Census Of Ohio.

General Garfield has at the request of
the Secretary Of State of Ohio prepared
a paper upon the results of the census,
as far as they relate to the State.
Among other facts it is shown that the
emigration from and immigration to
Ohio have been very nearly equal-that
is, the number of persons who have
come to the State from other States and
from foreign countries, has been bal
anced by the number born there who
have gone to other States and found
homes.
In thirty-seven counties there has
been an increase of population in the
decade; thirty-t three have been station
airy, and in eighteen there has been a
decrease. The counteis that have gained
are of three classes: the seventeen agri-
cultural counties Of the Northwest,
which have been largely settled since
1850, have increased $4,000; in the nine
iron manufacturing and iron and coal
mining counties in the Mahoning Valley
and in the extreme southern part Of the
State, there has been an increase OF
$500. The remaining increase has
been in the eleven counties containing
cities, which have gained 17O,5OO. In
all the rest of the State the gain has been
but 1880.
It appears from these figures that il
the cities are excluded, and those coun-
ties which have been newly settled, and
others where the development of the
iron and coal Industries have caused q
rapid increase, the population of Ohio
has become almost stationary, the in
crease in ten years having been incon'
siderable.

From Washington.

WASHINGTON, Il. G., Jan. =, lSIZ.
EDITOR CHRONICLE Perhaps a word
from the capital would not come amiss
to most Of your readers; and if my letter
partakes at all OF the present condition
OF the city, it will be by no means "dry."
If Washington itself is not literally
turned upside down, the streets are, for
most of them have been ploughed up,
preparatory to better grading, and the
laying Of asphalt or Nicholson pave
ments. However much Citizens may
ridieule the action of the Territorial
Government, there can be no doubt but
that they are doing a much needed work;
and when finished, I venture TO say that
no city in the Union will be as well
supplied with fine, beautiful, durable
streets. In many places the mud is
almost knee deep, but one is consoled
by the many signs of real activity all
around, promising that the great work
will be finished with the utmost expedi-
ton. Nothing but the most earnest
efforts on the part of the Government
could suffice to bring order out of this
chaos.
The changes which have transpired
during an absence of a little more than
two years are truly wonderful. Here
you can see no signs of sympathy to
the "Capitel removement" movement.
Hundreds of handsome building are to-
day rising like mushrooms, and millions
of capital expended in their erection.
Washington bids fair to be in a few
years, exclusive of Government build
ings, as handsome a city as the country
can boast of. Where but a few months
since were vacant lots and stagnant mud
pools, are now stately residences. Long
rows of comfortable homes have replaced
tumble-down houses. The whole aspect
of the city is changed, and the most I'M
wonted activity prevails where it was
least expected. With railroads and new
manufactures we may look for some
thing better from Washington than a
hot-house Of Government employees.
The first and greatest day for Washing
tonians has passed and all Washington
is happy. New Years calling was in
every way a success, and all seemed to
participate. No one escaped the infec-
ton. The city was respondent in
swallowtails, spotless shirt bosoms, and
lavender kids. The Sunday papers de-
voted columns to the publication of the
names of those who would keep I" open
house." The Directory must have been
completely exhausted. OF course the
weather was disagreeable in the extreme.
It wouldn't have been a Washington
New Years otherwise.
Most of the members of the two houses
have taken advantage of the recess so
magnanimously imposed upon them
selves-increasing it, if ] am not mis-
taken, from two to three weeks.

commenced a suit for libel against VIM.

BRUNSWICK, Medina Co., o., /
nacpmbeT 20. 1871. I

EDITOR CHoNICLE spending a few
days in Medina Co., 1 saw the CHRoNI-
Gle at the house of a friend, and this
circumstance suggested the following
reflections, which may be of interest to
many of your readers. The paper with
its honest, sprightly face, seemed as
dear as an old and familiar friend. May
it long live and continue to grow till it
spreads over the whole State. Those
who see it from home think il the prince
amongst county papers. And my for
eign friends this is the position it has in
the hearts of its readers in its native
place. Its clean white paper, bold clear
type, extensive array of useful know
ledge, manly defence of liberty, and
sound morals should make every citizen
of the county proud Of the CHRONICLE.
Our county is not only famous for its
able paper, and its fine cattle, but also
for its lei 1t has contributed its full
share to the bright and honored names
Ohio has given to the world. On my
families through Medina, I have met
two of the sons of Old Trumbun, who
arc doing a good work in public life.
The first, Philander Kennedy, son Of
Thomas Kennedy, of Bazetta, is rapidly
taking a leading position among the
ablest Sabbath-school workers in this
part of the State. Mr.. X. is quite a
yonng man, and though he has been
here only two years, his popularity is
second to no man in Northern Medina.
The second is Rev. Silas Casterline,
whose family still resides in Bazetta.
He is here as a preacher, and is now in
the midst Of a successful %protracted
meeting in the town of Hinekley. When
he came here a few weeks since he found
a fine country, and plenty of wealth,
and a thick settlement of thrifty farmers
who have been content to worship in the
District school house for fifty years
With the characteristic energy of the
man, a lot has been secured within q few
days, and preparations are being made
to erect a handsome Gothic church by
next summer. Mr.. C. is a man whose
presence is felt wherever he goes, and
out here he commands universal respect.
So much for Trumbull. May it ever
send out such men. C. L.

