PROGRESS OF Liberal. IDEAS ABgoAD-Pgos-
rEcTIvE ABOLITION OF THE PASSPORT SYSTEM
The suspension of the passport system by Louis
Napoleon in favor of the English, although
protesting to be merely measure of recipro
city, may be regarded as preliminary expert
mcnt to its total abolition. The Emperor, in
granting freedom Of discussion to Ne press,
has wisely decided not to maintain resiction
which is incompatible with the theories Of ma
fional liberty put forth in Count Persigny's
recent circular His course in regard to Italy
has rendered him SO strong that he can afford
10 dispense with the safeguards by which dcs-
pOtism is compelled to surround itself. The ef-
forts that he has made in favor of constitutional
government in other countries have 30 disarmed
republican hostility that he has no longer any
thing to fear from it. The contrast between
bis present security and the hourly dangers to
which he was exposed in the earlier years Of
his reign, when the passport system was at the
height Of its stringcncy, has naturally produced
on his mind conviction Of it's uselessness.
What he now grants by way of favor to the
English be will soon extend to other countries
and to his own subjects. The continental
governments will, SO far as the passport system
Is concerned, be ultimately forced to follow his
example. France and Italy relieved from its
vexatious interference with individual liberty,
there will be no possibility Of maintaining it
elsewhere. The frontiers Of these States will
offer 80 ready and secure shelter to refugees
shat the system will be practically nullity
wherever 1t is attempted to be enforced Ira
vellers will owe deep debt Of gratitude to
Che Emperor for the abolition Of this nuisance.
To no people will 1t prove more grateful than to
ours, owing to the risks to which it exposes our
adopted citizens when they have occasion to
revisit the fatherland.

GOVERNOR HICKS, or MARYhAND.-Tbis gentle
man is an old line wing American Union man
A tremendous pressure has been made upon
him for some weeks past to call the State Lee
gislature together, that it may call a State Con-
vention on the secession question. But the
Governor has his misgivings of the disunion
excitement in Maryland. He fears that this
pressure upon him covers scheme for carry
ing Maryland out of the Union before the 4th
March, and for Selling, under the authority of
Mary land as an Independent State, the city of
Washington and the public buildings and
archives thereof Governor Hicks, not appre-
ciating the grandeur of this scheme, refuses to
give ii lift; and, all things considered, he is
acting in this like wise man and patriot.

THE NATIONAL CENsUs.-The eighth national
census is now completed, but as yet the details
of the work have not been furnished to the
public. According to the statement of Gov.
Morgan in his message based upon official in
formation from Washington, the total popula-
ton of the United States is 3l.S74 $50, and the
population Of our own State 1927 900. which
show an increase since 1850 of S,lS5,7S2 in the
population of the whole country, and an in
crease in the State of New York of 730,394
We have collected the official returns of the fol-
lowing fourteen States, and they show the sub
joined amounts and the increase within ten

doubtedly greater since the years in which the
above return was made-so that 1t Is fair to
conclude that the aggregate number OF the
whole militia of the United States, at the
present time, is nearer TO three millions and a
half than to the total given in this table
AS the greatest number Of enrolled militia is
to be found in the Northern States and in the
Western States, where, for few years past,
military organizations have been progressing
with great activity, we may safely put down
two millions and half of the entire force as in
favor of maintaining the government in the
enforcement of the laws, although many if not
oil the individuals composing it may be willing
to guarantee the South all the rights and privi'
leges she is entitled to under the constitution.
Nevertheless, there is an element in the Ameri-
can soldier which inelines him always to the
side Of constituted authority, discipline and
law.

Governor stewart's message read to the Legisla
ture to-day

publican parties and stating the result of their success
the Governor says that Missouri occupies position
gard 10 those troubles that should make her voice potent

mand and maintain her rights at every hazard.
Missouri loves the Union, and viii never submit 10

neral contracts enacted by Congress to-day and
repealed to morrow, but compromise assuring al the

Missouri has right speak this subject, because
che has suffered deeply having probably lost maeh in
the past few years by abduetons OF slaves all the rest

fered severe losses and constant annoyances

Missouri will hold to the Onion 50 loug as it is
worth the effort to preserve is. She cannot be

North, or dragooned into secession by the restric
tive legislation Of the extreme South. The Gov

Numerous appeals have been made to me BY pious and
patriotic associations and citizens in view OF the present
distracted and dangerous condition Of cosry, to
commend that day be set apart for humiliation fasting
and prayer throughout the Union. In compliance with
their request, and my sense of duty, designate
Friday the dth day Of January 1851 for this purpose
aud recommend that the people assemble on that day
according to their several forms of worship to keep
a solemn fast.
The Union OF these States is at the present moment
threatened with alarming and immediate danger--panic
and distress of fearful character prevail throughout the
land-our aborng population without employ meut,

acknowledging the justice of our punishment let US

vailed in former days among the people OF the severa

II must be taken into consideration that these
figures may not be strictly correct; for, as
general rule, census returns are rather below
the mark than otherwise. Many houses are not
visited at all by the Marshals, and we know
from the mode in which the census was taken
in our own city and State that full return of
the population was not obtained here. The
Marshals called at the houses OF our citizens in
the heat of summer, for instance, when thou
sands Of people were in the country, stopping
at hotels in watering places and elsewhere; and
we are inclined to think that some of the rough
districts-such as the Five Points and other To-
calities--were not very closely canvassed, al
though they are the most populous parts OF the
metropolis. We should not be at all surprised,
therefore, IL the total population of the coun-
try was thirty-four millions instead of frac-
over thirty one millions.
