Ihe census telgF1s as published eford
Us Qhmpses Of the Hterial co1ditieR Of
The country. ar7l fhgngb shey ore bnt
gIimpses, scattered here aH8 @ fhsF
yield us some curious and significant IL
formation. In the first place it is quite
apparent that there has been a serious
decline in the population of most eastern
cities. A few barely hold their own, and
OE5sner - hskold Insia1ess of decrease,
Providence, Rhode Island, has actually
experienced a adecrease; the same is the
case with Syracuse, New York. Even
Of The State of Ohio The Cleveland Dem
ocrat says; cit is feared the population,
instead ofadvancing, has slightly deereas-
ed within the last ten years, by emigra-
tion and otherwise. Some of our cotem-
poraries are warning their readers a
gainst extravagant anticipaiions in rela-
ton 10 the increase in their respective
localities. The Boston Advertiser re-
marks that those who expect much from
that city will be. doomed to disappoint-
ment. The census returns of Cincinnati
do not hold out as good a prospect as had
been expected, and it is thought the ag-
gregate population viii not exceed $780,
600. Baltimore has also shown a small
er increase than was anticipated. From
most parts of New England, particularly
New Hampshire, a decline IS apparent.
On the other hand, the great West is
making tremendous strides. Illinois will
show population of 100000 against
$4,000 in 1850, an increase of nearly
one million. All Of the Northwestern
States give nearly as good account OF
themselves. 1t is likely that when the
next apportionment of Congress is made
that Illinois will gain or z members,
Wisconsin four or five, Iowa and Mime
sofa four or FIVE. The south western
states, particularly Arkansas and Texas,
have also grown considerably within the
last decade, and will be enabled to IN
crease their representation in Congress.
Westward the star of empire takes its
way. The great tide pushes onward to-
ward the Pacific, and ere long we may
hear that the prosperity of Illinois and
Wisconsin is eliminating as is now that
of the hitherto progressive State of Ohio.
The aggregate population of the United
States, as shadowed forth by the returns
will not be short of thirty-two millions,
an increase of nine millions during the
last ten years. How fast the boy
grows.

How q Lady CanEassed hi Clare.

A correspondent of the Waterford Mail
gives the following anecdotes of the late
election for Clare; "The contest turned
wholly upon personal popularity, and cal
cutt, who is a farmer-like, Jolly Irish
gentleman, was better calculated to win
upon the people than the fashionable
young captain of crack corps. His wife,
too, would make the fortune of any can
didate. A fine, dashing woman, she rode
about the country in the carriage with her
husband In his canvassing expeditions,
and when ne was one day in public
house, seeing a parish committee, and
she was outside in the open bareuche
awaiting his return, the friezecOats gath
cred around the vehicle, and giving three
cheers for her honor, called upon her to
make speech Prompt as lightning she
replied Il won't trouble you my friends.
with my oratoTys hat 7 give you a song.
which sc Irishman with music in bis soal
would any day rrefer 10 speeoh y and
gith lhSt Ia clear and pleasant voice,
she struck up, Let Erin reme Ser. and
followed the ditty with several other we'll
known melodies of Tommy Moore. A
person who witnessed the scene, assured
me there was nothing incongruous about
it; the lady sung her best, and entered
into the spirit of her song, and the frieze
coats listened entranced. From that mo-
ment forth, during the canvass, she new
er appeared in public without having to
sing a song" I
