The compiler would deem it a favor, if any errors which may be noticed in this volume, or any additions of value, could be suggested to him for a revised edition.

NEW YORK, March 23, 1863.

PREFACE TO THIRD EDITION.

In presenting to the public a third edition of this manual, the compiler takes the opportunity to explain that the latest decisions and regulations of the Bureau are incorporated in each successive edition. He is, also, in active correspondence with many of the assessors and collectors of the revenue, and learns from them more fully the practical working of the law; so that, while it is attempted to state clearly the requirements of the statute, the practice and procedure of its enforcement are also given.

Some of the peculiar features of the present edition are the references in the body of the book to the page in the Appendix on which the amendatory provisions may be found; the enlargement of the Index, and the insertion of the late and important regulations and decisions of Com'r Lewis. In this connection, special attention is called to chapters on the income duty, page 180, and to the new scale of stamp-duties on promissory notes on page 311.

The success which has attended the work encourages the belief that it has been found generally useful and trustworthy, and, in its convenience for reference and greater amount of information, to excel all others now before the public.
