Some Census Revelations.

Some interesting facts concerning the
growth of our population will be brought
out in our next census The forthcoming
enumeration will show the greatest gains
within decade to have been in the states
of Illinois, California, Kansas, Minnesota,
Texas and Florida, in the foregoing order.
The surprise that Illinois should lead the
column will cease when it is remembered
that she has more miles of railroad than any
other state in the Union, and that her soil
is nearly all of the best possible quality for
agricultural purposes. California ranks next,
as is very natural, almost its entire railroad
system having been developed within ten
years and placed the rare agricultural ad-
vantages of this enormous state within gen.
eral reach. Kansas almost entirely arabic,
wonderfully well watered, except in its west
ern quarter, and easily accessible, comes next.
Minnesota comes fourth, and deservedly, for
her old reputation for superior fertility,
healthfulness, accessibility, intelligence and
society has proved to be deserved. Texas

in which some of her inhabitants have
always been held. Then follows Florida,
a state which has all the natural resources,
mines excepted, that are peculiar to the ma
ton, and offers no organized or local opposi-
ton to newcomers who mean business. 1t
appears, therefore, that natural advantages,
the means of getting at them and the as
surance of security for life and property are
the most potent influences in attracting i'm
migration. Between the states named and
those from which emigrants have gone lie
other states as fertile as any, they are also
rich in minerals, well watered, healthful and
sorely in need of men and money, yet their
population has scarcely increased except
from within. Can they not understand, in
the light of the facts given above, why mil
lions of emigrants and hundreds of millions
of dollars have hurried across or past them

been frozen up by the chilling blasts of an
unsympathizing world 2
ST. LOUIS Republican awe certainly do

but If he must be Governor of some state,
Massachusetts, should have the preference.
She produced him, she has petted him, and
she ought to have the first and fullest bene-
fit of him."
AUGUSTA Chronicle: "The great need Of
the South is immigration immigration that
will settle unoccupied lands, that will de-
velop great natural resources, that will build
up and enrich the country, and that will
stimulate our people to put forth all their
energies in the battle of life"
TOLEDO Blade; "Mr. Tilden says Colo
mel Peltons habits of mind and mine are
very different Inasmuch as the one has
plundered the business community of a for
tune Of several millions, while the other is a
penniless dependent, we should think that
Mr.. Tilden's remark is correct
The formal election of Mr. Chandler by
the Michigan legislature took place last We'd
nesday-the vote standing lightweight for
Chandler, twenty-five for Barnes, and eigh-
teen for Chamberlain. He very sensibly de-
clines a reception at Washington, after the
the manner of Carpenter and Logan.
Two of the Mississippi democratic papers
have expressed wish that Jefferson Davis
be sent to the United States Senate, aud one
of them, the Meridian Mercury, advises that
test of the disposition of Northern demo
cratic members of Congress be made at the
next session on the question of the removal
of his political disabilities.
The California constitutional convention,
By vote of fifty-eigbt to fifty-fcur, has
adopted section which provides that any
member of the legislature proved to have
been influenced in his vote by any reward
shall be guilty Of felony, and, upon convic
ton thereof, in addition to such punishment
as may be provided by law, shall be dis
franchised.
Says the Traveller " Scores of New York
bellies would have sent. Bachelor Tilden a
valentine, but they didn't know how to get
the letter carrier to carry it any further than
to the door of No. 10 Gramercy Park. And
of course, if they had been left that way
he never would have seen them, or heard a
word about them. He never sees letter

Something Gained.


The outrageous anti-Chinese legislation
which Congress is attempting will not be
utterly devoid of benefits, after all, for it
will serve to dispose of some of our surplus
Presidential candidates. Senator Blaine, in
trucking to the unreasoning prejudice which
runs riot in the Pacific states, will lose his
hold upon New England, New York, and the
middle states, without which he never could
stand the ghost of chance for Presiden-
tial nomination. And so of Senator Bayard.
lie is too conservative and high-minded to
compete with other democratic leaders for
the favor of the rabble, while he endangers
his popularity in those commercial states
where his strength lies. In all those states
the anti Chinese measure finds no favor, and
Senator Baysrd's vote for it will be seriou,
drawback TO his chances of the next dem
ocratic nomination. If the bill should be
come a law, our China trade would be de
stroyed, and even in California, TO which
that trade is of no small Importance, the
men who helped to pass the bill would b,
unpopular within a very few years,

Change In English Policy.

All indications tend to prove that free
trade is rapidly becoming unpopular in Eng
land. The reverse of this was emphatically
true so long as the British manufacturers
had no competitors in their home markets,
and no successful rivals in most of the for
eign markets. Then, free trade was urged
upon the world as highly civilized millen-
NAL policy. But time has brought changes.
Other nations have established and pro-
tected home industries which are now, in
some cases, quite equal if not superior to
those in Great Britain. American and Bel
gian goods can be readily sold in England,
and the sale is constantly increasing. Amer
lean iron and cotton goods have, in England
and in the English colonies the reputation
of being both cheaper aud better than Eng.
lish home markets, has checked the talk
about free trade, and moved those interested
to talk in favor of protective tariff for
English manufacturers and we need not be
surprised to see the British government de-
wise some measure that will give them the
protection demanded. The English dream
of making commercial conquest of the
world was grand dream but it cannot
be realized.

Not CreditabIe.

In reply to the question "How shall the
government raise the money that will be re.
quired by the new pension act - the Green
hackers say, Take the coin reserve in the
Treasury" Their idea is to embarrass the
attempt to make resumption permanent.
This way of paying the current expenses of
the government is hardly creditable. The
coin reserve is not so much money on hand
to be used at pleasure. 1t is an amount held
in trust, and is really the property of those
who hold greenbacks, since these bills are in
honesty coin certificates, the value which they
represent being in custody of the govern
ment. There is nothing under the sun tc
prevent the banks, if they choose, drawing
upon the National Treasury for every dollar
of gold in its vaults. All they have got to dc
is to remit greenbacks and demand gold
They are now deferred from doing it because
they have faith that the gold in the United
States Treasury will be held untouched. If
however, it should go to using it to pay run
ming expenses, selt-interest might prompt
them to act differently. Initiation might
easily follow such policy on the part of tin,
government, and another bubble be blown
up TO collapse in another panic.

THE NORTHERN PAciFIc.-The directors
of the Northern Pacific railroad, of whose
executive committee Frederick Billings of
Woodstock is chairman, have determined to
resume building operations, with the view Of
completing the road to its western terminus,
already having let a contract for one hun
dred miles of new road west of the Missouri.
The company has been reorganized, its old
defauted interest and floating debt paid, and
large tracts of its land sold. If Congress
will now renew its old grants of land, Mr..
Billings and his co-adjutors think they can
easily negotiate bonds aud stock, and secure
money to complete their westward march.
1t was the collapse of this enterprise, it will
be remembers |, with the failure of Jay
Cooke in 1873, which inaugurated the long
series of commercial disasters that have
flooded the country since, and its revival
now is indeed a hopeful indication of re-
turning prosperity.
