To the Editor of thtWtig i It i- proposed by"the Secretary of thf Treasury to tax farmers in money oo their whole property and also to continue the tithe tix in kind on their crops, allowing no credit therefor, daring and after Ithe war, thus mortgaging their property to Redeem the present carrency.f It woold be fitr better for them to repudiate the whole debt and Currency than to preserve their'fchare oy paying the whole. Already the farmer is more oppressed bv taxation than any other class, becaaee he pays in kiud and ia allowed -only about a tithe of iu value towards his money tax. In the new scheme be Is hoi to be allowed any tldag for bia 'tithe ia kind but his share f the prospect of ultimate redemption. His produce generally is impressed at pra that will not pay one-halfof the cost of production, while tradeameo, inachan iea, and speculator, of all kinds are- per mitted l charge hinv for articleeaece'- aery aMl indwpeasable tirastee any price their laacy or avarice mav dkv late. " vo want of patriotism that duces farmers to complain for tbey have dooe more and suffered more for the cause than any other class.' It has been con ceded that the taxation on Banks ia so ru iaous and unequaled that if continued it will induce them to wind tp their business and the same remark can be peopeTly applied to farmers. If a man were to buy or to rent farm property now at pres ent prices, td sell his produce at Goyern inent prices, he would very soon beeoiae insolvent. The most vital interest in the Confederacy is the forming interest, axd if the Government intends" to commit na tional suicide, the easiest wsy is to refrain from fostering and to oppresa witb beavv and unequal burthens the interests f ai ricttlture, . . .
