AAERIcAxo PACE ros Fools.-In Les.
ture lately delivered before the London Farn-
ers' Club, Mr.. James Howard, the veil
known manafsesarer of implements Of Bed
ford, England, made the following pointed
remarks concerning his experience IN recent
visit to TO the United States: He said he bad
been profoundly impressed with the happi-
ness. prosperity, energ-, intelligence and
self government Of the American people. He
wondered that so many people are willing to
remain in the Old World, without . chance
10 rise, with hardly chance to exist. If the
United States were crowded as England is,
the population would be nearly thousand
millions. In reply, however, TO the question
whether he thought large and opulent Eng
lish farmers would do well to send out their
sons to America, be remarked that one ofthe
FIRST memoranda which he made in his diary
after seeing the United States was, that It
uds 10 use to send a FOOL to America Mr..
Howard hit the nail on the head.

The State Board OF Equalization, created by act OF the
State Legislature in 1852 is charged with the duty Of
equazirg the valuation OF the property OF the several
counties Of the state in order that all bear their
just proportion Of the expenses OF the state govern
ment For the year 1866 they decreased the assessed
value OF The property Of this county materially from
the Amounts lxed by the Board Of Supervisors
The assessed value. as fixed by the Board OF Super
visors for 1865, for the year commencing January
was $730, 9S9, 90S 81
The assessed value, fixed by the Board Of Equaza
ton for 1885, for the year commencing October J. was
5000, 1886.
me Comptroller makes tho following remarks this
subject
Heretofore has been apparent upon comparison with
the assessed valuation OF property with other counties
that the county Of New York. consequence Of higher
valuation than in other portions OF the State has been
made 70 bear moro than it, legitimate proportion Of the
expenses for state purposes.
The interest taken by the Assessor from this county
f. Zebley, TO such reduction the assessed
valuation OF this county as to equaZe the with tho
assessed valuation of other counties, merits the
mendaen Of the tax payers Of the city and county Of
New York.
The COMPTROLLER will here express the hope that the
county Of New York will receive the high consideration
from this Board which is justly the chief city Of
the State
The trade and Of this port it's banking and
manufacturing interests, are less involved In
the proper and discreet valuation OF both the reel and
hence the deliberations OF this Board are looked to with
the deepest interest. The tax payers OF New York
justly expect that tho Same principle OF valuation will
be applied this county that guides State Board
relation TO other counties Of the State in fixing basis
