that has been seen here, the stock now in the
Kingdom being so much finer and better than
ever before. They are therefore anxious to make
the prizes worth running for, and also to improve
the accommodation for the public at the Park to
the utmost of their power. Alterations and
additions are being made to the stand and other
buildings, and new buildings are to be erected,
and everything done that is within the means of
the. Committee to enable those who visit the
Races to enjoy themselves in comfort. Tt is to

The keWness OF America.

am given to understand that
the great charm Of America
and things American is q
charm of newness. The natural
features OF the country are
as old as those of Europe or Asia

mother cf race; but everything
else is CT yesterday and looks its
age to an hodr. In America moth
ing is ancient of days but the Rocky
Mountains, the Mississippi and the
Yosemite valley; everything else
the people, the whisky, the COnsti.
tltion, the poetry of Walt Whit.
man, the Declaration Of Independ-
ence itself-is obtrusively juvenile.
We fasteners saunter along COM
posedly under the shadow of i'm
memorial oaks and elms; the
Westerners, "the youthful, sinewy
races" are shot about in cars along
avenues Of gigantic fungi.
Their traditions smell of paint
and their glories are odorous with
gliding; their blazon reminds you
of Transparency; they have not
had time to grow famous; they
have advertised themselves into
notoriety, and their fortune, colos-
sal as it is, has a twang of patent
medicines and domestic machinery.
They are great, a mighty, a mag
niticent people; but they are the
parVenu, the nouveau-riche, in the
society of nations, and the fact is
evident in all they do. In the
course of time taey will have lived
themselves into observation-disclosures
will be middle.aged and venerable.
At present they are but the ancient
Britons of their own history, and
though they do not paint them
selves with wood and clothe them
selves in the skins of beasts, nor
worship the mistletoe, nor offer
human sacrifices, they are, in sew

Fhe four largest cities In the
United States. New York, Phila-
delphis. Brooklyn and Chicago,
have . total population Of 3,113,.
esl. In 1870 their population was
2.3l1,SS0. They have, therefore, in.
cRaased about . third in the ten
years. If they keep up this rate OF
growth ten years longer, their total
population In 1880 will be over four
millions, or an average Of million
each.
Yet now the population Of these
four cities, OF whose growth we are
20 proud, taken together, falls short
Of the population.of London alone.
Even II We added St. Louis, we
should not make up so many PEG.
pie 40 London contains. II we put
in Washington also, we get an az
grsgAte population about equal to
that Of London.
London, therefore, contains
about rs many people as New
York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn,
Chicago, st. Louis aud Washing.
ton together. Though the latest
census Of that city was taken eight
years ago. its increase has been
carefully estimated and the popu
lation 10 now put at 1920, S6S-a
total which 10 probably within the
actual figures. The aggregate pop
ulation of the six American cities
which we have named is $3.50, 1884.
And even ten years from now, il
London continues to grow at the
rate Of increase which it has shown
during the last eight years, it will
have q population equal tn that OF
our four great cities put together.
It will contain over four millions
OF people.
These comparisons are not only
Interesting; they are valuable also
They may tend to subdue boast
full spirit not uncommon in new
and growing countries, and they
help US to form some conception Of
the magnitude of the greatest city
ths world has ever seen.
Assuming a continuance of itt
present rate Of increase for cen
fury to come, some English writ
ers have imagined London a.
swollen to q capital of more
than ten millions population
But there is no warrant for any
such estimate, for history teaches
that great cities eventually reach
the limit of their growth, and
thereafter show a decline. When
that period will be attained by
London, however, 10 beyond the
reach OF anything like safe calcu.
lation, but the Indications are that
1t will have been passed before the
next century 10 over.
Add to New York the contiguous
population which really belongs to
II - metropolis, and at the open.
Ing OF the next century it will
have q population as large as that
OF London now, provided the rate
OF increase for ten years past lie
kept up for twenty years longer.
1tie, therefore, not at all improba.
be, Indeed, it is very probable,
that long before the Twentieth
c,ntury Is ended the cluster of
cities OF which New York is the
nucleus will contain more people
than any other city In the world.
But for q quarter of a century to
come London must take the lead,
ana continue to have q population
equal TO that Of any other two OF
the great capitals.
Moreover, the perpetual aggran.
dlzsment Of great cities cannot be
an unmixed blessing to any
country.

The SUN FOR 1881.

Everybody reads THE SUN. In the
editions of this newspaper throughout the
year to come everybody will find:
l. All the worlds news, SO presented
that the reader will get the greatest
amount Of information with the least un-
profitable expenditure of time and eye
sight. THE SUN long ago discovered the
golden mean between redundant fullness
and unsatisfactory brevity.
II. Much Of that sort Of news which de-
ponds less upon its recognized importance
Than upon its interest to mankind. From
morning to morning THE SUN prints q
and women, and Of their deeds, plans,
owes, hates, and troubles. This story is
more varied and more interesting than
any romance that was ever devised.
Ill. Good writing in every column, and
freshness, originality, accuracy and deco.
rum in the treatment Of every subject.
". Honest comment. THE SUMS
habit is to speak out fearlessly about men
and things
political party. and equal readiness to
buke what is blamable in Democrat or
Republican.
vi. Absolute independence of partisan
organizations, but unswerving fidelity to
true Democratic principles. The SUN
believes that the Government which the
Constitution gives US is a good one to
keep. Its notion OF duty il to resist to it's
utmost power the efforts of men in the Ro-
publican party to set up another form Of
government in place Of that which exists.
The year 1881 and the years Immediately
following will probably decide this su-
premely important contest. TIE SUN
believes that the victory will be with the
people against the Rings for monopoly,
the Rings for plumber and the Rings for
imperial power.

THU YORKTOWN CENTENNIAL.

W. IL
The SENTINEL is in receipt Of a most
beautiful steel-engraving invitation to
the Yorktown Centennial celebration. 1t
appears that preparations for the observ-
anceh have been made on an extensive scale.
and that the historic ground where
CORVALLIS surrendered will be the scene
of a magnificent festival. The celebra-
tion will begin on October IL, the ami
versary of the day when the combined
American and French forces made the
first assault on the British lines, and will
continue for ten or twelve days. York
town, the little village where the sur
render took place, is rich in historical
recollections. 1t was one of the earliest
settlements in Virginia and formerly a
place Of considerable Importance, but
this former grandeur has long since fed.
1t ia a town well suited for a centennial
and fraternal gathering of the people Of
the North and South, since it was o Gen.
trail point, not only in the revolutionary
war but in our late civil war. Here
upon a field where they have often met
in bloody conflict, the soldiers of the
Federal and Confederate army will meet
to shake hands and rejoice over a victory
when the country was united, and when
the citizens of Massachusetts, and South
Carolina fought side by side.
