10 From the n. o. Daily Picayuno
of Sunday last, we extract the follow
ing article, in reference to the
Decline in the old States.

The returns of the census exhibit
some results that were unexpected.
Though the final footings are not pre-
sented so rs to enable contrast in all
the elements of human industry to be
carefully made, enough is known to
lead us to suspect that the deductions to
be drawn from the facts collected will
overthrow many theories in regard to-
population and progress which have had
most currency. In the New England
States, little advance is noted. Losses
and hard times have diminished the
value of property, and the census shows
but little increase of population over
that returned in 1850.
In lS40 New England is reported as
producing 100000 bushels of wheat.
In 1850 they yielded but l,O00000-a
decline of fifty per cent. 1t is believed
that the census of 1860 will show a still
more marked decline than was noted
in the previous decade.
In New York tho number of sheep
has decreased more than 100000 in
thirty years; and within four years
the decrease is said to be near fifty per
cent, while tho decline in tho number
of other species of stock will probably
not be less than fifteen per cent. New
York porduced in IS45 13,Dl,77O
bushels of wheat, but last year her pro-
duct of this staple fell as low as 5000,
600 bushels.
1t is plain that there is a point reached
in population and value of real estate
when States annually send forth swans
of emigrants to the New and cheap
lands of the wilderness, thus building
up new States with such magic speed.
| 1t begins to be demonstrated by the
| statistics of population, that tho ques-
ton of price of lands governs the direc-
ton of emigrants more than the char
| acter of the institutions of New State.
The employment of slave labor in
wolves the necessity of larger plnnta-
tions, instead of small farms, and the
occupancy of large tracts prevents
that dense population Of whites found
in the free States. But this does not
diminish the prosperity of the State,
or reduce its productive capacity. 1t is
really question of doubt whether u
country sparsely populated by whites,
yet cultivated by slave labor, does not
soon attain higher fixed value and max o
IL more valuable annual return than ono
| possessing equal advantages wholly
| cultivated by white freemen. The cen
sus now about to be completed will
furnish some interesting facts bearing
on this subject.

The Art Of Dining at a HoteL.--If

The Art Of Dining at Hotel.--lf
you have taste for delicacies and diplo-
macy, you can slip a quarter into your
hand and then tumble for a moment with
the back part of y.ur coat collar,--the
quarter some way disappears, and John
will expedate things for you in a most
mysterious manner. But a still better
plan is to place your quarter on the table
under an inverted wine glass. The glass
plays the part Of a convex lens the quar-
Ter assumes gigantic dimensions, and
John takes it to be half dollar. The
exertions that he makes to secure it are
really surprising. You get well along
with your fish before your neighbours soup
plate is removed, and the desseh chascs
up chicken with amazing rapidity. Then
at the close of the rcpast, if you are an
artist, and wish to catch the expression of
a deep disappointment, lust remove the
glass, return the quarter to your pocke',
and walk off unconcernedIy. John has
had his reward; he has enjoyed the plea
sures of anticipation, and there is good
reason to believe thatthcy far exceed thosc
Of realty. But never occupy the same
seat again.-Timcs C0rrcSpondcncc.
