AND all taxpayers are required to

After the Goth day of February next

In every community there are per

by telling them of the time to make
returns or by returning for them.
The assessing and collecting taxes
is done in the same year, and we have
to aggregate the number and value of
all horses, mules, cattle and other
pieces of personal property, as we'll as
the acres of land, lots and buildings
and their value that there are in this
county, and have the same on file in
the Comptroller Generals Office by the
10Th OF June Of each year, and from
that time to the first day of October
the Auditors and Treasurer's dupli.
cate have to be completed and an alb
stract OF the work in the Comptroller
Generals office by that time, which
will show at a glance that the Auditor
has no time to take returns, or any
thing else much, between the 1st day
OF October, but work on the books and
the blanks. We hope, therefore, that
all taxpayers will make their returns
in time.

Auditor.
