    payment of any such assessment, shall
    neglect or refuse to pay the amount due
    in respect thereof, it shall be lawful

    issue a warrant under their hands, directed
    to some constable, to levy the amount so due

    'Provincial Government Gazette,' and shall
    pay over to the Wardens for the ensuing
    year the balance of such monies (if any) re-
    maining in their hands, and shall conform to
