THE JtfcW IfcVllrt.
The census, reterps of 1850 develop many
r-mark able change's in the relative rank uf
t'.e different Htates. Wlnlo tba whole na
lion bait advanced greatly io population, in
r-ome qnnrlera the progress ho9 been to much
niura rapid than in other, that thnir propor
tionate, amount of political power, ntul of
commorcial end industrial importance, has
been essentially modified. The (res States
nnd the Territutie, have Rained an increase
of population twice a great 09 the increase
( f the clave Stale dnriny the last ten years,
the. aggregate of the former being 5.729,3t2,
and cf the latter, cnly 2.820.539. The pro.
gross of tho slave States, however, during
this period, bus been much greater than that
of most countries, and it only suffers iu the
contrast with Northern advancement on ac
count of the large accessions of foreign emi
gration we bav received
Among the old Thirteen Colonies only two j
have exceeded an increase of twenty five per
rent, over the population in ISM, viz,:
Pennsylvania and New .Jersey ; hnt New
York. Delaware, Maryland, M.iaBuchnst'tt",
and Connecticut, full but little behind us in
this respect.
No section bos incrensd so rnpirily as the

Tbero has been on increase of nearly seven
ty per cent., which is more 'than double the
average increase of the whole nation ; and
wbila this great region contained in IS.'iO
considerably less than one-fonrth of the pop
ulation of the Union, it has now but little
less than one-third of it. We have included
Missouri, although it is a slave State, bo.
caose its interests are almost identical with
the States which bound it on the east, west,
and north, and it is rapidly becoming assimi
lated with them in feeling on noarly all
subjects. It gained a greater increase or
population from 1850 to I860 than any other
slaveholding State, and it now contains more
inhabitants than any of tbum except Virginia,
although in 1850 it was sorpassod by Ken
tacky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and
North Carolina. It presents a very striking
contrast with South Carolina, which, io 1850.
contained but 13,4.r7 fewer inhabitants. But
the latter has gained an increase of only 46,
861, while tbo increase of tho former has
been 519,170.
In only two of the slave States has there
been a positive decrease in the number of
daves. viz: Delaware aud Murylaod, the sta
tistics being as follows :
Slaves in IS.'iO. Slaves in 1860. Dec.
Delaware, 2.290 1,80.") 485
Maryland, 90,368 85.332 4,086
Hat in others the increase has been so
slight as to fall mnch below the averaee in
crease of the elavo population of the whole
rouutry. The total number of slaves io 1850
was 3,200,112, and in I860. 3.999.353. The
increase has been almost exactly at the ratio
ol l$ per cent. ; and while some of the States
have fallen short of this ratio, others have
barely maintained it, and others again have
ir exceeded it.
Ia the first of these classes the States of
V irgiuia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
TnrceBjee and Kentucky may be routed,
meir increase rjeiug as follows :
Slaves In 1850. Slaves in 1SG0
v irgima, 472.528 495,826
North Carolina, 288,548 828,377
South Carolina, 374,984 407,185
Tennessee, 239,360 287,112
Kentucky, 210,981 235.490
iieorgia, 381,682 4C7.461
In the second class may be ranked the
Plates of Alabama, Louisiana, and Missouri,
viz :
Alabama, 342,892 435.473
Louisiana, 244.809 312,180
Missouri, 87,422 1 15,615
In the third class are Florida, Mississippi,
Arkansas, and Texas, viz :
Florida, 39,309 63.809
Mississippi, 309.878 479,607
Arkansas, 47,100 109,066
Texas, 56,161 184,756
The iocrease in Missouri over the prevail
ing ratio is rather accidental than otherwise,
and by no means indicative of a strong desire
to extend slavery there. It is a mere inci
dent of the large white emigration she has
attracted from some sections of the Sooth,
is well as from the North. Into Florida,
Mississippi, Arkansas, and Texas, a large
lumber of slaves have evidently been taken,
tod iu the internal slave-trade traffic they,
vilb Louisiana and Alabama, may be, there
ore, considered importing States, while Del-
.warn, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina,
loath Carolina, and Kentucky, are butter
prepared to act as exporting States.
loorgi falls very little short of the prevail
ig ratio, and has, therefore, probably shown
ttls disposition to buy or sell slaves to or
om the other Blavebnlding States.

