Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Considerations Upon a Reduction of the Land-Tax Sir, The publick Character which you bear, hath marked you out to the author of the following Discourse, as the most proper person to whom it can be addressed. He neither means to flatter nor abuse you. Things, not Men, have long been his object: And his circumstances are such, as render the publick welfare of greater importance to him, than the smiles or frowns of any party. For the Publick, therefore, he makes this his first essay, as an author. His inaccuracies will, upon this account, be forgiven He claims no forgiveness, and pleads no excuse, for the want of ornaments in stile and diction. Truth is better without them; and he means not to burnish falshood with the tinsel of modern oratory. It hath been, Sir, your misfortune to preside at the head of the T-y, when greater sums have been raised upon the Publick, and a greater debt accumulated, than ever were before, in the same number of years.
