 The immigrant class in this country is found by comparative statistics to be physi- ealiy inferior to that of the eneral popula- tion, both of the United States and Great Brisian, the difference, for instance, in average height being very nearly an inch in favor of the American born as against the immigrants, and half an inch in favor of the British laborers, who stay at home against their fellows who emigrate.

Politics.

The disposition of the people of this eaotiou to keep in office an efficient man, shown by its reluctance to make frequent changes in tax collectors, town clerks, jndaes of probate, etc, is to the advantage ofJudge Chamberlin, the present inoum- bent of the probate office, should he de- sfre 10 retain that place. Judge Cham berlin's administration of the office has been admirable. He has got it's records in excellent shape, and those having done business with him, and yet having busi- nass slssI in c ,urse of settlement, are alike de siroua of retaining Linn. It is 8 con- venience to have an officer of this nature, who may be found at all reasonable hours ak an accessible and central location, and who will intelligently, carefully and pleas sntly perform the duties which the public require of him.
