Arifing from land, in paying a. Tenth of his income, pays (eftimating land at thirty years purchafe) a three hundredth part of his property. Men under thefe dif- ferent defcriptions pay equally, though their properties are unequal in the proportion of fix, ten, and Much objection alfo has on all hands been made to the touching of the funds by taxation : [ 9 ] but I own that I do not fee any fufficient reafon why property in the funds may not be as juftly as any other property fubjeft to the dif...pofal of the legiflature. I make this ob fervation with perfect impartiality; for a con- fiderable part of the little property I poflels is in the funds. Parliament has pledged the nation to the payment of the intereft of the money which has been borrowed, till the principal is paid off; but when the debt is become fo great, that the rental of the king- dom will fcarcely pay the intereft of it, I do not fee any breech of contract, any want of equity, in the legiflature of the country fay- ing to the public creditor the poflefibrs of land are giving up a tenth or a twentieth part of all they are worth for the public fervice ; the pofleflbrs of houfes, of (rock in trade, of mortgages and bonds, are doing the fame thing what reafon can be given why you mould be exempted ?
