1Vo publish In another column a commit
nication from Eh11orT ANTHONY, Esq, show
ing moro plainly than 1t has ever boon done
bofors tho difficulties in the why of tho au-
thorities in attempting to collect tho taxes
levied for tho support Of tho Government Of
the city, county, or otller municipality. The
chief hintraucc, it will be perceived, is tho de-
termination Of tho Courts to refuse to allow
thecorrcotion Of er1ura in descriptions Of prop
erty or in tie amount Of the tar. This
notification Of the law. which allow
such corrections to bo made, has
all tho more serious results because,
owing to tho costly and unnecessary
multiplication Of tax-books, tnistakcs nr,st in
ovitably occur. It is tha desire Of Mr. An
TuoNY to so amend tho law aa TO do away al
together with tlio interpolation Of Court,
and mike the system OF ta1-co1lecting in iii.
nois similar to that which obtains in other
States. Ths causes which have led to tho
popularity and Buccessfulness Of tax-nghting,
together with tbs manner in which tue lattar
is conducted, are set forth by Mr. ANTHONY
with great cloarness, and fully Justify him in
his demand for modification Of the present
method of collecting taxes.
