The next osl-l- waz taken IN 40, after .
lap-e Of fourteen .eas-, from which We a~-oel'ain
that the whole population Wa e3.ID5 q which
s2,3D5 were strictly Hawaiian tie ba.anoe,
1862, being foreign and nizod giving over y
PER cent. ~ the rate d decrease u thc whole
population IN fourteen yeaT-.
The fourth census wac taken IN 1853. three
year, later, when TIE total population wac found
o. be 1918 or Which 2.Il3 wee foreign Oh
mizri. Showing a decrca-s of over - Iar cent.
IN three ye,E= Of tie whole population while the
foreign population Lad r.-cn from 1902 % 2.llJ,
am increa-s Of over = per cent.
~ I-JG. tie fifth Official census wa- taken,
from which we are enabled Z, obtain additional
facts regarding the Change IL population. The
whole population wac 90. 800 of which the foreign
wa ~ least 3.2lG. We cannot give tie exact
figure. ~ the Chinese in the di-tric; Of Hpn.luiu
were c,gntel IN with tie Ilawaiian-. The de-
crease q the whole population during the seven
years wa a little over . Icr cent. The foreigner
meanwhile had incroa-ed over u PER cent. This
census shows that there were 2O,s29 llawaii.u=
under twenty years o. age, and Gi7 foreigners.
Thus We fuI that or Hlwaii.ns under twenty
years % age we have but 20 per cent, and Oc the
foreigners ~ Ter cent
The census Of IsJj waz the next and last.
From this we GuI ,iot the total population wa-
G2.yjJ of which 4,lJi were foreigners, giving q
decrease 10 total population ia -Ix years Of nearly
10 Ter cent. while the foreign population Lad
increased over 90 Icr cent. The number 81
natives and foreigners under fifteen ycar- of age
wa MT ~-eTautel, unfortunately, for We believe
that tLe Percentage Of increase n foreign children
over native would a-t1ni-h our readers. Tie total
number under fifteen years 81 asc wa- i1,G5-, or
but - Ter cent. Dr Gee whole population.
The census II 1850, shows that there were %
4.D married ~o5uTIes, while that Of I-GJ, shows
