The Richmond Wing of to-day says: Some
odd persons, originally from Holland, but more
recently from Michigan, where there is large
Dutch settlement, arrived in this city yester-
day. on their way to Amelia County, where
they will purchase lands already set apart for
them, and settle. This is the fruit of negotia-
tons that we have heretofore spoken of be-
tween the Rev. Mr.. Van Roal and Gen. limbo
den, and is but the beginning OF what we may
expect in the same way.

OUR LIVERPOOL STEAM LINE
The Golden Horn, the first ship of the
regal line of steamers for Liverpool,
has cleared at this port with cargo of
1858 bales of Upland and 1873 bales of
Sea Island cotton. Messrs. R. Mure Il
Co., her agents, having, with excellent
success, placed full freight on her in
good time. Her carrying capacity,
which has exceeded anticipations, it
will be seen above, amounts to near g.
900 bales, and is taken on moderate
draft and fine trim Of ship. The cot
ton on this vessel has been received, not
only from Carolina aud Georgia, but
Alabama is we'll represented, and our
new connection. Selma, in the latter
State, has fine shipment on board
The agents of the line here, notwith-
standing the somewhat untried charac-
ter of the enterprise, have secured a
most gratifying basis for future sue
cess, and as soon as the superior ca
nacities of the line are known, pat.
roneee will be obtained from all the
interior points of the South and West.

GRADUAL DEpoPULATIoN OF NEW
ENGLAND.-It has been observed as q
singular circumstance, that for two
years past there has been great fall
ing off in attendance at the common
schools in New England. This, for
New England, where education is a
question of the first Importance, is an
extraordinary fact, and has led to much
speculation az to the cause. 1t has
been satisfactorily ascertained that the
falling off is not attributable to a d.
miuished interest of the people in edu-
cation, or to an indisposition of the
children to go to school, but to de-
crease in the number of children.
The diminution in the number of
children may we'll give rise to grave
discussion. AS there has not been a
prevalence of serious epidemics in New
Euglandvery recently, certainly not with
in the two last years, and no greater NOR
tality in proportion to population than in
other parts Of the Union, and probably
not so great among children as in large
cities or States south of New England,
we may we'll wonder at the decrease in
the number of children. Forty years
ago, it was not uncommon in that dis
trict of the United States-so it is as
sertcd-to find ten children in fami-
ly; and that the average offspring of
males aged forty-fve was seven. At
this time, however, it is stated that the
agcragate does not exceed four. The
deaths are said, in many towns, to ex-
ceed the births, and, that but for the
emigration of foreigners, the would
gradually become depopulated.
Here we have problem worthy the
attention of the Social Science Conven-
ton. In New York, and in several
other large cities, marriages are not as
frequent as formerly; but the popula-
tion still keeps up to the general stand
ard without the aid of foreign emigra.
ton. In New England, where we have
never heard of any decrease in marri-
ages, there seems to be very marked
decrease id births. Are we to regard
this as one of the accomplishments of
an advanced civilization or does it arise
from physical deterioration or may we
attribute it to an acquisition of the
peculiar physiological knowledge which
has been widely disseminated through
out certain portions of the country?
Or would VIC be correct as well as CON-
plimentary in concluding that it result
ed from the concentration in tho brain
of all that the vital activities of the
body, and that the New England people
in consequence Of long-continued cult
vation of the mind, are capable only of
mental conceptions? Whatever the
cause is, the fact itself is strange and
startling one, and may result eventually
in the depopulation of the New England
States.-Nev York Neps.
