- - The Triennial vlttttamott.
Wo presume tlutt it is generally
known thut tlie triennial assessment
occur this full, nnd thut tlio vuluo of
all rent ostuto will bo tixetl by the As
essor for tlirco yenrs hento. This
being tho fncl it becomes tho duty of
every anion to give the Assessor ft
correct stutomonl of liis, her, or thoir
property. Wo will lliereroro intro
duce tho Assessor to tho citizen about
its follows : 1 ' i
. " Asscssos fiood morning, Mr.Jonos.
I suppose you nre aware thut I nm the
Assessor, and liavo culled to make
memorandum of rotir property.
CiTizm All riirlit, i!r. Smith. I
Will give yon in nil I havo. ; It is just
, iina proper llittt ench cilizon should
pny his duo slwro of tax.
Assizor How modi lund do you
own to tiny r
t'lTiznN One hundred and twenty
fieros. (Tho Assessor pntB thnt down.)
; assessor is mm more land than
you wasnsicitsed with last year?
' t'lTir.KN Yes, sir. I purchased
twenty acres trom -Mr. 1 too Inst si, ring
A. I ben I will make a note ol
that fact, and when I assess Mr. Doe
I must reduce his lot that much below
last yoar, so that tho transfer can bo
cen on tlio duplicate How many
horses have you over four years old?
u. TWO.
A. JIow many cows, oxen or steers
uo you own over lour yenrs old r
C I have two cows nnd one steer
A. Do you own a cold luver or
other gold watch or silver lever of tho
mine ot and upwards r
(.'. Xo, sir. I own neither.
A. Do you own a buggy, esrringo
r spring wagon useu lor pleasuro or
lor tho conveying of passengers?
0. Yes, sir. I own a buggy.
... nave you an excoxs ot over
goOO worth ot housohold furniture in
cluding gold and silverware in your
nonser
C.l think I havo.
A. AVcll, what do you estimato the
excess at ?
C At about $700. I purchased
ubont 1,000 worth.
A Have you any money at Inter
est iu tho tsbapo of bonds notes, judg
ments, ground rents or mottgnt-es?0
C.-No, sir.
A. Xow, whero aro your horses,
tulllo and buggy t I must go and look
ut them.
C They are out at tlio barn.
Assessor and citizen now proceed to
examine tho property ; the Assessor
nuking a pencil memorandum of tho
vuluo of each species of the property;
lifter which ho inquires of tho number
of acres of lund under cultivation, ex
amines tho house, burn and other im
provements, and also makes a pencil
mcniorundum of tlio land per aero as.
well as of tho improvements, so that
when ho meet bis assistants ho will
have his own impression on paper and
rendy to learn tho views of tho assis
tants, who perhaps have a personal
knowlcdgo of the premises under con
sideration. ' A correct way to arrive at tlio true
value ot u farm of one hundred acres
of Innd, with tlio usual improvements
thorcon, is for tho Assessor nnd the
assistants to Gx tho valuo of throe or
lonr propcrlies ol like vnluo in different
portions of the township, tnking into
consideration the proximity of post
office, schools, churches and public
roads, and then adjust tho rest by
comparison with thoso properties am'
with each other. Assessors cannot
mako too many comparisons before
fixing upon a valuo.
' To eluborato still further, wo will
mipposo that tlio Assessors havo agreed
upon tho value of llichnrd lino's
farm and fixed it at 82,01)0. This
farm they havo all personally observ
ed ninny ft timo. It contains ono hun
dred acres, sixty of which aro under
cultivation, good house, barn and all
tho oilier outbuildings necessary on a
woll regulated farm orchard and
good lences. J'uw, whero is there
another liko it In tho township? Up.
n furius of this sizoand less the value
Miould bo fixed per aero. There is an
occasional furnicr who owns three
hundred ucrcs but has no moro im
proved land than Mr. Ttoe, noruro his
improvements any better. Wo sug
gest that ono hundred acres of this
lultcr farm, together with the im
provements, should bo put down at
the samo r'uto as -Mr. lloo's, whilo tho
oilier two bundrod acres, whether held
as timber land or only to kocp it un
der control, should be put dowu at a
different valuation, either above or
below tho valuation Gxod on tho one
. hundred acres containing the improve
inoiils. .
. Assessor should fix from three to
Ave rates for horses, and mako lliom
uvorago $75 or (HO. To illustruta wo
wilt adopt tho latter. Assess tho
fooro.i horse at 8110, unothcr at $50, a
tbiod at 880, a fourth at 8100 and the
lillh at 81 20. .Now, add tho value of
Kko five horses together and wo have
un Aggrcgato value of $380. Thon
ilivido by o and it will be seen thut
the horses arorago 870. It makes uo
ilifforenee how many horses you as
mcss by following this rule, it may be
Jive or five hundred, tho result will
! tlio sumo. Again, occasionally
lliero may bo a borso worth only 8-0,
while probably ihe very next horse
i you moot is worth 81 AO.
The Assosoor noed put no value on
watches, himply say whether it is a
gold lover, gold watch, or a silvor lov
er, because the Act of Assembly fixes
.he (ax (State tax only'i of $1 on tho
lirst, 75 oents on ibe second, and 0
conuon lha Utter.
'i'liera i a Ktuto lax of one per
cent, on all buggies, carriages, etc.,
and only a threo mill NULo tax on fur
niture. The great object with assessors
should bo equality in assessing, both
in real and personal property.

