RE-ASSESSMENT.

We call especial attention to the advertised
action Of the Board Of Supervisors for Au
gusta County. at their recent meeting, on the
subject OF the re-assessmeut of lands. The
reasons which have heretofore and now infu-
epce the Board, presented 10 the ordinance
adopted, are cogent and logical. There is
certainly an active necessity for the people Of
the various counties in the State whose iutc-
rests arc SO seriously affected By the want Of
uniformity in the assessment Of lands to take
concerted action with view to having the
wrong now inflicted upon them corrected -
The mode suggested ia the ordnance pub
lished, for the people themselves to petition
the Legislature for the establishment Of q
Board or Boards Of General Equalization is
feasible, and the only way in which tho iDte-
rests Of all can be protected. 1t appears from
statements just completed in the Office of the
Auditor of Public Accounts, that in thirty
three counties the assessed value of lands has
been increased $3.50, 536 10, and that 10
all the other counties, it has been decreased
$l9,2l5 ,4o7 68-showlng clear diminution
of assessed taxable lands Of SIT ,704, 951 40.
This decrease from the returns Of the assess
ment of 1670is caused by the alterations and
re-assessments made in 1872, the acts of As
sembly passed at the sessions of 187l-72.-
Augusta county remains now as il did ia 49,
70. unless it be in some few special eases
where tina damages by the great flood several
years ago, caused re-valuation At The
present rate OF taxation Of so cents in the
$500 the proportion of taxes paid by this
county unjustly aud unconstitutionaly, BY
reason of the want Of uniformity n the assess
ments in the State, is about ST. 600 1t is
very apparent that the present rate Of taxa
ton will not meet the currebt expenses of The
State aud pay the interest on the public
debt, and that if the Legislature enacts that
these things must be done, the rate of taxa
ton will not fall much short of one dollar in
the one hundred That of course would pro-
| portionately increase the excess oftie burdens
of governn.e borne by Augusta and other
counties similarly conditioned, such as Lou
don, for instance.
/ We hope all the counties in the State,
whose lands are unequally taxed, will join
Augusta, and unite their efforts to effect re-
form in the respect above stated.

THE Cry OF CoLoGNE.-Mr. G. G. Fulton,
editor of the Baltimore American, who IS now
in Europe. 10 one of his letters to his paper:
gives the following description OF the city OF
Cologne, anathemized by Coleridge tor Its mum
berless stenches, but which seems no longer
Liable to that reproach:
1--WE succeed 10 getting excellent quarters at
the hotel Ditsch, and started out early this
morning to view the city. We found the streets
very narrow, and the pavements In front OF the
houses seldom more than two feet IN width, the
pedestrians taking to the streets along with the
horses. The stores on these narrow streets are
vcry fuc, and the display of goods equal to those
to be found iu almost any European city But
they proved such labyrinth winding to the
ryLt and left every hundred yards, that 1t was
with difficulty that we could find our way Al
mn time can the eve command the prospect a
half snnare in advance, and the stranger must
rn,m about at random amidst the most ineXtrl-
cable maze. The houses are well built, and the
city very clean, although Coeridge many years
ago wrote Oft
Eye nymphs who reign over sewers and SINKS,
The river Rhine, it is well known,
10th wash your city of Cologne ;.
But tell me, nymphs, what power dlVlne
Shall henceforth wash the river Kline?
Since Coleridge wrote these lines great
change has taken place, and we can bear wit
ness that the Cologne Of to-day is sweet
smelling city, and worthy of its fame as a great
depot for the manufacture of eau de Cologne
the LIQUID of all Christendoln. This article
here is manufactured in all it's purity, and
exported in very large quantities.
