The returns" of the commissioners of
taxes and assessments for New York
show that the entire amount of real
and personal property assessed in that
city aggregates about two billions Of
dollars. The Tribune claims, however,
that this sum falls short of represent
ing the actual wealth of the metropolis,
as real estate is assessed at only sixty
per cent, of its value, while an immense
amount of personal property escapes
taxation altogether, for various reas
ons. In addition, there is the exempted
church propeity, amounting to 855,000
000 ; the school, college and library prop
erty, also exemptjfooting up about $50,
000,000, and the property of the United
States, worth $15,000,000, which is
equally beyond the reach of the State
tax-gatherer.
The Tribune says a growing feeling
appears to exist in favor of abolishing
all personal taxes, on the ground of the
difficulty of collecting them with fair
ness and equality, and of doing away
with all exemptions on real estate. Du
ring last year plans were filed in New
York for the erection 2.6S2 new build-
nKS, to cost nearly $44,000,000.
If New Yorkers continue to build as
they are building now, sparing no cost
and putting up structures often the
size of a block, the metropolis will soon
rival any city in the world in the size,
beauty and cost of its buildings.
The Dyeing of Hatter.
Ne w York Sun.
All who eat are interested to know
that nearly all the hutter offered for
tale in our large cities owes its rich
golden color to artificial additions. The
Scientific American gives several re
cipes in use among butter-dyers. An
notto and turmeric are commonly em
ployed, but there are also various com
pounds put up m cans to be sold to the
trade. For some of these it is claimed
that they not only impartthe desired col
or to butter, but will keep it sweet and
fresh for an indefinite time. Rorick's
recipe calls for lard, six pounds ; annot
to, six ounces; turmeric, one ounce;
salt, ten ounces; nitre half an ounce;
bromocholaralum, three and a half
onnces, and as much water as necessary.
These aie well concocted together, and
the sham color ia then ready for use
with either sham or genuine butter.
It is sometimes considered a little diffi
cult to distinguish oleomargerine from
the article of which it is an imitat ion,
and the difficulty is heightened when
the color is good. The semi-transpar
ent character of tne imitation is, how
ever, conclusive against it, as well as its
waxy gloss of surface, and the false col
or can be detected oy the tact that it is
apt to separate when the oleomargerine
is melted.
Eclipses in 18S2.
In the year 1882 there will be two
eclipses of the sun, and a transit of
Venus over the disk of the sun:
I. A total eclipse of the sun, May 17.
not visible in America, the line of to
tality passing across Africa and Asia,
and visible as a pai tial eclipse in Eu
rope. II. An annular eclipse of the sun
November 10, not visible in America,
the principal phases being confined to
the southern portions of the Pacific
Ocean.
ill. A transit or tne pianet venus
over the disk of the sun, on December
6, visible throughout the United States.
There will be four contacts of the cir
cular disks or limbs of the sun and
planet, namely, a first external contact
of the limbs, and then, after an interval
of about twenty-one minutes of time,
the second contact, or first internal con
tact will take place. After an interval
of about six hours the third contact or
second internal contact will take place,
and about twenty-one minutes after
the third, the fourth contact or second
external contact will complete the tran
sit.
Cheapest Iron in the World,
The Bibb county (Ala.) Blade very
truly observe:,. "There is mo place in
the world where iron can be made so
cheap as in Jefferson county. The Eu

when they get both furnaces in full
blast, they wUl make it at a cost of
eight or nine dollars per ton. wnere
