Total of Tux’ls. 3742
Tho amount of State tax assessed for
tho year 1858 was 83,591 68. To di
vide this sum by tho number of taxable in
habitants would mnko the sum of 9b els*
lo each taxable inhabitant in the county.
The third column shows more properly
how unequally the property is assessed in |
tho different townships and borughs.—
While Clearfield Borough (which is the
highest) pays one dollar and seventeen cts.
for each taxable inhabitant, Girard town
ship pavs only forty-four cents for. each
taxable'inhabitant—making a difference or
more than 150 per cent. *
The following tablo will show what each
taxable inhabitant pays in '.his and some of
tho other counties of this Commonwealth.
Berks pays 84 06, for each taxable in
habitant ; Bucks, 84 27; Chester, 84 70;
Philadelphia, 6 04; Centre, 82 70; Jeffer
son,Bl 51; Elk, 81 52; Clearfield, 00 cts.
In 1853 there were 547,191 taxable in
habitants in the State ; and thoso taxables
paid into tho Slate Treasury the sum or
51,0e5,091 76, or about 83 08 for each
tuxoble inhabitant in the State.
Thus it will be seen that Clearfield co.
pays 66 per cent less tax than her sister
counties. Centre bounding on the bast
pays 60 per ceot more tax. Jefferson on
the West pays 33 per cent more, and blk
pays about the same. There is but one
county in the State, I believe, that is as
sessed lower than Clearfield, and that is
M’Kean county. I can assign no reason
why M’Kea is assessed so low unless it
should be that there is no Democratic
newspaper published in thatcounty-some
thine that is very essential and necessary
for the prosperity and wellare of any peo
ple. Ido not wish to be understood asad
vocaling taxation as a consequence of hap
piness and prosperity. My tariff feelings
haye never run so high as to suppose that
taxing or tariffing (which la synonomous)
a pSfple was indicative of' prosperity and
intelligence —but Ido wish to see a l bear
the same burthen according to theirknown
abilities, and not bind the bu jj he “ U P°
Mr. A. and let Mr. B. escape altogether.,
