Taxation of the British Empire . By R . Montgomery Martin . London , E . Wilson . ( 1 . )
Untitled Article
( 1 . ) Mr . Montgomery Martin has found a mares nest . He is much afraid of Revolution and Republicanism , and has discovered a new argument which cannot fail to annihilate the monsters . They are , he contends , much more expensive than legitimate monarchy . He has found also that the Corn Laws are no tax , and that to remove the Taxes on Knowledge could not fail to produce anarchy . Still a man cannot collect facts concerning taxation without being useful , even in spite of himself . Some good , in this way , Mr . Martin may do by his book . And he adds more to it spontaneously ; especially by his remarks on a Property-Tax . The information he has amassed is very convenient and useful , and must have cott him much labour , ( 2 . ) Reprinted from the Athenaeum ; interesting to all admirers of the Poet , and calculated to increase their number . The Memoir is by Captain Medwin .
( 3 . ) The writer is an avowed admirer of Dryden and Pope , and has caught some of the qualities of their versification , especially that of the latter . The satirical parts of his poem are not seasoned high enough for the popular taste ; but he pleads for tolerance in a tolerant spirit , and that good cause is adorned by the refined and benevolent mind of its advocate . ( 4 . ) Calm , sensible , and pertinent , as might be expected from the Author . We intend soon to take up this subject in right earnest . ( 5 . ) Some very good hints as to the manner in which children should be taught to read with the understanding ; the matter inculcated is sometimes objectionable . ( 6 . ) The writer proposes the following problem for national consideration : — ' What is the best plan that the country can adopt to bring into exercise the present unemployed portion of the population ; and so employ them , as to achieve the greatest production , at the same time carrying with it a system of distribution that will reach all ?'—Any contributor towards a satisfactory solution deserves well of mankind . Something towards a solution may be learned from this pamphlet .
