January, 1875, were $1,514,022, reducing the total debt to a net amount of $5,574,378. Valuation of total taxables in 1874, $25 >,000,000; tax rate, 5 mills. Maryland.— The assessed valuation of property in 1874 was $463,034,812 on which the rate.of taxation was 20 5-16 cents per $100; income from dividends on railroad, canal and other stocks owned by the State was $139,469. The State has largely assisted canals and railroads, and holds $4,469,783 of stocks and bonds of solvent companies, besides $55,459 in the sinking fund, leaving only $6,625,236 of debt, without any offset; the State also holds $22,122,441 in unproductive securities. On two investments only, the Comptroller says that the State has met no loss, viz., the Baltimore & Ohio and the Columbia & Port Deposit railroads. Massachusetts.— All interest on the funded debt of Massachusetts is paid in coin. The credit of Massachusetts stands higher, perhaps, than that of any other State, although the only Northern State that is increasing its funded debt. One for the high standing of the reason State’s the careful application of principle, which has been thoroughly tried in Massachusetts finances. credit is found in the sinking fund v ry _ the debt was increased $987,400sinking funds in January, 1875, were $13,577,105. including school funds.

During the last forty years, with a single excep¬ tion, the taxable valuation has shown an annual increase. Taking the valuation of 1874, $798,755,050, and, assuming that the valuation of 1875 can be safely placed at say $800,000,000, the rate of taxation will be less than $14 per $l,0u0, a material reduction from the rate ($15 60 per $1,000) levied last year, and about the average rate for the last eleven years—$13 88.” The Mayor’s message on finances will be found in V. 18, p. 65. Brooklyn.—The comptroller’s report is not issued one year after the period to which it relates, and is therefore of little use for practical purposes. The Mayor, in his message, January, 1875, stated that the debt chargeable on taxation increased in 1874 only $525,115, against $2,426,516 in 1873, $1,591,411 in 1872, and $3,590,531 in 1871. The total debt is stated at $35,048,621, of which $11,685,365 is chargeable on assessments for local improve¬ ments, and $10,620,000 is chargeable on water rents, Amount of sinking fund to be used for the redemp¬ tion of this debt is $3,028,278. The Mayor recom¬ mends that no more be expended on public works except the Brooklyn bridge, which will require about $750,000 per year. Population in 1870, 396,200, against 266,661 in 1860. Valuation till about of property in King’s County in 1874, by the State Board of Equalization, $179,085,870 leaving $12,793,256 as a charge on general taxation for real estate, and personal, $18,975,980; they esti¬ mated the true value of real estate to be $426,898,740. The Board of Supervisors valued the total taxable property of Brooklyn in 1873 at $216,078,170, and of Kings Connty at $227,699,048. The debt of Kings Connty, separate from the debt of Brooklyn, is $3,654,712. Average tax rate in 1874, $8 53 per $100, against $8 46 in 1873. (V. 19, p. 142,652.) all SECURITIES.

The reduction of earnings was attributable as much to the reduction in the rate of compensation as in the reduction of quantities. In my judgement, there is nothing in these compar¬ ative results which should have the least tendency to discourage the directors or stockholders of the company, hut that, on the contrary, there is much te give confidence in the great strength and almost inexhaustible resources of the road.” Dividends have been paid as preferred follows: On stock, 7 per cent yearly, 1864 to 1867. and same in 1872 and 1873 ; on common, 8 per year in 1864 and 1865, 1% in 1872, and 1 per cent in 1873.
