or holding property in land, or in any emoluments issuing out of land, or
acting as local agents or managers of such property, are subject to the
same jurisdictions as natives for enforcing the discharge of public and
police duties incident to the holding of such property, or for the enforce-
ment of public charges and assessments upon or in respect thereof; and
whereas it is just and reasonable that all persons who may think ft to hold
such property, or to be the local agents or managers thereof, should be
liable to the public burthens and duties incident thereto, and in case of
neglect or refusal to discharge the same, should be subject to the same
jurisdictions as natives; it is therefore declared and enacted as follows :
I. No person whatever, being the owner, holder, or farmer of any pro-
perty in land, or in any emoluments issuing out of land, in any part of the
said territories, whether in perpetuity or for a term, or being a local agent
or manager of any such property, is, by reason of his place of birth, or by
reason of his descent, exempt from any public charge or assessment, or
from any duty connected with the police, or with the salt or opium revenue,
or from any duty whatsoever of a public nature, to which he would other-
wise be subject, as the owner or holder of such property, or as a local agent
or manager thereof.
II. For the non-payment of any such public charge or assessment, or
for the breach of any such duty as aforesaid, or for any neglect or miscon-
duct in the discharge thereof, every person, whatever may have been his
place of birth, or his descent, shall be subject to the same laws, regula-
tions, and procedure, and to the same jurisdictions as if he were a native
of the said territories.
