Forfeited Lands Restored.

Among the first acts Of the Camden
JOURNAL, after the Democracy got pos
session of the State government, was to
recommend that the Legislature pass
bill for the relief Of those OF our people
who were so unfortunate as to have
their lands conGscated for taxes during
the reign of Radicalism. We thought
that such course xould not only be
magnanimous but just, aud it is graft
fy;ne to know that the Legislature has
taken action 10 the matter. Concerning
the bill in question We extract from the
.Neus and Courier.
The Act to provide for the redemption
"of forfeited lands approved March /,
makes 1876 a Jubilee year in South Caro-
lima. 1t relieves the people from load OF
back taxes, and restores. on easy terms,
thc land forfeited to the State by reason OF
the failure of the owners to pay the taxes.
Wherever the title TO the lands remains
with the State. any lands which were for
feited to the State, for the non-payment OF
taxes. prior to December Is, 1876 can be
redeemed uIon payment Of the taxes on
,he lands for the years 1861 and 1871
IS. without costs or penalties. la like
manner. lands forfeited or non-payment OF
the taxes Of lS76-T can be recovered on
payment of the taxes Of 1857 and 1871 :
IS The time allowed for redemption will
cxpire on October 81 next. Any lands not
then redeemed will be replaced on tho for
feiied land record. and be sold at public
auction in December. The bills OF the
Eank of the State are made receivable for
the redemption and purchase Of forfeited
lands.
This law will relieve numbers of persons
whose property has been coniscated through
over assessment and excessive taxation.
And il will be directly advantageous to the
State. Most of the lands forfeited 10 the
State, amounting 10 many Thousand acres
have remained in possession of the former
owners, who, Of course, paid no taxes. The
State was not able to make any profitable
disposition of its domain. Now The lands
will, as redeemed, pay taxes regularly
Under the Act Of March every citizen has
the opportunity to recover the title TO his
property. upon payment of the exceedingly
moderate taxes levied by the Hampton
Government. The costs and penalties of
preceding years. piled to a mOnstrous
height are swept away; and the impoverish-
cd citizen is placed in m good n position
as he who has been able to pay his taxes
regularly. There will be no further grace.

in generation is the most that can be cx
