Tho Philadelphia Age says of tho above subject : There has boen a very largo influx of foreign population dining tbo prosont year. Tho number of arrivals registered at Castle Gordon, New York, from January 1 to tho 81st of Ootobor. is 202,440, against 15G.151 for tbo samo period of last year-a roto of influx which equals tho most aotive yoara of immigration. It is deserving of noto, soya tho United States Economist, that a very marked ohango has occurred in tho nationality of tho popu lation arriving at Now York. A comparatively small proportion of the inoroaso occurs in tho ar rivals troin Iroland, tho gain upon last year boing only ? per cont.,' whilo in English immigrants thorn is an inoroaso of 30 por cont.,. and in German of about 40 per cont.

[Correspondence of the Neto Orleans Picayune.] BjvStbop, October SO.-I havo boon travelling in the linost growing cotton rogions probably in Tex as for tho last throe months, including tbo comities of Fayotto, Dastrop, Hays, Caldwell and Gonzales, and I can truly say I havo novor seen such a crop growing as tho picsont, and I bavo boon Uviug in Texas for tbo last tvtolvo years.

Up to o Into hour lr.at nk-ht tbo great metcoi io shower prcdictqd by astronomers had not been ob served in tliia vicinity. Some of our Northern and Northwostoru friends, howovcr, roport a "amall shower" on Monday night, or rather Tuesday morning, as will bo seen by tho following dis patches : THE DISPLAY AT NEW HAVEN, CONN. New Haven, Novembor 13.-Last night o party of from twolvo to eighteen observers, under tho direction of Professor Nowton, counted from tho tower of Alumni Hall nix hundred and ninety-six shooting stare in five hours and twenty minutes. At twolvo o'clock thoy como at tho roto of about eighty to tho hour, increasing to one hundred and oighty tho last hour boforo dawn ; avorago for tho whole timo, ouo hundred and thirty to the hour. Not moro than one-third woro conformablo to tho radiant in Loo. Anothor party, observing ot Shef field Scientific School, obtained results agreeing in the main with tho above. THE DISPLAY AT CHICAGO. Chicaoo, November 13.-Tho meteoric shower at Chicago, partially promised for lost night, woa a tod disappointment, both to the curious and to tho astronomers, as tho motcora woro ecarcely moro numerous or brilliant than may bo seen on any clear night in the fall of tho yoar. From olovou to ono o'clock about ono hundred and fifty woro counted by Profoaaor Saflord, of tho Chicago Ob servatory. Thoy oppoarod to como mostly from tho constellation Loo, in the east, and to movo in nearly o horizontal direction, though mony foil obliquely and perpendicularly, mid tho direction varied as tho constellation changed its position. Ono very brilliant motoor, about 1 o'clock, started from near tho constellation CaiiBsiprod, and, de scribing a parabolic curve, oxtendod entirely acroas the eastern boa vena, finally sinking below tho hori zon. Tho first part of tho night was clear and cool, and very favor._-.lo for investigation, but shortly lifter 1 o'clock a haze came un, nnd tho beavens woro aoon donsoly o.oraproau, so that no further exhibition could bo witnoased. I'hrcc to Pour O'clock.-Two httlo meteors ap peared at three o'clock in the i.oulhwcst, and both went southward from tho position of tho co ._>tolla tion Ursa Major. Immediately nftorwurds another shooting star appcarod fifteen degrcos north of the zenith. Thoro woro not moro than thrco or four of tho whole number that wera not south of that point. The noxt meteor appeared in tho west, forty degrees below tho Konitn, and the succeed ing ono in tho east, near tho horizon; mid there waa a very little ono in the southwest, thirty de grees above tho horizon. There waa au interval of one or two minutes in their flight. The timo thcBO motoora remained in sight averaged ono fourth to ono-balf a second. They woro mostly bolow or between the constollations th . Greater Dog and tho Creator Boar. Three-fourths of thom touched tho southwestern section of tbo Milky Way. UUTEOBS AT BOSTON.

New Yobk, Novombor 13.-A party "watching tho heaven.." last night, from o pr?valo observato ry, gives tho folio wing in relation to the mot carie showers: * Eleven to Three O'clock.-At about 11 o'clock last night the first ono of tho shooting stars woa no ticed at a point noor this city, where somo poins woro token to seo tho number which carno. Only two or threo morn were viaiblo till a quarter boforo threo this morning. Thon within a period of ton minutes threo bright shooting stars appeared at tho south at an oltitudo of about forty-five dogrcc? from tbo horizon. Tho first went eastward, tho second westward, and the third southward, or directly towards tho horizon. Tho bright lino of tho path covered about fiftcon dogrcos. Four lo Five O'clock.-Aftor four o'clock tho shooting atari appeared in groat numbors. Thoy went in all directions, but usually southward, and more than half woro first aoon in tho aoulhwost. Tho only flight approaching a "shower." which was seen in tho course of the night, was at four o'clock and ton minute.!. Then Chico stars darted downward in quick succession. Ono waa excood ingly brilliant and oft a trail which could bo soon for somo timo after it disappeared. In the com ho of ton minutes thoro woro eovon flights. Thon they carno at longer intervals, and for about twen ty minuto i not ouo shooting star was seen. Boforo fivo o'clock thoro wcro eight or ten, howovcr. '.?/hey woro noarly all small. Ono of them, which was vory far distant, acoincd lil.o a long, thin lino of fight, and was viaiblo for Rovoral aoconds. five to Six O'clock.-From fivo to six o'clock thoro woro moro motcora than iu any of tho othor p?riode, though in couBoquonco, partly of the early dawn, none woro distinguished after forty minutes to six o'clock. At about half-past fivo o'clock a largo meteor, as bright and Hashing as a rocket, panned from tho constellation Orion towards tho northwest. Ila train was as luminous as tho brightest flame. DRU-LIANT DISPLAY AT TBOT. Tboy, N. Y., Novombor 14-2 A. M_At half-past aoven o'clock last ovening a moteor of mont bril liant appoaronco, and about tho size of a twonty pound shot, carno directly from the constollation of Orion, and travelled wostwardly until its dis appearance. Its flight was accompanied by cor rum. itionti that abaolutoly glittered aloug its on tiro length. At olovoa o'olook anothor brilliant moteor of tho first magnitude shot from tho boll of Orion, traversing about . forty-fivo dogrooa of tho horizon, accompanied with nebulous light, similar to that which come tory bo dio s exhibit. It como from the east, and took a southerly direc tion, leaving a long trail. During tho ovening, up to half-past twolvo o'clock, noven of those motcora, mostly from the constella tion Orion, passed in a southerly direction. Those wo io all of tua firnt magnitude, and traversed south with long trails. At a quarter to ono o'clock o vc ry largo and brilliant moteor, accompanied with o phoapboroscout light, appeared at the end of tho bioklo, and instantly panned north, marked with all tho colors of the rainbow.
