TOWN AND RURAL POPULATION.

Food is scarce, and the reason why
suggests itself to rejecting minds. The
towns and cities are outgrowing the
rural districts; the number of consum-
ers are increasing in greater ratio than
the producers. Hence the augmented
prices of everything consumed by man
as food. The price of meat has doubled
in the last thirty. years, and as corn is
the chief element in the production of
beef and pork, the price of corn has also
doubled In order to demonstrate the
cause of this state of things, writer in
the New York Independent had the Gu
riosity to look into the relative growth of
the population in towns and country in
the three largest American States-New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio-and he
presents these figures as the result of his
investigation.

SPEEDY JUsTIcE.-The indianapolis
journal tells a story concerning the ar
rest and conviction of criminal at
Michigan City, in that State, which is
probably the most remarkable case of
speedy justice on record. The party in
question stole horse about three
O'Clock on Wednesday morning, and
sold it in Michigan City early in the day,
very early in fact. He was paid for the
animal with check, and about eight
O'Clock, while waiting for the bank to
open so that he could draw his money
and get out of town, he was arrested for
the theft. The Grand Jury was in ses-
sion, and the case received its imme-
date affection. An indictment was re-
turned as soon as possible, the prisoner
was arraigned tried and convicted be-
fore noon, and in the afternoon he was
taken to the penitentiary to begin to
wear out his sentence of three years.

Inc. oftown population in 20 yearsl14 per cent.

But even this does not tell the whole
truth. We have taken only cities and
towns over 1000. Now, in fact, there
are large number of villages of 500 to
800 inhabitants which do not produce
anything in food Thus We have facts,
alike singular and incontrovertible, that
three central States have increased in
the cities and towns seven fold what
they have in the rural or the producing
population. Now, it would be impossi-
BILE to continue that relative increase OF
town and rural population without ulti-
mate starvation. Hence, we can come
to but one conclusion, that the city and
town population of this country must
cease to increase, or We shall increase
the price of provisions to an unbearable
rate, and finally to failure. In one
word, the present condition of things
which We call civilization" cannot con-
tinue much longer.
