 As nearly all Of the returns have been handed in to the Marshal's office, we hope Obe able to lay before our readers next week, a complete statement of the whole Dqmllation of our Territory. Ii has been variously estimated, that Arkansas will have population of fl 90 to 35 ,000 souls; this ofcourse will prevent our being at present admitted into the Union. Du- slng the last ten years, our population has uiolC lhdll iHS rltie pI toH $ still rapidly flowing to this Territory, though the principal current seems to set towards the large and fertile Counties of Crawford, Washington and Independence, as these Counties appear to have gained most celebrity in consequence of their be- ing best known: but as the resources of the different parts ofthe Territory are develop ed population must generally increase. No country in the western world, of the same extent of territory, presents greater ad- Vantages to the emigrant, than does the County of Jackson, hitherto so little known, that not even a post-office has yet been established in it. The inhabitants. we are told, do not seek the bottom lands for fertility of soil, as IS common in most coun- tries, but prefer the uplands, which are said to be not inferior to the .richtands' of Ohio, and where every man may have the advantage of an excellent spring of pure, cold water upon his own farm. Indeed there Is scarcely any part of our Territo- Y, where farms may not be had far prefer able, and at much less expense than would attend enriching the farms of the old states.
