This, with licenses and schedule A, makes
up the annual list,
For the teasons just given above, the tax
upon the income Of 1862, assessed In 1868, is
maInly included In the receipts of the fiscal
] gear 1864, less than half million Of dollors
having been collected in 1868 and the receipts
for 1865 consist almost entirely Of the tax as
sessed In 1864 upon the income Of 1868.
Most Of the tax upon tho income OF 1864
has been collected since the commencement
OF the current fiscal year 1866, and will ap-
pear in the next annual report from this
Office A small Fart Of It is found 10 the re-
.ceIpts OF 1865
0fthe amounts collected IN 1868, Sa73, $50
were returned ut five per cent upon incomes
above len thousand dollars. *11a, 40 ut three

The receipts from the ten per cent tax were
all from taxes upon the Income Of 1864. 1t
cannot easily be determined precisely how
much OF the receipts at five per cent are due
to that year.
