STATISTICAL SOCIETY.

The seventh ordinary meeting of the Statistical
Society, for the session 1864-66, was held on Monday even-
ing, at the rooms of the society in St. Islam' *are.
Colonel Suns, V.P., in the chair, supported by Lord
stons,_ Sir John Boileau, Bart., Sir Charles Trimly's,.
!C.C.S., &c., &c. Six candidates were elected fellows et

The hi, swing paper.. was then read, " On the Minims

The quantity at boa produced in France was fourfold that
Reduced in Rees* sad the quantity produced in Great
Britain was fourfold that peaseed in France. The subject
was she gessidered in Madge to the production of coal sad
iron In the priaelpat iron manufacturing countries of the
matiaget. The galling off is the quantity of French coal
used he home coneamptise, and the increase in the
amour of foreign teal imported (two-thirds of which was
hem Belgium in 1862), was noticed as a somewhat remark-
able feature, and it stated that Hate the redaction of
the import duties is 1868 the import of coal from
Great Britain had eonsiderably increased. With regard to
the predestine and manufacture of iron, it appeared that
the seesuat of bon ore raised in 1862 was less then in the
ear 1847—a fact attributed to the revolution of 1848,which
dealt a severe blow to the mining industry of the country.
The value of the iron and steel manulacturee, as stated
above, increased very largely in 1862, as compared with
1841. It also showed that the late reductions in the iron
duties had had the effect of increasing the importation of
that article in whieh Great Britain had shared, and
finally pointed out the successful competition of Belgium
with thb country of late years in furnishing France with
coal and pig and various kinds of manufacturing iron.
The next paper that occupied the attention of the meet-
ing wee entitled as follows:—" On the distribution of the
emigrants from Europe over the surface of the United
States," by the Rev. Robert Everest. The author showed
from data given by the late American census, the total
number of each European nation resident in the United
States, and the proportions of each, resident in the four
different divisions which he had described, vim., the old free
state, the new free states, the old slave states, and the new
slave states ; the old states being those founded prior to the
Declaration of Indepsedence, and the new those founded
subsequent to that event. The natives of Switserland,
Norway, and Holland which had been shown to enter the
primes and almshouses in smaller proportions than the
others were also those who settled in the largest pro
rtioas in the new states ; they avoided the old states,
Inwhich the great chits were situated. The migration of I
the citizens of the United States from one part of their ter-
ritory to another was next adverted to, and it was shown
that a much larger number of perms migrated from the
slave states to the free than from the free to the slave states,
thus evincing a preference for the free states, and account- 1
nag for a feet often observed—the comparatively mail 1
population of the slave states.
The enemies then adjourned the meeting to Moaday.
the 18th of Jane next, and took the opportunity of an-
trum*" that a paper of great public interest would then
he freseglit before the society, entitled "The Mortality
salmi by Military and Naval Operations," by an eminent
actuary.

THE UTE P ROI EB9Oll ERSKINE Rows.—The family
of this gentleman were on Saturday last mach shocked by
the intelligence of his death. His earthly career, which has
been one of eminent saw ess, hie coeunandmg talents hav-
ing placed him in an elevated position in society, with hand-
some emolument, has been suddenly terminated by the
immutable hand of Providence. while with health a long
life of usefulness and honour appeared to lie open before
hies. " The circumstances attendant upon the death of this
distinguished scholar (says the lisibourow Ape. of Feb 8)
are melancholy in the extreme. He bad but recently arrived
Irma off the voyage from Begland, in a debilitated condi-
tion et health (part)y constitutional, bat muds strengthened
by the eantianed effects of ma sickness daring the passage),
together with his wife, to whom he wee only married a few
days previous to their entering oa the voyage. They arrived
in she colony without ha either friends*/ acquaintances
std took a home in W ' Aeneas. The lamente:t
deceased bad received the distinguished appoimmeat of
Classical Professor at the Melbourne tinivet; was only
'beat 28 sees of age, was ea accomplished scholar, and had
wan eo ids distinction foe so young a man in the
schools at hams. We are pleased to and that his disameo-
late widow is receiving the sympathy of most of our die-
thwacked familial. The deceased was interred yesterdayl
in the New Cemetery. Mrs. Rowe imposes to return to
Zealand as early as pessible." hodepassissa.