During tho night, it is supposed he

Could a full.truoand piirtioulnrhislory
be given of Jay Cooke's bubblo bluw

opisodes in commercial annals. We
shall first have tho lobbying at Wash
ington, the dinners to members of
Congress nnd representatives of tho
press, with not impossibly other more
substuntiul inducements lo tho moro
important members1 tf tho compuny;
firoliminarios all tending up to the
and grant from Congress. The pro
curing thut land grunt, a territory as
big us Belgium, wus no easy tiu-k. A
deal of manipulation with tondcr-con-scicnccd
Congressmen it demanded,
but notwithstanding a biller opposi

who porhaps struck for higher wages,
it wus found impossible to muko a

Co. may consider themselves as not n
littlo indebted to the President of the
United Stales) for bad ho done his
duty, tho oxtruvsgant sebemo of Jay
Cooko could never have bocn at
tempted. But still further difficulties hud to
bo encountered. There is a certain
nowspapor pnblishod in London culled
the Times. It has its faults, but a
wont nf good faith in commercial mai
lers has nevor boen rcgurdod as ono
of them. Indeed, it may fairly be
said that it is not worth the while ol
the Time to bo dishonest, for it sells
and has Weight by its reputation for
commercial probity. .Now tho Times
has a correspondent at L uiladelplna,
and in the summer ol lt, J tliul gen
tleman began to occasion the great
and good Mr. Jay Cooko who in n
pillar of the Kpiscopul Church, and
would die rattier than offend hcuvun
by inserting a Sunday advertisement
a deal ol trouble. This inconven
ionl person would persist in declaring
that the paradiso through which tlio
.Northorn Pacific was about U) run
was howling wildernnss, that the prin
cipal crop was tho ice crop, and that
tho predatory tribes of Indians who
infest tho country were likely to prnvo
exceedingly Inconvoniont nciglihors.
Now, inasmuch as the Investing Brit
ish public read its Times, and believes
In it, these shameful allegations hud
lo bo slopped, .nnd even this was
accomplished. Money couldn't nnd
didn't do it. It was very cleverly
mnnngod in a different way. It 'was
staled ns a positive fuel to a gentle
man of Unimpeachable integrity,whoso
high character wus well known lolho
managers ot the great London journal
that these statements on the part ol
tho Philadelphia correspondent woro
tncro porsonul spito. lioasona, woro
alleged why this should bo so. It was
asserted that ho was closely oonnoclod
with a great rival interest, and thut in
throwing dirt on tho splendid enter
prise of Jay Cooko k Co , ho wssmero
iy serving tho enemy's turn. Unfor
tunately, the gentleman alluded to
wus induced to believa tt.tso state
ment and reported his belief in Ihein
to thoso who controlled the paper and
the uvuol exposures of tho Philadel
phia correspondent who hnd written
somo admirably pungent and logical
letters on tho suhjict ceased to S-
iicar in tho columns of tlio lending
.ondon journal. Thus was tho big
gest lion muzzled.
It was probubly, too, with lhA de-"
sign of, carrying out tho Xorkliern
Pacific project that this gigantic specu
lator was induced about the samo time
to establish his London honso. This
Institution was intended to take the
town by storm. It started with a
prodigious "splurge."
Whon somo fivo years ago those
gorgeous cilices were orectod at the
most commanding point in Lombard
Blroet, each city nmii ns he hurriodly
passed them wondered "who tho davil
can afford to lake them 1" Hut what
could not thut firm afford who hold
White llouso nnd Cupitol in the hnl

