In nur last i iSUC of August 30th, ffe published a letter from Comptroller* Qenirnl Iloqe to Hon. S. J. Loo, in reference to the redemption of lands sold for the pnjmcnt of tuxes, and forfeited to tho State fur the want of bidders, nnd remarked at tho tiuio that, it was the intention oi Mr. Lee t?test the soundness of the Cornptroller's at tit it Hb on thin subject iu the Courts. Out "wn views nf the matter coincided with those uf Mr. Lee, but as the snb jcet was sen t what obscured by the I amount of legislation which has bcun ; had on the tax question for the past four years, we determined to postpone an*i expression tin til jtird could cmhraeo the opportunity of critically examining the question. This we hive done, and the enquiry has sa t is.fi ol us that the Comp troller is wrong. In the first place, he seems to labor under a misapprehension ol the law when ho broadly assert* that sueh binds cannot be redeemed, und ro !cr? t ? section 108 <>f the hws of 18GS, alleged to have boon amended by act of March 12, 1872, and conlirmat >rj id hi* ottinibn. Now this section dm s not refer'to forfeited lands, and was i never legally amended l y the act refer red to: and it, is strange that Mr. llogo should so believe when he bad beforo him tho Kexi ed Statutes, in Which this very ?cetion. as well :\n others, of the tax act ol l?liS were adopted and made the law of the State by act of Fcbru tsy, 1872, and ol force by the previsions of ^ Hie Constitution Art. 'A. See. 22, Tit Fx. lop. At the time of the passage of tho act of March 12, 1S72. no portion of the tax act ol 18C8 was ol fuicc, as of that ycur. and tbctefore, when the Legisla turn by See. 1, of the furnier, sought to am Mid Sec. IU8 and other sections of the latter, it lUctn ptid to amend a statute thai was no lon ger the Inw of the Stnte. h ving become nullified by the re enactment and atlop tion of its provisions in the (X0|e yj Statute law, made tho law of :hc State by the act .."d iu the manner beforC'sta. red Th'd'Revised Statute? embody *H the Statu laws of the State of Force at the time 6f the final r*port of tho Com missioncm. by virtue of A. A. March 0; 1SG0, passed in pursuance of Art. 5, Sec 3 of the State Constitution* The. next report was made November 28, 1871, so that this Code contain* all the jaw of a V'ntutory character in force tip j to that date, ami made so by A. A. February, 1S72. and in legal'conrempla 1 lion thiH- Statutes ate to be consider ed as having In en pascd at the same time ?? In et nsttucting a riVifpd Code of laws llu\ are to be considered as contem poraneous acts, parts cd* one entire ays tern ol law.' ? 1,1 .tkwuil uii Tux Titles, 615. From aud alter the re-ena tment and ad< ption of the Revised Statutes, the tax act passed September 15, 18H8, ceased to ".\ist as the law of tl.o State, but Its provisions were made law by act of February, 1S'72. Pamphlet aots, 1S72, pp. 'Jl. It will bo clearly per ceived, therefore, that tho Legislature, in Sec. 1 of the Act of Ma?vh 12. 1S72 ignotantly amend d an act that was nr>t : of force, and that the only law in r da- ! tion to the assessment nnd Onlloetion of taxes and rcdeSifrdinrr or land* now ol lorce, is by virtue of the Act of Fl iu tt.i ry. 1S72. Mr. IlogC refers to ihe Jninl llcsolu tioiu; pf l^->2?"i'> as o.\ pl?lltnry of the intention of the Legislature", an I r.s a rorrert criterion of eon1-: rue!inn. but as it is the province ol the Courts, and uot, tie Leg isla lure, to interpret laws, there is nothing iu this viow of the quos ii'Ui. The point seem*, however, Id be set tied by the loliowitig citations from the llovisid Statutes and legal decisions off the Courts: ''The County Auditor, or his Deputy ?hall attend al! s*l*n of d.di V|U.'ut roil estate, tuado by tho Treasurer of his county, etc; and if any parrel was offered for sale, and not sold for want of bid dcrs, or shall have boon bid in on be half of tho State, he shall enter it on record, A."
