THE GROWTH OF ST. LOUIS.

ONE of the founders and Mayors of ST. Louis
died recently at the age of ~. 1t would
have been scarcely possible in any other country
for the founder of a town to live long
enough to see its population expand to quarter
of a million of souls. The growth of st. Louis,
however, affords a more remarkable illustration
of the progress of the commercial centres
of the Great West than any other city except
Chicago. 1t was originally selected as the
site of an Indian trading post more than a hun
dred years ago, but for long period population
increased so slowly that in 1904 it contained less
than 1000 souls, and in 1890 the number of in
habitants was only 1893. In 1922 it was first
chartered as a city. and for Il time it still con-
tinued to progress slowly, the population rising
to only 6694 in $780, and to 16, 46b in 1S40. The
first great stride was .ss ,ae decade between 1910
and 1850, therG population In the latter
year reaching 77,S50 of whom nearly one
blrrrSdcWere born in Germany. The increase
from 1850 to 1860 was less rapid, but it never
theless reached the aggregate OF 15l, 7SO in the
latter year, and although progress was arrested
in the early portion of the present decade by
the fearful civil war then raging in Missouri, the
growth of that State and its metropolis since the
suppression of the Rebellion has been so rapid
that st. Louis must now contain more than
80, 900 inhabitants, or as many as Philadelphia
pos, essed in lS40.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1869-04-28

calling in the long credit heretofore given for
assessed taxes; about "a, 900 by hastening
the collection Of the land and inhabited house
tax, so as to receive within the financial year
full half of the amount which falls
beyond 1T; and about 90, 0e0 by fastening in
the same manner the collection of the income
tax. In this way SIG, 600 moro than
usual is to be received from the people during
the first year; but while this serves TO swell the
resources Of the treasury, and to i've a larg /,
margin for the remission Of taxation, IL affords
no permanent relief TO the people, since the 7
will merely be compelled hereafter t. pay this
516, 10000 into the treasury six months before
the usual time.
Mr. Lowe proposes to make the best possible
use of his margin in the way Of remitting un-
popular and oppressive taxes, as compensation
for compelling the people to hasten by half a
year the payment of such good round sum.
There is still left a shilling duty upon grain
yielding about "a, 500 000 which the Chancellor
of the EXchequer has repeatedly attacked be-
cause of Its injustice to the poor, and the oh
structione which 1t imposes upon commerce.
Mr.. Lowe proposes to abolish this, and hopes, as
the result, to constitute the ports of Great
Britain the great grain centres Of the west of
Europe.
The fire insurance duty, yielding about
$4,0OO,000, it is also proposed to remit, as well
as about 50, 100000 of assessed taxes and one
penny on the rate of the income tax, thus re-
ducing the latter to Cd. But it is expected that
there will be considerable decrease in the ex-
pense of collecting the revenue, and with this
fact in view it is estimated that
the total sacrifice of annual revenue by the
above remissions will not exceed S15 0O0, ,O0O
not quite all of which will affect the revenue of
the current year, the remainder going to swell
the small estimated balance.

attempts to force it. The night dark and stormy,

the faithful safe bears evidence of the labor and skill
devoted to the work All useless and it is with
great satisfaction report that upon opening it
