• A careful comparison of the votes cast at

one to ten. Thus, Harrisburg,.which
twenty itieusand inhabitants, cast 2,057 votes;
and Eattion,,7which claims .twelve thousand
inhabitints, - nast 1,219. Preiiuming this ratio

to be correct, it is•essy to estimate the popu
lation .of oar locality. At the late election,
the city proper. olled 15411 vu'es, and South
Erie 228, making 1971 in all. This would
give Erie 15 480 inhabitants. and South Erie

belief, is very near the mark. •

agent for Ayer's Pills. Sarsaparilla and Cher
ry Pectoral, In South America, who has just
visited the mines with his medicines, and de
scribed tone the process of taking gems from
the earth. A driver places his gang of slaves
in a mad hole, where the gemr are found, and
pans out the earth to the water, like gold
washers. The negroes are naked, to prevent
their secreting the diamonds in their clothes.
They are required to work facing their over.
seer, and forbidden to raise a hand to the
face lest they should swallow the jewels when
found. Yet they do carry them away, by be
coming so expert that they can snap them'
with their fingers from the pan to their
mouth, without detection. Ayer's medicines
are the , talismins for their diseases, and it
was not difficult to exchange, with the ne
groes, - Ayer's Ms in about even weight for
