New States.

Washington correspondents say the Com
mlttee on Territories are ready to report bills
admitting Colorado and New Mexico into the
Union as States, This, if those territories
had the requisite amount Of population, and
that population desired to assume the bur.
dens and responsibilities of States, would be
all right But, unfortunately, one or both Of
those conditions are wanting. BY the census
just completed, it appears that Colorado, with
an area Of 100000 square miles enough to
make fifteen States Of the size Of Massachu.
sets, has population Of 30,6Sl souls-that
is about one soul to each 1900 acres Of land
Or surprising the population grouped in lami.
lies OF five persons, there then would be one
family to each 5000 acres Of land.
ln the Older States, under the new appor.
tionment, it will require not less than about
100000 people to be entitled to send on,
representative to Congress Aud yet III,
proposition to make Colorado State at thi,
time is proposition to give to about one
fourth of the requisite population, authority
to be represented in Congress not only by 0
Representative, but by two Senators. TIL,
scheme, if seriously attempted, ought to fail
and will be a scandal, if it succeeds.
The New Mexico scheme looks better Oh
paper. That territory contains a large mum,
Der Of Indians, and Spaniards, and the censui
returns place the whole population at Ill.,
600. But we suppose there are no more
bona .fde American citizens there than il
Colorado, while they are scattered over I
still larger area. 1t is evident that they ar,
not in condition to maintain a stable State
government, aud ought not to be allowed t
add any new reinforcement to the democrat

" One of the most important questions
to come before the newly Neglected French As.
sembly will be the proposition to remove the
seat of government from Paris. Had some
other city than Paris been the capital of
France, in August last that country would
not now be suppliaut to Germany. The
proposed defence of the capital caused a
division of the forces left after the surrender
at Sedan, which was fatal to the hopes of
success. The scat of government ought to be
in place where there is no danger Of dcta.
tons from mobs like those which have so
frequently disturbed the peace of Paris. And
there is another reason why many Frenchmen
may wish to have new capital Their proud
spirits revolt at the idea that the capital of
their country should have been trod by the
hostile foot of hated Germans, aud much as
they have admired Paris, they are willing to
sacrifice her, now she is in disgrace
