The Census Of 1880.

The census Of 1850, says the Philadelphia
Hcror}, will show some striking changes in
population us compared with the returns Of
1870. In almost every section of the Union
there has been n growth, but the increase
has been surprisingly uneven. Thoreturns
thus far received are rarely cOmplete ex-
cept in the case of cities, and not always
then. Enough is known, however, either
officially or semi officially, to show about
what the population Of the country is.
New York city has more than a million
inhabitants, and only three beside--phila-
delphia, Hroeklyn and Chicago-hayc
above half Rmillion while six cities have
between 100000 and 100000. They are
st. Louis, Boston, Baltimore, Cinc;nati, san
Francisco and New Orleans. Chicago has
made q gain OF 6l per cent. in ten years,
and San Francisco comes next with an in
crease Of 81 per cent. The smallest growth
in population is shown by New Orleans, the
number Of whose inhabitants is only per
cent. greater than in 1870 The increase
in Louisville has been only II per cent,
and Charleston has added only few hun.

of 10000. But the rate of increase Of Balti-

| 100 per cent. and Galveston, at the eX-

The growth Of the smaller Western cities
has been phenomenal. Kansas City ha.

Minneapolis, 244 per cent; st. Paul, TO-

But there has also been lively growth il
