To the Editor of the Bee. 

 Sir, 

 I MOST heartily v/ifli fuccefs to the excellent plan you 

 have formed of a new periodical publication ; andii 

 time permitted, I fliould be happy to fend you fome 

 communications. Perhaps, a few hafty thoughts on 

 taxes (a very interefiing fubje£\: iA prefent,) which I 

 wrote fome time ago, may be acceptable : if fo, they 

 are at your fen'ice. It is one of the advantages of a 

 mifccUany, fuch as yours, that it admits of papers in a 

 lets finillied Itile than would be proper in a fet ivark. 

 Hence a man of bufinefs may communicate his thoughts 

 to the public ; and if the mutter coJitain any thing ufc-" 

 ful, the niamier will be excufed. 1 am, &c.

 joining the r.nowledgc of both, in order more complete- 

 ly to comprehend human nat.irf. Bur the phenomona
