Rail roads and Population.

The Chicago Democratic Press has a
calculation going to show that by the
year 1869 Chicago will have a population
of one million. Hunts Magazine has an
article. the design Of which is to demon
strate that the Lake Cities, and the cities
of the upper Mississippi will ere long he
the principle cities of the country, and
it is shown that New \ DIRK cannot expect
to maintain its position always as the
principal city of the Union. Chicago has
thus far duplicated its population in three
yearS and half It takes New York sic
teen years to do the same thing, and the
reasons are given to prove that the same
ratio in favor of Chicago will continue
until it outstrips New York.
Perhaps it will; but we have an idea
that the rapid increase of rail roads all
over the country, will have tendency
to diifuse population over the whole coun-
try rather than aggregate it in spots. and
that calculations now made will from that
cause fail. The tendency of Rail Roads
is to rapidly diffuse to remotest hooks
all the productions of earth and manu-
features, and to correSpondingly difuse
population. The result is not perhaps
vet witnessed because rail roads are yet
very partially constructed, and because
more particularly, they are so construct
cd as to break and interrupt transit al
various points requiring transhipments
and delays, the tendency of which is tc
build up particular points. Our opinion
is that the spirit Of the age demands ant
will soon have railroads traversing The
country in unbroken lines, when the
causes that build up large cities will b
corresponding diminished Asatpresen
contemplated, there will be large gal
at Chicago between the terminus Of tn,
Lake Shore road and the commencement
of lines running further east. This vii
result to the benefit of Chicago, and t.
/ the detriment of this section and bushes
on the route genarally. The peopl,
would not stand such condition of thing
at Erie-they win not stand it always a
+ Chicago, or any place else, and as thes
distractions to the free flow Of bushes
in all directions are removed as the.
will gradually be-we have our doubts
whether any of the sores which now at
tlict the country in the shape Of grea
cities will increase much.

ARREST AND ESCAPE. - Hart, who
rdlked out of the Jail at Kenosha last
week, where he had been confined some
eight months on charge Of conspiracy,
was arrested in GAINESVILLE on Tuesday
last, by an officer of that place. The
officer with his prisoner secured seats
in the stage, and started for kenosha.
At Elkhorn, the officer took an outside
seat with the driver, leaving the prison
er in the inside of the coach with a num-
Der of other passengers. About , miles
east Of Elkhorn, Hart concluded to leave,
jumped out of the window of the coach,
and making straight wake for the
woods. After the stage had passed on
about miles, the passengers very coolly
informed the officer that his prisoner had
lett son suspicion" The last we heard
of the GAINESVILLE gTeeay he was vending
his way west on foot, with very reSpec-
table sized flea in his ear.-Racine t.4d-

PRAYER In schools.


ID" and X" have had their say at
some length on this question. and we
IS" propose afew words which we hope
will be the end for the present of the con
troversy.
The State Superintendent denies prayer
in schools for two reasons; frst-the
school has no business with religious or
scctarian teaching; and second, the teach
er who is paid for teaching children has
no right to use his time in prayer.
According to our view of the matter, a
prayer is not religious or sectarlan teach
ing. nor is it teaching of any character.
As we understand prayer it is simply
<llesire.' and never within our expert
ence did we hear a prayer which gave the
least evidence Of what sect the person
who uttered it belonged to, or what sect
If any he desired should most prosper.
All the prayers we ever heard, whether
from Catholic or Protestant, or from
whatever sect, were simply aspirations to
the common Parent universally acknowl-
edged, for blessings universally desired.
How the Superintendent or any person
else can make moral or religious, or sec
tartan, or any other kind of instruction
out of a prayer addressed to the general
Parent. we cannot imagine. Prayer looks
to us like simple unlocking and opening
of the heart for the time, to receive those
blessings which are supposed to await the
children of earth who desire them. So
much on the main point.
Whether thu time thus occupied should
be 50 employed after it is settled there
is nothing sectarian in the matter is
question to be determined we suppose,
by the utility of the thing itsclf,-and
This to some extent is Of course matter
of opinion. Our own opinion is, if the
teacher and school would really pray
when they profess to- they might spend
fully one half their time in prayer to the
benefit of all concerned.

NEWPORT SAFETY FUND BANK FAILED.
The Cincinnati GAZETTE of Monday
last contains the following item in its
Money article:
The Newport Safety Fund Bank, to
which we referred yesterday, has failed.
This is an event which need excite no
surprise, as it is the result of inherent
weakness. and if the public had taken
our advice, given a year ago, 1T would
have been put out ofthe way then, when
its circulation was probably not halfwhat
it is now, but its safety fund.-" which
consisted of stocks and mortgages, the
latter Of which nobody knew much about
offset in the eyes of the community, the
most elaring and dangerous Deficiencies
in its character. Wei, we shall see
whether the safety fund" will be >u1i-
Gent to redeem its circulation. No per
sol need suppose, because this concern
has gone, that others must follow.
