EFFECT OF WAR.—We have just received the
annual report of the auditor of .Kentucky. It con-
tains a statement of the taxable property for 30 odd years,
and from it we find that in 1860 the taxable property of our
State was valued at nearly 517,000,000 dole ; in 1861 it fell
off. 62,000,000 dols, and in 1862 113,060,000 dole, so that
the aggregate depreciation has been over 165,000,000 dole,
and our state has been put back eight or ten years. The
decrease in the valuation of articles subject to taxation ex-
tends to every article in the list. Comparing their value
in 1862 with that of the previous year, the valuation of land
has decreased 50,468,747 dols ; of town lots, 10,3t35,260 dole;
of slaves, 30,706,168 dols; of horses and mares, 4,089,625
dols; of mules, 1,539,113 dole; of jennies, 107,430 dots; of
cattle, 1,078,045 dols; of stores, 3,905,574 dole; and under
the Dlual;eation Law 10,759,491 dale, being an aggregate
of nearly 113,000,000 dols for the financial year ending the
e de
10th of October, 1862, while for the year previous the
crease was 52,294,131.—L0ui5vi11e yrournal.
