In relation to the taxation of banks the Au-
ditor of State yesterday submitted to the Attor-
ney general the question: "Do items one, two
and three of the statement 10 be furnished by
Incorporated banks to the assessor embrace de-
DOsits In the bank on April l, or the capital en-
ployed in the bank onlyl Ii they embrace de-
posits. Is such bank in any way entitled TO de-
duct such deposits as Indebtedness, and il SO.
now and where?" Attorney general H0rd, after
quoting the law from the first to the ninth
items inclusive, for the purpose of calculating
his opinion, says: THE company, association or
person is charged for taxation with the total
amount required to be listed under the first,
second aud third items, and there can be no de-
ductiOEs therefrom on account OF deposits or
Indebtedness; but the amount of all deposits
made by other parties and accounts, other
than current deposit accounts. may he deduct cd
from the aggregate amount of the fourth item OF
said statement only; and il the fourth item of
tion can be made on account of deposits or the
| amount of accoun rs payable. Under the fifth
item must he stated the value OF the bonds and
stocks of every kind, and the shares of CAPITAL
Stock OF joint stock, of other companies or cor
pOratlOns, held as an investment or in any way
representing assets, which includes the amoun MT
OF all bonds or OF her securities EXEMPT by In w
from taxation. Under the ninth item IS STATED
the amount of bonds or other securities exemnt
by law from taxation, which Is deducted from
the amount given in the fifth item."

AN ITEM OF INTEREST.
Long Sought for. Found at Last-An Abso-
iuteIy Fire, Water and Frost
Proof Paint.
A Wonderful Preservative of Wood and Iron
and an Ornament to Any
Building.

After years of study and experiment, and for
tunes expended, there is one branch Of Industry
and enterprise that has reached perfection The
country is to-day full of failures in the way of
roof Paint, although there is nothing which de-
mands so much attention. But a revolution has
come, and with it "MOtt's Fire and Waterproof
Paint" and ten reasons will be given why 1t is
the best, and superior to all others. First, it is
guaranteed fire proof second, IL Is guaranteed
water proof; third, 1t is a preservative OF WOOD
and metals fourth, IL costs less than ordinary
paint; fifth, it contains oils acids sixth, it
is ornamental to any building; seventh, it will
not wash off; eighth 1t will not crack scale OFF,
ninth, it is durable and will last longer than any
other paint. and tenth. it will withstand heat
and cold weather. The proprietors OF this won
derfu paint are prepared TO substantiate all that
is claimed in the above "ten reasons" with testi-
monials from well-known and reliable men
throughout the State, who have for years wit
messed their truth. Tin and shnge roofs can be
preserved and il old and leaky, at q small ex-
pense they can be made tight and to last for
many years. Messrs NJ Child jr, e. Co, VINO
have permanently located in this city at 80
West Market street, are prepared to apply this,
the only genuine roof paint, and they invite a
thorough investigation. 1t will pay any owner
OF building to see them before contracting
elsew here.

The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1883-04-10
Through to Kex West.

Such surprising number of railroad
enterprises have been undertaken in Flor
ida that popular impression has been
engendered as to their unreality as
whole" railroads on paper" etc. TAX
ing one, Of which the genuineness of in
tention has been questioned, as an in
stance, let us briefly consider the grand
scheme represented by General Gordon,
which proposes to extend the iron the
whole length of the Peninsula and down
even 70 its insular ultima thule, Key West.
The doubters cannot really understand
why capitalists should put their money
into so very costly line through such
an extent of thinly populated country,
but General Gordon does. He knows
what flood of travel pours into Florida
that about hundred thousand people
have travelled on the St. Johns in single
year, and that each season sees the number
increase. He knows that the main i'm
pulse of the tide of tourist travel is to get
as far South as possible in Florida in the
eager quest for the semitropical," and
that large proportion of it will flow
over his road-enough to make it pay
ing institution. If fifty thousand passen-
gers are transported over this long
haul of say eight hundred miles, go and
come, at only three centsaa mile, the in
come would be one million two hundred
thousand dollars, and in the light of such
probability the scheme is Invested of du-
bious or visionary aspects. Then, it's
charter entities it to much land, and it
opens up a country which needs only it
for development, and will return to it
constantly increasing business. Consider
ing these points, knowing the intellectual
power and the unblemished integrity of
General Gordon, we cannot find any rea
son for imagining that he has inconsider-
ately undertaken what cannot be accom-
plished, or has lent his nobly historic
name to merely speculative enterprise
We believe the charter will be carried out
to the margin of its wide limit, and that
the grumblers Of South Florida have not
the least occasion for doubling the early
construction of main trunk and subsidiary
lines

A Great Philanthropf.t Dead.

Peter Cooper, the philanthropist, died
of pneumonia in New York on the 4th in
slant, aged ninety-two years. He was a
native of New York, attended school but
six months, and served apprenticeship to
coach maker, which trade he followed
for some time. While yet a young man
he engaged in the manufacture Of iron in
various forms and in this business accu-
mulated much of his great fortune. At
his works near Baltimore he designed and
built the first locomotive constructed in
America, and it was successfully used on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The
bent of his philanthropy was to the end
of educating and elevating the industrial
classes, and he determined to establish in
his native city an institution where they
could secure the instruction which he.
when young, was unable to obtain. The
fruition of his design was Cooper Insti-
tute," which he endowed by princely do
nations. 1t is noble monument to. his
memory, and among his mourners are
thousands who have been benefited by
his wise liberality.
