came into the Union, there were not 10000 peO-

at LILIES. We may appreciate this fact more
when We remember that IN l5ic our " State
of Pennsylvania contained l,54S,45s. and in
1860, it was reported as numbering $500, so.
In twenty years Chicago rises nom a eOwn con

developed, even to the point attained in the east.
The wealth of Illinois, which was Sl36,260,-
OOG. in 1850, is estimated at SSH ,56O,2S2 in
1860; and some curious statistelan, whose Hg-
ures R.r arnold prints win Pnd5, tells as that If

a soldier and a patriot-at least he is introduced
as such 10 Hon. B. +. Wade and John Covode,
by w A. Burleigh. The letters Of Introduction
are dated in February last. The pocket book
also contains receipts from the captains Of the
c]olonel's regiment for the arms, etc, turned over
to them Oh the Ilth and 18th Of March. from
which it may have been previously cut up at
Fort DJnelson, as there is great disparity IN the
number Of arms Teceipted for by the different
captains, ranging from 81 to -. The other
papers are all of a private character, and some
two years old, being chiefly railroad passes and
the like.
The book and its contents are at the service of
