ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILE RACE
The San Jose Telegraph says that Mr.. ].
r. Pico, after close calculation of his
powers of endurance, aud the speed of Cal
ifornia horse-fesh, has bet $2,50O that he
will ride one hundred and fifty miles in the
unprecedented short time of six hours and
thirty minutes; or, at the railroad speed of
more than tweety-three miles an hour, not
allowing the time lost in mounting and
dismounting the different horses which he
proposes to use. The bet is made with Mr..
r. F. Green, and the race is to come of
over the Santa Clara race course on the
first day of November next. No one in
San Jose, except Piso himself, believes it
possible for him to win the bet, as there are
very few California horses capable of run
ming fast enough to enable him to accom-
plish the feat in the time specified, without
allowing anything for stopping and start
ing with fresh animals.
The Nevada Democrat., 1860-10-09
Increase Of the Population I'm the United

SthNCDs
A late number of the Philadelphia Press
presents some interesting calculations rela-
tive to the increase of population in the
United States. From the partial returns
already made of the census of 1860, 1t is
evident that the extraordinary ratio of in-
crease which has prevailed ir former years
has been fully maintained during the last
decade. This is an annual addition to the
population of three per cent, and IL Is
singular fact that since the first census was
taken, in 1890, this ratio has been adhered
to with wonderful certainty. The popula-
ton of the country in 1890 was 3,92O,S27;
and adding three per cent annually, the es-
timated result under that rule, and the Of
fetal census returns did not in any year
show variation of 100000. In 1850, the
discrepancy was only 53,s72-the estimated
population being 23,13S,OO4 while the CEN
sus gave 23,191,876. The estimated popu-
lation of 1860, according to this rule, Is
80, ,9S6,S51, and there is little reason 10
doubt the close approximation OF that esti-
mate to the actual population. Should q
similar ratio of increase, which has prevail
ed for the past seventy years, continue for
ty years longer, the population OF the
country in 1900 will be 1886 ,542; and il
we are engaged in no desolating wars, or
violent intestine commotions, before that
period, this estimate will doubtless prove
very nearly correct. The most thickly pop
ulated State of the Union, in 1850, was
Massachusetts,, which contained 1880 In
habitants to every square mile. 1t would
require population of about 36S,oOo,oOC
in the present States and Territories to es
tablish in them density equal to that Of
the Old Bay State in 1850; and there is nc
reason to believe that the present ratio o.
increase will materially diminish until al
the new and sparsely settled States an(
Territories are as thickly populated as Mas
sachusetts is at the present time. Men who
are now thirty years of age may reasonably
expect to live until the United States at
tans population of l0O,OO0,o0O.

The AUBURN EscAPEs.---The Sheriff of
Placer county offers reward of 1900 for
the delivery at Auburn of the thirteen pris-
oners who escaped from the Jail at that
place, on the 4th instant. A proportionate
amount will be paid for the apprehension
of any one of them. The most of the es-
capped prisoners are supposed to have come
into Nevada county, and more precious
set of rascals were never turned loose upon
community. Four of them had already
been convicted and sentenced to the Peni-
tertiary.

OREGON SENAToRs.-A dispatch from
Yreka says that Nesmith and Baker had
been elected to the U. S. Senate from Ore.
gon, the former for the long term, to sue
ceed Lane, and the latter for the short term.
They were elected on the 34th ballot, Nes-
mith receiving q votes, and Baker 26. On
several previous ballots they each came
within one vote of being elected. The dis
patch says there was a complete fusion of
the Douglas men and Republicans; but the
fusion could only have been partial as the
two parties combined have some 35 votes
on Joint ballot.
