A New Empire Among Us.
Ten years ago the population ot the
United Stales, as shown by the figures
collected by the enumerators of the
government, was 50,155,443. To-day,
according to the most conservative
estimates, it reaches 65,000,000. The
average increase in the decades since
1790, when the first count was made,
has been considerably over 30 per
cent. It was 35.10 between 1790 and
1800, 36.30 from the latter
date to 1810, 33.06 between that
time and 1820, 32.51 in 1820-'30,
33.52 in 1830-MO, 35.83 in lS40-'50, 35.11
in 1850-'60, 22.65 in I860 70, and S0.0S
in 1870-'80. The low vhtio of increnso
between 1860 and 18"Wr was due to the

In no other 10-ytar; period, except the
one which closed m isso lid tho ad
vance drop below 32 per cent.. An
addition now equal to that of the last
decade and most authorities believe
that it will be at least equaled would
add 15,000,000 to the country's inhab
itants, and bring tho total up to the
65,000,000 mark. It is probable that
the average reader fails to grasp the
entire dimensions and significance of
this tremendous expansion in popula
tion. The number of new residents
which the country has gained since
1880 is almost as great as that of the
entire population of Spain, as great as
that of Mexico and Canada together,
or as Belgium, the Netherlands and
Portugal combined. The additions to
our inhabitants in the past ten years
exceed five-fold the aggregate popu
lation of the thirteen colonies at the
time of their separation from Great
Britain. In the period named a new
nation, so to speak, largely surpassing
in number that of any entire civilized
country, except Bussia, Germany,
Austro-Huugary, Prance, Great Brit
ain and Italy, has arisen among us.

For the somber room was lighted again
By the blessed sun of leve:
