LANDS AND ASSESSMENTS.

We present the following table Of items, culled
from the duplicates of 1871, on hle in the Com
mssioners' Office. And II there Is any one curious
enough to know how much labor 1t takes to Gull
nearly three quarters Of million of acres Of land
out Of thirty duplicates, together with the aggro-
gate value (s2.po7, $40, as well us tho average
value 80 per acTe) in each township, lot him try
II. We spent about six weeks, and will deem our
selves fully compensated II we can only attract
the attention of Assessors and taxpayers to the
rule laid down In the table.
Heretofore no officer or individual In the county
could tell the number Of acres OF land In any town
ship in the county, nor the aggregate or average
value thereof. That the table Is correct in evcry
particular VIC do not claim, but II approx matcs
very nearly that point, and will answer for all
practical purposes. That something Is wrong
somewhere is very evident. While the Surveyor
Generals Office at Harrisburg assigns seven hun
dred and sixty-one thousand (70l, ,000) acres Of
land to Clcarfeld county, the thirty Assessors re-
turn only six hundred and sixty y-nnc thousand
four hundred and three (669, ,io3) acres. It will
be observed that there is discrepancy of ninety
one thousand Ave hundred and ninety seven
,597) acres. There is therefore that number of
acres rin the woods" somewhere, untaxed, and the
question now is, does the State Office charge our
county with too much land, or do the taxpayers
and Assessors fail to make proper returng

A PROPER LAVA bill has passed
the lower house Of the Legislature requiring all
costs to be paid upon taking an appeal from a
judgment entered by Justice Of the Peace. This
is certainly wholesome law and gives the JUS
tices, Constabes and witnesses the costs to which
they are entitled, instead of to somebody else.
Thousands of dollars have been lost under the old
system. The following is the bill in question;
SECTION /. BE il enacted, dc. That before any
appeal shall hereafter be taken from the judgment
of justice Of the peace, the party appellant, his
agent or attorney, shall make oath or affirmation
before the justice that il Is not for the purpose Of
delay such appeal is entered, but because he firm
ly believes injustice has been done, and that the
justice shall enter said oath or affirmation upon
his docket: Prorided, That whenever the appel
liant makes an affidavit that he is unable to pay
the costs, he shall be allowed to appeal without
paying costs And proridfd further, That the pro-
visions Of this bill shall not apply to the city of
