The assessing and collection OF taxes
are done in the zane year, and we have
to aggregate the number and value of

pieces of PERSONAL property, as well as
ths acres of land, lots and buildings and
their value, that there are in this Coun-
ty, and have the same on ffe in the
Comptroller Generals Office by the 30th
of June of each year, and from that
time to the first dav Of October the Au-
ditor's and T~reasurer's duplicates have
to be completed and an abstract of the
work i'm the Comptroller Generals office
by that time, which will show at a
glance that the Auditor has no time to
take returns, or ANYTHING else much, te-
tween the LIST of October. but wo k on
the books and the blanks. We hope,
therefore, that all taxpayers will make
their returns In time.
