income of the Proprietor, but concealing the payment of said
innedit.:s, 'hulk it necessary to state, that no annuity or intere it
of money charged on any Estate in his Majesty's Foreign Domi-
nions ought to be deducted from the Estimate of Profits, but
ought to be i.scluded therein as part of the profits of the Estate,'
payable to the Annuitants ; and that the Proprietors or their
Agents are recortively liable to the duty to be ehA:zed thereon ;
and that, in all case>, where, after payment of such iinnuities,
no
profit would remain to be accounted for by the Proprietors or
their Agents, they are bound to return the amount of such An-
nuities and to be charged for them; in all-which cases the Pro-
prietors or their Agents respectively are to deduct from the re-
spective Annuitants their proportion of the duty so charged in
respect thereof. By °ra-r of the Board,

Such an undertaking must neccsauriiy have our hearty good wishes
for its success.—Bric. Crit. 1807.
