FINANCE OF THE COUNTRY.

We bad intended to call the attention of our
Readers to sonic of the empirical and dangerous
expedient t 'proposed by ignorant Demagogues, on
'the subject of FINAi3CIV, but the matter is so ably
handled in the ltbrning Post of yesterday, that we
offer no apology tor copying the observation of
that Paper :

" It has been said, that the easi6t part of
'fiance is the increase of taxes ; as certainly, the
easiest pert of patriotism is their abolition. Ott
such terms, any man from Mr. Tierney down- to—
hye, down to----Mr. Brougham, may set up fur a
patriot. It requires no expeuditure of study,. no
acquirement of talent. Bornethin!: more, how-
ever, iS expected from the Statetwan. It is his
duty, not only tO place our taxes where least bar-
ihensenre, but 'so to regulate them, tie neither
their modification nor their repeal shall induce
()Meth of heavier or less equal weight. But tith
all-this• our patriots have no concern and of
_it they , lore no contprehemi or. Yesterday
,the Income Tait Was to be changed fur As-
sessed Taxes ; to-day, the Assessed Taxes are
to be changed Tor an Income Tax.—No matter.
Ever while you live, keep changing 1--t-Change is
novelty, novelty delights the people ; and tt ho
knows tut the novelty may end is the only change
'Njtich our patriots 'wish 3—a change of thernselves
into place and liesvcr. TheY maw tell us that the
Assess,:\l Taxes encourage emigration, and
,drat~
'the I ncoore Tax would .prevent it. Thus have
these ennsisCnt'Gentlemen become in fact the ad.
vocates of the lue.:qtre Tax I, so that if the revival
of that impost is proptd, t!iey will upon their
own principle be bound to s,:‘Pport'it.
Alla surely, the whoie weig:u- of their new

_in this mortal abomination ; yet it is not very ho.

seldom feel it.-;;:Scrjeant Runnhigton would be

may be safe enough in public measures not (4114'0
WO sate perhaps in private specolwions—icapially
,fraudulent' in either. Nothing Were more easy
than to cut into the ibteretst of the Funds ; un-
less, us Lord etlehrane says, the cutting off half
the principal. lout alas ! the dabbling season is
over. The most patriotic of all our hoaxers "maY
find his occupation gone. SPeedies UM) RIOSOIO-.
bons will no more arket the Stocks than posttl

It is rather unfair to look on the Fond Holder
with this evil eye. Though he does not Manually
and visibly work for the interest which-lie-takes
out, he did for the principal which be put
What was purchased by labour, may reasonably
be enjoyed in case. Yet people have got an odd
idea; as if a •liVidenti were ii' downright sinecure,
obtained only for the trouble of walking twice ay
year to the Bank ; instead of being acquired by
the personal fruit or by the inheritance of toil.—
With that dividend the' Stockholder contributes
_to every impost, tithes, poor-ratese assessment:4
custonts,--all, iminetlietely or ultimately, draw
(iiit of it their share ; and the financier who
would treat him as an idle borthen on the Siete',
must he very unwise or very unjust. 'I hat: he
should. be exempted front his equal proportion, no
man will conteed. Bin all buyund is a mplct and
a penalty, inducing an EnlitStlCC to the
therefore a discredit to. the nation ; 'an- httAlstrip
on',the • creditor, therefore a reproach on the
debtor ; nitio,atelv, an iojery to both.
" Still further. The Landholder took his chance.
At one time be received an high interest on hitt
capital ; at anather time he must be contented to
receiver a. lower. He who.; has enjoyed 10 per
y sornetinies be satisfied with 2 tool it
halt bet he who _call eeeer receive more titan 5
per cent. faiwild never receive lees. Iligh hazard
eennot,possess Certainty ; low certainty must not
incur hazard. This is plain equity. UI the ge-t
octal Taxation, let, the'rnothrOltier.pity his tbare4
but let hint not be called to unike good the loss
upon coutingencies whereof he could not . have
shared. the-gain. This also is plain equity, While
you ruts you may reed it. Blindness alone can
pens it, by. .
"! Oh these terms, the Fitmiholder will not ob-
ject to an Income Tax. Were it e%tended
fair proportion, to the superseding of all Other
assessments, the baneful system of emigration
would subside. An Absentee Tax would vanquish
it altogether. It-is an evil spirit, which We need.
not consign trethe Red Sea., Oar Legislattatt Cott~
