On the present basis Of representation, this city
wouh be entitled TO nine Members Of Congress, instead
Of six, ne now returned under the apportonment Of
1850 Including part Of Williamsburghl. The Seven
teenih Ward alone would return one member, and the
Eleventh Ward would lie entitled almost of itself to
another. The figures show very significantly the
ssuh of the uptown movement Of people. Nearly
all the down town Wards have decreased in the
Der Of their Inhabitants or at standstill. The
Second, Third and Fifth Wards have largely in
creased in business point of view though they have
ost in residents The Seventh Ward increase is due
mainly to the depopulation of the other lower wards
for business purposes and the increase of tenement
houses TO accommodate the poor people whom trade has
scattered.
p Brooklyn the ratio of increase will be very much
greater than in this city. The Eleventh Ward of
Brooklyn, which in 1853 contained 1900, now has
over Il, 000 Ths ward is very wealthy, perhaps the
richest in the city Of churches. 1t may be interesting to
note that the great bulk Of Brooklyn property is in the
hands Of men born in the Eastern States.
The value Of the real and personal estate of the City
Of Nev-York is set down at s702,00oOoO. That Of
Brookly we could not ascertain.
The work of suIerutendug the Census in this city
lie copfded, 10y tie Marshal, to DIR. Ipgraham and in
Kings County TO DR. 4. p. Norris These gentlemen
will receive the returns, inspcct, correct coate, and
forward them to the Bureau at Washington. They
do not expect to have this work finished before the LIST
of November.
After the best efforts of the Marshals, it is feared
that the total population, returned BY them, will
a short from 80 OO0 to l0oO 600 of the reanunber of
rsaLiants Of the City Of Newfork, owing to the alb
tenoe Of many citizens from town, the stupidity and
wul Misrepresentation Of some persens and the ab-
out, refusal Of not few to respond to the questions
This viii be equivalent TO loss of one representative
in Congress. Those who have not been called upon
wilt confer favor upon Marshal Rynders by notifying
him of the fact when he will send his Deputy to them,
or receive their statements at his Office.
