CENSUS 0^1870. -r-Tho ninth oe osos re? veals roan jr cnrions facta about the march o?. population which Westward holds its way. . AU Of th? "Western States have largely increased and multiplied, the centro of population moving rapidly daring the decade in a So a?h-western direction. Kansas' Bhows maoh the greatest rate of loorean?, to wifc; 239.90 {?er cent., uer population being 107,206 ttl8W..and^a^n ^870VvUie nett greatest rate,;p^ nesota, the gam inere Doing loo. 61 per cent. * Iowa ranks third, the gain being 76.68 per cent., and Oregon fourth, the gain being 73.30 per cent. The States in which the population in 1870 was less than in 1860 are New Hampshire, Maine, Virginia and South Carolina, the rate of reduction io New.Hampshire being 2 88 per cent., in Maine 0.22 per cent., in Sooth Carolina 0.26 per cent., and in Virginia 23.26 per cent. The loss in Virginia is, however, doe to the erection of fifty Counties into the State of West Virginia, comprising a population of 442,014, as shown bj the ninth census. By adding the totals of both Virginias, a gain of 4.44 per cent, is shown. According to the normal increase es? tablished bj previous, census tables, the total representative population of the Union should be 41,609,000, instead of 38,113,253. A large portion of this dif? ference between the actual and the ex? pected returns is accounted for by a re? tardation of inorearo in the colored population during the war and since; by wounds and diseases in the Union and Confederate armies; 'by the chook' bf the increase of population during the war consequent on the interruption of mar? riages and the absenoe of huebanda, and by the interruption of immigration by the war. Instead of ibo * expected in? crease of 1,000,000 in the colored popu? lation during tho decade, the increase was but 438,179. Leaving tho planta? tions, where their increase was natural and their children wero properly cared for, thc negress roB?ed to camps and cities,, where vice, want and pestilence speedily cut them off; hence their failure to inorease in freedom ns they did in slavery. It is set down as a singular fact, fully confirmed by statistics, that the number of births varies greatly during the differ? ent months of the year. Taking Con? necticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Mis? son ri, Ohio and Vermont, for tho years 1869 and 1870, as samples, the result proves that Jnne furnishes bat few births-not ouo-sixth of those which May brings forth. July hos about dou? ble the number that June can boast, but still is far below-the general average. August is next lowest in productiveness. The other nine months of the year main? tain something like a general average, with no moro of variation than may be attributed to physical canses. To show the difference between May and June, we will give the .number of births for these two months in the respective Stute? named: Connecticut, May, 1,830: Jnne, 203; Maine, May. 1.802; June, 283; Massachusetts, May, 3,771; June, 567; Missouri, May, 5,781; June, 493; Ohio. May, 7,803; June, 1.059; Vermont, May, 844; June, 128. This variation if too marked to be attributed to accident, and the physiological Oanses must far nish an interesting study to the vita Btatician. A SENSATION m A MISSOURI THEA THE The Civil Bights lsw was severe): strained, last night, at Coates* Open House. The immense structure wa densely packed with ladies and gentle men of the city and surrounding conn try, and not a seat was to bo had fo money. Edwin Forrest was acting i "King Lear." When near theolose o the seoond sot quit a stir was oreated ii the rear psrt of the parquet. It appear that a colored man, named John Gate well, a barber of Fort Scott, had mad his way into the midst of a party c white ladies and gentlemen, and soogL a seat in their midst. This was refus?e The negro, more foolish than wise, stoo there in the centre of the audienci Loud or?es of "put W\m oni\ Put bil outr were hoard on all sides, and hiasi filled the air. Ladies and gentleme roso en moase to their feet. The excih ment inoreased with the loud cries < "put him out!" The negro, no dont indignant at such treatment, stood stil shaking his fist, and apparently dete mined to hrqvp the impending store Larne numbers pi Jad?es left the theati fearful of a riot, which seemed inevit ble did the negro remain in the parque No attention was paid to the play. F o rest lost all his attraction amid sui confusion. At this juncture an offlc stepped up to the negro and orden him to leave tho placo; that it was tl order of tho treasurer of the Ope House that ne should go to the place a signed to oalored people or take b money and leave the house. The mi left the parquet amid a storm of hisst cheers and yells. At this junoture May Warner appeared on the scene, ai with a surprising lack of discretion i a lover of peace and order, turned t! negro bapfe and rebuked the nolioeme The re-appearance of the colored ms who now walked boldly into the cen! of the white people, was the signal fo: general uproar in tho gallones. A other stampede for the door took pie by those who very oorreotly foresi trouble. Several officious individu went and sat down with the negro, for protection. The cries inorosBi Some of Gatewell's friends went to h and advised bim to comply with t rules of the Opera House. After so expostulation the stubborn determii tion of the negro was overcome, accepted tho tendered $3, and left 1 house, remarking that they did not mi suoh a fuss about niggers at Fort Soi [Kansas City (Ufo) IHmes, J)ec. 29 KILLED.-We learn that Jim Wa worth surrendered himself, last week the authorities as having shot and kil Levi Watkins.