t regards the total leugtb of lines, of which

LETTER FROM TUP. F.OITOR, DAT l"D
If tRRiesi'Ro, Feb. 13, 1861.
There is nothing of moment or pecnliar
interest going on here, at present. All eyes,
at this time, are turned towards Washington.
The action of the peace convention is looked
for with great Interest, aod strong hopes are
entertained that something eLTectoal will be
accomplished.
The speech of Mr. Lincoln on parting from
bis friends at Springfield, but more particu
larly bis remarks at Indianapolis, are not only
conservative, bot judicious, and in good taste.
His allusion to such professed Union men as
the Senators of Virginia, and others who
opposed the enforcement of oven the revenue
laws, es en act of war and coercion, was a
hsppy hit: In their view, he says, "The
Uuion, as a family relation, would seem to be
no regular marriage, but a sort of free-love
arrangement, to be uiaiulaiued by paBSionul
attraction."
The election by the Montgomery couven-
tiou of Hou. Jefferson Davis, as President of
the "Confederated States of America," by
which title the six seceding States are to be
designated, wa9 an act not nnexpected, but
the acceptance of the Vice Presidency by the
Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, of Georgia,
who opposed the secessionists until the last,
created somo surprise. That Mr. Stephoos
is a petriotic and Union loving man, 1 have
no doubt, and believe that bis acceptance of
this position is for the purpose of euabling
him more' effectually to induce bis State to
retrace the fatal step sbo bas taken, aud
return to the Union.
Strong efforts are making by interested
and disappointed politicians, to prevent Geo.
Cameron going iolo Mr. Lincoln's Cabioet.
Should these men accomplish this, it will
prove the most soiuidui aud damaging policy
to this State, as well as to Mr. Liucolu, that
could possibly be devised. Pennsylvania is
deeply interested in the success of ber manu
factures, and the development of ber coal and
iron interests, by means of a tariff. General
Cameron is looked upon as the representative
of these great interests in this State, and
should be be prevented from taking a seat in
the Cabinet, as Secretary of the Treasury, it
ia conceded that the appointment will go to
another State. Aod yet selfish and design,
ing politicians are willing to sacrifice the
interests of this great State upon the altar of
their unholy ambition.
The bill for tho repeal of the tonnage tax,
and also the bill for the relief of the Sunbury
& Erie Railroad, are the measures that excite
the most interest in tbn Legislature. The
friends of the former bill have wisely aban
doned the idea of an unconditional repeal of
the tax, aod offer to pay nearly a million to
the aid of other unfinished railroads, and also
3400,000 annually till 1S90, to aid in extin
guishing tho Stato debt, which they .think
can be done by that time. This is conceded
by many of the former opponents of the re
peal to be a liberal compromise. The friends
of the Sunbury A- Erie also nrge strong
reasons why relief should he granted them.
Our representatives, Mr. Bound, of the
Senate, aud Mr. Bisel, of tho House, I am
pleased to say, are both active and watchful
of the interests of their constituents, and will
opposo any measure derogatory or injurious
to the interests of their constituents.
The oil discoveries are a subject of con
siderable discussion at this place, at present'
The Sunbury A Erie road is destined to
derive an immense revenue from this one
source alone, which was not dreamed of two
years ago. 1 refer te the oil wells of Warren,
Crawford and Erie counties. An intelligent
friend from that region informs me that the
product of almoet fifty wells in the vicinity of
the line of this road, are now yielding about
one thousand barrels per day, and that about
three hundred wells are io progress of com
pletion. He thinks io less than two years
the product will bo 5,000 barrels per day.
This oil must all come Last by tbe Sunbury
& Erie road, and at one dollur per barrel
freight, will yield, at this rate, a gross reveoue
of $1,500,000, or enough to pay six per cent,
on it's entire cost. Tbe prospects are that
this road will be one of tbe best pay iug roads
in tbe Union,
f2 (Jen. Jahks' Gun. Tbe rifled cannon
invented by (Jen. James, former Senator ol
Rhode Island is exciting considerably atten
tion. Tbe General refuses to let tbe seceders
have anything to do with it. Tbe gun is thus
described :
"The improvement couBiati in rifling tbe
smooth bore guns, and tbe adaption of tbe
principles of the rifle-patch to tbe projectile
used when rilled. Hut tbe projectile consti
tutes tbe chief improvement, "which is a
pointed cylinder with au Jexpunsive ring, or
band of metals, tiu aod lead, with an outer
covering of cauvass, thoroughly saturated
with tallow, or other lubricuting substance,
enveloping nearly tbe whole of cylindral por
tiou. It weighs more tbau double tbe spheri
cal balls used in smooth bore guns."
" Tbe expansive ring or baud of metals,
with its canvas covering, is firmly Sited into
a broad recess arouud the cylindrical, or bear
ing surface of the projectile, one-eighth of an
inch or more iu depth, and slightly projecting
above its metal part, which proven is all con
tact between it and the grooves of the gun,
and consequent injury to them by abrasion,
bruise or other injury.
"At the base uud of the projectile is t
cavity exteuding uear the length of its cylin
drical portiou, and radiating from which are
ducts or passages, like the mortise bules in
tbe bub of a heel, to the iuuer surface of tbe
expansible band. At tbe moment of ignition
of the powder charge, tbe gases generated by
tbe explosion, rub mio tbe cavity, aud thro'
tbe ducts or possuges against tbe expansible
bund, and ptessiog it out firmly and equally
ou all sides agaiubt tbe bore of tbe gun and
iuto tbe ritle grooves, prevents all escape of
gas, destroyed ail windage, and causes tbe
projectile by reason of its connection with the
buud, to follow accurately tho twist of the
grooves, aud to rotate on its axis on leaving
the oiuzxle. Like the well-known rifle patch
the expansible bund with its outer covering
of greased cauvas, prevents all leadiug of tbe
guu, and being firmly pressed into its grooves
ttloctively expels, at lue muzzle, all residum
of a loroier discharge."
Tbe prompt and unanimous action of the
Army lioard ia favor of bis improvement,
fully endorses its superiority-

