SIGNIFICANT FIGURES.

The Rapid Increase of the COlored Race In
America, as Demonstrated by Secretary
Allen of the Freedmen's Aid Society
Some Startling Figures for Political Econ
omists to Ponder.
CINCINNATI, O., May 27.--At the ses-
sion of The Presbyterian General Assem-
bly, yesterday morning, Rev. DIR. R. II.
Allen, Secretary of the Freedmen's Aid
Society, made a long speech following
the presentation of the report of that So
ciety. To Illustrate his remarks he had
hung on the wall back of the platform Il
map twenty feet long by twelve feet
wide, showing the ratio of black to white
population in the Southern States, 1t
was very startling map and when ex-
planned by the earnest speaker, made a
strong and lasting impression. Here are
few of his significant facts
Twenty years ago, at the close OF the
war; there were in the Southern States
g,947, 600 colored people; now there are
more than 1000, 900. Then there were
in Mississippi 220, 900 negroes; now G50,-
600. Then there We're in Georgia 454,-
UOU negroes; now iE0,VUu lHGu lncte
were in South Carolina 100000; now
more than 600, 900. Five hundred colored
babies are born in the United States
every day. The colored population
doubles every twenty years; the white
population only once in thirty-tive years.
Eighty years will not have passed before
the negroes will be in a numerical ma
iorty in some Of the Southern
States. At the present rate of increase
in 1885 there will be 96,000,000 white
people in the United States and 1872, 000,-
900 colored people. The day is not far
distant when it will be physical impos-
sibility to continue the present practical
disfranchsement of the colored people of
the Southern States. In South Carolina
he has bought and paid for 100000 acres
of land, which he cultivates. In the South
he pays taxes on more than $9l, 900, 900
of property. He is editing, printing and
publishing LOG newspapers. And yet of
the 7,000,000 colored people OF this coun-

An analysis of two Jugs of water taken
from the river and from a well made by
Prof. Kedzie, showed that both the waters
were unfit either for drinking or culinary
purposes. The examination OF this wa
ter awakens surprise, not that many are
sick in Plymouth, but that any should be
well. Police Surgeon French and DR..
Shakespeare, of the Philadelphia Hospital,
left for Plymouth yesterday afternoon,
for the purpose OF inquiring into the
wants of the afflicted people.

THE DEBATABLE LAND.

Interest Created by the Visit of the Senate
Committee on Indian Aflairs in the In
dian Terrtory-A Delay Asked Pending
the Territorial Election.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, May 25.-An In
dian Territory special says: The Senate
Committee on Indian Affairs have ar
rived, and their visit is creating great
interest. They began their work at Mus
kogee, Greek Nation. The most import
snt question other than the sale OF
Oklahoma and the Cherokee strip will be
that of citizenship. The Indians say
their territory is being overrun by whites
claiming Indian blood. Many hundreds
have been declared intruders, and or
dered to leave, but the Interior Depart
ment has interfered and prevented their
eiectment. The proposed sale OF lots
in the western portion OF their territory
is being warmly discussed. An outright
sale is generally opposed; but Its advo-
Gates claim it is gaining ground. In
the Cherokee Territory there is wide
diversity of opinion, and a COM
munication, signed by many leading
Cherokees, has been sent to the Presi-
dent, asking that he defer sending the
special committee, who will negotiate for
the purchase, to the Territory until after
the election Of the new Legislature in
August, so that the measure can be
brought before the people and deliberated
upon during the campaign. Although
there is no decided stand yet taken by the
leaders of the five tribes, who must unite
in decision, the opinion prevails that
Bushyhead, principal chief OF the Chero-
KEGS, favor a sale. McCurtain, Governor
of the Choctaws, is also said to be in
sympathy with the movement to dispose
