form throughout the United States
Mississippi's proportion was assessed
mt $4l3,0 S4, but owing to existing con.
ditiOns no attempt at systematic col.
lection was made, so the debit stood
against us on the books of the Treas.
ury, aud all coniscations and seizures
of private property were credited as
offsets.
Up TO the last report tie credits, or
payments, amounted to about $l53,O00,
but this aggregate was largely made
up of amounts due the Stale Oh &C.

sold from the pubic domain within her
limits, arbitrarily withheld. This to-
sai would have been much larger but
for q decision obtained in 1887 from,
the Federal tribunals in a test case
brought by Hon. Van II. Manning, OF
oxr State, in which the courts agreed
with him that the Federal war tax
claim could not hold agains! the State
but was a lien upon the private prop
erty of the cilizena.
