a census was taken and they were found t

q census was taken and they were found to
amount to 1896. Since then, notwith-
standing the bad effects Of removal and
civil war, they have increased to 81, or IN
1876. In 1921 the Seminoles were esti-
mated at 1850, in 1885 at 2,063, in 1888
at 5000, in 1860 at 2,267, and in 1876 at
1858. In 1860 the 1roquois were estimat-
ed at II, ZOO, in 1868 at IL $50, and in 1877
at 6,7l5 in this country and {, $50 in Caua-
da. These facts do not support the ex-
tinction theory. The testimony of mis-
sionaries among the Sioux is adduced to
show that that great branch of Indians is
not only retainingits strength but actually
growing. Furthermore, the proportion Of
births and deaths among the Indians fol
the last three years points to the same
conclusion. This record has only beer
kept since 1874. and too much stress
should not be laid upon it, but with sothe
Indications it has some force. In 1874 tn,
excess of births was 2l.54 in a THOUSAND
individuals; in 1875, 9.S2 and 10 1876, 6.07
If these statistics be fairly gathered ant
fairly presented there is some reason {
think there is still hope for the 'preserva
ton of the Indian. Certainly from thi
time forward we ought by means of wise
treatment to be able to protect the abor
| igines from the effects of such naturs
scourges as disease and famine, and at tn
same time refrain from slaughtering then

Little information as to the tendencies
OF Indian population can be gathered from
these statistics, as the area covered in one
census may differ from that covered in a
previous one aud the good judgment of the
estimator forms an important element in
the calculation. Accepting the figures
given since 1850 as nearly approximating
70 the true ones, we may assume that the
Indians are holding their own, or at least
that the process Of determination is much
slower than'it is popularity supposed to be,
the apparent decrease in 1876 being due tc
the remuneration OF the Dacotahs
The examination OF the history of particu-
lar tribes throws further light on this mat
ter. 1t was estimated in 1922 that tn,
Cherokees numbered 10000; in 1868 Mr.

MIR. BoUTwELLs NEW EDITION
OF THE REVISED STATUTES.
Resume of the Work Accomplished.

According to yesterdays Washington
dispatches, ex-Seeretary Boutwell,, who
has been engaged for eight or nine months
in the preparation of a new edition of the
first volume of the Revised Statutes, un-
der an act of Congress, has now completed
his work and will place it in the hands Of
thu secretary of state tomorrow. The
following information concerning the work
will be of interest to lawyers; Mr.. Bout
well has prefxed to the new volume the
constitution of the United States, fully
annotated with references to all the deci-
sious Of the United States supreme court,
| referring to each section aud to each
clause, where section contains more than
one. He has also prepared an index
to the constitution. In the body of the
work he has made three changes,
First-Where congress has enacted YER
bal alterations of sections of the revised
statutes the addition or alteration is in
serted verbally 10 its proper place, but in
type different from the body of the
work, and he has added in each case a
marginal note referring to the statute
authorizing the change. There are about
one thousand such changes.
Second-He has reference in the mar
gin against every section which has been
amended by congress since the revised
statutes were adopted, in December, 1878.
The reference points to the statute by
which the amendment has been made,
giving the date, and where no reference is
made the reader knows that the statute
remains unchanged
Third-He has given marginal refer
euce to all the decisions of the supreme
and circuit courts of the United States
bearing on any section of the revised
statutes which has been interpreted by
any of these courts.
Finally, he has revised the index 1t
should be understood that the act of con
gress did not authorize Mr.. Boutwell, to
revise or codify the statutes enacted since
1873, and he has not therefore touched
them, but has referred to them 10 the
appropriate places in the revised statutes,
as above stated.

Our Indian Population.

