Tie most remarkable development Of the ceu-

ai election of 1860 tho ciy cast 95.5s3 votes. At

will be developed In the suburbs and In al TIE re-
gion within radius Of twenty miles from tic City
Hall. But The arbitrary fact is shown that the pop
ulaion Of Manhattan Island has increased loss than
0OO0 during the last ten years And set In the
face of this sho~ wing Of tho census, we have most
remarkable increase OF voters. Where with 600
population in 1850 we cast % 5s9 votes or one for
every eight and one-nalf OF population, now, with a
populGtionof only 900 CO., va cast at the Presiden-
