CURIOUS RESULT OF OUR TAX
LAWS.

The following case of actual and COM
paratively recent experience constitutes
both proof and illustration of the ac-
curacy of this statement: A lady of
western state, for the sake of availing
herself of certain educational advan-
tages, removed to town in Massachu-
sets near Boston, and benefited the
town by building a fine residence there
in. Her property, which was held by
trustee in Indiana, was taxed to him by
reason of his legal holding in that state
The property itself, mainly in another
state, was taxed there, and properly, by
reason of its location; but at the end of
her first years residence the lady was
Mortified to learn that third tax on her
income was demanded of her by the tax
laws of Massachusetts. "And this" the
person communicating these facts adds.
will, if enforced, be a decree Of my
personal Punishment from the state as
effectual as that which the state for
merly launched against Roger Williams
and the Quakers." Can any one doubt
that human nature, as ordinarily consti-
tuted, will protest against, and success
fully evade such laws? Would it not be
well In discussing this subject to men
ton also that it was a question of taxa
ton that gave liberty to the American
colonies, and that the principle that the
people of Boston and their ministers
once mainly relied upon to justify their
destruction of imported tea, which they
regarded as unjustly taxed by even a
small amount was that resistance to
tyranny was obedience to God ?"-David
