In 1877 its mining propery was valued at $26,728,722, and it is4 now worth only $3,856,707, a shrink age of $23,000,000 in four years.

Some time ago the New York San published statistics to show that the colored population Iin the Uniited States had increased in a very Inueli larger ratio than the whites duiilg the past decade. The ligures of the cel sus of 1870 were used in making the con parison, although the ltter luni reliability of that en uneration had a ready been conclusively shown. We have been unable to procure this table givilg the population of the diferent States by races according to the last census, and are coInpelled to depiend for it upon memory in the follow ing comparisons: In1 1860 the whites of tile entire Union numbered 26,922,537, and the blacks 4,441,830. There were, in 1870 an increase of' nearly t went y-live iuir cenit. for thie wihiges and1( only' ten p.

We8 lhuI;1en to havl~e neeuir:ate 1:11i ties reL' u-dinig tour States that can hie fah-ii en'f as~ anl average. InI lior'ida~ $ 1 :n m1:mh8v blacks flocked to) eI.s after the0 war. I acconuI~t of their climate and their iladical governmnents, black immligra tion fromt adjoining Democratic States has1 beeni iln excess, while, esp~ecially from South Carolina, ai large numllb'r of whites emigrated. The average, therefore, Is pretty fairly maintained, in 1860 these States contained 1,050, 636 whuites and 936,629 blacks; in 1680 dhe whites numlhbered 1,680,923, the blacks 1,323,400, a gain of forty-two per cent, for the whites and forty-one per cent. for thes blacks. it Is said that no census talken pire vions to the war gives the full colored popuilat ion, because plattrs failed to return all1 their slaves, in order to escape taxation, Whether this be true we know ntot, but hope niot. If so, the comparison would be less favorable to the blacks. We shalh await an1 Antthitative r~e. port of the census of 1880. Whethi .or not It will vary from tile estimates given above, it is needless to say thai any comparison instituhd with the ceiusus of 1870 Is worthless, And large. lf exaggerates the .colored increase. Tihe conolusioni we draw fronm ther above is that, given similar conditions, the races increase ini about tihe sanut ratio, Wilie the fact that the blackl huavo kept thteir' own, or have gained on tihe whites, is proof conclusive that they are not systeatically bulldozed, dlrtuded or malitreated by Southern whites.
