addition of four or five million of dollars
annually to keep the nation in a proper
tate of delence, and a monarchical, ex
tiavagant nation, who*e taxes for 18 19
amounted to 241,047,164 dollars, for the

I he people ot every government con

make great sacrifices for the support of
their government, for they have a great
er and dearer interest in it? in tact, be
>ng a government of the peo. le, thev
merely suppom their oun power, ?ri
T,','{>e, and authority.
I was greatly amused by a conversa
tion which I had a tew days ago, on the
subjret ol taxation, which a naturalized
citizen of the Uritcd States; who, by
lint of pains-taking, and in better times
than these, had contrived to amass a
snai; little fortuue, of about thirty tnous- I
and dollars, upon which he now lives, 1
with only a wife, the partner of his early
toils to share with him in the ^ good '
things within his reach. This man ?e
noujy assured -me that he had nothing
on earth to mar his comforts, or to give
him the smallest uneasiness, but 'the
dteauful taxes" which he was called
on to pay to the Corporation; and which
fee said he was certain, amoiy.t to more
than what w.-s paid by the pecplc of
England. W itb the view of undeceiving
this afflicted being, I sta.ed to him thf
amount of the taxes for the last year,
raised in *m1ic mother Country;" ?ot
from the real property of the people,
but from their actual labour; and which,
according to a calculation which has
been frequently tested, gives to the eo
vernment sixteen thiUhig* of every twen
ty earned by every individual in the
United kingdom. This had no effect on
the "over-burthened" citizen; he was
determined not to be consoled by the
miseries of others. He left me, grumb
ling that he sliould have to pay half a
per cent, upon real properly, while la
bour was untaxed; and insisted in pro
testing that the burdens of the inhabi
tants of New ^ ork were at l,a?t as hea
vy as those of the people of England.
I hat there are many such ? grum
bler# as this, totally insensible of the
advantages which they enjoy in a Iree
country, is too apparent. Fascinated
with the tinsel of royalty, which they
see only through a dense atmospher. ,
they are incapable of judging aright as
to its disgusting form. They entertain
the same antiquated notions, which they
held a quarter of a century ago, without
for once supposing that things may have
altered, or even giving themselves the
trouble of investigating the fact. Their
prejudices have, in consequence, be
come almost confirmed, and it is only by
dint of argument, by continually placing
before them unequivocal facis, and by
repeatedly recurring to them, that any
chance remains of ov rcoming their un
fortunate predilections.
Although the general statement of
taxes raised in Great Britain miK ht he
sufficient for the generality ol readers
it may not be uninteresting to present
them with a few of the /rem, whl n con.
str.ute that monstrous system. By thi*
they will be the more able to judge ol
the superior advantages they eniov,
when compared with the situation ol a
people, of whose comforts, of whose li
bert), an 1 of whose greatness, we hear
so much in the anti-repub.it an press ol
this country; How would a true Ame
rican leel if he was to be told, thai, in
future, every bushel of salt which
he consumed was to be subjected to a
government duty of three 0, /our dot
lorn? Would he call this comfort and
liberty? Would he value the ? glory,
of which Englishmen so much boast, if
it was obtained at such a Sacrifice' Th ?
, s-ime kind of sal, which i, n,o?Kh.?
the United States from Liverpool, md
sold here at half a dollar a bushel, can
not at this moment be purchased in
England, t>y retail, below four dollar ?
and a halj. On every gallon ol Uomastu
liquor, there is a tax of about one dodar
and a quarter; on foreign liquors, that
i%, brandy, rum, and gin, it is three dol
lar* and three quarter* the gallon. Oil
domestic wines, the tax is> a ti-flr short
o( a dollar the gallon ; on hoitic foreign
wines it is a dollar and a </uurtrr. In
fact, through the whole circle of enjoy
ment there is scarcely an aiiicle but
what is enormously taxed ? leather, soap,
coal, candies, wood, beer, tea, 'v*?bacco?
nothing has escaped the rapacity of these
oppressors.
I i?e taxes just noticed are collected
in England by the officers of the cus
toms and excise, the number of whom
is almost incalculable. Betides these,
there are commissioners, and a host of
cleiks and officers, fot collecting the
"assessed taxes," and the 44 stamp du
ties," which form an important part of
">e public revenue. The assessed taxe*
consist ot duties on w ndows, an dwel
ling house*, on male servants, on tra
vellers or agents, on clerks and shop
men, on waiters at taverns, on poiter?;
on gardeners, on coachmen, grooms or
postillions, on horses, on carriages, on
stage coaches, on carts, on coachma
kers, on armorial bearings, on hair pow
der, on horse dealers, on licenses to
game keepers, on husbandry horses,
and, though last, not least, on bachelors
who have male set vants in their emplo) -
ment. There is not a householder in f?.
Britain, be his income what it may, that
ooes not pay a dollar a year to tnc go
v. ri ?nent in name of " window duty."
If the hovel which he occupics las o.ore
than six windows, the duty increases so
rapidly, fai beyond all fair or reasona
ble proportion, that the addition of only
three w indows subjects his to $8 88, an
nually, or nearly one dollar for each win
dow. It the bouse has 15 windows, the
tax is 830 64, annually, or two doit \r? for
each; and it 60, the charge is ft 1 76 16
per auuuin. The scale is graduated till
the number of windows reacr. 180, the
annual tax on which is four hundred and
twelve dollars, ninety-two cents. Every
window above thin pays three quartern
of a dollar each
The tax on dwelling houses is rated
according to the rent. A house rented
at 25 dollars per annum, pays 7 cents of
duly on eve y dollar. It the rer.t is 100
dollars a year, the tax is rising 1 1 cents
a dollar; and if 177 dollars an ' upwards,
it in 13 cents on ilic dotl&r* l**or cvf.rv
male servant retained tor the purposes
of husbandry, or any manufacture or
trades by which the master or nistrcss
shall gain a livelihood or profit, and oc
casionally employed in any do .eatlc em
ployment, the aunual lax is two dollars
and twenty two cents; the satne duty is
levied on every male person employed
in a garden. Horses used for riding, or
drawing carnages, pay sorn- thing more
than twelve dollars and a half; and if
employed in husbandry only, the tax is
within a trifle of four dollars annually.
A single carriage with four wheels is
rated at 53 dollars; and one with two
wheels, drawn by a single horse, pays
about 29 dohars yearly. Cans or wa
gons, the original cost of which may be
from 50 to 60 dollars, " and never used
with a stuffed or covered seat, a foot
hoard or apron," are charged 6 dollars
44 cents; if they are of the value of 8 5
dollars, the annual tax is double. Even
roach and cart makers pay a tax for the
privilege of making them. No man can
kill game, even on his own property,
unless he pays a tax of 16 dollars a year;
and if any of his servants accompany
him in the fieid, or kill game by his su
thority, an additional tax of five dollars
and a half is exacted for every such
servant.
Such are a few of the "advantages"
which the British nation enjoy; such are
a portion of the 44 blessings" flowing
from their possessing a royal f, irmly , a
nubility , an established firietthoodj a
constitution, styled, by its admirers at
horn**, 44 the most stupendous fabric of
human wisdom," and, by those who en
vy it here, ?* the bulwark of our holy
religion." It is evident, that if it has any
advantages at all, they are enjoyed only
by the rich who can live independent;
for the great burd^i of the taxis falls
heaviest upon thoie of moderate in
comes, derived principally from com
merce, manufactures, and agriculture.
There is every possible distinction be
tween this enormous and profligate sys
tem, and the production of a revenue of
six oi eight millions of dollars among trn
or twelve millions of people, sll free
and happy, and raised by common con
sent.
