Jan. 3, 1861 20 rf Circular to Tax Collectors. OFFICE OF THE COMPTROLLER-GENERAL,) Charleston, S. C, March 25, 1861. / Various interrogatories addressed to this Depart? ment in relation to Taxes levied by Act 1801, hav? ing been referred to the Attorney-General, the fol? lowing communication was received in reply. In construing the Act, Tax Collectors throughout the State will bo governed by the opinion of the Attor? ney-General, as published herewith. Attention is also called to the "Additional Directions" ap? pended hereto: OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL, 1 March 22, 1801. / To W. J. Laval, Lsq., Acting Comptroller-General: Sin: Your note of the 18ih, received yesterday, proposes some questions in regard to which I find it difficult to come to any satisfactory conclusion. Much, after all, in the matter of tax returns, de? pends on the discretion and conscience of the tax? payer. 1. "Salaries'? npplji I think, to fixed amounts received annually, or at shorter periods, for ser? vices, other than menial or merely manual. Wc speak of the " teai/es" of Coachmen and Ditchers, although engaged by the year, and paid quarterly; and of the "salaries" of a Public Offiecr, a Clerk or Schoolmaster. Overseers generally receive* wa? ges ; but, when a man overlooks, perhaps, three or four plantations, and receives several thousand dollars, i lie compensation would rise to the dignity of a salary. I would take an Overseer's return either way as he chose to make it. All compen? sation for work not coming under the head of sala? ry would be " wages." Salaries arc taxable, how? ever small, and for the whole amount. Wages are taxable when they exceed $500 a year, ami then, in my opinion, only on the excess over thai amount. Roth salary and wages arc compensation for the tax-payer's otnt services. 2. The salaries of fiscal officers arc not exempted from tax, nor the salaries of any other officers than ihose of the Army or Navy. !. Wages of journeymen mechanics, I think, arc exempt, under the exception you refer to. 4. A Tax Collector's commissions, if not salary, would, in its widest sense, come under ihc head of ?wages.'' or might bo embraced under I he head of "employment." The Legislature meant that all persons, not specially excepted, should contribute something from their earnings: and public officers arc specially included. Though not. in the ordin? ary sense, salary. 1 think ..nil Tax Collectors' in? come* would be most appropriately returned under that head. 5. NotC3 and obligations given fur PROPERTY SOLD, WHETHER MRECHANDISE OR OTHER? WISE, if ON" TIME or BEARING INTEREST, woul I, I think, be liable to taxation, as moneys ai interest. Notes given for merchandise usually have the interest incorporated in the amount, and this I should consider ns exempting them, and nol an evasion : tiic law is intended for cases in which the paper is in sonic sort an investment. G. Funds not reduced to possession, and from which no present income is derived, arc not within the provisions of the Act, and such is the situation generally of amounts in the bauds of Masters and Commissioners. The persons lo whom ii shall bp ultimately decided thai these funds belong are not liable to a tax. and ihc .Masters and Commission? ers arc certainly not liable. 7. Professional income 1 consider as tho amount which the professional man receives after the ex? penses necessarily incidenl to the exercise of his profession have been deducted. Whether an ex pense may be considered as necessarily incident, must in a grcal degree depend on the views of (he parly who makes Ihc return. I. W. HAY NIC, Altorncy-Gcncral. Additional Directions !o Tax Collectors. Returns of "moneys loaned" and "moneys al interest," investments in stocks and bonds. &c, arc to be made with reference to the year ending Ulst December, 18G?, and must be for the principal so invested. The exemption of Ihc "Bonds and Stocks of this Slate," from the tax of 10 cents per ?100 on " Moneys invested in Slocks, .S:." refers exclusive? ly to the ISonds and Slocks "issuku nv" ihc Slate of South Carolina.

THE Legislature having, at its late session, au? thorized the issue of Bonds to Iheatnount of $075, 000, bearing an interest, of teven per cent., for the put pose of providing the funds required to sustain the Stale in the act of resuming her rights of sove? reignty, this Bank is now prepared to dispose of the Bonds. They are issued in stuns of 85?, $100 and JO. An opportunity is thus afforded every citizen to make a secure and profitable investment, while contributing aid to the cause in which the State is engaged. With a view of enabling citizens in any pari of the State to share in tlie Loan, the Clerks id' the Courts of the several Districts have been required to open books oC subscription for the Slock. Suitable arrangements will be made for furnishing the Bonds on the receipt of the money, at an early day after each subscription has been made. Engagements for the purchase of Bonds may be made at the Bank, or any of its Branches.
