ELIZA BUrrER.-Eliza Butter Is one Of those for
unate persons who was happy as to be born In VIZ
onia and has, no doubt as she Ia not altogether BLACK
some Of that rich blood which only courses through the
veins of the first families She further had the good
fortune TO be born in that happy class which never has
TO take thought of tomorrow or trouble itself with
,le care Of it's own support in evidence whereof IA
the fact that of ELIAS two children, one OF them,
so was 40 well cared for by her master that he sold
him to 90 where Eliza never has heard and probably
never will hear news of him again, good, bad, or in
ditIerent-whch ought TO be a great relief to Eizas
parental mind.
But Eliza is old, and, we fear doting for, without
considering how much care she is relieved from by'
come, all the way from Alexandria, Va 10 beg for
money buy her remaining child. This child Is
daughter and would command 81, 500 any moment for
tie New-Orleans market. Indeed, her master, who
seems weak sort of man, has, in Difference to the fee
bic old mothers Wishes absolutely refused this sum,
and offers to sel the child to Eliza for half the money

of going to that pleasant climate where good-ooking
young colored girls always command the highest con-
alteration for their youth and beauty, we will take
charge of any they choose to contribute and hand
them over to Eliza aforesaid.

Population OF HEw-YoRK CITY -IscREAsE or
OVER 800 GOO SINCE lSj0-The census returns for this
city all in, with the exception of the Second Ward
and one district in The Twenyfrst Ward, the bounda-
ries Of which district are Twenty and Thirty
eighth streets, and Fourth and Sixth avenues. The
population Of this district ID estimated II 900. The
increase of l9l 1903 since 1855 falls short of of the
estimates that have been made and from the fact that
the census was taken in midsummer, when many fam-
lies out of town. the figures doubtless fall below
the actual advance Of population since that period
