The THREE DAYS LATER News brought
by the Canada has one noteworthy item,
namely. the reyulsion in the Cotton market.
Politically there is nothing to call ior SPe-
cial comment. In France it seems tina. the
Assemblies Committee of Revision have
agreed by nine to six to report that they
would like to have the Constitution constitu-
tionally revised. But this is far from lndl-
eating the attainment of that imposslbility,
a majority of three-quarters for three sue
cessive months. in favor of the measure.
Requirements are being sent to the army
at Rome. This is a good step. French
troops are better there than Austrian, Tor
the reason that they may easier and sooner
be transferred from supporting the monarch
ical cause to that of the people, and the
more of them sent there the better, under
present circumstances The Duchess of
Montpensier is about to give presumphve
heir to the throne of Spain. In Portugal
all is tranquil. We should not omit to add
that the British Commons have induStrl-

amendments to the Ecclesiastical Titles

making an increase of near 90 per cent In
Delaware there are now 2,239 slaves; IN
ls40 there were 3l6 more than that number.
On the other hand, the free population OF
color has increased l,03- above Its number
in 1910, which was 1919 In Maryland
there were more runaways than manumlt-
ted during the wear but IN Delaware there
were Ia of the latter to 10 oi the former
In Maryland one slave run away Out OF

in MARYLAND one was manumitted 10 every

In Virginia there are 473,026 saves ;
and in the year there ran away
50. or one to 5.31f: and 2il were manu-
United. or one to every 1912. This diff
ference arises no doubt from the differ
epcc in the facilities of escape from the sew
eral States. 1t is remarkable, however,
that the disposition to emancpate increases
as we approach the Northern border and
the influence of freedom the same infiu-

the re-capture OF fugitives. Delaware,
whose Slave property suffers more from
the innate love of illegitimate freedom than
any other State makes great deal less
fuss about catching the runaways. Mary
land, though a greater sufferer IN this re-
spect than Virginia, is still not half so hot
in favor of Southern Rights, while North
Carolina and Mississippi, which can hardly
lose negro wear, burst into paroxysms
of gas at a hint that the Fugitive Law may
possibly suffer modification or repeal.
The number of colored persons in New
York is, in round figures. $4,000, OF whom
$4,000 are males, aud $4,000 females III
1910 the number was $4,000. of whom "a
900 were males and $4,000 females The
decrease has thus been about equal in the
two sexes.
1t is worthy of notice that III Maine, New
York and MARYLAND, the number of white
males considerably exceeds that of females.
In New-York the excess is 10000, III
Maine IL 200, and in Maryland 1000. The
excess is thus proportlonally largest IN
Maine This we suppose is to be attributed
to the large number of the daughters of that
State employed elsewhere in factories, or as
school-mistresses. possibly also to superior
beauty. health, generosity of heart, and
household thrift which have induced bach
elors OF other States to resort thlther IN
search OF wives

Census Statistics.

We publish this morning some interest
inc statistics, taken from the census re.
turns at Washington. We present them
from the official tables and they NAV there
fore be relied on as exact
In our State it appears there are 472,l5l
dwellings accommodating 3 1907 ,095 persons,
making an average of little more than SIN
persons to a hOuse-not a great degree OF
crowding. Nevertheless, there are 9i,S0S
families more than there are houses. OF
course the great proportion OF these are IN
lage cities, where the poor are compelled by
excessive rents to pack themselves into
the narrowest space. In Maryland there are
Sl,7OS dwellings To 5S3,03j persons, OF a
little more than seven to each house. There
are. however, only 5.616 families more than
there are houses, which gives proportion
atelv only about third as MANY cases in
which there is more than one family IN a
habitation. The population of Maine is but
So more than that of MARYLAND, while the
number of families is 6,403 more A Maine
family, on the average, consists of 5.t3 per-
sons. ltwould then appear that more OF the
hardy farmers and seamen OF that State con-
tract marriages, and that they are less pro-
life than the people of Maryland, or even of
New-York. In Maine the average of per-
sons to habitation is trifing fraction above
six, or about the same as in New-Iork.
In the last-named State, 1861 deaths
occurred during the year ending July /,
1850. This is, in round numbers, one TO
every IS persons. In MARYLAND there were
1854 deaths, or one 10 every 90 persons. In
Maine there were 7,5i5, or one to every :,
persons. New-York is thus more healthy
than MARYLAND, and Maine ahead of both.
We can well understand that the pure up
land air of that State should he more
wholesome than the civilizations OF the
marshv Eastern Shore. But in point OF
health and long life, New-Mexico seems
to carry off the palm.
In New-York there are l10,69S farms
under cultivation, or one TO each 1929 per-
sons. In Maryland there are 2l,S60 farms,
or one to 26.7l persons. In Maine there
are 6.760, or one 10 every 1888 persons.
In this respect again, the new State is
ahead of the two old ones
In New-York the number of manufacture
ing establishments, whose yearly product
exceeds $500, is 1885, or one to each l2s
persons. In Maryland there are 1858, OF
one to $50 persons In Maine 3,6s2. or one
10 l5S persons.
The number of slaves in Maryland i:
81. 36S, or S73 more than ten years ago, il
1910. In lSl0there were lll,5o2, in l,20
lO7 1895. in 1880, lO2,294. During the
wear previous TO taking this census there
ran away from that State 2l5 slaves
and 1875 were manumitted. The number o.
free persons of color according to the pre-.
sent census is 74,O77 in 1910 it was $4,000