shadow of reason, to throw over tho

merchant princes, worthy of thut lofty
title, so long connected witli tho pub
lic finance of this country, and so thor
oughly respected by all its best mer
cantile men in favor of the rickety
Ohio adventurer, Ihe bubble thrown
up by llio war. Yet, let llio victims
of Jay Cooko rcmornbor that to give

only so, but with that end lo tnko it
out of the first house In llio world.
Can ho or hi friends be surprised then,
if pcoplo ask, "What did ho gut for
this ? Is all this extraordinary favor
itism puro gratitude lo a mun lor mak
ing his fortune out of a war loan f
And was tho peremptory refusal to
entertain the postal proposal of the
Northern Pacific a fow weeks aitn. an
exhibition of gratitude a la Taltirand,
vie: 'A painful consciousness thai there
are no more favors to bo received Iriini
tho samo parties, inasmuch as they
havo bust up ?' "
But to return tn the treat houso of
Jay Cooko, McCulloch & Co., of Lom
bard streol, London, their enormous
plulu glass enrol', glossily veneerod
desks und tutiiptuc-us parlors They
started, us wo huVo said, with a burst.
Xo doubt tho Darings, in their dingy
parlors in Bishopsguto, shed tours of
Vexation, which the ubsonoo of such
plate glass windows as thoso enjoyod
by tho trunicenduntly rich now firm
provontod the enemy's seeing. We
can Imagine bow poor Brown Broth
ers for soveraldays "took to drinking,"
and bow even "the Baron" was shown
to be very low. A now tuna had In
deed rison among thoso who woro
heneolorlh to bo incroly minor, s, Jn
going into a London business Mr. Jay
Cooke cast his eyes about for an eligi
ble Knglish coadjutor, and discovered
him In thoporson of ono Colonel Pules
ton, then a stock broker in New York
and a rosidont of Brooklyn. This gen
tleman's career had boon verstilo.
Kdttcalod originally for the medical
profession, he abandoned it to go to
Australia, whence bo came lo this
country. Of Welsh origin nnd per
fectly acquainted with the jaw-breaking
vernacular of the Principality.Mr.
Puloslon wont to Pennsylvania and
became editor of a Wolsh journal, and
it may bo prosumod made himsolf very
useful to somebody in politics, for
during the war ho was, though a Brit
ish subjoct, Stute Agont of Pennsyl
vania ul Washington. A man of tact,
address and ability, Colonel (bo ob
tained this rank in an American mili
tia regiment) Puleslon was no doubt
A happy selection asd is said lo have
played Lis part remarkably well, but
id ugni smid me cons ol u boa con
strictor is loo much oven for a Titan,
and poor Colonel Puleslon bus been
laboring with a serpen I of this kind
luboled "Morlborn Pacillu," coiled
around him. Ho has boon already
named is Conservative candidate for
tho I Ivuao of Commons for a Welsh
consistency for an "M. P." fchods
lustra sua film and was no doubt,
dmttinud to be tho show partner, the
i eillcrUinoP tho prominont man of
.. .. ' . . . ...
.Mcssra. ilarinir's rivals, but thoso so
fortunate as to know the family, estab
lish men t nnd social surroundings of
Air. Jtusscl Slurgis, the American part
ner of that great houso, u ill smilo at
llio ides of easy rivalry willi them in
the multor of social ultruction. . Such,
in brief, is the Blory of llio .Northern
Pucifio. .
In Mr. Juy Cooko's career we see
exemplified tlio effects of unprincipled
vanity. Just as tlio frst Napoleon
sacrificed thousands of lives in tlio
effort to carry out tromendous schemes
lo gratily his personal ambition, and
intoxicated by success, at last fell,
through llio idea thut his military
genius could strike tho word imossi
ble out of llio dictionary, so Jay Cooke
was ready to sacrifice the hard earned
savings of tens of thousands to prove
that tho samo end was equally un
known to tho Napoleon of Unanco
Hero is another of thoso "warnings
to tho ambitious" in which McCaulay
lulls us Ibo n i net ce n tli centmy has
been fertile. It will not be altogether
lost on the pcoplo of this country if it
teaches llicin lo remember henceforth
thut fine words in llio advertisements
of venal newspapor butler no par
snips, and to discredit henceforward
the alluring lies of the "liimncial
agents" of unmado railroads. Brook
