The New York Journal Of Finance
says: g One of the most interesting items
ipths statistics of the South is that re.
.lating to immigration. The number Of
immigrants from foreign countries settled
in the Southern States June 30, 1890,
aggregated 37S,0le, and the number of
persons of Northern birth residing in the
South was A5,930. There were no eta
stistics of foreign immigration in the
South in 1880 With which to compare the
number Of foreigners found in the South

persons living in the South were given

RALEIGH, N. c., Jan. 7.-Delegate J.
L, Bryan, of Wilkes County, created a
sensation in the House to-day by loudly
refusing to occupy the seat which was
assigned to him between two colored
members. All other seats having been
taken no other could be furnished him,
and he left the hall in disgust, and his
seat has been vacant all day. He openly
declared that he will quit the Legislature
first. He is a we'll known Republican
politician of Wilkes County.

So our murders have more than doubled
in five years. With 1920 murders in
1890 ne had only 102 legal executions,
but it should be stated thas there were
126 lynchings. The Tribune says:
The number of legal executions during
the year shows an increase over those of
last wear. The total number was 102, as
compared with 80 in 1889, 81 in 1888, 79.
in 1887, S3 in 1886, and 1OS in 1885. The

Of the legal executions it will be seen
that 30 occurred in the North and 81 in
the South.
In its comments upon this exhibit the
Louisville Courier. Journal says:
Unfortunately the Tribune fails to di-
vide the murders geographically as it di.
vides the executions, but it is evident
to any reader of the daily newspapers
that murders are more numerous North
than South. Every day brings the story
of some brute, who, in q fit of jealously,
or iuAsmed by drink, murders his wife,
and sometimes his entire family. There
is more barbarity North than South
larger and more brutal criminal class, and
character of crime due to covetcusness
which is rarely perpetrated iu the South.

In the South murder is due to drink or

Yet, of the total executions. legal and
illegal, 22S, only thirty.six have taken
place in the North. A glance at the
newspapers shows that bad as the case is
in the South-the penalty is much more
certain here than among the Northern

TomIin,on RrIdee Draw,

A gentleman who is well posted on many matters of general interest to New Haven people was asked yesterday afternoon if he knew anything of importance regarding Tomlinson's bridge and the controversy between Mir. Woodward and MT. Powers, the bridge tender. He replied that the bridge was formerly owned by the Hart ford and New Haven railroad company. When this company consolidated with the New York and New Haven railroad com pany the bridge was owned and controlled by the company.
 The town and city purchased the bridge several years ago, about 1886, when the cost, which was $s5, 1000, was equally di- vided between the two corporations. The toll bridge was made a free bridge after this transfer. Vice President E. M. Reed of the Consolidated railroad had charge of the bridge during the time it was owned by the railroad companies. The present bridge is the third drawbridge that has been at Tomlinson's bridge.
 Regarding the controversy, the speaker had little to say and modest1y requested that his name would not be mentioned in connection with the affair. He stated that when the draw was opened for pass ing vessels, the bridge patrons would be better accommodated if the bridge should be turned half around, instead of being turned partly around and brought back tc position. He further stated that as the half around turn gave better accommoda ton, that plan should be adopted as | the half turn could be made 1T less time than the quarter turn | and the turn back to position. When vessel is passing through the draw thu bridge can be kept moving continually Ii the half turn is adopted, but if the othe plan is used the vessel must pass entirel, through before the reverse motion can b commenced. As far as known to the gen tleman referred to, there were but fev complaints about loss of time at the draw | bridge.
