The people OF that State will soon follow the
example set by their sister States in the cleo

governs them in this respect is 10Y becom-

The Governors of the Territories are nom

The following table will show the valua-
ton OF the real and personal property of ali
the States and Territories, according to the
f Census of 1850. This table fixes the wealth
Of our citizens at more than seven billions,
one hundred and hirty-three millions Of
dollars. The amount is made up from the
assessed value of properly for taxable pur.
poses. In all cases where the assistant
Marshals supposed the assessed value to b.
less than The real value, they were author,
lied to increase the value. But much o
the personal property of individuals elude:
the observation Of both Assessors and Mar
shals, and the Census Report admits tina
full 20 per cent, Of the property of the ma
ion is not included in this return. If so
, then this seven billions and over of dollar
should be about nine billions of dollars.

Later from the Sandwich Islands

From Honolulu. We have n file OF the Po-
l~ynesian to December 4th;
The schooner which sailed from Honolulu
in July last, fer the purpose of conveying to
Micronesia and the Caroline Islands, the
Rev. Messrs. Snow, Gulick and Sturges,
with their wives, rs teachers, TO establish
a mission in that extensive archipelago, re-
turned, aud reports the expedition entirely
successful. The PolynesIan considers this
as the first step toward the opening of i'm
portant commercial relations between the
Hawaiian Kingdom and the Micronesian
Archipelago.
An adjourned meeting was to have been
held in Honolulu on tn. 7th, to hear the re-
ports Of committees on the subject Of the
practicabiIity Of organizing a joint stock
company Tor Agricultural purposes.
The anniversary o(the recognition Of the
independence Of the Hawsi an Kingdom, was
celebrated op the Goth ult. with great eclat.

REFORM IN BA~NKIEG.--The n. Y. Tribune,

to uphold the small note system, is at length
out against them. Speaking of the move to
reform the circulation Of the Washington
banks, i says; s.r
I'VE tru s. that the majority of Congress
will show themselves to be good, hard mon
ey men,, and 90 for a specie clause like the
one we speak Of. We want to see no hing
but q sound currency, on a specie basis, and
the abundance and growing supply OF the
precious metals makes the present a very
proper time TO take such a step on the part
of Congress. They would also set a most
excellent example TO the several States, in
this matter Of SQUAD currency. We do hope
to see q little Of the old hard money spirit Of
the old jackson times manifested, and to OBJ
serve the evidence that the lesson in banks
and banking, 50 rife in those days, are NOT
all forgotten. Come, gentlemen Of Con
gress, muster mp and give M q good gener-

of this step on the part of the people, was the
