Wo are informed that the books of the Treasurer will be open for the col lection of taxes in this County on the 12th inst. The time fixed by law at which the collection without the penal ty closes is on the 15th inst . thus allow ing 4 days for the penp'e of this County in which they can pay without the ad diti n of the peiiulty. It is evident to every reasonable man (hit payment can uot be mr.dc in that length of tint 2 if all were at the Treasurer's office and he were to receive night and day without ceasing one moment. 'It is unreasonable to talk about notcxtchdiug the time, it is unjust, we tire tempted to say that it is iniquitous. Although some .v >uld ho prognostics are announcing that the Legislature will not. exten 1 the ti ue we feel confident that thoy'well. No set of men are so lost to all sense of h ?uor and so regardless of'lb3 interests of their constituents as - fr all?W* sueh a*1 rtrtul'." As the law now stands, the Executive officers arc not responsible for this hin ; and cannot do 'anything to relievo th people. The Legislature is alone re pun sible. The}' should have acted in regard to this before their adjournment, but as they did not they ought to have met sooner in this month to arrange it. We would therefore advise every citizen who cannot pay his tax 'hy the 15th in^t., to wait until tho meeting of tin Geueral Assembly,as they will ba forced by public seulimonl to aivauge this mat ter so as to allow considerable time for the payment of the tuxes. If the tax is not paid by the 15th inst , no one can lose by waiting an 1 vre are conQJent that they will Le relieved of the penalty. At any rate wo repeat that the Legisla ture is responsible for this aud they should bo made to shoulder it. If tiny act properly an 1 extend the time Tor a mouth or two, there is no one :uorc willing to accord to them the credit, duo such considerate iclioo, than we are; but ?tf they should so oppress the pjople as to- compel theai to pay tho penalty when thoy could get no ohanou to p iy the tax we must say tint they will , deserve to meet the stoniest rebuke aud punishment at the hands of their eon stitucnts. Hut we d ? not fear this, and. ; hence, we say piv your taxes before the 15th i:' yon can, if not wait until lifter1 the Legislature line's and at lea.it let them take the r isp insibility of stying wdiether they will relieve you or not ?
