HOwithe Present Assessment Law
Works.
Kinds County Gazstte.l

Kinds County Gazette.
The law of 1876, requiring taxpayers to
call on the Assessor and furnish him with
their property lists for assessment, was an
experiment. 1t has been tried for two
years. and, we think, is esteemed, by all, a
complete failure. 1t ought to be repealed
by the ensuing Legislature without fail,
and the old system or some other sensible
one adopted. We are not far from the mark
when we say that at least 5000 of the vot-
ers of Kinds were not assessed in 1877, and
consequently paid no taxes, and it was the
fault, not of the public officers, but Of the
tax-payers who were unassessed.

circulation with the statement would have
been through the identical journals that had
frat given publicity to it. This these papers
persistently refused to do although the Gin
cinnati Gazette promptly contradicted the
statement that yellow fever existed in Louis
vile as an epidemic.
In consideration of the fact that Cincinnati
had established a rigid quarantine against
persons suffering from yellow fever, and Lou
isville had not done so, but had met them
with open-hsnded hospitality, the conclusion
is inevitable that the attempt to locate an
epidemic in the latter city was actuated by a
mean spirit of business rivalry.
temporary lull in business followed.
Southern merchants, their way to Louis
vile to purchase goods, were deferred from
visiting the city, and were obliged, in many
cases against their will, to make purchases in
other cities, but the effect was transient. In
the latter part of October business revived
and by the first of November the volume of
business transacted on Main street was larger
than it had been for five years before.

fire companies, orders and societies, colored
and white, all the clergy of every denomina-
tion, Catholic and Protestant, all the conval-
escents able to stand, and weeping women
and tender young people, turned out to testify
their sense of the calamity. The officers of
the Howard Association followed the hearse
next to Lieut.. hall, and the Mayor and AL
dermen of the city accompanied them. The
Right Rev. Bishop Adams read the solemn
service at the grave as the setting sun was
just passing from view, emblemstic of cur
departed brother, and amidst the surrounding
masses of real mOurners we laid his mortal
remains to rest. May his name shine while
the stars shine, and good men pay homage at
his grave, while these waves of this inland
sea glide to distant ocean; and may the mag
unanimous and philantbropic people who have
blessed us in this deepest distress never expe-
rience the necessities of our helpless, suffering
and desolate condition. We send our sym
pathies to and offer our prayers for the sor-
rowing family of the noble dead.
