that when first visited by navigators,
sixty years ago, these islands had pop
ulation amounting to 100000 souls, and
that they are now dwindled down to
10000, and that causes are in opera
ton which continue to reduce their
numbers yearly. 1t is stated that hard
ly more Than one in four Of families now
existing, have children living, and that
according TO the last census the whole
number Of children amounted to but a
little more than a third Of the whole pop
ulatlon. Yet, the climate is salubrious,
favorable to health, and the means Of
subsistence are easily obtained. The
chiefca Of the decline of population
are the introduction of ardent spirits,

LANDS ON THECANAL.--The following
is an extract from the report of the Com
missioner General Of the Land Office
and contains matters Of much importance
to this section ofthe country.
1t is deemed proper TO invite atten.
ton to the subject of the alternate Sec
tions along the line Of that portion of,he
Wabash and Erie canal which lies in
Ohio. These sections, extending five
miles from the canal on both sides, yet
remain to be disposed Of by the United
States. They had been thrown into mar
ket with the exception of some Indian
reserves) and made subject to private
entry before the passage Of the act Of I'd
March, 1887, making the grant of alter
nate sections to Indiana for the purpose
of constructing the canal; and in the
year 1888 the Secretary Of the Treasu-
ry deemed it expedient, on the sugges-
tion of the Governor Of the State, 10
withdraw them from the private entry
until the selections by the State should
be completed. Subsequently they have
been reserved from sale by the third sec.
ton ofthe act Goth June, 1888, entitled
i" An act authorizing the selection of
certain Wabash and Erie canal lands in
the State of Ohio" Believing that the
time has arrived when it would be expe.
dent to make provisions for again put
ting these lands into market, as the State
ofOhio has now completed the selections
referred to, with the exception Of tri-
vial quantity,) cannot fail to present
this matter to the view Of Congress, and
would accompany it with the remark
that the act Of Congress Of 24th May,
1928, " to aid the State of Ohio in extern
ding the Miami canal from Dayton to
Lake Erie," &c. required that the alter
nate sections of that canal, which re.
mained to the United States, should
be subject to sale at the enchanced mini
mum plice Of two dollars and fifty cents
the acre. In view of the incresed val.
ue of these lands from lapse of time and
other circumstances, it is suggested
whether il would not be expedient that
provision be made by law again offering
them at public auction, subject to an en-
hanced minimum price.

The PRESIDENT OF THE u. S. SEN
ATE.--There never was a more unfor-
tunate choice Of public officer so far
as his capacity for public business is con-
cerned, than the election OF Col. Rich
ard NJ. Johnson, as Vice President Of
the United States. He boggles at the
commonest forms Of business, and il any
thing out Of :he beaten track comes up,
his confusion and embarrassment rem
ders him an object of mingled contempt
and pity. 1t is said to be matter Of
doubt, whetherhe has uttereda gramma-
tical sentence from the Chair Of the SEN
ate, since the day he entered il. The
Louisville Journal gives the following
as the last anecdote connected with
the Presidents most unfortunate incapa-
city for the duties of his exalted station ;
=" The Colonel, who is most awkward
and inefficient presiding officer. became
greatly embarrassed when certain bill
was ordered to be engrossed and read a
third time. He rose and said Sena-
tors, it is moved-and-and seconded
that bill-that the bill"-and here
he stuck fast. A short pause ensued,
when Mr.. Calhoun cried out "bc en-
crossed and read third time,' in tone
Of sharp and fiery impatience that made
Col. johnson start back in his seat and
set the whole Senate into litter"
