PRESIDENTIAL STATISTICS. Since the formation of

PRESIDENTIAL STATISTICS. Since the formation of
the United States Constitution, the people have
elected twelve persons to the Presidential chair, all
Of whom are now dead with the exception of Martin
Van Buren, and General Pierce. During the same
period Of time thirteen persons have occupied the
position of Vice President, but four of whom
living: Martin Van t6uren, John Tyler. George NJ.
Dallas, and Willard Fillmore. The President who
lived longest after vacaling the Presidential chair,
was John Adams, who survived that period twenty
five years. His son, John Quincy Adams, and
James Madison, rank him in tina, respect,
both living nineteen years. Mr.. Polk died within
three months after he lief. the seat of Government,
and General Washington lived but little two
years after he returned the shades of Mount Yer
non. Among the Vice Presidents, Aaron Burr lived
thirty years after his term of Office EXPIRED and
John Adams was survivor about the same 1erod of
time. 1t is singular coincidence that three of our
Presidents who figured in the days of the Revolution,
expired the 4th of July: John Adams, Thomas
Jefferson, and James Monroe, the two frst named
both dying the same anniversary, being the ftieth
one from the time independence declared in
l776. Samuel L. Southland, of New Jersey, who,
President pro TEN. of the Senate, performed the
duties of Vice President under Mr.. Tyler when ne
was elevated the Chief Magistacy by the death of
Gen. Harrison, died while serving in that capacity in

RAILRoADs IN THE WEST. Some idea of the bu-
siness done upon the railroads of the West may be
formed from the following:
few days since, there started from Detroit. a
train of eghfyfre freight in string propelled
by two of The most powerful locomotives IN the coun-
try. The train was bound for Chicago, and the
greater part of its load carried to the mer
chants of that thriving village. Since the first of
April just such trains have started almost daily from
the depot of the Central Rail Road for the same
place. On Thursday evening passenger train left
the depot for the West, composed of twenty-nine of
the splendid passenger andInggage cars, of this
company. containing nine hundred passengers. and
almost one quarter Of mile long.
