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% In the apportionment of represen apply, and in Congress there will probably be one representative for each 169,822 or 170,000 voters, and according to estimates given, on the basis meéniioned herein, the States would have the following: Atlantic States— Maine 4,. New Hampshire 2, Vermont 2, Massachugetts 8, Rhode -Island 1, Connecticat 3, New York 28, New Jer-~ sey 5, Pennsylvania 21, Delaware 1, Maryland 4, Virgioin (including West Virginia) 10, North Carolina 6, South Carolina 4, Georgia 7,Floridal. Total 107; against 120 at present. “Western, Pacific, and Gulf States—Alabama 6, Mississippi 5, Louisiana 4, Texas 4 Arkansas 3, Tennessee 7, Kentucky 7, Ohio 18, Michigan 8, Indiana 12, Lilinois 16, Wisconsin 7, Iowa 7, Minnesota 2, Missouri 10, Kansas 2, Nebraska 1, California 4, Oregon 1, Nevada 1, Colorado 1. Total 126; against 115 at present. Tho following States lose representa. tives: Maine 1, New Hampshire 1, Massachusetts 2, Connecticut 1, New York 3, Pennsylvania 2, and Maryland, Virginia,, North Carolina, Louisana, Tennessee and Kentucky, one-each." The States gaining are as follows: Michigan 2, Indiana 1, lilinois 3, Wis. consin 1, lowa 2, Minnesota, Missouri, Kansas: and Calitornia;one each. The new basis will give the valley of the Mississippi and the West a majority of nineteen votes in the House, and when all the States are representes in the Senate, a majority of ten in that body. At present the Atlantic States have a’ majority of five in the House. The as follows ; Atlantic States. .,-..18,353,698. West’n & Pacific States. . 20,859,815. Territories .. 850,000.

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. Tuk question is, hdwever, ‘doés the THANSCRIPF oppese the immigration of Chinese for labor purposes 7—@. V. Union. 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. ‘ A DIsPATCH from Chi¢ago announcer thata car load of fruit shipped from Sacramento, had been received in Chix cago ip good condition, and was readily eold at good prices. —AH-that is neccshero and the Eftt important, “is low freights on the railroad.

After ypu leave Elko, the line of sage brash to the foot bills is undiversified by any symptoms of habitation. for many dreary miles. Toano is the place for supper.

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.