SO much has been said of late about the
barbarities of the Indian tribes on the
frontiers and SO many of the tribes have
been thought to be on the point of being
extinguished, that it may be matter Of
interest to many to see the statistics which
have been gathered in relation TO the num-
Der of these gentle savages within the
limits Of The U. s., aud the slowness of the
process Of their extinction.
The pamphlet on the various estimates
of Indian population which John Eeaton,
commissioner of education, has submitted
to r, a. Hoyt, commissioner Of Indian
affair, is full of interesting information, anc
affords the best attainable basis of fact:
for the theory that the race is not destined
to absolute extinction Of course, any at
tempt to trace the advance or decline o.
the Indian population is attended witt
great difficulty. In the very beginning O
the task we have to deal with conjecture
and even in taking up the last enumera-
tons prepared by the authority Of the gov
eminent we are compelled to rest conten
with guess work. The duty of estimating
the Indian population of the country wa
conscientiously undertaken in 1889, and i
may be worth while to copy table o
eighteen estimates completed since tina
time, promising that those made previou
to 1850 did not include the tribes of Texa
and the territory won from Mexico, an,
were generally fragmentary and iucom

SHE WANTS TO Handsome years
ago, Ann NJ. Victor, of Cleveland, Ohio,
was arrested, convicted, and sent to
the Penitentiary for life, for having
poisoned her brother. She was found
guilty Of murder in the first degree,
and had earned the gallows, but being
a woman, the authorities commuted
her sentence to Imprisonment Tor life.
Now, after having spent a number OF
years in solitary confinement weep
ing half the time, she asks to be taken
out of the penitentiary, and hung &C.
cording to law, so as to end her misery,
The case is now before the Courts and
the Attorney General, and the singular
request Of the woman has produced q
sensation among the authorities. She
is evidently insane, although hor attor-
neys insist upon her perfect sanity,
avering that she would rather be dead
than to remain any longer in the pen
itentiary. Truly, the way Of the trans
gressor is a hard one, and no distinc.
ton is made as to age, sox, race, or
"previous condition.

A STUDY FOR BoYs.--An exchange

aire who died in Boston last week, was
a most remarkable man. When seven.
teen years of age he went to Boston,
and when near starving, got employ.
ment as an oyster opener, In the cellar
of Concert Hall, for which labor he
was paid eight dollars per month. He
was finally promoted to waitersbip
in the oyster saloon. In that building
ho remained until be owned il, and
when worth 100000 he still wore
an apron and waited on customers.
When he became worth 100000 he
retired from business. He was con-
sidered the best judge Of the value Of
property of oil kinds in Boston. He
died a bachelor" Not too proud, with
industry and economy is what made
Mr.. Brigham great man, although he
may have lacked some good qualities

GAMBETrA. .BLAIsE.--The editor OF
the Baltimore Gazette, after taking o
look at both continents, concludes as
follows: "Mr. Blaine is not the only
man in public life who knows how TO
work up dramatic situations in a try
ing hour. M. Gambetta understands
the art as well as he. After Gambetta
had stood up in the Chamber of Depu-
ties and let o broadside into the gov

WHAT A SPEorAcLE.-We are "a
very great nation" in the estimation
ofsomepeople, but thel last "eye-opener"
that has come before the public is the
appeal of great big rogue, guilty Of
perjury and forgery calling upon our
Fraudulency, who is in possession OF
the stolen goods, to shield and protect
him from having tho penalty of the
law enforced against him. A Wash.
ington telegram of the 4th Of July
says.
Tuesdays cabinet meeting was unpleasantiy
interrupted by letter from J. Madison Wells 10
Mr. Hayes Informing him in detail Of the indict-
menis found agninst himself and Anderson on
the 2sih Of jane. and asking for help In bis ex-
tremity. No one appears to have had any
very pertinent suggestion to make t this singa.
lar appeal. which tho singular title Of the Prcsi-
dent made possible. II Is the current belief Of
the cabinet that Nichols will interfere to pre-.
vent sericus reguils. aud that after worrying the
old men little The indictments will be nolied.
a very singular state OF facts, that
the President should be the man who
accepted the result Of the fraud for
which Wells and Anderson are about
to be, or have been, indicted. But the
Washington cabinet cannot interfere
with the administration of justice in
state, The guilty ones in tho great
crime Of stealing the Presidency,
whether as principals or particeps,
should be punished to the extent Of
the law.
