     commissioners, be placed in the hands of the collector of taxes,
     with their warrant for collection by him; for which he shall
     receive five per centum of the amount collected by him, or the
     same may be collected by the supervisors or road commissioners
     as heretofore: Provided further, That the limitations in this
     act, as to time and the requirements hereof relating to keeping
