GERMAN Emigration,

New York Post.
According to the "Statistical Year
Book for the German Empire" the
population of Germany was in 1879
Al ,22s, 600 persons; in 1858 it had
risen to 46, $4,000, In eleven years,
therefore, the increase of the popula-
ton was 4,634,0o0; and yet during
those eleven years there had been .
very large emigration from Germany.
The emigration takes two forms
across the land frontier into neighbor-
ing countries, and from German ports
for places beyond the sea. The au-
tborities are unable to ascertain the
amount Of emigration over land from
tier, but the sea emigration has risen
very largely, In 1871 only 1921 2
persons left German ports and the
port Of Antwerp for countries beyond
the sea the next year i rose 70 l26,-
$50; but then it rapidly declined until
in 1877 only 81 ,9a4 persons emigrated,
The number then began to increase
until in 1881 there @ero as many as
2lo,647; and since that time there has
been a slow decrease, The German
Statistical department has endeayored
to ascertain The number Of German
residents abroad, aud it computes this
at little over 100000, Of which
nearly 100000 are IN the United
States In Switzerland there are as
many a. g5,2e2 Germans, in Austria
98,442 and 10 France Sl,a8s. The
number Of Germans abroad is smaller
than is generally supposed. Consider
Ing how continuous the German emf
grafton 10 the United States has been,
and how long il has lasted, i might
have been supposed that the aernaps
ii the United States yculd have now
exceeded 2,0o0,0 600

Cleveland Plaindealer.

Cleveland Plaindealer.
The origin Of this term has been
variously accounted for. Some say
that in the early days Of Virginia il
became the practice ID the western
part, now the Piedmont districts, to
refer all legal controversies so the
foremost men in those parts. One Of
these, by tho name Of Lynch, became
quite celebrated for the good jadg-
ment and justice which he showed to
these unauthorized Judicial functions.
and was known as Judge Lynch. His
name was easily transferable to the
methods he had adopted. Others
claim that Mr.. Lynch, tho founder Of
Lynchburg, Va, is answerablo for the
name, though in just what manner the
authorities do not state. Another
derivation comes from one Lynch who
was sent to the American waters to
suppress piracy, and he is thought to
have had authority from The home
government to punish summariiy these
rovers of the high seas without any
formal legal trial.
Still Others state that its origin Is
due to James Fitzstephen Lynch, the
mayor Of Galway, Ireland, in l493.
This man traded largely in Spain. On
one occasion he sent his son thither to
purchase cargo Of wine. The young
Irishman managed to get rid Of the
money with which he had been en-
trusted. He ran in debt for the cargo
to Spaniard, whose son or nephew
was to accompany him back to Ire
land for the money due on the wine.
The young serapegrace caused the
Spaniard to be thrown overheard to
conceal his own defalcation. Great
honor was paid the successful young
merchant.
The old saying that murder will ont
proved true in his case, A sailorupon
his dying bed confessed the crime.
The young man was tried before his
own father, convicted and sentenced
to be hanged. The family and friends
determined to prevent the execution if
possible.
The father, like tho old Roman
Brutus, determined that his sons life
should pay the penalty Of his crime,
and seeing that he could not carry ont
the sentence in the usual way tried an
expedient, He took his son up a
winding stairs TO a window overlook
ing the public street and with bis own
hands fastened the rope about his
sons neck to staple in the wall, and
himself acted as executioner.
