' Worthy received, modestly and gracefully

also cordial testimony of our respect and

EFFECT OF RAILROADS ON PRopERTy
The Railroad Record, published in Cncipno-
ii, states that upon carefully examining tho
valuation of property in n large number of
the countics of Ohio, it finds that tho in -
crease IN those having railroads is always don.
bile tho increase of those having no railroads
thus proving conclusiyely thnt large part of
the increase in the State is due to railroads
only. Enquiriug into the relative effect of
tho capital employed on one hand, and of the
increase of capital, it obtains the following
results
Increase of capital $45O,0O0 900
Cost of roads 10000 600
A precise sinIilar result is to be witnessed
IN MiSsolri In 1850 when the railroad sys-
t"' II III that State was commenced, the taxable
property in the State was 500, 500 600, which.
for the sake of easy calculation, we vii! call
$l00000,000. In 1860, the taxable proper
tyin the State is at least $3.50, 900 900 IL
has therefore increased in ten years, $780,
100000. Estimating the natural Increase
not produced by railroads at ten per cent per
annum, this natural increase for ten years
would amount to 500 0O0,00O The remain
der, $50, 600, 900, would be the increase due
to the influence of the railroads. We wouId
then have these figures
Cost of roads $3.50, 1000 900

duced by them 100000
