Murray, C. J., concurred.
By the Act of May 4,1852, “to incorporate the town of Oakland,” it was declared to be incorporated, under the provisions of “An Act to provide for the incorporation of towns,” passed March 27, 1850.
The Act of May 4, 1852, confers no power of taxation directly, but leaves that power to be derived from the provisions of the general Act of March 27, 1850. This latter Act gives power to the Trustees of towns “to levy and collect annually, a tax on all property in the town, not exceeding fifty cents on every hundred dollars of the assessment valuation thereof.”
