DECREASE OF CHILDREN.-Not
long ago DR.. Stover and others, in
Massachusetts,, in some comments
upon the singular fact that the
increase of children in that State
is limited almost wholly to the
foreign population, assigned the
cause of it to the commonness Of
crime of feticide. 1t now appears
that Maine is following Massachu-
seets in the decrease of the rising
generation. Mr.. Warren Johnson,
the State Superintendent of Com
mon Schools, in Maine, reports to
the Legislature that there is de.
crease of 1858 scholars, between
the ages of four and twenty-one
yeass, from.he census of 1868. The
decrease in the past year has been
1882; the decrease in 1864 was
4, l41, and the total decrease from
the maximum of 1860 is nearly
10000. Mr.. Johnson very natu-
rally considers this decrease alarm
ing, but, as he cannot satisfactorily
account for it, he proposes a series
of inquiries, such as: "Have we
ceased to be producing people ?"
aAre the vital forces expended
in brain labor and lost to physical
reproduction ?" and, care the mod
ern fashionable criminalities of
infanticide and teticide creeping
into our State community" Com
ing from such a source, these are
questions offearful import, relating
as they do to the populations of
rural districts, where, there being
greater abundance of the means of
subsistence and:less temptation to
crime than ia large cities, there is
generally supposed to be more
morality. ~ ~'
