FOOTNOTES:
[34]
These
exceptions
were
again
made
in
the
Act
1
Vic.
c.
33.
s.
2,
and
still
remain
the
law.
[35]
This
clause
was
repealed
in
the
reign
of
George
II.
[36]
The
office
of
Post-Office
Surveyor,
of
which
we
here
see
the
origin,
still
exists
(though
the
officers
now
so
designated
have
very
different
duties)
among
the
most
responsible
and
lucrative
appointments
in
the
Department.
[37]
"There
cannot
be
devised,"
says
Blackstone,
"a
more
eligible
method
than
this
of
raising
money
upon
the
subject;
for
therein
both
the
Government
and
the
people
find
a
mutual
benefit.
The
Government
requires
a
large
revenue,
and
the
people
do
their
business
with
greater
ease,
expedition,
and
cheapness
than
they
would
be
able
to
do
if
no
such
tax
existed."--Com.
