ii UDIT0R'S OFFICE
The following will give some idea of
the amount Of labor annually performed
ia THE County Auditors Office;
1st. There are about seven thousand
tax payers ia this Ccudty, whose resp &C.
tivcs h1anfcs have to be transcribed three
separate tisnes before the payment OF
tax els c6niAfe nees. ~
"a. The real and pcrsontq property is
catered In items, ahi the valtc Of each
item is entered in designated Columns
opposite each taxpayers name, the last
column showing the total amount of the
different items of real property anl
their values. N,
Sd. The "Additors duplicate" con
tuins sixty columns to each taxtayer's
name which are filled by the vari,u,
kinds of property and the different tax
ievies, such us State, County, School tax,
&c. .sS
4th, In making ap the books prcpara
tory to collecting taxes, forty Eve
columns is an average number required
for the name OF each taxpayer, aud when
it is considered that these entrics have to
be three times made it will be readily
seen that the labor must be i'm
mense Nor is this half. Now com IS
the work of adding up and correctly
footing each column, making out four
separate kinds of tax against each tax
payer, and balancing the amount of rs.
sessments, with reference to the various
tax hsies.
9th. The County Auditor is ee oBicio
Secretary of tho Board of Einaliza.
ton and has to perform the clerical
cork of that Board, which is adding to,
or taking from, each item of property
as the Board may direct, and is equal, !,
in amount of labor, to making the
original assessment. Iu addition to
these services he has. to make the assess.
ment of the real ahd personal property
in tho County for which he receives
$1,000. This work formerly required "a
assessors at al expense of between $50 20
and $4,000. ~
Beside performing all these ardu,us
duties he serves without compensation
as o member of tho Board Of Jury Com
missioners, and does hundred aud one
other things incident to the Office.
James Van Tassel, Esq. our present
County Auditor, has occupied that i'm.
portant ofioe since the tall Of 1868,
except for short interval Of five
months, aud We know of no person in
the County better fitted for the position.

The practice of sending home capital
to further enrich alfeady wealthy and
plethofio Northern Corporations is about
played ont. Every cent we have we
need right here, and more too. Millions
of dollars are sent North evey year for
the single item oflife insurance--all of
which could be Invested here to the
great advantage of every interest of
our section-both commercial and
agricultural.
Entertaining these views we were very
glad to see in Town last week, Col. A !.
r. Waring aud JAS. r. Randall, Esq =,
who visited us in the interest of the
Southern Life Insurance Association
one of the staunchest and most reliable
Insurance Companies in the South.
These gentlemen wrote policies for
some Of our leading citizens, by whom a
meeting was called and local Trustees
elected to look after the interests OF the
Company in this County.
We desire to call particular attention
to their advertisement which appears in
another column.
