The state board of equalization has
made public the result of its revision OF
the grand lists of the towns of the

The board lifts 104 out OF the 1858
towns and adds 81, $50 900 to the total
Of the lists, The largest increase is
upon New Haven, to which Is added
$15,OO0000, or nearly double the entire
list of Tolland county (before this re-
vision). Next after and very close to
New Haven comes Hartford, hoisted up
by $13,000,000. We extend q hand Of
greeting to Waterbury, which gets $10,-

UNFAIRLY raised their own valuations,
are very properly let alone.
1t will be observed, however, that a
state tax Of one-half mill would bring
in $265,000, which is more than our ex-
penses have been beating our receipts;
and the three counties of Hartford, New
Haven and Fairfield would pay four
fifths of that, and their cities about
four-fifths of their share. Yet the little
towns do the Directing.
The following are the figures for each
town in this county: New Haven, $15,-
