PROGRESS OF NEW ORLRANs.-The returns
of the census, so far as received, Justify the
expectation that the population of The city of
New Orleans will be shown TO be near 200 900.
This is q result as astonishing as it is crafty
ing. 1t shows that New Orleans is at this
moment one of the most prosperous and most
rapidly increasing cities in the Union. No
city in the United States has increased, dur
ing the last TWO years, in anything like the
proportion exhibited by New Orleans. While
during The ten years from 1850 to 1860, we have
gained $4,000, or 66 per cent in the two years
from 1879 to 1850, we have gained $4,000, or
over 30 per cent; a rate of increase not equall-
ed, we venture 10 say, by any large city In the
United States. Of course we cannot reason
ably expect that such an extraordinary rate of
progress will be main tanned for any great
length of time but we can reasonably hope
that, with continued health, and with proper
exerton on the part of our citizens to develop
the resources of New Orleans, she will, before
many years, assume her natural position as
the second, If not the first, city of the Union

IMPORTATION oFS STINGLEss BEES FROM
CENTRAL AMERICA.-Mr. A. 0. Moore, of New
York. who went to Central America last year,
has just returned from Guatemala, and has
brought with him two sWarms of the stingless
bees common to that country, which he has
given in charge of Mr.. Parsons, of Flushing
who will propagate them for the agricultural
department of the Patent Office, which will
in due time distribute them, if il is found that
they can be kept in any part of the United
States. These bees are of two varieties one
large and one small, and both quite different
in all their habits from the honey bees COM
mon with US. For one thing, there appears to
be but two classes-workers and queens The
largest class are about the size of our common
bees, the queen being much larger and while
laying eggs appear very clumsy, and unable
to fly. The honey is deposited in egg. g.shaped
caps ules, more than half the size of hens eggs,
fastened 10 plate of wax only upon one side,
and sometimes arranged quite horizontal in
tiers one above another.

Fall ofa HoHse.-About II O'Clock on Tues
day night last the west foundation wall OF
the building on south Franklin between 18th
and 14th, occupied by o. II. Dennis gave way
and fell with "a loud crash, alarming not only
the inmates, but most persons in the neigh
borhood. For several weeks past workmen
have been engaged i'll digging deep cellar in
the vacant lot on the west, for Il handsome
store soon to be erected, and in doing SO had
gone several feet below the foundation wall
also of the wall of the brick tenement on the
west both of which had been underpinned and
propped, and was thought to have been made
secure. The giving away, no doubt, was caused
by the settling of the green mortar, and the
sliding out of the wall.

A LITTLE SCENE.-Yest sterday sight seldom
witnessed was presented to the patrons of one
of the city railroads. In one of the cars, on its
trip up town, there were three pairs of twins
each representing nationality. First, near
est the door an American mother with two
fine boys. Second, Scotch mother with
boy and girl; these had rather meagre look
but the mother stated they were very healthy.
Third, were two boys of Irish parents ;
they were fair samples of children. On
the opposite side of the car sat a mo-
ther who had an interesting trio of trip
lets. These little ones were seven mon his old,
and were looking finely. While the attention
of the passengers was taken up with survey
ing these little ones, two ladies nered the ca r
aud to add to The establishment of the passen-
gers, they were twins also. The ladies were
about twentythree years OF age, while that Of
the babies was respectively four seven, and
nine months. One of the mothers who had
including the twins, four children with her,
stated that she had five more children al home.

COLLISION IN MID-AIR.-On Saturday after
noon, machinist in Jersey City went on board
of one of the ferry boats for lhe purpose of
crossing over to New York, but, suddenly
changing his mind he turned and made jun y
for the bridge. At the same instant, an old
gentleman from Saltsvllle made a leap for the
boat. The two bodies came in violent coIli-
sion, grasped each other, and fell plump into
the river. After fioundering about for while,
the men were rescued without further damage

about one thousand men. A few days since,

Richmond and York River Railroad, passed

There are now in the shops, nearly completed,
two or three locomotives for Southern roads,
and one or two excellent engines, to be shipped
to Cuba. We have no doubt that the railroad
directory of Virginia and elsewhere can pro-
cure engines of Messrs. Jos. r. Anderson &
Co, OF as good quality, and on as fair terms,
as they can be had in the North, and we are

nineteen have died; but the other two are not
yet dead. Besides these, six cattle of Corne-

Opposed to Changs.-Many masters of oyster
craft that trade regularly to this port during
the fall and winter months, are preparing 10
petition the President of the James River and
Kanawha Canal Company to allow them to
retain their old berths in the Dock, instead of
requiring them TO enter the Western Section.
They give as a reason, that accommodations
have been provided for them where they are
that they will be convenient to the Seamens'
Bethel and Sailors Reading r Room-and that
the merchants with whom they now deal I'M
derstand their trade and can aid them materi-
ally. The Western Section, we have no doubt,
will be used principally by lumber and plaster
crafts, and thus make sufficient room at pres
ent for all other shipping.

FRENCH CENsoRsnIr OF TIE PREss.-The

FRENCH CENSORSHIP OF THE PREss-The
extent 10 which the foreign press is watched,
may be judged from the pains and expense
which this vigilance occasions to the Govern
ment On the top-story of the hotel of the
Minister of the Interior exists long, low
room, surrounded by desks, at which sixty
four clerks are employed TO read the foreign
papers and mark the articles destined to be
reproduced in the Paris journals as we'll AS
those ordered TO be seized, and the reason why
is always given. Men OF all nations, French
men acc uainted with all languages, are seated
there. and as fast the journals are perused
they are flung through a sliding panel in the
wall, with their distinctive and appropriate
qualities inscribed upon them, for the exami-
nation Of the clerks in the adjoining bureau
who have nothing to do but 10 translate the
articles marked whether for circulation or
suppression, is no matter. In this examina-
ton there seems TO exist no kind of rule; every
thing depends upon the public feeling to be
fiauered or subdued at the moment. What is
permitted to pass one day is vigorously sup
pressed the next, and uics peYSd. This it is
which renders this minute examination daily
necessity.
Little do our English journals imagine
when they pen with such fiery hot zeal their
rounded phrases, which in frequent cases have
nothing in 'em, that they may be uninten-
uonaly assisting the very cause against
which they have been directing their fancied
batteries. Some of the reasons given for
seizure which have met my eye are curious in
the extreme. Thus, short time ago, against
