The Death Rate.

The number Of deaths in Europe
every wear is one out OF every forty-three
Inhabitants, or ,. $500 per cent, nearly
double the average death rate in the
United States, which is only one for
every eighty-one inhabitants, or 23-lOU
per cent. The leading countries OF
Europe present the following annual
bills OF morality:
England, | death to every 46; Den
mark, death to every II; Belgium, |
death to every 81 Norway aud sweden.
| death to every II, Austria, | death to
every IL; Prussia, death to every 80
France | death 10 every j..
The United States life tables show a
wide range. From the highest, Ar
kansas, where the annual deaths are
one 10 every forty-nine inhabltants-a
little over two per cent OF population
to the lowest, Oregon, whose death rate
i less than ore-half OF one per cent, or
one to every 2O9 Inhabitants. The fol-
lowing grouping OF States and Terri
tories exhibits the average yearly pro.
portion Of deaths: New England States,
in IS; Middle States, l in s.; South
ern States, in ~ Western States, |
in 81: Northwestern States, | in l2h
Pacific States, | in ia; Atlantic States,
10 50; Cult States, in Is; Missis-
sippi Valley States, l in 81.
These tables give evidence how
lightly we are favored. 1t is general
idea that the longevity OF the Old
World exceeds that of the. New, bat, If
so, it is only in special classes.

REcAPIrrLArloy OF ROBBERY.

1t is barely possible that a portion OF
this stupendous sum NAV be saved from
the wreck, by the inability of the
plunderers TO sell fraudulent bonds and
other intended spoils, But in the
most favorable Light, here is positive
proof, that in ten States deso.ated by
the horrors ofcivil war, and where the
actual property has deprecated fifty
per cent. a. compared with 1850, an
amount OF money has been stolen equaI
10 one-tenth part Of the national debt,
Superadiei 10 the immense loss OF
wealth and oflife, and following 10 the
verv track OF fresh destruction, came
this organized villany which Congsess
licensed vito impunity for crime, and
has protected through all its stages,
with the most odious and oppressive
legislation. OF the two hundred and
forty millions which have been thus
loaded upon the back OF an impover-
shed AMI suffering people, fully nine
tenth. o. that enormous sum has been
absolutely appropriated by the loyal
scamps tor their own uses. That Is TO
saw. they have soli the bonds, osten-l-
bly issued tor railroad and other i'm
provemeuts. for what they would fetch
IN the market, and pocketed the pro
ceeds, without even an attempt to cover
ND the bare'aced frauds, by initiating
these pretended enterprises.
