The FREE AND SLAVE States. AT the
time of the adoption Of the Federal Constitu-
ton, there were seven free States and six
slave States, nearly equally divided as to
wealth, Since that time there has been
admitted an equal number of free and
slave States, there now being sixteen of
the former and fifteen of the latter. Slavery
has gained in extent of territory; but in all
the other essentials of poWer-wealth. civili-
cation, and comfort, she has fallen immeasur-
ably behind and, notwithstanding she ap.
pears to be graphing more and more of the
public domain, and still grasping the reins Of
the general government, she will continue to
lose till she is finally distanced and sinks into
obscurity.
Accompanying his annual report on the
finances. the Secretary Of the Treasury has
prepared table of the wealth and population
of the several States and Territories The
former item seems to be made up, so far as the
separate States are concerned, from the census
returns of 1850; but it shows the following
facts So

Property Of the slave States. 3,99S s57,749

was ranked as the first State, both in wealth
and population. Now she is the fourth State
in regard to population, but probably the sixth
or seventh in wealth. In 1850, five States
were ahead Of her.
