occurred on board the Anthony Wayne,
at the time of its wreck on Lake Erie, an

TAXING BANKs.-Our last Legislature
passed law allowing Banks the privi-
lege, if they chose, of"coming upon the
Tax list as other property" The Locos
have talked loud and long against what
they called the rascality Of not taxing
Banks as The farmer and the merchant are
taxed. The provisions of the new law
have been accepted already by several
of the banks, and we hesitate not to say
that this Locofoco law will secure a loss
to the State Of Ohio tho present year of
several thousand dollars. The Cadiz
Bank has accepted the offer. and it will
save by the operation some tWo hundred
dollars per year by this wise financial
stroke Of policy by The Locofoco party Of
Ohio-M Vernon True Wig.
