Strength of the Disunion States.


The white population Of the States, in
which the secession sentiment is active,
was, by lie United States Census as fol-
lows:
South Carolina 274 563
Mississippi 2:6,73l
Georgia 52l ,527
Florida 47,2O3
Alabama 426,5l3
Total 1856, $40
This is little less than the total pop
ulation of the State OF Illinois at the pre-
sent time. The increase in FIVE State.
named during the last ten years, would
probably give total white population
now of about 2,Ooo. 600, which is about
100000 less than the present population
Of Ohio. The total colored population
Of those States, which certainly adds
nothing to their strength, should they
embroil themselves in war, was, by the
Census of 1850 /, 1853, 7ss-being near
ly equal to the total white population.
The State of South Carolina, in which
the secession spirit appears to be most
rampant. had white population, in so
of 1868. and colored population OF
3o4,634. Her present white population
is about double that of Cook county,
illinois. and about equal to that Of Ham
iIton county, Ohio, or Of Kings county,

The Electoral Vote.

California and Oregon having cast
their vote for Lincoln and Hamlin, the
electoral vote may be summed up as fol-
lows:
Lincoln and Hamliu 18O
Breckinridgc and Lane 72
Bell aud Everett 80
Douglas and johnson IL
Whole Electoral Vote 3O3
Linc"ln's maj. over all, 81
Thus Lincoln's majority is larger than
the total electoral vote of tho States
which are now medtating secession.

Indian Affairs i'm Arizona

We take the following from the Messilla
letter to the st. Louis Republican, dated on
the 3lst ultimo:
The Pinal scout has returned to the Rio
Grande. These troops were ordered out ioT
a winter campaign without transportation or
forage, and that, too, in country most de sti.
tute of every thing and the only wonder is.
that they ever returned. Too much credit
can not be given to the officers Of the scout,
for had not the utmost caution been exercised
not an animal would ever have returned.-
AS it is, however, the scout has been sue
cessful one. Twenty Indians have been
killed, fifty. three prisoners taken, some two
hundred andifty horses and mules captured,
and several villages burned and this, too,
without the loss OF single man. What
the result will be in the end, it is hard to
say. From the Rio Grande to the Colorado
the country is left unprotected, and most
likely the Overland Mail Company will be
the sufferers, for vengeance these Indians
will have for the killed OF their tribe. Some
troops ought to have been left in the eoun-
try for the protection Of the mail stations (;
but, as this has not been done, the consequent
ces must be taken.
The Mmbres Indians have commenced
their aepredations again. Settlers in
the vicinity Of the Slot Springs" have
been driven to the Rio Grande for pro-
lection, and many persons residing near the
copper mines have sent their families 10 also.
Four Mexicans were killed on the night OF
the 27th, at Amoles, a little town some IF
teen miles below Messilla, and q quntity of
stock stolen By these same Indians.

Extraordinary Affair at the New
buTEh LunatiC Asylum.

The Cleveland Herald Of Monday evening
has the following singular story of the es'
cape of one of the inmates from the New.
burgh Asylum:
Among the inmates OF the Northern Ohio
Lunalic Asylum is a person named Whee-
don, once highly respectable citizen in
good circumstances, and said to have been
a member of the former coal firm of |. C.
PendIeton g. Co. He has been in the Asy.
lum for some time.
For some time past he has manifested a
strong disposition to escape, and the utmost
care and vigilance has been exercised to
Illustrate his designs, but not always with
success. Before being placed in his sleep.
ing room at night he has been always strip
ped and carefully examined to prevent the
secreting Of any instrument, and all Of his
clothes but his shirt, Pantaloons and stock.
ings taken away. In spite of these precau
tiens, he has succeeded three times within
a few days in escaping from his room.
About two weeks since he took a set OF
false teeth out OF his mouth, and by constant
work cortrived with them to saw hole
through the floor of his chamber, making a
hole sufficient to admit OF his dropping
through into another part of the house, and
then escaping. He was traced and caught
at the house of Mr.. Pendletoh, on Euclid
street.
A few diyssince be secreted pin and with
that exceedingly unlikely instrument, MAJ =
aged to pick the lock OF his door and esca-
ped into the hall where he was fortunate y
arrested. He then stated that pin was u
more value than $4,000 when he wished tc
escape from room.
Last Saturday night he was carefully ex
umined, as usual, before being placed in biz
room, but succeeded in secreting a small
brass ring, split in one part, in his hair
On being locked up for night, he set tt
work, and with the ring he cut through the
window sash and shutter, so as to enable
him to remove them from the window. HI
then took the coverlid Of the bed, and tore
it into strips, with which he made ropt
reaching nearly to the ground, distance o
some twenty five OF thirty feet. Some o
the cotton batting with which the coverIi'
was wsdded, he placed in his stockings tt
protect his feet, as he had no shoes. Thel
dressing himself in shirt, trowsers and stock
ings. he slid down the rope and escaped.
Striking across the country to Eight Mill
Lock, he then took the towpath Of the cana
and walked down to University Heights
where he arrived yesterday afternoon. Th
officers of the Asylum were on his track
and with officer Mcfrath, Of the Police
came on him yesterday Sunday afternoon
He was very quiet when arrested, and spok
freely Of his escape, and made no resstanc
to being taken back 10 the Asylum. w
question whether this series of extraordina
ry escapes can be we'll matched.

Christianity, when properly preaehed, to
drive sin from the world, to assist In giving
the true causes for the relative, II not sbsO.
lutte, decline Of the church. The character
of the members Of a church for piety and
devotion to the cause of Christ will, as a
general thing, be true reflection Of that
Of their pastor. II he deVotes his whole
time and attention exclusively to the preach
ing or the Gospel, and does not step aside
now and then to inhict political sermons
upon an unwilling congregation, or apollo.
gixe for the raid Of John Brown, and attempt
to elevate him to an equality with Christ, in
his devotion to q cause which he could not
hope to accomplish without violating the
laws Of his country, he will find no neces.
sity for calling upon his brethren "to get off
from the fence;" but, on the other hand, if
he SO far forgets himself, an advocate of
| Christ, as to become a mere stump speaker
for political party, and persists, in season
and out Of season, in forcing unwilling ears
to listen to his denunciations of the doctrines
of another political party, declaring that
"God is on the side of right, and that he
will not let these monstrous schemes Of mi.
guilty be perpetrated on a free people;" I
say when he thus branches off from the duty
which bis Master called him to perform, it
is only natural 10 suppose that the flock will
follow the shepherd. And when events are
determined, and the result is directly oppo-
site what he predicted it would be, it is an
inevitable necessity that confidence must
be lost in him Or his Master. And ever
body will say, if he is so easily mistaken
about things of this world, how can we trust
in him when discoursing OF things Of the
next! The fact is, this kind Of outside op
eratons brings preachers down on to Level
with other politicians, and their cause on to
level with political party with its thou
sand miserable tricks. When preachers
neglect the sublime moral laws of God, ant
spend their time and His, hypercritically
finding fault with the municipal regulation.
of the country In which they live, they vir
tually declare that they have more conf
dence in our civil laws to produce a refor
nation in q people, than in the teachings
and example OF Christ himself. In brief
Mr.. Preacher, these are some OF the reasons
why your emissions hag," and why "thert
are no recruits to supply vacancies in the
ministry for want of men and means" J.
