ants In $780, Ss7O--increase 44G..
Population of Neo. Engtaad.--The N. Y. Daily
Advertiser, remarkiag upon some statistical accounts
in the Boston papers, says New England has in
creased in population much faster than The public
could have reasonably expected, if the shows
every whore results like those thus far ascertaned.
IL issapposed that the population Of the NewEngand
Stases.now amounts 20 aOout two millions, which is
just double the amount in $780, The numbers Of per-
who have within the past thirty years emgrated
from that part Of the country, is impossible to TELL
and exceedingly difficult 10 estimate. We need but
reflect on the extensive regions westward, and re-
member where large proportion of their inhabit-
ants derived from. 1t is indeed surprising, that
while those muIiitudes have been continually flowing
out Of the Eastern States, enough should have re-
mained after supplying the places OF the dead and
those who euigraied in other directions TO double
the population IN forty years. $3.50
The Boston Evening Gazette: says, that seven
eghts Of this population substantial, independ-
cit farmers, living on the homestead-!ords Of the
soil" Pauperism s almost unknown. In fact,
@ha, 10 meant BY, and what is felt pauperism in the
old world, has existence here A few old, infrm,
decrepit people to be sure are supported by public
charity. This must be the every where; but in
part Of the civilized world are there few be
found MS in Newt England" 2
The fou. Heman Allen, who was lately nominated
BY the Anti Masonic party Of Vermont their candi
date or Governor, has declined the nomination. Sc
verai ofthe Councillors put in nomination BY the same
party have also declined. As this party is rapidly go-
ing down, ID not at all surprising that every man Of
character and principle should abs,ain from asso
citation or refuse tobecome identified with it, Always
a political humbug, II would surprise one that in
ess than two years such party should cease 10 have
an existence. a.t .'.-.

he maintains fearless independence which does not
