Annual Report of the Comptroller of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey, for the Year Ending October 31, 1884

Excerpt from Annual Report of the Comptroller of the Treasury of the State of New Jersey, for the Year Ending October 31, 1884: With Abstracts of the Amount of Ratables, and Financial Statements From Counties, Townships, Etc The decrease in the receipts of the State Fund is due mainly to the fact that during the fiscal year which closed October 31st, 1883, the State Treasury received the proceeds of the State tax levied in 1882. The receipts as proceeds of this tax during that year amounted to four hundred and ninety-five thousand five hundred and forty-nine dollars and twenty-two cents and as there was no such tax levied and payable during the year 1884, no income was derived from this ource excepting a portion of the balance due, as shown in my last report, from one county of the State. Some of the sources of revenue of the State Fund yielded in the past year greater sums than in the preceding year, while the receipts from other sources show a decrease. Detailed explanations of these differences and of the causes which produced them will be found under the head of Condition and Transactions of the State Fund. The decrease in the receipts and expenditures of the Deaf and Dumb Fund is explained by the fact that this Fund has no regular source of income, that the whole amount due to it was paid into the Treasury in 1883, a portion was paid out in that year, and the remainder was paid out in the year just closed. It had no receipts during the year last past, nor were there any disbursements charged to it excepting the balance unexpended at the close of the preceding year.
