I glean the following interesting statistics from the table pub- 

 lished with the proceedings of the board of supervisors. The 

 estimate of property is. as footed by the board, for 1851. The 

 three right hand columns, which I introduce for the purpose of 

 illustrating the fiscal progress of the county, exhibits the valua- 

 tion of real and personal property by the census of 1825.
