To Whom it May Concern.

There is large amount Of back-taxes due
the State and County upon lands which
have been sold for taxes and bought in by the
State and County subject to redemption by
the owners. BY recent decision of the Su-
preme Court of Tennessee, it is held that the
liens of the State and County may be en-
forced and these lands sold by a decree of
the Chancery Court barring all equity of
redemption and giving good titles to pur-
chasers. These taxes must be paid or re-
sort will be made, after reasonable time, 10
the Chancery Court TO enforce payment &c
cording to the principles Of this opinion.
Tax payers will save their lands and costs
by attending to this matter.

TRYING TO APPOINT TAX COLLECTORS Thc
County Commissioners on Tuesday heard argu-
mcnts of counsel in reference to the award of
the collection of taxes in the fourth district
On the Goth of April proposals were received from
w. A. Hope, at per cent. w. j. T. Riley, Log
per cent; James s. Calder, 24s per cent, and
ID. V. st. Clair, 2.9 per cent. Mr. Rilcy's bid
being the lowest and accompanied with bond,
was referred to George l.. VanBibber, ESQ.,,
counsel to the commissioners, for examination.
This bid was subsequently withdrawn, and the
appointment was thereupon claimed by both
Messrs st. Clair and Calder Mr.. st. Clair's bid
had been accompanied by bond in regular form,
while Mr.. Calder's merely contained an agree.
ment to give good and sufficient bond Mfr.
Calder was represented by Messrs VIM Young
and 8. A. Williams, Esqs, attorneys, and Mr.. st.
Clair by Henry W. Archer and Herman Stump,
Jr., Esqs. The counsel for Mr. Calder urged that
their client had conforned 10 the practice here.
toiore pursned in presenting bids for the colec.
tion of taxes, and being the next lowest bidder
after Mr.. Riley, that he was entitled to the an
pointment. Upon the withdrawal of Mr.. Riley,s
bid, Mr.. Calder filed good and sufficient bond
On the other hand the counsel for Mr.. St. Clair
claimed that the law was clear and explicit In
requiring all bids TO be accompanied by good
and sufficient bond, and that as Mr.. 81. Glars
bid was strictly in compliance with the law,
while Mr.. Calder's was not, the appointment
should therefore be given TO their client. The
case was argued on both sides and the Commits
sioners decided to submit both bonds to their
counsel for examination.
