At the last census Luzerne's population was 169,615. How many of these went with the new county is not known. The gain in both counties, 33,085, is added to the total of gains. fDecrease in Venango, 4,214. It will be observed that rapid growth ran through the counties in a very streaky manner. McKean county, with its phenomenal gain of 382 per cent. ; tells the statistical story of the oil strikes. Westmoreland's spur was caused by the development of the coke industry. The opening of great coal fields in Clearfield sent that section ahead with a healthful boom. Venan go's flat fall is oasily explained when one remembers that at the time of the taking of the last census tbe oil fever was at its height and that mushroom cities that then containd 8,000 or 10,- 000 people have gone out of existence. Blair county owes its full figures to the go-ahead city of Altoona, which grew at the rate of 88 per cent. Dela ware county finds that the city of Chester and its suburban boroughs had much to do with placing It so high on the list, while Lancaster, Berks, Lycoming, Dauphin, Erie, Lu zerne aud Lackawanna have been sim ilarly helped to the front. The average growth of the agricultural counties is shown to be about ten per cent., and it is seen that few of the mountain coun tries except in the coal and oil regions, have passed ten per cent. The gain in Chester county, seven percent., shows the steady progress of those subruban farming sections, offering a contrast to the feverish trot of McKean. Lumber and oil have helped Klk surprisingly, and old York's energetic steu is a mat ter of interest Cambria, Uutler aud other counties can claim a separate Law Judge, having more than is ne ee'ssary, 40,000, for that purpose.

The great heat in the cities caused the people to still flock to this resort. The hotels are crowded to their utmost capacity. The pro prietors of the various hostelriea have at last awakened to the demands of the times. And the principal houses are now running coaches to and from the trains, also to tbe be: ci. This was something that has long been wanted here. Haturday evening Zimmermen's Juvenile Opera Troupe give a performance of "Fatinitza" at the Hotel Albion. It is jnst such enterprises as this that has made this Hotel so successful. It has opened the eves and purses of the other hotel men. Mr. Lentz already talks of an addition of 150 rooms more to the present accomodations, to be ready for the opening of next season. He ceitaiuly has reason to be proud of what he has already done. Improvements keep on nteadily. There was a time when nothing was done during the season. Tbe greatest improvement is at the lower end of the Island, and it is only proper to give honor to whom honor is due—to the projectors of the Philadelphia and Atlantic City Rralwav Company. The property-owners of the lower end of Atlantic City owe at least a testimonial of thanks, as well as all the assistance they can give to the Narrow gauge Road, for it is owing to that ltoad and its owners that the improve ments which have been made since 1877 have been carried out. To any one who remembers the dreary waste which used to exist in the neighborhood of the old Excursion House at that time, and than see the many handsome cot tages that have been built there, making '-the desert bloom like the rose." it tells its own tale. Furthermore, the assessment of the whole Island in 1877 was less than $600,000, while in 1880 it has increased to nearly 11,500,- 000, or two-and-a-half times in three years. The greater part of thiß increase comes from the improvements at the lower end, which have been stimulated bv the Nariow gauge Road. In addition to these improvements the Nar row gauge by its completion, made a liealty competition with the old road, thereby reducing the fares to a reasonable rate, rendoring a ser vice to tbe traveUng public which they have eargerly accepted, as is shown by the increased volume of travel to the "City by the Sea." Under the management of Messrs. W. H. Gatzman and Ellis Clark, experienced railroad men, with the aid of their efficient and reliable assistants, the road has beeu put in order. The passenger equipment is first-class in all respects; with the two new locomotives lately built by the Baldwin Works they cau reach the seashore in seventy minutes if neces sary ; but, believing that the pullic demands safety with speed, rather ft.an reckless haste, they make their time 100 minutes. Arrangements have been Perfected by which all their trains will he shortly equipped with a powerful automatic brake, thus adding to the safety of their passengers. The many who are now able to spend three days at the seashore for the small sum of ono dollar for round ticket—thanks to the Narrow Gauge—should show thoir appreciation of bene fits conferred by according to this road a gener ous share of thoir patronage. The weather has been warm, but not unpleas antly so ; the bathing is excellent, music good, etc." —From Simla the news of the calam ity to the English in Afghanistan, dressed in its official form, is that "General Burrows has been severely defeated." But Major General Primrose, who is at Candahar—that is, only eighty miles from the field of battle —says bluntly, "General Burrows' force is annihila ted." General Primrose probably knew what his words meant, and as he certainly could have no disposition to exaggerate the fact —for part of the responsibility of this event talis upon him —and without any of that official consideration of public opinion which softens defeats and magnifies victories, it is probable that his is tbe accurate statement, and that the fugitives coin ing into Candahar "in driblets" are the demor alized crowd of non-combatants tiiat goes with the army.
