"Mr ':AN. B. ciuntryrnen ought to be apprized of the danger in the same manner they are of that arising from little villains. Mr. Quid then expresses his fears that he may be thought " too zealous and patriotic ! ! !" But, he is apprehensive, ail his zeal and patriotism will not rouse the people to save themselves from destruction." Ile then calls upon them to assist the CommiUee in using all lawful ineastis to get this damnable tax repealed; and urges them to the step by declai ing that if they will not awake, they hill deserve to be loaded like asses, and merit the curses and hatred of their childrens' children." He then urges - them neither to take nnr give a stamp re ceidt for four mouths, that is, till the time when the repeal vas to be attempted. "At the sight of a receipt stamp let the tioiveisal cry be a Fox ! a Fox? halloo ! and fairly hunt it down." Mr. Oliver then asks " a narrow-minded set of people who v.r.re not at the time willing to move, because they were not at the moment affected by the tax, if they have forgotten th it the bill stamps ate already, doubled ; if they have, they soon feel it heavily to their co s ts. This will be found an barthen upon trade." The Tobacconist then concludes with this most dreadful prophecy :-- But, if the Receipt Tax be not repealed (which Heaven avert !) and if we ourselves do not make it of no value, by . firmly rt fusing to use stamped receiptv, it will certainly be doubled, trebled, and extended in all possible ways; and :th. well informed, that if once fixed, it will be made more fair and equal by laying a stamp duty of fOur-pence upon coy Twenty/ pounds, which will certainly be dune (Mr. Q. . . ha; been perfcctly cot rect) if it be only to prove the great j:isiire and rcisdom of our precious Ministers to ail the world. in that (a.,e our lukc-warm brethren, who are not much a:Tected prtsent, will receive the just reward of their own folly.
