Tacoma Tax.—ln addition to the inconvenience
((attained by the Fund holders from flopping ball a
year's; duty, on the ph of July, though only a quar-
ter was due, that date of individuals have to com-
plain of another very ferious grievance. Many Fund.
holders, defirous of making but cue payment of their
Income Tax, returned their property its the Funds
a lean agn, with their other property, to the Plata
Commiffioners. The latter have jun fent roved no-
tices, cslling on them to pay a
percent. on all their
fboded property for one year, ending on the ctla of
April. 1866; fo that they are tom 131 at the Bank,
and 6k to the Patifh, making in all so per cent. for
the quarter from Chi Pintas to Lady Day ! The Pa-
ra Affettors cannot plead ignorance. They know
very well that the Bank has flopped the Tax for that
quarter, and more than the Tax. The Public and
the Newfpapers have noifed this fill about fel&
'lentil ;it is, and has been notorious. Yet in the
face of it the Parifh Alf:lots are now demanding a
fecond payment of die Tax ! To be Pure they fay
there is a day of appeal. So, a man is to go he.

the notice of affelfment gives no information—to ap-
peal ! that is to be at the expence of employing law-
yers, to Keever where this tribunal of appeal rim to

all f.sr what s'.---Not beenufe lie has been guilty or any
faith, bat becaufe the Bank chafes to make him pay
more than bib tax, and the Para chutes to fay he
Mall pay his tax over again !—Whether ibis us.jult
