POPULATION OF NEW YoRK.--1t appears by the full,
but unofficial returns that the present population OF
this State is 260O,374, which is within about six hun
dred of our calculation This gives an increase ofl7O
938 in five years. Many Of the counties exhibit ade-
crease many have remained in sort Of stat. quo
and several show great increase. It Is not, per-
haps, very strange, in country like this, so vast in
extent, that there should be large decrease in SEQ
tons Of the States whose shores are washed by the
Atlantic. New England has felt the effect of the
energylof the Great West and New York and Penn
sylyania are becoming affected by the migrating dis
position of the people being stimulated by the easy
access to cheap and fertile lands beyond the Ohio
and Mississippi. All the old States will hereafter
show slow and gradual increase, while tho Sc at the
West, which are now just budding forth, will exhibi,
great gain in this fres and happy population,
