was not, however, the first
time that this country had been in a similar state.
ele referred to the war of succession, the Aroeti-
can war„ and snijie other periods of our history.
In 1784 and 1785, Mr. Fox, whose example he
would always be proud to follow, supported the
taxes, although he condemned ihe conduct of Mi-
:kisters. That great Statesman acted On this
principle, that whatever might_ be the conduct of
Ministers, fahh ought to be kept with tie public
creditor. From every consideration, however, of
the present state of affNirs, he found bitwelf com-
pelled conscientiously to adopt another policy,
without the injury to the public creditor.
The duties now proposed were on the accessary
articles of life ; and their opetJtions,.instend of
producing one grand general effort, wouhi be pro-
ductive of general discontent and diarnay. Ile
recommend-Q(1 the resumption of the Property
Tax to tie amount now wanted, a measure that
would b:!-satioactory. not only to tile public cre-
ditor, bur sat.sf::ctury to do country at larc,c.—

Pot these reasons, be tbonglit lihnseif bound to
vote for the Amendment of his Noble 'friend:
Lord JOHN ItossELL, in coudemnatiOn of the
taxes, particularly the Malt Tax, said] that the
strength of the country depended upon the agri-
cultural and commercial interests, both of t;vhich
would be deeply affected by the additional duties.
He approved of the manly sentiments of his Ho•
nourable Friend, (Mr. Coke, of Norfolk.) His
Lordship referred to the policy of Sir Robert
Walpole. in the times of difficulties, and bestowed
high praise on his penetration and wisdom/. His
L►►rdship went into an ingenious .disquisition of
our financial system, endeavouring to prove
that 'the operations of the Sinking Fund had not
been successful, as we were now .left upwards
of 800,000,0001. irr debt to the public.' The taxes
bore to►o heavily on the poorer classes of the peo-
pie, The Malt Tax would be the means of rais-
ing instead of reducing the price of porter. This
would prove highly injurious to the lower and
middling classes, including also our bold peasan-
try, our country's pride. Fron► every considera-
tion, he should vote for the amendment of his
Noble Fr iend.

Mr. RicARDo vindicated the Sinking Fund Sys-
tem-. When tire Chancellor of the Exchequer
had asked what had become of it ? the anstrer
had been—" It was gone ?" Gone ! Towards
the reduction of the National Debt : it }tad been
the means of paying off two or three hundred
millions, and therefore was so far useful. It
hut been the means of affordin4 us the strength,
energy, and ,ticcess, which had contri-
hu to our glory as a nation. He contended
that we had not had an 'efficient Sinking Fund
during the list war,. He c0.,141 not approve of
Taxes on necessaries—he perfectly concurred

The House having then resolved itself into a
Committee, the clauses were read seriatim.
Ott the clause for extending the additional Malt
duty to ¶hr stock in hand,
Mr. BaaNr.r said, that althongh there were pre-
cedents tot such an extewiion of the measure, yet,
in the present rate of the country, it would he
nwst harsh ant! inexpedient, to impose chilies on
the stock in hand, for it would beTimpOssible that
they should he paid ; but it they were, the tax,
instead o( producing 1,400,900/. as the Right,
Bon. Gentleman had stated, would yield at least
2,000,0001. which would exceed what th'at Right
Hon. Gentleman himself considered necessary.
He wished that the payments should be postponed
to a la!er period than that now proposed, and
cern:Ander! by moving that the part relative to the
stock in hand, he omitted.
After a few' observations froth Mr. C. Calvert,
Mr. Hart Davies, and Mr. Bernell,
TheCHANCELLoa oh -the 14'..1-IEQUER observed,
that the Gentleman who opposed the clathe
fancied that the barley in the -Monsters' 10-inds

used, and that trOw in hand bad ',nen bought

which they enjoyed in 1810 :He
.shonisi
also propose that the duties be paid in distant in-
stalments; the fits t in November, the second in.
January, and the last 'in March, so as to give
every facility to maltsters.
Mr. C. CALVERT contended that by his present
arrangement the Right lion. Gentleman would
levy a much heavier tax upon maltsters than he,
had stated to the House. It might be estimated
at 900,0001. above the 1,400,000/ whiet. he had
