FRIDAY, April q

The backwardness of the season and the unfa-
vorable condition of the country roads still fur
nish sufficient reason for the lack of animation in
trade. A late trade is usually light one, and job
beers keep down their stocks to the lowest possible
point, and only purchase for present use. Agents
have had but small demand the past week, but
while jobbers have not been exactly satisfied with
their trade, there has been something doing every
day.

of these goods.

Dleached cottons are moving slowly, and there is
but little demand for anything except the best
makes, which are selling in small lots. The me

New Regulations for Collectors OF Rev.

enue.
Washington, 26. The new regulations
issued to collectors of revenue prescribe that
the regular returns by banks Of deposit, cir
culation and capital and returns of savings
banks, which, but for the act of Dec. "a, ~,
would have been due January, 1878, cannot
now be required before June, 1873. These
returns, to be made June 4, 1873 must cover
deposits, circulation and capital for the
entire eleven months preceding, regardless
Of and notwithstanding any returns or as
sessments thereupon which may lave been
made in the meantime. There were, in fact,
some returns made by banks in January, '73,
for the six months preceding, but in view of
the provisions Of section 5 of the act of Dec.
81, ~, the assessment thereon was not legal.
Those assessments which are made on or
after June, 1873, for any portion Of the
eleven months, will alone be legal, and will
accordingly be collected, but when the banks
have paid the proper tax for any portion Of
the eleven months and will make distinct
waiver in writing to the collector and to this
Office Of any rights they may have to recover
back the amount thus illegally paid, the
office will abate so much of the eleven
months assessment rs is equal to the amount
heretofore collected. But if no waiver is
made, the legal assessment for the eleven
months will be collected and the bank will
receive back the amount paid upon the first
assessment on making claim for re-fund:ng.
In ascertaining the taxable amount of depos-
its in savings institutions having no capital
stock and doing no other business than re-
ceiving deposits to be loaned or inverted for
the sole benefit Of parties paying such de-
posits, without profit or compensation to the
company, all deposits exceeding $1,000 in the
name Of any one person are to be included,
except that where any period prior to August
l, 1872, is embodied in the returns of such
savings banks. The exemption Of deposits
for such period prior to August l, 1872, are
only to deposits of less than $500 in the
name of one person from and after the date
when the office Of assessor shall cease in the
respective districts. All returns Of legaoies
and SUGGESTIONS must be made by
persons liable to tax thereon. To the collec
tors or their deputies attention is called to
the fact that legacy and succession taxes ac-
crued upon by property passing by reason Of
the death of the person dying since January
80, 1864, and before October l, 1867 and
that that they accrue at time of such death
without regard time when they become due
and payable.
