This shows an increase in The city population
since 1850, period of three years, of $4,000,
which is unprecedented in the history of Detroit,
and exceled by that of few other cities in The
Union. If our population continues to increase
at the same rate until the next census, we shall
have population of $4,000 in 1860. When
our railroads are completed there is no reason
why it should not increase much more rapidly.

Too Much Attention. to Business.

This is a world ofinfexible commerce, in which
nothing is given away, but everything lis bought
and paid fors IF by exclusiye,aud absolute sur
render of ourselves to material pursuits, we mate
rialize the mind I'VE lose that class of, satisfac-
tons to which the mind lis the region and the
source. A young man in business, for instance,
begins to feel the exlerating glow of success, and
deliberately determines he will abandon himself
to its delicious whirl. He says to HIMSELF L will
think Of nothing but business until l. have made
SO much money! and then ] will begin new
ife.sz Twill gather, around me books and pictures
and friends. I will have knowledge, taste and
cultivation, scholarship, winning speech Il, and
graceful manners / will drink deep of the foun-
tains of classic lore. Philosophy shall guide me,
history shall instruct and poetry shall charm me-
Science shall open to me her, world of wonders
Ishall then remember my present life of drudge
cry, as one recalls troubled dream when MORN
ing has dawned' He keeps his self registered
VOW. He bends his thoughts forwards and places
them in the dust i Every power, affections, every
taste, except those his particular occupation calls
in play, is left to starve. Over the gateslof mind
he writes in letters which he who runs may read,
"No admittanee except on busness.'' In the
course oftime he reaches the goal of his desires,
but now nsulted nature begins to claim her re-
Venge. That which was once unnatural is now
natural to him. The enforced restraint has be-
come rigid deformity. He can no longer lift
his thoughts from the earth. Books and knowI-
edge, and wise discourse, and the amenities of art,
and the cordial of friendship, are like new words
on a strange tongue. To th0-lurd, smooth sur
faee of the soul, nothing genial. graceful or VIM
ming will cling. He cannot even purge his voice
of its fawning tone, or pluck from his face the
mean money-getting mask, which the child does
not look at without ceasing to smile. Amid the
graces and ornaments ofwealth, he is like blind
man in a picture gallery. That which he has
done he must continue to do; he must accumulate
riches which he cannot enjoy, and contemplate
the dreary prospect of growing old without any
thing to make venerable or attractive, for age
without wisdom and without knowledne, is the
winters cold, without the winters fire.
