We're = stranger to judge OF the city Of
New York by the self-oomplsoent lauds-
tons Of the press of that city, he would be
induced 10 believe that London, the largest
and richest, the greatest city in the world,
has been completely Outstripped by the
metropolis Of the New World" The fol-
lowing statement derived from official
sources, namely, the census Of the United
ststes for 1860, and that of London for
1861, the full reports OF neither Of which
have yet been published, leave the reader
to draw his own conclusions;
In March. 1851, London contained q
nopulatiou Of 2,S62, ,236 inhabitants, and
3O5 996 houses. In 1861, the populotion
had increased to 2 803 $50 inhabitants end
869, ,42I houses, showing an increase in 10
Years Of f431, 1853 inhabitants, and Of 6S, Az
houses. The number Of houses erected in
.he city Of London in 10 years was, there
fore, only 500 less than the total number
Of houses in New York in 1860
In 1850 New York contained populs-
ton of 5l5,517 Inhabitants and 37,29l
houses. In 1860 the number Of inhsbi-
tspts is set down at 805, ISL, and the num-
ber of houses at So 97l, showing an increase
of 2eO IO4 inhabitants and 1850 houses.
Philadelphis contained In 1850 q popu-
Istion Of $40 045 inhabitants and 54,974
houses. In 1860 the number Of inhabi-
tants wss 562, $40, and the number Of 81, ,326
houses showing an increase in 10 years OF
% 854 houses, and 222, ,483 inhabitants.
Thus we 6nd that London, in 10 years,
had increased in population 46li 1885, New
York, 290, 104 souls, or 67.78 per cent. and
PhilsdelphIs 222 4S4 inhabitants, or 90. As
per cent. The average number Of houses
during 10 years in London was ,S49 in
New York, 1868; and in Philadelphia, 2
s62. London has been settled 2, 600 yearsi
New York 24s yesrs, and Philadelphis l7S.

empnnIpn1Ion md determination.


Uner this caption the New York World
weeps in a truly heroic manner over the
prospects of the black race in America.
It virtually says, as it cOntemplates the
long line Of ages to come I" if you have
tears to shed, prepare to shed them nOw."
The negro, by some inscrutable dispense
ton Of Providence, assisted by the fsnsd-
cal zeal Of The Abolitionists, is to be ex-
Terminated. His essential inferiority Is
drawing him toward that fatality.
Tbs World thinks if the negro race
could have been kept within the restraints
of slavery, there would be some hope fOl
them as a race. But Abolition philsnthrO'
p7 is working their ruin as speedily as
possible.
We have no doubt that much hardship
snd decentralization attend the transition
Of the negro race from bondage to free
dom. The impossibility Of Immediately
converting hundred thousand igno-an
men, women and children Of serVile pop
ulation into state of civilization is so ap
parent thst no one but bitter partisan
and an unsound logicisn would condemn
their emancipation. The evil consequences
referred to by the World, are incident t,
the inevitable changes war is producing
in their condition. II necessary, let tn
negro have century or TWO centuries t
be civilized. 1t is new our duty to prOvid
means to avoid all the bad results essen
TALLY necessary il so sudden and 80 over
whelmiDg a transition from state Of sh
jsot vsssalsge to a condition Of chsoti
freedom. Out Of ehsos will come Ordel
progress, and civilization.

TIE REBEL PRIVATE QUESTION IN LONDON.
A good deal is talked here, privately,
about the responsibility incurred By him,
by those who are behind the scenes, who
know Englsnd-sni the United States. l
have before me pamphlet on "The De
struetion Of the American Carrying Trade"
in the form of q letter to Esrl Russell, By
Mr.. Frederick Mines Edge, which puts
tho matter in striking light, and presents
an array Of facts absolutely starring.
Not Briton or Amesioan with whom
have conversed on the subject but is sur
prised at the extent Of the mischief, which
the suthor-himself an Englishmsn-can
scarcely be accused Of any desire Of over
Stating. The wisest and shrewdest public
men here are fully aware Of the Importance
Of the question, and look to see it thorough
| ly ventilated in due time. believe Earl
Russell didn't recognise the claim in his
correspondence with Mr.. Adams but he
knew it will be made, and the procable al
terHstive Of q war or compensation" be
submitted to Mr.. Bull, who knows his OWE
interests very well, and when to "bael
down" as well as TO go l" on the rampage.
Observe that already, under the apprshen
sions Of continental troubles, our mercan

Once upon g time-sone two or q

The UnkIeesst Cut Of All.

