in terrible huttcr at the discovery
that, according to a decision recent

Court of Appeals, they have actual

furnishing murder in the first de-

statute which defined the mode OF

INCREASE OF POPULATION IN THE UNITED
STATES 1t is evident from the partial re-
turns already made by those who have been
taking the census of 1860, that the extraor-
binary ratio of increase of population which
has prevailed in former years has been full
~ maintained throughout the country dur
ing the last decade This is an annual adj
dition to the population of three percent,
and it is singular facts that since lT90
this ratio has been adhered to with Wonder
full certainty and fidelity. Beginning with
a population of 1929, S27 in 1880, and adj
ding three per cent annually, the estimated
result under that rule, and the official CEN
sus returns, did not in any year show a va
ration of 100000, and in 1850 the discre-
penney was only 53,s72 the estimated popu-
iation being %, $4,000 and the actual pop
ulation 20 1g1 SIG. The estimated Pcpula-
tion of 1860. according 10 this rule is 30
1851, and there is little reason to doubt
{ he closed approximation Of that estimate
to the actual population of the country.

TEXAS ALMANAC.

The History of Almanacs is an interest
ing study. Almost every one can remcm-
Der when the Almanac was considered in
fallible in matters of wind and weather,
when il rained, showed, slceted or sined as
the Almanac said. Who does not remcm-
Der how the old grandmother adjusted her
spectacles with solemn gravity and consult
cd the Almanac; and il it said rain on a
certain day, why rain ii must and the young
folks remain at home. And then, the time
was when many important farming and DO
nestle operations were all dependent upon
the Signs of the 10 diac. In those days the
Almanac was meagre affair, consisting al
most solely of astronomical observations.
conjectnres of the weather, few remarks
about the festival days, the Calendar, its his
tory, &c. In those days the engraving rep
resenting Human Anatomy was subject of
curious and wonderful study among children
aud superstitions people They looked with
amazement and awe upon the venerable far
mer who consulted this Observation-Disclosures
before the pigs and calves passed through
his hands. He was magician to whom
the Arcana Of the Almanac alone we're open
ed he was the favored one whose ken en-
braccd those secrets wisely hidden from the
vulgar and uninitiated. How little negroes
and their little white masters, stood trans
fixed with admiration, eyes staring and
hands stuffed deep into their brooches peck
eisl The Almanac was too great book TO
remain stationary The comicals Of the re-
nowned Dary Crockett, still fabulous hero
to many a child in the old States, found the

The NEXT CoNGREss.-0u readers will
remember what difficulty the Republicans
had in elccting n speaker in the present
House Of Representatives After long
time they succeeded in electing Gov. PEN
nington, of New Jersey, one of the most
moderate Of their stripe by a bare maiori-
ty. Well, according to the accounts which
have reached us of tho recent elections, two
Democratic members have been gained in
Pennsylvania, and three in Ohio; total five,
which being deducted from the Republican
side and added to the Democratic, will make
a difference Of ten votes against the Re-
publicans, as compared with the present
Congress. The Democrats have lost no
members as yet. They might have gained
three more in Pennsylvania, viz: in the I'd,
Sd and 4th Congressional Districts, If only
The Democrats and Bell men had co-opera-
ted. But they choose to run separate can
didates, and so were both defeated. The
State of New York, which has but five mem
beYs in the present Congress, including
Clark, but not including Haskin and Rcy-
nolds, may easily gain half dozen conser-
vative members, if only the conservative
men will unite on Congressman, as they
have on the Electoral ticket, This they
must not fail to do. We are glad to see that
