this expense is, it is not as great burden
to country as the withdrawal of ten mil
lions of able men, in the prime OF

only this, but accustoms many of them to
a life of idleness and dissi patton; the alb
sence Of such curse is one Of the elements
Of strength in this nation. All the dis
honesty of functionaries in our midst, sad
as ii is to contemplate, can not produce
the utter ruination which is the result Of
active standing armies.

The Growth Of Massachusetts,.

The latest biographies say that "Massa-
chuseets has more cities than any other
State in the Union" There are nineteen
of them, as follows, their INCORPORATION
being i'll the order named Boston, Salem,
Lowell, Cambridge, New Bedford, Wor-
cester, Lynn, Newburyport, Springfield,
Lawrence, Fall River, Chelsea, Taunton,
Haverhill, Somerville, Fitchburs, HoIyoke,
Gloucester and Newton. The last named
was Incorporated in 1873. The census re-
turns of all the cities, except New Bedford,
are in, and the aggregate of the population
reported of the eighteen is $40, 100 in
round numbers, which represents abont
half the population of the State. There
Is significance in this fact, showing that the
cities really rule the State. The average
percentage Oe growth i'll the last ten years
has been only 40 per cent, the smallest
rate being that of NewburypOrt, which
was less than 3 per cent, and the highest,
that Of Holyoke, 1870 per cent Boston's
rate OF growth was ~ per cent. The larg-
est cities rank as they did ten years ago
Boston, Lowell, Worcester, Cambridge,
etc. Fall River has surpassed the fifth
place, passing Springfield, Lawrence, Sa-
lem and Lynn. Lawrence stands sixth
Lynn has passed Springfield, and Salem
drops to the seventh. New Bedford stands
ninth. The census returns also develop
the fact that five cities which were towns
in 1865 have gone beyond Newburyport,
which was lowest on the list ten years ago.
Both Newburyport and Salem, once i'm 4.
portant commercial cities, have passed into
state of mellow decay. The former place
IS now but thousand population ahead Of
Fltchburg, which is now the city of the
smallest population. Newton. the young
est city, is now larger than some of the
older ones

Iron Manufacture.

The history of the growth of the iron
manufacture. in the United States within
the last fifty years exhibits remarkable
progress. From a production of %, 900
tons in 1910 it had become 100, 900 tons in
1880, 348, 900 tons in 1910, and Coz, 900
tons in 1850, as near as can be estimated.
In 1860 it had reached 9I9, $40; in 1870.
1865, 600; and in 1872, 2,S8O,07O tons;
while the diminished production of 1873.
2,695, 434 tons, shows already the effect
OF the depression under which the iron in
terest of the country still suffers. of the
production of 1873 very nearly one-half
was made in Pennsylvania, and not less
than |, 249, 673 tons with anthracite while
the total amount of charcoal made pig iron
was only 524, 127 tons, to which are to be
added 90, 600 tons of malleable iron made
by the direct process in bloomeries. The
Importation Of foreign iron and steel for
1872 was 795, 655 tons for 1873, less than
2oO, 900 tons. From the figures for 1872
and 1873, We may conclude that the con-
sumption in the United States was then
equal to about $500, 600 tons of iron year
