"The speech occupies about three columns in

In regard to the concerns of his own State, Gov

In respect to the Valuation Report, tine Portland
Advertiser gives the following comments -
sc The above valuation is only an approximation
TO the true value of the property Of the State.-
The struggle from every part and with all interests
was to keep down the valuation of their respective
sections, and descriptions of estates, low pos
sible and if the proportions between the different
kinds of property graduated justly, no inequali-
~ is produced or injustice DONE
Yet it furnishes by no means a correct estimate
of the aggregate amount of the wealth of the State.
Besides, it very seldom occurred that monay found
its way all into the calculation that money de-
posted or money at interest makes very little, if
part oc the valuation reported by the Committee.
1t is made up principally of ships, houses lands,
stores, stocks and cattle. The true value of the
taxable property of the State may be estimated we
think more correctly at $3.50, 000, 900 than at $7O-
100000 But for the purpose of taxation, 1t is just
as well to be low as high provided true proportion
is preserved in the valuation Of the various species
of property"

ment, and entered into bonds for $4,000 to appear

I'm Peru and Bolivia.


Bv way of Panama, we have advices from Pc
IN 10 the 18th of February. An outline of the
news is contained in the annexed letter from our
correspondent
CALLAo, Feb. 18th, 1941.
Since my last of 9TH ult, the anticipated con-
vulsion in Peru and Bolivia has taken place.
Col. Vivanco has been proclaimed supreme
Cbiefin the departments fCusco, Arequpa, Pu-
No and Moouegua and Notwithstanding Gener-
al San Roman, who was placed in command OF
the former by Vivanco, has declared against hun
with about 1000 men, yet it appears to be rapidly
gaininp ground, as the whole community IS decl-
dedlv AGAINST the government of Gamarra, who
has DEGRADED the country to such an extent as to
Mace # in the class of Chian colony, sustain
ed by CHILEAN influence and subject TO CHILEAN
control.
On the 21st ult, general rising took place in
Bolivia, headed by Generals Lara and lrgoyen,
who have proclaimed Gen. Santa Cruz Supreme
Protector. This officer was expected at Guaya-
ouil about the 18th or Goth ult., where he was to
hold himself in readiness to embark for Peru
with small force on the first favorable opportu-
nifty and as such opportunity is now offered, we
are momentarly expecting him in Peru. On his
arrival, the downfall of this degraded government
is inevitable. In fact, nothing prevents its inn
mediate overthrow but the want OF some officer oil
rank and influence, under whom all parties would
unite.

oil of tansy at apothecary's shop, and probably
took it Immediately after she left the shop she
soon after reeiing about, and finally fell
upon the side walk. She was removed to neigh

but in less than an hour from the time she pur-
chased the tansy, she was a corpse. -LoweH ou-
