has risen from two hundred TO three
hundred million dollars. In iron and
cotton the greatest advance is credited
to the Southern States.
1t is not surprising that foreigners,
learning these facts, are tloukinS to
our shores at the unprecedented rnte
Of half million year, and that tho
rate is fast increasing. There arc vet
millions Of acres Of land lying idle aud
millions Of resources not developed.

The Great Republic.

The census of 1850 is Il mammoth ad-
vrrtisc,ncnt Of the wealth, progress
and resources of the United States.
.and' each succeeding volume Of this
huge compilation Of statistics is II
fresh revelation. The Increase III
population was startling enough, bul
material progress has kept equal pace
with j.. The United States is already
one OF the strongest andrichest nations
III Christcndom, and indications are
that before many years it will be with.
oAt an equal.
III the past decade the population in
creased thirty per cent, reaching over
nifty millions. OF this number three
millions were drawn from other coun-
tries by immigration. At the present
rate ofincrcaSc, the year 1900 will dawn
npon population of hundred mil
llons-a mnch larger number than will
be found IN any nation of Europe.
III the number and Importance of its
cities, the United States stands third
in the list. Great Britain and Russia
alone have n greater number of cities
containing twenty-five thousand in
habitants, and in ten years more thcv
will DC surpassed. In the United
States are already hundred cities Of
ovcr twenty thousand, aud two hum
dred and cighty-fivc Of eight thousand
population. In 1860 one-cighth of all
the inhabitants lived in cities; in 1870,
onc-fitth; and in 1880, one-tourth-a
striking illustration Of the increased
importance ofmanutacturing and other
urban industries.
Since 1870 the wheat crop has in
creased sevcnty-thrcc per cent. and
the corn crop one hundred and thirty
three por cent. The rott.", crop has
increased from three million to six
million bales, and the wool clip has
about doubled. Still more marvellous
is the growth Of our export trade in
farm and domestic products, From
1870 to 1880 the bread and brcadstutls
sent TO ioroign countries advanced il
value from scyenty-two to two hun.
'dr"d and eighty eight million dollars
provisions from twenty-nine to one
hundred and twcnty-scvcn million
and live animals from one to tirtcc,
million dollars. This remarkable 40
ricultural advance has been ATTENDED
with an equally striking extension O
the transportation system of the couu
try. There aro now two miles of rail
road where there vas one in 1870
While the cost Of moving agricultural
products from tho Northwest to tn,

PETTY LARCENY IN WAsulNGroN.-
There is II decided tendency in the de-
partncnts at Washington towards.
petty larceny. The disclosures con-
Gtrnii 8 the StenlngS ~ the treasury
may or may not be followed by other
revelations, but the same conditions
and facilities for stealing exist every
where. The man who was directly
guilty Of the thctts was enabled to pur-
sue his pilIeriny because he had ac-
'mpl'Ccs among his Gil .,eriOr officers
III the department. One Of them had
entered into combination with him
while he was chief clerk, and coutin
ucd on after he had been made assist
ant secretary OF the treasury. 1t is II
fact that, under the present system Of
appointments, to" many congcninl
people get together; there is too nue.,
co'nradeShip, and there is also too
much temptation to make hay while
the sun shines on account of the pre-
cnrlous character Of the tenure Of
office. Petty larceny and bribery and
al SORTS OF mean crimes have come To
DC very little thought Of. apparently,
o! thc men VINO are engaged in poll
tics. 1t seems rs though there nlirhl
DC some system Of appointments de-
viscd without too much straininy of
thc official intellect which would give
the government clerks without n y M
chant for picking pockets or selling
ont for small sums. .-Phiia0eiDhiu
Times.
Nor ENoUaH TO SGN.-Elcvcn sa-
loon Keepers in Constable Hook, a sec.
ton OF Bayonnc, have been unable to
procure licenses because there were
not sufficient number of property
owners to sign their applications, each
application requiring ten signatures,
and no propcrty-owner being per-
mitted to sign more than one upplica-
ton. All ingenious scheme was hit
upon to surmounr the difficulty. John
Van Buskirk, an cx-councilnitn. who
owns u large amount Of property in
! that section, transferred two acres tu
his son, aud he transferred the two
acres to one hundred and eight per.
sons, taking mortgages for the full
value OF the property. This enabled
every applicant for n license to get tho
necessary number of signatures. The
plan did net work, however, for the
city council decided that property nc.
CURED in that way did l"t constitute
the nominal owner Il trccholu,. in the
sense required by The aw.-Ncw york
