TIE NEdPOLITdN EXILES.

The following address has been forwarded to the Nea-
politan exiles on their arrival in England
Bnornkns During the last month we have been ex-
pecting your arrival day by day, anxious to testify by
hearty welcome the affection and reverence that we feel
for your sublime fortitude, your heroic suffering in behalf
of liberty in our common atherland Not we alone. For
this free and powerful people of America, ever foremost
innoble sentiments, was preparing by the thousand voices
Of it's press--by those practical measures which it knows
how to use in order to express a great idea-a reception
worthy of itself and of you, thus proving the moral
solidarity of a free people with the martyrs of freedom.
You have chosen Great Britain rs your harbor of refuge,
in order that the least possible distance may divide you
from our beloved Italy, which, thrilling with the desire
aud The will to achieve her own redemption, has need Of
the toils and eounsels of her best ones. Accept, then,
our joyful congratulations which we send across the
ocean our friends in England will have FASTENED in
In our stead to grasp your hands, and to assure you OF
the love and admiration that every true Italian feels for
you. In common with them and with the Italian people
we share the faith and efforts that alone can create a coun-
try mistress Of her own destinies. Setting aside all ques-
tons rs to forms of government, we desire to see the
banner of Italian right, of national sovereignty unfuried-
to sec it triumph against every foreigner from Sicily to
the Alps. Around this banner every italian patriot can
rally, sure that the struggle will not cease until the last
foreign soldier shall have repassed our frontiers.
We trust at no far distant day to grasp your hands I'M
der this same banner-grcci', white, and red-on our
native soil.

This city had at the last census u population of 629,
904. Its growth for the last sixty years has been at the
rate of 4 6 per cent. annually. The grounds for this
growth and extension have become stronger within the
last twenty years than at any former period, so that we
may assume IN equal ratio of increase for the next thirty
or forty years The island is much better adapted to a
large population now than it was in the years 1Sl0-'40;
and If our city authorities have due regard to the admo-
nitions of such gentlemen es DR.. Griscom and Others who
are familiar with the physical condition and wants of the
several wards, the island may be made as healthy as any
portion of the world.
The introduction Of Croton water has added much to
the ability of the island to sustain n large population.
The construction of the Central Park will add still further
not only to the convenieIe, and comfort of the masses,
but will add largely to the attractions Of the city as o
residence for the WEALTHY.
The foreign trade and the domestic trade OF the city
have kept pace with the increase of population or, In
other words, the enlargement of the first absolutely re-
qnired q larger population to carry il on.
This increase of business at deccnnial periods is shown
in the following figures

If New York Is true to itself in its financial and com
mercial movements, the city will have in the year 1875
a population OF a million and a half, a foreign export
trade of two hundred millions, an import trade Of three
hundred millions, and a coasting trade of still greater
value. The railroad system of the State is now com
pletcd, its canals may be made to contribute four fold
what they now do by the extensive use of steam, and the
whole contribute more largely than heretofore to the vast
and certin growth of the metropolis. The great inter
csts of the interior and Of the city are 30 closely identi-
fed, each depending upon the other, that whatever af-
fects one, ~fsvorably or otherwise, will soon react upon
the other. d
We have prepared a summary showing the population
of the city, of other portions of the State, and of the
whole State, at each taking of the census from 1890 to
1855. no this we now add an estimate, based upon the
growth of the past sixty, as to the growth for forty years
