State Beard Of Equalization.

The State Board of Equalization
met at Madison last week. for the pur
pose OF apportioning the valuation of
property among the different counties.
The committee appointed for that
purpose reported the aggregate valu-
alton of property By counties, which
footed up Sle5.552,6l5. To this
amount IS per cent. was added by the
Board, making the aggregate valua-
ton of property IN the State SPA
/ tG,169. Tht valuat ton of the prop
erty Of Iowa Co, as thus equalized, is
put at S5,462057.50 which we have
no doubt Is much nearer correct than
heretofore reported by Assessors
This additional valuation will make

age of the tax. The County Board
Of Equalization divides this amount
of the valuation of the property OF
the County among the towns, from

patch to the Chicago Post says:
The Democratic members of the
House, by flibustering. Friday even

adjournment until eleven o'clock
Saturday. the hour to which the
Court of Impeachment adjourned
Considerable interest was manifested
to know how the House could be an
nounced at the bar of the Senate
when the hour arrived for the Court
to assemble. When eleven O'Clock
arrived, however, Speaker Colfax as
cended To the Clerks desk of the
House, and giving one rap with his
gravel, said &: The hour has arrived
to which the Impeachment Court ad-
Iourned. Such member who desire to
be present can accompany the Board
Of Managers. All the Republican
members then went into line and pro
ceeded TO the bar of the Senate, with
the Managers, leaving the Democrats
