The Presse of Vienna has the following, dated
from Pextb, August 2G :—" The forced collection
of the taxes commenced here yesterday, and this
morning the office was so crowded with taxpayers
that the officers were unable to get through the
btaimes. The day before yesterday a capasin of
infantry, accompanied by an imperial commissary,
went to the Town-hall of Ofen, in order to take
possession of the tax registers, which the burgo-
master bad refused to give up voluntarily. No
resistance was offered ; and, if attempted, it would
have been useless, as an armed force was at band
to support the requisition of the officer."
