The U. S, Marshals return the population
Of Ohio at present as only 2,s49,os2, which
is an increase of s64,OOO, or ls3 per cent
A few hundreds viii be added to this by cor
rection, but probably not great deal This
is about lOO 600 less than we might reason
ably expect. The principal cause is the emi-
grafton 10 The Vest There is, in every State,
two tides of migration--one into and the
other out OF the State. In new States the
immigration is much the largest and thus the
State increases rapidly. This increase con-
tiuues till the population is about fifty or
sixty to the square mile, when the emigration
or flow out becomes the greatest The pop
ulation of New York is maintained by the
increase of her commercial cities. The pure
ly agricultural counties have not increased at
all. When land rises to be over $50 per
acre it is The interest of the farmer to sell
out and move West, where he can get toler-
ably improved places for $40 per acre
Moving is easy, and the comforts Of life ac-
Ctsolnlc. LUIS process mas CtfIleu OUT OF
Ohio in the last ten years, $1,000 people.
Half of these are in Iowa and Minnesota,
where whole communities may be found of
people come from Ohio.
In all probability this current out of the
State will be much less strong in the next ten
years; for two good reasons. The largest
part OF the good land this side of the great
desert plain east of the Rocky Mountains is
taken up, and good lands in the new States
are getting much higher, and there will be
hereafter but little speculation in going there
New Mexico is comparatively worthless
Utah almost equally so; and California and
Oregon are Distant and offer little induce
ment for farmer to move there.
Another and perhaps stronger reason is
that the immense increase Of capital, and the
prosperous state of commerce. which is likely
70 continue for several years, will give a
powerful impetus to our commercial towns,
and especially to our great mineral re-
giOn. There will be a rapid growth to
Cincinnati, Toledo and Cleveland and there
will be a great development of the iron and
coal region. So in the last ten years, since
1853, most disastrous to internal commerce,
the iron region of Ohio has grown rapidly.
We subjoin the growth of several counties on
the Ohio river, in which the iron and coal
business has been tOleTably successful:
