24 SEPTEMBER 1853, Page 9

The following notice, which has appeared in the daily papers

this week, contains a hint not to be overlooked by persons charged to the Income- tax.

"It is very desirable that persons having claims for repayment of Income- tax on the ground of exemption, by reason of their incomes being less than 150/. a year, should be made aware that they must send in such claims, so far as regards the years ended 5th April 1852 and 5th April 1853, to the Sur- veyors for the districts in which they reside, or to the head office in London or Edinburgh, as the case may be, on or before the 10th October next ; and that no such claims can be received after that period. This rule applies as much to cases where claims have been established in former years as to those where claims may now be made for the first time."
