States are known to have great SUPERIOR
ty in all these particulars, it is evident that
any estimate Of comparative wealth, dedu-
ced from the census alone, will present the
south in too favorable light. Let this be
borne in mind. . ...l.-s
Professor Tucker, late OF the University
OF Virginia. in his work on the Progress Of
Population, &C.. gives calculation based
on the census, Of the value Of all the pro-
ducts of industry in the year 1889. We
have already alluded to this. He aimed at
imPartiality; but after a careful examine.
ton made two years ago, We think tina; he
erred in favor OF the south. But let that
pass. We will give the results of bis cal
culs,ion. After estimating the total value
OF products in each State, he divided that
sum By the population. and thus found the
average value per head, Of the products Of
industry for one year. He was not so blind
ed by admiration Of slavery, as 10 include
in his calculation all the frse-laborers OF the
north. while he excluded the slave-laborers
Of the south. Therefore, his calculations,
so far as they are correctly made, exhibit
the comparative productiveness Of labor in
the free and slaveholding States.
The following tables present the results
Of his calculations: ....- b..
The examiner. [volume] (Louisville, Ky.) 1847-1849, 1849-06-09

The reader can see for himself, that &C.
cording to Prof. Tucker the results are in
favor of the old free States, whether we
take the whole products Of industry in all
departments, or take agricultural products
separately. The old slaveholding States
are sadly behind in both. We remarked
before that Mr.. Tucker overrates the agri-
cultural products Of Virgins, for reasons
that we gave and know to be true. Having
inhabited the State but few years, he had
not the accurate knowledge Of it which a
native observer could acquire. A truer es-
innate makes the average product of Virgin
ian agriculture about s136 per head, or ia
king in only the elements used by Mr..
Tucker, S140, or perhaps a little more.
The older western States fall behind in
the result, Notwithstanding the superior fer
tility Of their soil. This leads us to make
an important observation, without which we
cannot draw accurate differences from these
tables, respecting the comparative prosperi-
ty of States. No allowance is made in
them for Improvements on land, effected by
the labor Of the occupants; nor for the diff.
ference between the two systems Of sgricul-
ture, the one of which improves, end the
other exhauses, the soil from year to wear.
By improvements on land, We mean
clearing, fencing. draining, building, and
whatever else may occupy the farmers Ia
Dor, before he has brought new farm into
full and profitable cultivation. A settler on
wild lands has at first to expend most Of
his labor on such Improvements. II is
only after lapse of years-perhaps 30
than he can employ his labor as fully and
as productivity in Iilling the soil as The
farmer Of an old country. Up to this Pc
Rod. his Improvements constitute portion
Of his annual products. They are as profita-
bic to him as the same amount OF labor
employed in tillase is to others. But they
do not appear 10 the returns Of the census.
In new State, rapidly increasing in its
agricultural population, this part Of its an
nual products is large portion Of the
whole. In an old State, with an almost
stationary population, it is nsxi to nothing.
Now if MIR. Fisher, or any body else,
should be disposed to pouncs upon the
fact, that in the second OF the foregoing
tables the average produce appears TO be
more to the hand in Kentucky than in
Ohio and Indiana, We appeal TO his com
mon sense to say whether a due allow.

Annexation of Canada.

The news from Canada is becoming
fraught with much interest to the people of
the United States, both on account of the
evidence it affords of the decrease Of the
prejudices against republican institutions
heretofore entertained among the loyalists
of Canada, and also on account of the am
portaut bearing the measure in agitation
may be destined yet to have on ourselves.
We take the following from the Buffalo
Republic, whose editors location, means of
information, and generally correct and iu-
dicious views entitle the article to more
consideration than should be attached to
most Of the floating opinions of the press.
"We published few days ago a tele-
graphic despatch from Toronto, announcing
quite disturbance in that city, which
had for its origin the passage by the Cana
dian Legislature, of bill, for the payment
of the rebellion losses" This would be
p matter of very little moment, were it not

Our friend C. from Brookfeld, called on
us to do some business connected with the

ness. He gave us 81 80 and directed US to
forward a paper to some person who was
unable to pay for the paper, or to some one
who had never subscribed for Free Soil
paper. The object of MIR. C. was to extend
the circulation of correct principles through
the Free Soil press to those who were I'M
informed as to the object of the present
Free Soil organization, If we had more
such men as Mr. c.. whose hearts
and souls were engaged in sustaining the
anti-slayery cause by their votes, and their
"aid and comfort" the press would be sus-
tanned, and the State of Vermont would be
redeemed from the inconsistency--not to
say disgrace, of voting for shareholders for

The money Market and business in
The Cities,

The money market, at this time, appears
to be very tight in our cities, and business
corespondently depressed. Money COM
monds from one and quarter to one and
half per cent, per month; and all stocks are
low and falling. The quantities of gold
brought from California do not yet seem to
be felt in relieving thepressure, though the
fnanciers seem to be confident that such will
soon be the case, and that the times will
shortly be better. A want of specie in the
banks on the sea-board is assigned as one of
the principal causes of the pressure,

A SAD SToRY.-We have CHANGED, says the
Memphis Eagle upon one of those singular and
melancholy episodes in domestic life, which are
not the less interesting from the fact that they
seldom become public, though so frequently &C.
curing OF two brothers English of this city,
fnelooking, powerfully builtnen, one died sud
denly on Friday. He was buried, and his living
brother having been impressed with the idea that
project was on foot to resurrect the dead for
dissection, watched over the grave on Saturday
night. AT three o'clock in the morning he re-
turned home, feeling unwell, and at 10 o'clock
of the same morning he too was corpse.
A late number Of the Eagle states that the
wife of the brother who died last, went out and
watched over his grave all the day subsequent
to his burial, returned home, and the next day
she too was dead. 1t is singular and mClan.
choly episode in lifes history.
