The Cincinnati Enquirer contains the follow
ing summary of the taxable property in the
Buckeye State:
The last report OF the State Auditor of Ohio
states that the value of property in Ohio for
taxation In 1877 was 81 574 645 1885, or about $500
70 eacn man. woman and child. This would be
an average Of S2500 to IL household, as on the tax
duplicate. which Is probably about half the cost
ana reasonable value of the property. This
WouId give an average of nearly $4,000 to a
household. Cincinnati. with about one four
teenih the population of the State, has
nearly one-eighth the entire property in
the State. Her tax duplicate was nearly
as great as that of all the other cities.
towns and villages in the State put together.
Some % the aggregates Of articles for taxa
ton are quite interesting. For instance
3ss. 9s6 carriages were returned valued at
about 80 each. This is about one carriage to
every eight persons. Many Of these. however,
are for sale. AS to watches, log esl were returned
worth about $2s each. or one to about every
everything else. There are 81 1s5 Of them, or
about one to every ninety men. women and
children. and worth about sl0o each The whole
q Ohio produced 2139,91o hogs only small
fraction above half as many as Chicago backed
last season. But the stock is so fine that pigs
may be born. fattened to great heavy hogs, killed
and packed. all In nine months. This may hap
pen between the visits OF the assessor, and our
IulI capacity for hog producing may never be
exhibited In the reports OF the State Auditor
