THE BANK STATEMENT.
The weekly statement OF the associated banks IL
unfavorable, showing a loss OF over million and
half dollars in legal reserve which amount is fully
taken away from the surplus reserve, owing to
further but limited increase In liabilities. The
banks do not appear to have been apprehensive,
however, OF any III results to follow this loss OF re-
sources, for they have expanded over two millions
In the item OF loans. The loss I'm specie is smaller
than was anticipated, taking into consideration the
fact that the government sold only one million OF
gold against customs receipts or $2,670 1856, end
specie export OF s,52O 56s for the week. The dis
crepancy is dldcut to explain unless on the theory
that the clques the Stock Exchange have In some
manner affected the specie item so as to prevent the
Ill effects upon speculation Of heavy decrease.

not as large as that sold for picking
purposes. Pickles, catsup, chow-chow
and all condiments are made up with
"sharp" vinegar as principal ingredient
Some of these preparations enter the inte-
rior of the human body with as much and
a worse heat than molten lava, attacking
and Immediately iDjuring the vital organs.
The verdigris used in giving the bright
green hue to picked cucumbers and other
green-tinted vegetables is also exceedingly
pernicious. If it is not in sufficient guam
tity to cause immediate poisoning, it is
enough to finally embarrass and corrupt
the stomach, after protracted use. A very
glaring green color in pickles is a sure
sign of the presence of an undue amount
of the verdigris colorifc, and should never
be used. The only safe color of pickle
is russet-green. As to the other condi-
ments, the safe brands are very scarce, and
seldom found in the market But the
manufacture and sale of all these picked
poisons is an outrage that should be at
once and effectually arrested and punished
by law.-Neto York Times.

Assessed Valuation Of Property in 1850
and 1870.

THE accompanying table exhibits the
aggregate assessment, for purposes of tax
alton, of real and personal property in
each of the States named in the tables,
after adjustment by the several State
Boards of Equalization, as the same have
been returned to the census office by the
Deputy or Assistant Marshals charged
with the collection of these statistics.
Minor changes may still require to be
made, as the result of correspondence
now being had. The aggregate assess
ment of the State of Maine had not yet
been distributed between the real and per-
sonal property of the State. In Massachu-
sets, and possibly in some other States,
the amounts given are not inclusive of the
property of certain classes of corporations
which pay taxes directly into the State
treasury. -
