SIR THE payment of the tenth part of the produce J. of the land, for the maintenance of the Clergy, is a practice of such high antiquity, that it is impossible to point out its origfti with perfect accuracy. The idea of a tenth being dedi- cated to the service of religion was, in all probability, borrowed from the Levitical Law. But whether its general adoption in England arose from the pious munificence of some of our Saxon Monarclis, as some affirm, or whether it was gradually introduced, as occasion might have required, by our great Thanes and Lords of Manors, for the service of their families and tenants within their dominions, as others maintain, it is not material to decide for in either case it must have emanated from those who had a right to bestow it. Kings, in those days, claimed and exercised the power of apportioning the countries, over which they had ob- tained rule, among their dependants and whether they them- selves, or those dependants, claiming under them, made the ap- portionment in question, does not alfect the validity of the aliena- tion in either way. If such, then, be the probable origin of Tithes, and I chal- lenge "A Landowner" to prove the contrary (all our Statute Laws being made not for the "conferring," but for the confirma- tion and regulation of, this right already existing) if so, there is a manifest impropriety in calling Tithes a Tax." Rent may as well be ranked under the head of taxes for they both emanated at first from the same Source and they bear much resemblance to each other, not only as to their source, but also as to the con- ditions on which they were given. Spiritual duties were an- nexed to the one and military services to the other. The former are still performed by the Clergy the latter, that is, military services, are commuted by the landowners for the payment of taxes, of which the Clergy bear their full share, in addition to the duties they perform according to their original contract. So that it would seem that the claim of the latter is the stronger of the two, as they continue to observe the condition originally an- nexed to their tenures. But the discussion of such questions is worse than useless, it is impolitic. Both parties have been long in possession, and it would be the height of injustice to disturb either. It might in- deed be an easy task to dispossess the weaker, but it behoves well the stronger to beware, lest by so doing, they invite a third party, who may be still stronger than either, to interfere andshare among them the possessions of both the contending parties. This is no idle caution; for when once the door is opened for the in- vasion of property, no one knows when it may be closed again. Therefore, Leave well alone" is a safe maxim. There has been too much angry discussion on the subject of Tithes, and some not very creditable to the honesty of the op- posers of this payment. To assert that it is not Property" but "a Tax," that it was conferred by the laws," and, therefore, may be taken away by law," is a kind of nibbling which be- trays an unhallowed cupidity. The maintainers of such dogmas, whether they be tenants or landowners, must know that they have each received an equivalent for this charge on their property, the one in an abatement of his rent, the other, of his, or his an- cestor's purchase-money. Why should they, then, "covet or de- sire other men's goods?" But, perhaps, it is not their own in- dividual benefit that they have in view. They are, I dare say, patriotic men. They raise this clamour for the good of their coun- try. But I trust, the country, whatever be ner faults, retains still too much good feeling to wish to derive any aid (and it would be very scanty aid) from alienation so unholy and unjust. But, if the discussion have in view only a better mode of pay- ment of Tithes, in which the interest of both parties is steadily kept in sight, or if the object be to render more efficient the dis- cipline, or the ministration of the Church, it would be a ligiti- mate object, and every good man and every well-wisher to his country would gladly join in the promotion of such temperate views.
