' Ihe statement rendered wa a. con densed one, an itemized one was never required and has never boon rendered. If he means to imply that the statement is an unfair one, one intended to deceive, I pronounce the statement as false and the fit product' of the foul heart that conceived it. If he or his party cannot understand it, it is because they are too stupid to do ; so, or avt the knave and appear not to do so. ' -' - . 1 this man rax Payers in the lace 01 arf explanatory -statement published by me m the Daily Advance, that the -Bar Room tax not beinjr return 3d to me as special taxes was included: in Real and Personal taxes, states that the- said tax is unaccounted for.
