roRTEp CRIME The latest
national statistics Of crime are found
in the abstract Of the seventh census
From that, it appears that the whole
number oepersons convicted of crime
in the United States for the year end
ing June. 1850. was about $1,000 /;
of these. Ii 900 were natives Gnclu.
ding colored prisoners) and $4,000
foreign born, BY the same authority.
and TO the same date, we are informed
that our population was composed Of
1877 ,5Oa natives Of its soil. 2,2l6,-
1923 born in foreign countries, and
30,O14 whose nativity could not b.
determined While We have, there
fore. but about one foreign resident to
nine native whites, there is fraction
over one foreign born criminal to eve
ry native, including black and white.
Such was the ratio Of crime in 1850,
and there is no reason to suppose II
has materially changed since that time