Take IT to Your Home.

1t is so much the fashion nowadays to
convey information, and moral truths
and sentiments, in the form of stories
that even some popular lecturers have
adopted this style OF address. The mass
Of people, especially the young, demand
stories tosuch a degree that papers filled
with sensational novels and exciting,
trashy stuff, have a wide circulation.
To forestall this taste, and supply some
thing better to the masses, the publish
ers Of HEARTH AND HOME, in addition
to the usua variety of that paper, have
engaged a corps of frst-elass writers,

The revival meetings at the Disciple
Church under the preaching and direc-
ton of Elder X. Shaw, have been con
tinued through the past week. Both
the attendance aud interest manifested
have rather increased than diminished,
and the large number Of conversions
indicate that unusually strong religious
feelings have been awakened in the COM

others are still awaiting baptism. In all
sixty-one members have been added to
the church. The meetings VIII be con-

There is a Tumor at HAVANA that
the Spanish General Valmaseda has
ordered the practical enslavement of
the entire Chinese population of the
Island of Cuba, numbering, ii is said,
thirty-five thousand souls. The de-
cree compels all of the unindentured
Chinese to at once enroll themselves
in the list of government employees,
subject to the government tutor, and
under very low wages, stated to be
four dollars per month, while those
who have been indentured or bound
out" for a period Of years and whose
term of service is about to expire,
must at once be reindentured or go 10
prison. We give the rumor as we get
it, and do not attempt to vouch for it,
only remarking that it does not APP
pear at all improbable, when we con-
slider Spanish rule in Cuba, as exem-
plified by the light of recent events.
The recent outrages offered to our
commerce and our flag in the bay of
Havana, may at last induce Congress
to heed the oft repeated cries for pro-
lection from that quarter, by our own
citizens engaged in lawful pursuits,
but if it should be the case, it will
only be justice, long delayed.

Onr Gas.

The following from the Journal Of
applied Chemistry has general appica-
ton:
"The custom of paying for gas by the
cubic foot, without regard to its illumin-
ating power, is like buying all cloth at a
uniform price per ward, without any
onestion "a 10 the fitness of-tbe wool
No one would like to pay as much for
shoddy as for cashmere and yet shoddy
gas is the principal article now furnished
TO consumers, while the price paid calls
for the best gas that can be made. Some
Of the London companies pride them
selves on keeping up the illuminating
power of their gas 10 the maximum
standard of fifteen candles, and in TWEEN
tv-twO English works the gas from the
best Goals ranges from twelve to fourteen
candles, through burners consuming i've
cubic feet per hour. Besides the loss to
the consumer in the amount of light
afforded by a poor gas, there is another
difference which tells in favor of the
company. Assuming the specific graV-
ity Of the poor gas to be five, and that OF
rich gas seven and a half, the former Will
pass through the burner much faster
than the rich, and increase the bills Of
the consumer from thirty to fifty per
cent, without any corresponding IN
crease in the photOmetric power of he
gas. There ought to be a fixed standard
say sixteen candles, prescribed by law,
and an inspector appointed to see that
the companies comply with 1t; and IN
case of any breach of contract a heavy
penalty should be imposed"

The New York Herald says that if
we may judge from the tone of the
Spanish press, that nation is aching
for a fight with US. Not content with
the war in Cuba on her hands, she
wants to try conclusions with the I'm
ted States. With her navy she is 60
ing tosweep American commere from
the seas. She threatens terrible things
if we do not behave ourselves and per-
NIT her soldiers and volunteers in Gu
ba to go on ia their wholesale butch
cries in the Gem of the Antilles. In
fact. there are dreadful calamities in
store for us if we do not mend our
ways to suit her.

The Athens Waterman marches up
with a capital dog story, as follows :
THE house of Mr.. Jesse Gam, we
learn, was lately burnt, together with
all the furniture it contained. The
family made a narrow escape, and
would have persisted in the flames,
probably but for the remarkable
instinct of a dog. The faithful crea-
ture, seeing the danger, not only set
up a loud and ~ferocious barking, but
by jumping against the door finally
succeeded in awakening Mr.. Gam,
who had barely time to save the chill
dren from the flames"

WooL.-An ex 'raordinary excitement
in the wool market of Boston occurred
last month, the sales aggregating over
4,OOO,O 600 pounds. The prices paid were
for double extra Ohio, 65 to 81 cents per
pound; for extra and double extra New
York and Pennsylvania, 60 to &C cents,
extra Michigan, 60 to 62l cents. But
little of the 1000, 600 pounds was sold
lower than 60 cents. Usually December
is a dull month in the wool market, but
the fact that the markets throughout the
country are short of domestic wool is
the explanation of the panic.
