After holiday 1ntcffeHlum OF tnfoo Gays, tho
Board Of Trade came together this morning for
business. It is duo to them to say that they had
observed their resolution With remarkable IMAM
unity, It having beon disregarded by only two
membors, 10 far Is board from, and "what arc
they among 10 many2" There WAS no rush to-
day as acme expected, but tho trading waa brisk,
and evidently all tho healthier, because the mon
who offer to buy and sell followed tho example
Of Brutus for onco and "pausod for roply."
The collection Of the feos for tho In inspection
Of grain is now being performed by tho rail-
roads, who charge 1t up on their transportation
bills. As one consequence OF tho chang 60
private warehouse iB now required to pay for tho
inspection, though the cars are switched OF on
aido.track, and vi aro informed TINT the grim
is moi inbpected. Il il fair to presume that tho
owners of the grain arc sticklers for State in
Hpsction. They certainly can but advance its
oomprehen8iveneBB.

An IncOnSenient Abuse.

The Assessorships of the county are
let out every year by the County Court,
and sufficient salary paid the asses
sors to justify them in giving all need
ful attention to their offices, and in
bestowing the requisite labor to ascer-
tain what is to be taxed and who is to
pay the taxes. Yet notwithstanding
this fact, it is the well known practice
of some of the assessors to go to the
books of their predecessors and copy
them without regard to the alterations
of real estate which may have occurred
since the last assessment.
Now, this is wrong, for the assessors
are sworn to discharge the duties with
as much fidelity as their abilities may
enable them to, and yet we find them
making no inquiry as to who the owners
of land are beyond the tax books of
those who have gone before them
What are the duties of tax assessors?
1t is not only to smell out all the taxa
bic property in their respective pre-
clncts, but likewise to ascertain who
the owners of that property are. This
is due to the taxpayer, no less than to
the State. The taxpayer has a right
to have his account for taxes made out
in true form, and you ought and can
not sell his property for taxes unless it
is so made out. To sell mans estate
for taxes in the name of another man
is no benefit to the State, being null
and void, and is embarrassing to the
man, because of the cloud which the
proceedings ofcondemnation for taxes
entails. Let us have honest and faith
full assessments, not in name only, but
in fact.-Ripely Neus.
