The time having arrived for those who have been appointed to asse. the TaVue of tht land and slaves to commence heir work, and the pamphlet copy of the Revenue Law noi having been received to supplj the different Boards with a copy, we transfer to our columns so much of the Act as refers to the duties of he Assessors, to enable them to proceed with .their work at once. It is well known that there, are large num hers of .slaves in this part ol the State whose own ers are residents of other portions of tne country. I he owners are liable for their Taxes ; but are not here to give them in. In order lhat all these retu gee slaves may be reguUrly listed, we would suggest ibal the hirers in every case give all such negroes in to the Boards of tbeir respective Districts, in the names of the owners This course will insure all tbe laves to be repoited for assesfiiieDtjF and shield their owners from liability for double tax. The hirer may i ot, in a strictly legal sense be the 'agent'' ot the owner ; but we think they can by doing so cany out the purjioses of the Revenue law. without any delicacy irresponsibility on their part. Th following embrace all that refers to the sub ject of these assessments . Seo. 7. At the first Court of Pleas a-.d Climrter Sessions (or eiich county, hedd on ..r be lure the first Monday io Man h, and t.t the Ranie term every two years ihtjreaf tr, t he court fcliall upi'O nt on justice of the pcaee and two lr-e holders, men of skill :md probity, f r cm h Capta n'a district, or for euch hl-IiooI delict, at the option of the court, who shall hj atylcd the district Loaid of vuluiiiititi of ilioir renpeclive dicUiiiln; : he clerk rhnil iuo a notice of his appoint ing ii t t each man within five da) a adjourn mi- nl ot the con ri.

Sec. 19. Ttie district boards of valuation hall, as noon as practicable, after tbeir ap pointment, proceed to value all real prop erty and slaves required to be listed io their respective districts as above directed, com plete the list by tbe first M.ondsy of April alter iheir appointment, and annex tbe fol lowing affidavit subscribed and sworn to nefore a justice of ibe peace, who sbali cer lily the same : Wc do solemnly swear that we have diligently enquired aud do not be lieve that there is any real property or slaves requ:red to be listed in the dis. of county subject to taxation, that is not entered and valued in tbe above list; and the Areiroirir valuation is in our judg ment and b lief the actual value thereof in csb, and ttmt in assessing the. same wo have endeavored lo do equal justice to trie publio aud to the individuals concerned, s h Ip us God. This list aud valuation hall remain in tbj hand of the justice of the peace of the board, and be open to tbe inspection of any one who wishes to exam ine it until relumed as hereinafter direc ted. Sec. 17. On the Thursday subsequent to the firs Monda of April, alter the appoint me o i, of the district boards of vajuatien, ihe persons who were appointed as justices of the peace to be members of tbe different district boards, shall meet at the- court house and organize themselves luto a coun ty board of valuation by electing by bal lot one of their members rhairman and a noiher. secretary, in case a jusliee of the the list of laxables, which lists he shall i 8e(j Mr. Speaker, to that part of it which l J ' . 1 a a 4 r m I . rf . . a - l makes tbe treasury notes autnonzea io oe issued, fundable on tbe first day of Janua ry, 1866. Sir, it is only three years, from this date, and will be only a little, if any, over two years by the lime they are ready to go out I can see no necessity to have them fundable at so early -a day. I am willing to vote for the bill, if these notes are not made fundable before tbe year 1870. That is too soon. Yet, 1 am ready to vote for the bill if so amended. Why, Mr. Speaker, you will see by re ference to thn revenue bill that we have now to raise thirteen hundred thousand dollars to meet the necessary expenses this currei t year, and it is by funding everything that shells up our debt so fust. By funding the notes to be issued by this bill, it will cost the peoplo by way of taxation, unnec essarily, tho first four years, about on and a-half millions ot dollars. In addition, it will create a standing debt of between four and five millions of dollars, b tan rig interest twenty years, wheieas, if they are tiot fun dahlo until lotv, tne whole amount, or nearly so, will have been paid in by the Sheriffs of the Bevcral counties, by way of tuke during the last twenty working days in April; they shall periect thoir lists and nturn them to the clerk of the county court on or before the second day of May. Sec 27. If any person appointed to take the lists of taxahles shall refuse, or will fully fail to dischare the duties of bis ap pointment, he shall be delated guilty Of a misdemeanor. Sec. 28. Every person appointed to take tbe lists of laxables before be enters upon the duiies of his appointment, shall lake tbe following oatb,lo be administered by any justice of tbe peace, to-wit: I, (A. B ,) do solemnly swear that 1 will perform all my dVities as taker of the tax lists for tbe district for which I have been appointed, accordltig io my best knowledge and abili ty, so help me God,. Sec. 29. It shall" be the duty of every one liable to pay tax, residing iu any dis. trict, or having property therein liable to taxation, at the time and place appointed by' the laker of the list, to f urnish him a written list of his laxables, mentioned in section first ol this bill and in schedule A, hereafter sol forth, 6elting forth the num credit of tbe State.

The board shull carefully examine and -compare all the lists, and if, in their opinion, tho real properly and slaves throughout the couniy shaft not have been assessed by a uniform standard of value, they may , re-assess an)' district, or any heparale tract or tracts tii land, and also any slave or slaves. Sec. 19. If any one deem that too high a valuation was put on land or slave or slaves, lie may apply to tho county board of valuation for rediess, and ihey shall du ly consider ihe case, and decide as in their judgment is right; the board may call, swear and examine witnesses, or in person view ih" land or s avos about the value of which ihey are in voubt. Sec. 20 Two thirds ot the entire number of the members composing the county board of valuation shall form a quotum for the transaction of business, and tho decision of a majority of the members present shall stand as the decision of ibe - board. Sec. 21. If in ihe opinion of the county board ot valuation, any tract or tracts of land, or town lots, or slave or slaves have been assessed at too low a value, they shall make a list of such tracts, or lots und slaves, and post them on at least two con spicuous places in the court house, at tho nmo of their adj ournment.

Provided, however, That when Commissaries aud others, sent out from iho tax lister shall make oath in writing this city and the city of .Richmond.

Instead of getting men ot age ed after the assessment, the person listing and experience, practical, business men, il shull list him at the same value at which seems lhat tbe appointing powers look he was lisled by bis former owner if known rnosily young men, without any regard to to him, and if not. known to bira, he shall their qualifications, for the express purpose file a written affidavit stating his cash val- of keeping them out of the army, wlu n uo on the first da of pril preceding such there were plenty of men over the ago ol listing, and as to the slaves born after the fortv-five, well qualified and willincr to do a-sesoment, ihe lister shall be required to tne business. And I think, after seeing a stale on oath their cash value on iho first number of the appointees, and their mode day of April preceding, and they shall be of doing business, they have tried how listed accordingly. much money thoy could spend, and how Sec 30.
