var, each Of the States engaged in the
rebellion shows an actual increase in popu-
Jation since 1860, though IN most cases it
is small. The zarages Of war during the
first ava years Of the decade, have been
overcome by the increase during the Inst
I've yearz. The negro population has not
left these States in any considerable num-
ber. Since the war, Arkansas and Ten
nessee have received large additions by iu-
migration, principally, however, from the
Northern and Middle States. The effect
of the five years war upon the seeding
states in the matter Of population, has
been to leave them at the end of the
decade about where they we're in 1860, and
to prevent that growth and increase which
have been experienced in all other parts Of
the country. Tho South now begins anew
life, and, dirested Of the OLD p7ejudices md
hatreds, and made aware Of the absurditiea
Of the patriarchal style of planting and
farming, will, during the coming len
years, grow rapidly. As the growth

TIE PRECIOUS METALS.

probably be much discussion, both in Con-
gress and by tho press, in regard to specie
payments, and, as one OF the most Import
ant factors in the problem will be our spe-
Gle resources, II would be wenfor both Con-
sress snd the public to have some general
idea, app.osin,ating the truth, regarding |
tho aetunl production of the precious |
metals IN this country. The recently pub
lished' report OF the Commissioner OF |
Mining Statistics places the whole produc-'
ton of gold and silver in tho United States |
at SEA 0oo, 600 per annum:' In recent
article on the production Of The precious
metals We took this estinats as correct, but
further investigation convinces us that it
is not only much shove the estimates made
by those who are in position to know,
but is probably much in excess
Of the actunl product. Tho mot surpris-
ing part of the report is, that it makes the
total product Of precious metals in Califor-
mia only SEQ, ,ooo, 600, or less than oue-third
Of the whole. In a pamphlet Published
year ago, by Mr.. Louis A. Garnett, form
erly an officer Of the Mint, and now man.
see1 of the San Francisco Assaying and
refining WORKS, we find the following conf
pilation from the Commerce and Naviga-
tion Reports and from the Reports OF the
Director OF ths Mint for the five years
ending June 80, 1863

air. Garnett's pamphlet .wss written OF
the suggestion Of the memhe.n NJ the Ways
and Means Committee on account Of his
long acquaintance with the product of the
precious metals in the unitod States. In
it be sets down the silver product for 1869
at $40, Don, 600, and that OF gold Mt s35,-
OK, 600, making total Of 81, 200, 900. Il
, is conceded hy everyone converaant With
mining statistics, that the product Of both
gold and silver in the United States has
diminished since 1865, and the general be.
lief has been that the aggregate product oi
precious metals for 1870 would be less
than for 1869. The Commerce and Nnvi
getion Reports for 1869 show that the sota
MT export Of precious metals. after deduct

Why tits that such a howl is 60
ing up from every Radical paper
in the South, all at once, is easily
discovered. Several weeks ago,
the President contemplated issuing
a proclamation of Universal AM
nesty, and it is feared in Radical
circles that such a proclamation
would be the death knell to their
party. They feel in>ecure, and
their perturbed and overstrained
imaginations cojure up all sorts of
outrages which have only a paper
existence. 1t is not unusual to
chronicle an instance of broken
plighted faith on the part Of this
party. Every one will remember
how loud.mouthed this party were
in the promise, before the election
in this State, Of using their utmost
endeavors, to remove all disabili-
ties, and obtain a general amnesty.
The party made the same promise
in other Southern States. Have
they kept their promises Have
they, in good faith, made the first
step in this direction? No, but on
the contrary they are publishing
these ISLANDERS to the world to pre-
vent a general amnesty, and are
sending emisaries to Washington
for the same purpose,
