STATISTICS OF POPULATION.

Description of the Latest Completed
Work of the Census Office.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 10.-Superin-
tendent Porter, of the census bureau, has
issued very interesting and valuable
bulletin which shows by statistical at
las the increase and decrease of popula-
tion of the United States from 1880 to
1890. This atlas, by series of maps, ex-
hibits to the eye the varying intensity of
settlement over the area of the country,
the distribution of the foreign population
among the several states and sections,
and the distribution of population in ac-
cordance with maximum and minimum
temperature, rainfall and altitude. The
map shows that in very large number
of counties the population has actually
decreased.
Location of the Decreases.
The number of counties that have de-
creased in population during the past ten
yeas is 455. In about fifty cases the reduc-
tion is due to the reduction of territory
In 1873 counties the number of inhabitants
diminished during the decade preceding
1880 The losses during the past decade
occurred mainly in the central parts of
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New
York, northern New Jersey and eastern
Virginia, and are scattered quite gener-
ally through Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Ten
neSsee and Kentucky. Southern Michi-
gan and Wisconsin have also suffered,
while in eastern Iowa large proportion
of the counties have lost population.
Much other valuable information is OBJ
tanned in a study of the map. which is
the first ever issued by any census
