New JERSEY IN THE FUTURE. - The
population of the State of New Jersey
by the United States census of 1860 was
672,000. By the State enumeration OF
1866, IT'S, 700, Increase in five years
101, 700. What will be the population
in 1870? The United States census
shows a constant increase every ten
years of one-third of the whole at the
beginning of ten years. Add one-third
of that of 1850 in New Jersey and we
have in 1870 population of $4,000
souls. By the Constitution of New
Jersey the House of Assembly is to
number about sixty members. Every
ten years the number of members are
to be divided among the counties ac-
cording to the population therein. In
1870, $1,000 persons will represent a
member Hudson County, in 1870,
will have 10000 inhabitants, and ten
members instead of six. Essex County
Will nave ZUO,UuU luHlblthltS' anu
twelve or thirteen members instead OF
nine. Here we have a change in two
counties of at least seven members
which are to be deducted from Other
counties, and as there is large increase
of the inhabitants in Union, Bergen
and Pnssaic this deduction will be made
on the representation Of West Jersey
mostly. These two counties alone
gaining at least seven members, change
thesspower from West to East Jersey Of
fourteen votes, and as they will repre-
sent more than third of the whole
representation in the House, We shall
find a reverse Of the axiom, and that ii
New Jersey eastward the course of gov
ernment takes it's way.-Excbange.

The large quantity of lager beer
seized July 6, in the saloon of the Bro
theirs Pfatf, was returned to them to-
day. The reason given for the restora-
ton was, that the property would spoil
before a decision could be reached in
the Courts. A different result was ex-
perienced by Matthias Nicola, in Cam
bridge. whose stock, consisting of one
key of lager, was seized, and the SEN
fenced to three months at the House of
Correction, and fine of $50. Judge
Pullman, late President of the Senate
and recently appointed to a Judgeship,
passed the sentence.

BOYNTONS ELEVATED OVEN RANGE

This new and beautiful Range, which has inst
been completed, is offered to the public as the
most complete, convenient and desirable Elevated
Oven Range in the market and is the result of long
experience in the manufacture and setting of Cook
ing Ranges and VIC do not hesitate in recommend
ing it as the nearest to perfection of any Elevated
oven Range in the country.
We will enumerate some of the peculiar adyan-
tages this Range possesses
First-lt is more beautiful in form and design
than any other pattern.
Second-It has much larger hot place Surface
for Boilers and Stew Pans, affording larger accom-
modations for Cooking purposes.
Ihlrd-lt has a smaller Fire Chamber, and burns
less coal than any other pattern of Elevated Oven
Range, Tor the simple reason that the fire chamber
is entirely surrounded with fire brick instead of an
open CRATE in front and water back in the rear,
forming two sides of the fire las in all other pattern
ranges both of which chill and deaden the fire and
ueuact largely from the power, and make it abso-
Iutely necessary to burn larger amount of fuel
tourth-The body of this Range is higher than
other patterns, and is like the French Kitch-
ehers, making it much more convenient and easy
for the cook
Fifth-1he hot closets are more accessible
placed in natural position being in the body of
the Range) instead of above the ovens as in other
patterns
Sixth-The ovens do not project over the boiling
surface so as to make it inconvenient in removing
the boilers, as in other patterns
ScVenth-ihere are better arrangements for con-
Yeying the steam to chimneys and controlling the
draft than most ranges.
Elghth-The ovens bake more evenly, as we have
afeturn nue. over the top of the oven (which is the
point that most often faiIs thus securing perfect
paAiie oven on the top as well as on the bottom.
Nlnth-The fues in this range are all complete in
themselves, so that il is unnecessary TO form them
OF brick, (which absorbs the heat) and makes the
settlng Of them much more simple and sure
Tenth-The water back can be removed and the
plumbing work can be repaired, ii necessary with
out disturbing the brick work,

At about s A. NJ. on Saturday, the
body of William Lawrence, night
Waterman at the Hoboken Ferry, was
found standing erect in the shallow wa
ter between the scow aud the piles sup
porting the dock, on the passage from
Newark street, to the ferry, the feet
and legs being far imbedded in mud.
The body was drawn ont and laid in
the scow, where, covered with white
sheet, it awaited the arrival OF Coroner
White. A more CHASTITY sight than it
presented cannot be imagined. The
face was horribly cut and bruised.
while the other parts of his person
showed beyond doubt that his death
had resulted from violence. 1t is
thought that the assailants, having
beaten Lawrence until he was insensi
bic, threw the body into the river to
remove all traces Of the crime. From
all that can be learned, it would appear
that the murder must have been com
mitted between the hours of IL on
Thursday night and 3 on Friday morn
ing Up to- about the first mentioned
| hour his whereabouts can be traced.
1t was, at the hour last mentioned, his
duty-in which he then failed-to
arouse the ferry hands from their
slumbers. At about 10 P. NJ, on
Thursday, a woman of bad character,
who, though she goes under the soub-
riquct of "Vic Morgan" gave her
name rs Victorine Hugg, met Law
renee at his place of duty. He walked
away with her over the bridge from the
ferry wharf to Newark street, and up
through Newark street. as far as Kunc
ken's lager beer saloon.
Going into this place, they met two
friends OF Lawrence, engaged on board
of the steamer Galatea, of the Boston
and Providence line-AndrewM NJ. Doug
lass, the vessels chief engineer, and
Martin S. Persons, mate. Drinks were
called for and supplied at a table around
which the party of four had seated
themselves. While they drinking Will
liam Mccullough and Charles Mattress,
alias Buggy" entered, drank, and
went out again. Lawrence's party soon
followed, and as far rs can ascertained,
repaired to the vessel on which Doug
lass and Persons were employed. In
about hal an hour, Lawrence, bethink-
ing himself of his duties at the ferry,
arose to leave, and babe his friends good
night. Persons observed that his gait
was rather unsteady, escorted him to
the shipss side, and saw him safely
land from the rope-ladder on which he
descended to the wharf The theories
relative to the crime are as numerous
as were as those in the Rogers murder.
A all of them are as yet purely conjec-
tural, there is no need of reproducing
them here. The inquest is adjourned,
and Persons, Mattress. Mccullough,
Oyega, and Miss Hugg are held to
await the action of the Coroners jury.
Douglass was bailed in $1,000 for his
appearance tomorrow.
