Census, makes the following preliminary
report Of the growth OF the United States,
based upon The census returns Of 1860:
COMPARISONS.
thus far ia cur history no state has
declined in population. Vermont has re-
mained nearly stationary, aud Is saved
from positive loss Of inhabitants By only
ono-third Of one per cent New Hamp-
shire, likewise, has gained but slowly, her
Increment bqing only 8,097, or two and
oue-hnlf per cent. On that OF 1850. Maine
has made the satisfactory increase 0f
1910, or TIA per cent. The old agricul-
tural states may be said to be filed up, 80
far es regards the resources adapted to a
rural population in the present condition
Of agricultural seienca. The conditions of
their increase undergo change upon the
general occupation and allotment of their
areas. Manufactures and commerce then
come in to supply the means Of subsiss1
tence to an excess Of inhabitants beyOnd
what the ordinary cultivation Of the soil
can sustain. This point in the progress
Of population has been reached and per-
haps passed, In most If not all Of the New
England States-But while statistical sci
ence may denohstrate within narrow lin
its the number Of persons who may extract
a subsistence from eheh square mile of
arabic land, it cannot compute, with any
approach to certainty, the adj
ditional population resident on the same
soil, which may obtain its living by the |
thousand branches Of artificial industry
which the demands Of society and civilisa-
don have created, This is forcibly illus
-rated By the returns relative to the three
other New England States-Massachu- /
setts, Rhode Island and Connectieut- (
which contain 1s, $50 square miles. The
