POLITICAL NOTES.

. The Maine State Democratic Convention
at Portland on the 14th nominated Joseph
II. Williams for Governor. The resolutions
adopted reafllrm the platform and principles
of the st. Louis Convention; characterize as
a monstrous political fraud the reversal Of
the election of s. j. Tilden as President, and
ask an amendment tD the Constitution which
will make a repetition impossible; declare
the restoration to the common rights of cit
izenship of the people of three Southern
States, long kept subject to military occupa-
tion, just acknowledgment of Democratic
principles; that the Democratic party acts
upon principle, making no factious opposi-
tion, and opposes only what Is wrong in
the Administration in possession OF the
Government; also denounce the demonetiza.
tiou of silver, and demand the repeal OF the
Resumption act.
The Free-Traders will hold a convention at
Saratoga, Sept 8, to form a permanent or
ganization of the National Free Trade League.
The Greenback Convention of New Jersey
was held on the 14th at Trenton. Gen. Thos.
d. Hoxey was nominated for Governor. A
resolution demanding the immediate repeal
of the Specle-Resumption act was adopted.
Senator Conkllng had splendid reception
on his arrival at his home in Utica, N. Y, on
the l4th. U, s. Senator Herman delivered the
welcoming speech.

Census of the World in 1879.

The population of the world may be
given at /, ,423, 017, 900, of whom nearly
one.fifth, or 800, 179, 900, reside in Eu-
rope, and probably 100000, 900, or less
than one-third, belong to the European civ
ilizations. Foursevenths of the worlds
people, or 1924, 900, 900, reside in Asia, and
half Of these are Chinese. The pOpula-
tion of America, natives included, in
both divisions of the continent, is only
So, 900, 600, of which about half are of
pure bloOded European descent. The
population of Africa, arrived at, of
course, by more or less careful guessing,
is set down at 1O9, 100000, of whom
per cent. can be fairly set down as civil
lied men aud little more than 10 per
cent. are half civilized. The Turkish
Empire is estimated at 46, 600, 900, includ-
ing 20,00O,000 in Egypt and its depend
encies, with Tunis and Tripoli; but the
population in Europe is only 5000, 900,
and in Asia 13,000,000. Half the Euro
pean population of Turkey at least is
Bulgarian, and if we add the Greeks
and Sclavs we shall find that the dom
inant class does not exceed one.fourth
of the whole, to whom the other three
fourths are sacrificed.

COssaek Outrages.

A correspondent at Yeni Saghra tele-
graphs: Il went with the Turkish army
on the 14th to Chainbaghaz. At Laneli,
two hours and half from the pass, l
saw the bodies of 1870 persons murdered
by Cossacks and Bulgarians. Among the
victims were two women, one very beau
tiful and young. She had been killed
and thrown naked in pool of water. l
saw families, including children, who
had been thrown into we'll. The houses
of these people and the handsome en-
broidered dresses of the women showed
that they had been rich. In one house
the women and young girls had been
shut up and subjected during ten days
to outrages by Cossacks and Bulgarians.
The Bulgarians, when they heard of the
arrival of the Turkish army at Chain
baghaz, carried off the Turkish women
and children from three to thirty years
of age, and fed to the Balkans. The
victims whom l spoke about were all col
lected together and murdered in success
sion. Many more were butchered, but
have not had time 70 go and see them"