A special to the New York Herald says;
uIn democratic Congressional caucus
recently held q resolution was adopted TO
ignore the whole question Of slavery II
the address to be Issued, and also 10 tender
to General Grant the Presidential nomlns-
ton. The only opposition offered was by
few OF tho peace Democrats"
It is certainly amusing to watch the
vrieglings Of the Democratic leaders IN
their efforts to get upon ground which VIII
make their prospects for the Presidency a
little more hopofol. After all their Prs-
,jpes about Peace, and their pharisaical
sbborrence of blood, they would not soruPle
to nominate, II they could get anybody to
accept, bloody son of Mars. Only the
other day, the rebel organ in New York,
which is always prsting about Pesce, in
spasmodic editorisl called COpperheads to
arms.
But this new democratic dodge is very
unkind toward General Grant. After the
old satsnic has done its best to murder
him, the democracy propose to confer upon
him the leadership of the Fernando Wood
Peace party. Otemporal 0moFssi

Coal in Rhode Island,

There Is considerable excitement in
Rhode Island over the anthracite coal be is
known to exist near Portsmouth. The
Providence Journal says:
It is well settled that this coal can be
profitably mined fer furnaces where i'm
mense quantities Of similar article are
consumed. The coal now bears the high
price Of 81 per ter, which must yield q
large profit to the miners. 1t is stated
that lot far from Is tons per day are re-
moved by rail to Taunton, and that there
is a market for much more. There will
probably be an enlargement Of the works
before many months are passed. Rumor
SAYS also that extensive arrangements are
to be made for smelling copper and zinc
under the auspices of the Mount Hope
Mining Company, who are disposed to
push forward operations with zeal that
can scarcely fail to ensure success,

Miss Anna DickInsOn's Address ia tho Coop
er Institute.

On Tuesdsy evening last this immense
hall was crowded to hear this lady. AS
Miss Dickinson did not want her speech
reported We present summary from the
Tribune:
After q very short introduction, she gave
a stirring outline Of the possible recolleot-
ions ofthe hero Of the war-the private
soldier. She then traced in vigorous
picturing the slow and painful process
through which the nation rose up to the
true conception Of the war, and learned
and resolved that it was to be q war for
Liberty. She then defined the issues Of
the contest; showed how false we're the
pretenses Of he self-styled Constitution
alists" Of the Democratic stripe; summsr-
lied the services Of the colored people, and
asserted their just claims, arguing thatthe
terms of the Presidents Amnesty Prools-
nation prove that he does not believe his
Emancipation Proclamation reslly freed
any slaves; and enumsrsting the consid
erstions Of right and expedieney which de-
msnd Emancipation as indemnity fo7 the
past and Abolition as security for tke
future.

ReheI Areurs ChIcnso.


4 contract surgeon, named " D. Lee,
in attendance upon the rebel prisoners at
Camp Douglas, Chicago, has been arrested
on suspicion Of eOnspiring to release those
prisoners. One Messick, rebel lieuLen-
ant, who has brother in confinement,
has been arrested in the same city. The
Tribune says:
IThe brother, John Burton Messick,
now in close confinement, has confessed 70
the whole plan, and says that Dr.. Lee bad
fally arranged TO assist in his escape. The
project was 10 procure Burton a disguise
Of citizen's closing and pass him out Of the
gate as sn assistant, a plan eminently
practicable from his official relation to the
prisoners. DR.. Lee has been seen in the
company Of the rebel lieutenant on several
occasions, cnee at the Varieties and again
at the circus, where he introduced him
self rs an Acquaintance he had known
from boyhood. Some Of the prisoners say
he is rebel surgeon belonging to the Con-
federate army, and that he has obtained
this position in the federal army to assist
in the escape of prisoners, and to convey
| information to his masters. At all events
his own story confirms tn the fullest ex-
tent the suspicious entertsined concerning
