Lewes , Esq ., and Richard Cobden , E * q ., M . P ., > .. , " That all taxes which impede the diffusion of knowledge are highly injurious to the public interest , and are moot impolitic sources of revenue , and that their retention by the Legislature is utterly inconsistent with the opinion now universally professed in favour of popular education . " Moved 5 > y W . E . Hickeon , Esq ., seconded by Dr . Lee , supported by Mr . E . Edwards , and T . M . Gibson , Esq ., " That the excise on paper , the tax on advertisements , and the stamp on newspaper * , though apparently unconnected taxea , are in reality parts of one system , which restricts the freedom of the press by hampering it with fiscal burdens . " Moved by Mr . CD . Collet , seconded by Mr . George J . Holyoake , "That by allowing a number of registered newspapers to circulate a portion of their impression without stamps , and denying the waine privilege to others ; nnd by permitting news and political comments to be inserted in the unstamped publications of the metropolis , while suppressing similar publications in the country ; the Hoard of Inland ll .-venuc lint * invested itself with the power * of a censorship equally foreign to the lawn of the land , and the feelings of the people of thincountry .