A BRIGHT LIGHT AHEAD A UETTLR DAY

It is now more than probable that the
Border State propositions w:ll be reported
to-morrow morning from the Peace Congress,
by tbe committee bonded by Hon. James
Guthrie, of Kentucky. There will be tome
opposition to it, but it will go through with
much enthusiasm.
Tbns far, the commissioners appointed by
Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, have, with
one exception, done their whole duty. Should
they continue to act in this spirit, that which
looked like illiberal ity on his part, will be
vindicated as tbe best policy after all.

Deer Lodge Valley, W. T., uliout tbe middle
of November last, bringing with them a large

to tbe intended victim, he ordered him to
carry it to the guard house : but the young
darkey ratbor smelt a rat, and upon meeting
an eX(uieitely-gotten-up "culled geintnan," a
friend of his, in tbe street, requested him to
curry the noto te its destination, as be bad
something very particular to attend to in an
opposite direction. Unsuspicious ss a sacri
ficial lamb, tbe sable beau agreed to confer
this trifling favor, aud forthwith proceeded
toward the guard bouse in a manner that
drew sighs of admiration from more than one
young ebony bosom. But judge of his sur
prise not to say "owdacious misery" wlieji
tho police officer ordered bitn to be trussed
up to tbe whipping-post, and despite his
frantic avowal that be was"de wrong nigger,"

confidence, with no mitigating ciraumslances,
and, alas I based on friendship.
"Oh ! what is friendship but a name "'
A coi respondent of the Philadelphia
Inquirer, writing front liarrisbarg, says :
'The selection of United States Senator
for tbe short term is beginning to excite
atteution. In this connection a uentlemun is
named who has already received favorable
notice in The Inquirer. 1 refer to Wm. II.
Armstrong, of Lycoming county. Stimula

been heaped upon him during the few weekB
of the prufeut session, his friends will use
every proper eflort to urge his cause. It is

luent uf uur difHc-ulties.
T'lo Committee, on returning, oBorod the followinc
resolution, which were unanimously adopted :
wtiereee, A ciieit nas arrived in the History or toese
Hutted Bintnt more dark and gloomy than at any tune in
uur couutry'a history, since tbe days ol the Revolution
And whereas, It is the duty of every American citizen and
every patriot to use all their influence tu proven', It possi
ble, the horrors of civil war, ur wbat is equally as geat a
calHiiiity, the dismeinlterment of tins, the freest aud best
government ever established by mortal man. Therefore,
neeoived, rant we canitov recognise the right ol any
State to secede from the Union, believing as we do that
tbe illustrious patriots nud statesmen who formed this
government intended it to bo perpetual, and that a State or
any number of States ciin at their own will leuve the
confederacy, is a gross violation of the Constituting, trea
sonable in its porpose, and cannot be permitted without
inflicting the pen.ilty of the law.
Keaotved, That we believe lliut the election of Abrnhiim
Lincoln and Hannibal Fttnnlin, ns Trcsidcnt and Vice
President of the United States, has been the immediate
cauieof all our present dirneulties, and however much this
state of things is bi be deplored, yet we do not consider
this a sufficient cause for a dissolution of the Union. We
will ever reognise the rmht of the people Io elect their
rulers iu the manner and form prescribed by the Constitu
tion. Resolved, Trat we will uphold and sustain am- admin
istration or party that will labor to preserve the Union
And we heartily condeinu ail disuiiiomsts sod fanatics,
North as well as foutn. j
Resolved, That the Democratic party of Pennsylvania :
will do nil in their power to remove from their statute i
books all laws, if any there be, thai deprive the citizens of !
the soutleruHtatea of their just aud constitutional rights, i
and we cordially approve or the t- ugittve wave I jiw, ami
will do all iu oar power to have it eiilunea when neces
sarv. Resolved, That we respectfully recommend in Conrrea
the passage of the Crittenden Border State Compromise, tit
any other satisfactory mdj of settling our preacntditTicul
ties, so that it again brings pence to the country nud pros
perity to the people, that we may again be a happy aud
united people, respected by all the nntions uf the world, an
asylum for the oppiessed, and biing blessinga 01. genera
tions yet unborn.
The following gentlemen were nominated for Repreaen
tative Delegates : Hon William 1. . llewart, Jacob I'm!,