SCOTT, Baesnte ?mm ? , , . Tb? .Kav Kl? Trial?. CoiuHBlA, B. O., December 26.-An iasen&e uuS??nue? granite building, at tho Sooth end of Main street, and facing that leading thoroughfare of the town, is the State Capitol of South Carolina, in which aita the United States Circuit and District Courts, engaged at the present time in the Ku Klux trials. In four weeks' time, with Badioal judges and Sacked negro juries, the Government as succeeded in convicting only one of the numerous defendants arrested by the military. The last case tried resulted in a mis-trial, as the jory failed to agree. The one defendant oonvioted was for the very gravo offence of conspiring to in? timidate a certain negro roter, and thus prevent his free exercise of the franchise. For this, he ought, of course, to be hoog; although leurned legal gentlemen say he was oonvioted on evidence which no other court would have admitted, and no other hind of a jory would have be? lieved. Very many of the defendants have dearly established their innocence of Soy complicity or even sympathy with the Ku Klux, and yet they have spent some two months in jail under military guard, denied all intercourse with their families, while those at Yorkville were oot allowed by Major Merrill to have books, papers, writing material, or even a Bible. Ministers asked permission to visit and preach to them, and this Mnjor Merrill also refused. J saw among these prisoners old white-headed gentlemen and bright-faced little boys, ou ly twelve years old, against whom some worthless vagabond had sworn, in revenge, doubt? less, for some fancied or reel injury. Some of the testimony given by negro women was tho most obsceue and filthy conceivable; and, if they told the troth, the acts complained of and described oould have been committed only by the lowest and most degraded characters. Some of the witnesses wore informers and accomplices, who openly admitted their participation in deeds of shocking filthiness, for which they forfeited uil olaim to credibility and richly deserved the halter, whether false or true. To sum. np the whole of this Ku Klux busi? ness: lu the up-country, the ill-feeling engendorod by Radical leaders between the two races resulted in the Governor's arming the negroes, organizing them into militia, and thoir leaders encou? raging thom to commit all kinds of ex ooasos against the whites, even to the i oxtont of murdering the helpless sad unoffending, barning burne, gin-houses and dwellings, and creating a perfect reign of terror. To protect themselves agaiuBt these savages, tho whites organ? ized in secret associations, and in some 1 liuses of desperate necessity, applied Lynch law. To these associations were ' imprudently admitted Bomo of the low? est characters, emphatically styled "poor white trash," and thean latter, oa several occasions, issued forth on their own ; nook, and, without either the knowledge sr authority of the kian proper, indulged 1 in acts of cruelty and lew, debasing j ioviltry among tho blacks, for which ' Lhoy ought to suffer. But when the co? horts and i MI rte of the United States ! announced a crusade against the Ku Klux, these low fellows of tbs baser sort sanie forward and confessed, and became swift witnesses against the gentlemen of ? the country, oharging them with the | srimes which the informers themselves bad committed, and which the respect? able defendants had never countenanced or suggested, and of which no man in his senses coold believe them capable. To illustrate: One tilthy-Iouking fright of a'negress on the stand swore that four of the klan took her from her house into the rood, and successively ravished and performed other low and disgusting out? rages on her porson. This, nt the trial of several gentlemen of wealth and re? finement, having charming families, and to whom even the seductive allurements of a city courtezan would appeal in vain. Suoh men might fight and kill, if need be, but never oonld stoop to such deeds as these informers asserted, and as theso informers alono committed. A look at the parties was enoagh to convince ono of this, without the aid of the alibi, which, in this instance, the defendants dearly proved. The negro woman pro? bably told the truth, but the low white witnesses against the accused were the fellows who oommitted the outrage, for they know all about the affair. The ? court is in session still, and these trials ! will continuo for some time longer. The ! up-country is fast becoming a wilderness. One direct result of all this military in? vasion will bo tho total paralysis of the planting interest in about one-half, and the best half, of the State. The whites will not be able to carry on tbeir farms, and what will the nogroes do for bread? [Cor. JV*. Y. World.
