TeIegraphie Summary.

In consequence of the death of the Hon. Daniel
p. King, of Massachusetts, no business of any inn
portance was transacted in either house of Con-
gress yesterday. We are disposed to believe that
pext week will witness the final settlement of the
great question which has agitated the country so
hong.
Our intelligence from Texas is of rather an inn
portant character. That State has apparently Ia
ken decided stand in reference to the boundary
dispute between il and New Mexico; but we still
hope that no difficulty or collision will grow out of
h. We are disposed to believe that the attitude
which Texas has taken, is designed with more
reference TO fastening a settlement of the whole
slavery question by Congress- than to any expected
collision with the federal government. Al all
events, the government should be very cautious in
It's policy in this matter. Any hostile demoRstra-
zion on its part might create difficulty that might
never be reconciIed. Ii must be taken into con-
sideration that Southern blood is warmer than that
which flows in Northern veins but we misunder-
stand the character of our Southern citizens very
much, if the Texans really intend TO place them
selves in hostile position towards the rest of the
Hnion.

envoy and his suite, who, we have before stated,

and character, has embarked on board the store

age. Now that distinguished persons, such as
General Paez, Geribad Jenny Lind, and others,
are to be greeted with all possible demonstrations
Of regard let not forget that there is great rea-
son for display of hospitality towards the Turk
ish envoy and his suite. The next twenty-five
years will bring about great events, in which the
government of Turkey and our own land will mu-
tually assist each other, by enlargement Of good
feeling and by closer bonds Of intercourse. We

The Sixteenth ward was taken from the Twelfth
ward; the Seventeenth ward from the Eleventh
ward. Since the census of 1915, the Eighteenth
ward has been taken from the Sixteenth ward, and
the Nineteenth from the Twelfth ward.
II will be seen, from the above table, that, taking
the eleven compact wards below Hamersley street,
on the North river, and Houston street, on the
East river, the increase of the population in the
ten years. from 1895 10 1915, was but 27,S73, or
about fifteen per cent, while the increase for the
same period, in the six upper wards, was 1881,
OF about eighty-tiye per cent.
There was gross error in taking the census of
the Tenth ward, in 1910; the Deputy Marshal,
who took the census in that year, making the
amount 29,026; thus showing the increase of the
population, in five years, al {, 100; whereas the
State of 1916 proved that the population of
that ward had been nearly stationary for ten years,
as may be farther proved by comparing il with the
Eighth ward, where there only a slight in
crease. In the census of 1915, there also
doubtless error in the returns from the Fourth
ward, which give the number of inhabitants at
81 ,000, being an increase Of go in five years;
whereas the two previous census of 1895 and 1910
showed that the population was nearly stationary.
Although there is great increase in the houses
for emgrants, and accommodations for sailors, in
the Fourth ward, we believe that the census n ow
being taken in that ward will show a considerably
less population than the returns OF 1915 exhibited.
The probabilities are also that, in taking the
census of 1885, the population Of the Sixteenth
ward was somewhat overrated, and the same may
be the case in a few other wards.
Taking these circumstances into consideration,
we are inclined TO think tina, the population Of the
city was overrated about 10000 in the United
States census of 1910 and the State census of
ls45. Without going. backs Farther to examine the
enumerations of former years, We may, therefore,
state the actual population of the city as follows,
