The Ac Revenue Il W,

As a matter Of interest we give
the important changes in the new
Revenue Law
The tax list is required by the All
section to contain the 20 lowing al
drtI"ual q@qc>,ion~. Wncro dill you
reside hgsr Year,"
The G,h sec. provides that those
engaged in manufacturing or mer-
chandiSe shall be taxed on the "cap
iDal" so emplryed, instead Of mon
ey 50 employed as heretofore.
The 7th section in reference to
the 80 cents penalty for failing to
return assessment prov ded IN the
law of 1876 is amended by adding:
The sum of fifty cents hereinbefore pro-
vided for shall not be charged against or
collected from any Taxpayer who Will
make oath that he did MT have notice Of
the time or place Of assessing taxes, or ut
the time thereof he was absent from the
State or county, or that he was confined ut
home by sickness Of himself ur family,
which oath the Assessor is required to I'D
minister without charge and also to give
information to the taxpayer Of his right
to make the same and on his failure to
give such information, the Assessor shall
not be entitled to collect said sum of nifty
cents or charge the taxpayer herewith.
Lands can now only be redeemed
when forfeited to the State at the
Chancery Clerks Office Of the coun-
ty whore the land is situated.
Taxes by the 9th sec. are made
payable on the 18th of December.
The tax sale OF delinquent lands to
take place on the first Monday in
March.
All persons are allowed one year
in which to redeem lands sold tor
taxes, on paying all the taxes, costs
and fees and interest at one and II
half per cent. per month.
The 18th sec. provides a mode by
which any person can have relief
where land has been Improperly
forfeited to the State for non-pay-
ment o. taXes, on which taxes have
been paid. rroot can be made be-
fore the Chancery Clerk, on whose
certificate the Auditor executes II
release, to owner OF the title held
by the State.
Sec. q fixes the compensation Of
SherifS for collecting taxes at 5 per
cent. on the first $4,000, and 3 per
cent. ON all further sums. They
are allowed 10 per cent. on deIin.
quont taxes up to the first of March
and after that 5 per cent.
lhe last sec. provides that perso-
nal property may be sold for taxes,
after posting advertisements of the
same for five days.
