of, B. MOPAKLAND.Tus Next Census. —Our readers are
aware that during the next year an
enumeration of the inhabitants of the
United States will take place. Mr.
Wells estimates that the population
will be 30,258,300, While another authority puts it at 40,314,200. The Mis-~
souri Democrat in a careful estimate,
based on a comparison of the election
of 1860 with the census cf that year,
and the same ratio applied to the last
election, calculates the population at
39,563,508. The estimate thus made
we deem very reliable, as in most of the
States the ratio is shown to be about
the sameas in former decades. It is
estimated that most of the Southern
States will show un increase of five per
cent. over 1860, while in these—which
lost most heavily there will be no increase. The ratio in the New England
States, itis estimated, will be less than
in the last decade, while New York,
Néw Jersey, Pennsylvania and the
northwestern States have grown with
marvelous rapidiiy. 0%

169,822 or 170,000 voters, and according to estimates given, on the basis

. Bary to make the fruit trade between
this matter. He,in his speech in Ne~
vada, told his people Chinaman ought
they would overran the entire country
in a few years These were the sentiments of every Democratic stumper,
and it was fair to presume that when
Staite Government they would take
some steps to carry out the policy of
the party. What act or resolation of
the Assembly was left on record to
indicate that Democratic policy on this
question was in accordance with the
professions of the party im the campaign? They bad the opportunity of
bringing the matter squarely at issue,
and net only satisfy the people of their
own position bat of compelling the Republicans to take a stand in the matter.
In not doing so they demonstrated, beyond question, that the Chinese agitation was only intended by them as a
means of arousing prejudice, wanting
votes from those who dreaded Chinese
equality. The Democrcts in the legislature could not raise the question because many of their leaders were then
and are now employing this very class.
A Ricutzovs Law.—The late seduc~
tion case at Sacramento moves the Bee
to comment as follows: It is the common and accepted law of the land,
although it doesnot appear upon the
Statute book, that when a single man
runs away With your daughter, or your
sister, and refuses to marry her, you
may maim or kill him, and be’ held
guiltless by a jury of your peers—and
ithe be married to another, you may
shoot him ‘without question,or if he run
away witli'your wife, you. may shoot
him also. The strict enforcement of this
law -at all times, and in all places, will
be hailed with delight by the public,
whe enforces it in his own’ god. right,
will deserve the thanks of the whole
commanity. But before wielding this
great power which the people have almost unanimously placed inthe hands
of every man £0 injured in person or in
family, the utmost caution should be
used.There should be no doubt of the
guilty one, no doubt that’ he ‘hus, af.
ter demanded, refused to make all the
reparation in his power in the cause of
daughter or sister, and after these perliminaries are settled, there should be
no hesitation in inflicting the punishment due to such high offenses.

We deprecate the coming of any
class of people to the United States,who
by religion, education or race, are inx
capable of understanding, enjoying or
participating in a free government, and
more than all, we are in favor of main«
taining a system which shall insure the
freedom of labor. As the'Chinese do
not come up to our standard, we are
opposed to their coming.
; LecTtures.—An exchange suggests
that the interior towns organize for the
purpose of precuring lectures the com~
ing season from the first class lecturers
of the Kast. The proposition is a good
ope. ‘The rail will bring them to us
now in a few days, and they will thus
have an upportunity of seeing both the
country and the people. ‘

—The ground will soon be broken for
this road, which is to tarn from St Paal
(practically from the head of Lake Superior) a distance of some 1,700 miles,
to Seattle, on PugetSound. This projected road, though farther north than
the Union Pacific, is to be constructed
on a lower level, and will, therefore,
ayéid some troubles from snow. The
Chicago Advance says that along the
whole length of the Norther Pacific
line, not.more than 250 miles will have
an elevation exceeding 2,000 feet above
the level of the sea, while 1,100 miles of
the. present Pacific road are more than
4,000 feet above the same séa level, and
over 500 miles of the Union Pacific
have an altitude of 7,500 feet. While
the highest peint on the present line is
8,262 feet above tidé-water, the highest point. on the North Pagific wifl be
less than 4,000 feet above tide-water.
The following facts are interesting:
From the Pacific at San_Francisco to
the lakes at Chicago it is 2,423 miles.
From the Pacific at Seattle to the lakes
at Duluth it is only 1,774 miles. From
Seattle to Chicago, by way of Duluth
(all rail), it is 2,140 miles. From New
York to San Francisco, via Chicago and
Omaha; it ie 2,228 miles. From New
York to Puget Sound, via Chieago and
the Nortbern Pacific route, it is 3,040
miles. Finally, from New York to San
Francisco and the Midway Islands, it
is 10,423 miles. From New York to
Shanghae, via Chicago, the Northern
Pacific and Puget Sound it is 8;756
miles.
