Press Opinion Of the Porto Rico Eman-
cipat ton Bill.
HAVANA, March q, 1873.
The Voz de Cato1, commenting on the law for the
abolition of slavery in Porto Rico disapproves of
the clause providing for the payment of indemnity
for the emancpated slaves out OF the revenues of
the island. The saving to the national treasury
cannot compensate for what the country may
lose In a political sense. II also thinks that
three years are toe long term for slaves to
remain under the control OF their masters. Had
the question OF emancipation been left to the
people Of Cuba, they might possibly have arrived
at a solution which, while effectualy protecting
their interests, would have prevented measures
which less prudent and more passionate assem-
blies may adopt in future. The Voz closes by
urging the conservatives here to abandon their
stupid policy Of opposition and obstruction before
IL is too late.
The Constancta says the law is to he accepted
as the best that could be procured under the cir
cumstances.
The Dia'to thanks Se1or Fgueras for introduce
ing the three years clause but has nothing further

Our Foreign Population.

llOll dEu utnSlll Vi tu0 lOrelSIl-
born population and of its chief
elements-the German, Irish,
English, and Welsh, Scandina-
Wan, British American, and
Chinese. OF the thirty-eight
and a half millions whom the
census-takers found within our
bounds in the month of June,
1870, five and one-half MILLIONS
reported themselves of foreign
birth. To give the exact fig
ures, 5,567 900 are foreign born.
The census does not stop here,
however but it tgoes in the gen.
ealogy ct the native popula-
ton, and discovers that 9.734,-
S45 have both parents foreign,
and that 1G, ,521, ,233 have a for
eign father, 10, l05, ,627 a foreign
mother. These figures will no
doubt surprise many people
who live in quiet hooks and
corners where the foreigner has
not found his way, unless it be
a stray German music teacher
or an IriShman of all work, but
they willscarcely astonish those
who are familiar with the pop
ulation OF the cities and towns
of the North and West, and
who have travelled much along
the great railway lines. They
present striking tests for essay
ISIS and other theorizers On the
future American race, which
will no doubt be utilized.
They seem to imply that our
original American stock is fast
losing its virility, and it is des-
tined to be measurably lost in
the great current Of more Wig
orous ana productive races that
sets steadily to our shores from
central and North Europe and
from the British Islands. and
which, flowing westward from
the eastern sea-board, is fast
permeating the whole North.
Thus far the American ele-
ments by its superior intelli-
gence, has in a manner absorb
ed or controlled these various
and Heterogeneous materials,
infuSing them with its enter
prise and its theories of local
self-government and education:
but how long can we be sure
that this will be the case 2
What is the American race of
the future, compounded of ali
those elements, to be like !?
What peculiarities, good or bad
will each element contribute? :?
Will the Irishman give us his
thrittless along with his fine
enthusiasm, and the German
his stolidity with his patient
ind. .'stry and economy7 What
is to become OF the negro, and
what part is the Chinaman to
play9 Thesc are a few of the
many questions that present
themselves after a glance at
these curious census maps.

lation is given with great par

can States are grouped togeth-
or. So are the West India
Islands and the Central Amer
can States. Africa is given
but Il single column in the
table, and Asia, except China,
India and Turkey, is allotted
the same space. Among che
curiosities of the table is the
statement that we have 3
Greenlanders among us, 4
Indians born in Malta (hcw
their parents got there is the
wonder) 8 negroes born in
Sweden and 6 in Russia, 673
whites born in Africa, and O.
63S persons who have no ma
tive country, have been born
at sea. The maps cannot, OF
course, take notice of all the
lesser springs which have help
ed to swell the stream of emf
grafton, but can only show its
chief fountains. In the first
map of the series, however,
which represents the total
foreign element, without
distinction of nationality,
all of course, are taken account
of. This map shows the den
sity of the combined foreign
population by purple tints of
five different shades, the light
est indicating sections where
there are fewer than two for
eigners to the square mile, and
the darkest where there are
over twenty. The most strik-
ing thing about this map is
the appearance of the shades
in the North almost exclusively,
the South being a blank,
except for a few small and iso-
lated spots in different States
and a long strip in Texas To.
a Southerner this map must he
particularly instructive, if not
very satisfactory. If the
events Of the past ten years
have not fully convinced him
that the institution of slavery
was abhorrent to moral sense
of the civilized world, this map
ought to make it plain. If the
South had been a vast pesti-
lential morass or u barren des-
ert, it could not have been
more completely Stunned by
the emlgrants of all nations.--
Cheap lands and a genial eli
mate, and opportunities for
profitable business among a
people little given to public
affairs, failed to attract them.
They preferred to take their
chances in the crowded East, or
! to struggle with nature on the
prairies and in the forests of
the West The law of distribu-
ton of foreign immigration in
the North appears from a study
of the map to be this:
1t groups itself densely in
the commercial centers and
the manufacturing and mining
districts of the East, follows
the chief lines of railroads
| through the Middle States,
spreads itself pretty evenly
Throughout the peopled region
of the West, with a marked
