Whether or not, sir, sud presentment

his fluent, and pleading style of oratory.
Eloquently, dramatically, did the coun-

charges of disturbing the peace ana

a positive nature being brought forward
to confirm the charges, Council passed
the following sentences:
Adam Thomson, for resisting The

Adrinua Thomson, s. or 10 days ia

Joseph McDcth, (of Mcnc'h's Hall

Charity McBcth, for losing her ten

thumping it on the MarshaI's head, was
fned SO or 20 days in Jail.

"When it is considered Cd the one hand,
that our population IS over million, and
that the number of those in Dur public
institutions, depending on he State for
support, are correspondingly Increasing,
and necessitating increased appropria
tons, and our development in population
and wealth on the other hand,
it must be admitted that the above ex

seen that every article Of property IS val

Iceeding year This may serve to show
the almost unavoidable tendency existing
to assess property under its true and lega

3 )" 1t is impossible to account for the
great disparity in values Of property of
the same class in the above counties, and
in other counties not included in this ia
Bile, unless it be admitted that the true
basis was 9disregardcd. Why should
horses be valued at $92.19 in Bayfield,,
and only at 1886 in Kewaunee or at
$7627 in Clark, 1883 in Dunn, $63 IA
in Rock and $6595 in Walworth, and
only $16.75 in Manitowoc, and $279S in
Brown, both of which are lakeshore coun
ties, while some Of the others with high
values are far in the interior and a great
distance from the leading markets9
There is nearly the same disparity in the
values of other classes of taxable proper
ty. This is manifestly want of confor-
nifty to the law, and the sooner this .ir-
regularity is remedied by strict adler
ence to the cash basis, the more equally
and satisfactorily will the burden of tax
alton be distributed. .0e pa bga ~

The State tax for the year 1870, has

several counties. This apportionment was
based on the valuation fixed by the last
State Board of Assessment, the rate per
centum being / $500 mills on the dol
lar. The amount due from counties for
the support OF persons therefrom in
the State Reform School during the past
year, was added to the tax apportioned
to each OF such counties, as are required
