NUMBER OF THE DEAD.-In an article IN the
Portland Tribune it is calculated, that, at the
piraion of 6000 years from the creation, if all
the inhabitants ever born into the world should
then be living, there would be 40 square rods TO
each individual "Heace if every person that
shall have been born into the world at the end OF
5000 years should then be living on the earth
and the inhabitants should be divided into fami-
lies CT 5 persons, there would be about TWO acres
of land &c each family"
The writer founds his calculation upon the
following data s'let US suppose that three gener
aions on average are born and die in 100
years. This will give $50 generations when the
world shall be 200 years old. Multiply the
plumber of in babitants, $50 000, 900, by $50, and
Tie product i72 5a0, ,0eO, 900, for all that has
been brought into existence at that period. This
must far exceed the real numbe when we con-
slider that the earth began with only two persons,
and nearly 100 years after, there were only 3
persons 20 repeOple it. Divide IT. 500, ,0O00OO
BY -, ,S64 900, the number of square miles OF
land, there will be ,237 Inhabitants TO square
mile. Then divide 142 40o, the number oi
square rods in square mile by 6,237, and we
| shall have mcre than IL square rods 10 each in
dividual. But Worcester says in his Geogra
ply, there are about 50 000. 900 square miles OF
/ The earth. And as the number OF Inhabitants We
/ have calculated from must be TOO great her
would be 10 square rods TO each individual

OBSERVATION ToPLANTERs.

The following admirable hints we flud
addressed TO the planters Of South Carolina.
by correspondent of the Southern Agri~
culturist. We wish :ha, they might reach
and be needed by all for it is ceTiian that
the stock of cotton on hand, in Europe, IS
fearfally accumulaiing. and that SO long as
this process is going on, it must continue TO
iall. There is no escaping this dilemma.
and the sooner our Southern brethren look
this matter in the face. and provide for it by
achange ofsysiem, the better il will be for
them. We hope they will take these obseG,
vations kindly, for they are Kindly meant.

THE PRESI DENTAL ELECTION-WAS
ANYTHING Al ISSUE!

"As Ia ourselves. our views have been so Of
len expressed, that il is unnecessary 10 repeat
them here. The annexation OF Texas never has
been, never will be made party question. We
said so before the eleetion-we say SO now
and as for the phrase immediate annexation,
It Is twopenny piece of political clap-tIap, too
gross for the most gullible of gulis. "--Erenaas
Post.
We had supposed, ifthere was any point on
which the Presidential election turned il was
the anne xation of Texas TO the Union. The De-
mocraic party in the Baltimore Convention dis
ttnctly put forth this issue IN their resolutions,
and in order that il should be enforced, they
thrust aside Mr Van Buren, who had come out
against il, and nominated MIR. Polk, who was IN
faVor OF IT, as the Candidate Of the party. Expe-
Hence had Shewn what the resolutions OF this
Convention on the subject of the Tariff and Abo-
ltion were worth They had been framed and
pul forth at the Baltimore Convention OF 1910.
Their meaning was tested By votes In the House
oil Representatives where both parties, w hlgS
and Democrats, voted for them. Il practical ex-
position OF them was given by the Democratic
party al divers times, first in aiding the Wings
10 pass the Tariff Act of 1912; secondly, when
al the last session of Congress-, with an over
whesming majority of Democrats in the Ho ISe OF
Representatives they refused 10 alter or amend
1t and thirdly, when at the same session they
voted 10 repeal the Rule which excluded AboI-
tlon petitions Yet in spite of these proofs Of
the meaningless nature of these resolutions,
they were repeated as The creed of the Democrat
ic parry at the late Baltimore Con Venton-and
men southern men, again repeated the folly OF
believing that they contained pledges that would
be redeemed. Well, the Presidential election is
over. Congress meets again, and the Democrat
&c party repeats its commentaries The mean
iEg Of these Resolutions All pretext for non
actIsn on the Taria, on account of The PreSIden-
ualeIectlon, is al an end. Do they act but
one demonstration has been made upon this sub
Iec5 and that was the proposition 10 repeal
tbeduty on Railroad Iron--a article OF The hrst
importance, of universal consumption, and which
is scarcely manufactured al all in this country
w hat was the fate of this proposition to iIberate
Railroad Iron from an oppressive tax that near,
lY doubles Its cost to the consumers! Voed
down by overwhelming majority. And fhe
DIST Rule-wherc is that Repealed BY ma
joriy Of 28--more Democrats voting for the re-
pea than Wings. The last pledge--the LOST
bond of flaith---between tbs Northern and South
ern Democrats yet unbroken is Texas. Our
realers will see from the extract we have given
above, how that is treated by the New YORK

cratic journals in the North. few days more
