Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Principles and Practical Influence of Taxation and the Funding System The second edition of this work was published ten years ago. During the intervening period, the theory of taxation has been farther inquired into; the income-tax has been the theme of numerous and lengthened discussions and investigations; and great changes have been effected in our commercial policy, and in that of surrounding countries. In endeavouring to profit by the additional information which has been thus afforded, we have subjected every part of our work to a careful revision: and being to a great extent rewritten it has, in its present form, more of the character of a new treatise than of a revised edition of an old one. The doctrines embodied in it continue, indeed, to be nearly the same as formerly; but we would fain hope that they have been set in a clearer light; that the groundlessness of the objections made against them has been rendered more obvious; and that the principles and practical operation of the more important taxes and schemes of taxation have been better elucidated.
