The recent French census shows the following results in cities: Lyons, 332,' 894: Nantes, 121,965: Rouen, 104,721; Havre, 103,063; Doual, 73,900; Alger, 64,714; Grenoble, 50,967; Bordeaux, 321.520.

The list of city brokers now bears the names of eight men irom the upper regions ot the British peerage. The Growth of Our Cities. New York HeraJd. The census figures as they come to us every lew days lrum vasniugion in crease in interest, the growth ot the population in forty years from 17,009. 453 to 50.155.7S3 is in itself a startling fact. There are few people who are conscious that we have now nearly 19, 000,000 more inhabitants than when the civil war with the bouth was begun but it is true. In ten years we have gained over 11,000,000. This gain shows many curious facts, especially in the population of cities, which are worth considering as the centres of popula tion. Newlork has grown in ten years from 942,292 to 1,206,290. This, however, is not as important as the increase in Chicago, the population of which was 293,977 in 1870, and is now 503,304. Brooklyn s increase was marked, but Chicago gained nearly one hundred thousand more inhabitants than her eastern compeer, Brooklyn having ad vanced from 390,099 to 566,789. If Chi cago keeps this pace for the next ten vears she will be the third citv of the Union and seriously challenge Phila- nelphia. The increase in Boston is notable, especially as everybody looks upon Boston as a thoroughly provincial town, but it is due in considerable part to annexation of former suburbs to the municipality. Twenty years ago there were in Boston 177,812; now there are 362,535. St. Louis has only increased 40,000 during the last ten years, which is in marked contrast to the tremendous bound of Chicago. San Francisco bus done very well, rising in the decade from 149,473 to 233,956. Philadelphia shares the same advance as New York, gaining over one hundred and seventy thousand inhabitants in ten years. Washington indicates gratifying pro gress. Twenty years ago there were but 61,122 people in the capital ; now there are 147,307, placing it as a city above Louisville, Detroit and Newark. The greatest changes will be found in the West. Thus, Denver, which was unknown in 1860, and had only 4,759 in 1870, has now a population of 35,630 perhaps the most notable increase in the whole list of American cities. Oak land, Cal., San Francisco's chief suburb, which had but 10,500 ten years ago, has now 34,556. Omaha has jumped from 16.083 to 30,518, while Kansas City, 32,- 260 in 1870, is now 55,813. All the west ern cities, without exception, show a iaree percentage of gain. The same holds true in a smaller degree ot tne manufacturing towns like Paterson, N. J., Lowell, and Fall River, Mass. We have also old-fashioned, quiet places like Hartford, which has only advanced 5,000 in ten years. Camden feels the influence of Philadelohia bv an increase of 21,000 in ten years, being now a thriving city of 41.658, making as rapid an advance as St. Paul. The southwest ern towns do not snow good results. Atlanta is the only city of note in which marked progress is visible, rising from 21.789 to 34.398. Memphis has ialien away, having been 40,226 in 1870, and now is 33,393. Charleston has gained about a thousand in ten years, and only 9,000 in twenty years. Savannah is al most at a standstill, having 28,235 in 1870 and only 30,681 to-day. Mobile has fallen away from 32,034 in 1870 to 31, 205. Richmond has gained a consider able addition, advancing from 51,038 to 63,803. The tides of growth run to ward the West and the manufacturing centres. The Famens Rose Tree'.

The New York Herald publishes an article giving the statistics of the mili tary resources of the five great military g)wersj0f Continental Europe France, ermany Russia, Austro-Hungary and ltaiy ana exiiiDiting- tne nnanciai- as pect of the maintenance of the colossal standing- armies of these respective countries. The details were denvea from official quarters,, nnd the task of compiliation -was performed by skilled ana experienced omcers or uie rnusu Army. .The. figures may therefore be set down as reliable.' . It is shown that with 'an aggregate population of 238.000.000 the, standing armies offthese Powers on a peace foot ing number 2,000,000. men, which on a war basis are swollen to more than 7,000,000. In a sentence, Europe is a vast standing camp, for the above ng- ures by no means exhaust the number of citizens liable to military duty. At the discretion of those in authority class after class of reserves can be call ed out, until the maximum force that the five Powers can arm and embody reaches the stupendous total of 14,000,- 000 men approximately 6 per cent, of their entire population. The cost or the maintenance 01 tnese vast armies, in money alone, is, of course, enormous : but the indirect cost of their support, owing to the with drawal of so great a body of men from their legitimate avocations, is appall ing. Take Germany as an example, quoting from the Herald: -Jier army on its nominal peace root ing numbers 430,000 men, It is no strained assumption to hold that each of these men would in civilian life earn $200 a yearfcwhicb sum, whether l bank ed or spent, would contribute te the in crease of the country's wealth. By withdrawing, then, these 430,000 from earing each this money, Germany an nually sacrifices on the altar of a stand ing army no less a sum than $S6,00Gv 000. This may be called the passive cost of the national luxury of a stand ing army. But to this passive cost must be added the 'active cost of the national expenditures in maintaining that army. Germany is one of. the most economical among the nations in the matter of military expenditure in proportion to the size of her army, yet her ordinary military ouagec amounts annually to $82,500," Russia spends on her army in time of peace over 28 per cent, of her total rev en ue, while the annual taxation of France for military purposes reaches $3.25 per capta. The statistics give the gross annual revenues of these five great military Powers at $1,328,000,000, and their ordi nary annual military expenditure at $391,000,000, affording an average of above 21 per cent, of gross revenue ex pended in maintaining armies. liut, starting as these hgures may appear, it is shown that, after all, ti e little army of the United States, of less than 25,000 men, is incomparably the costliest army in the world ; for while the annual cost 01 our regular army ;s round numbers about 40,000,000, Kna land maintains her regular army, of about 120,000 men exclusive of the In dian establishment, paid out of the In dian Treasury at an annual cost of about $70,000,000. and Germany main tains a standing army or 430,000 men and the machinery for promptly swell ing it to a million strong at an annual expenditure of only $42,500,000 more than it costs this Republic to keep un der arms 25,000 men. It is easy enough to offer plausible ex pianation ror tnis comparative excess of cost in the maintenance of our regu lar army, such as the vast area of coun try, the extensive frontier to be guard ed, continual Indian warfare, etc., but in view of the great expenditure that it is shown must be made to suppart large standing army, Americans may well be thankful that the Government under which they live is not dependent tor its continued existence upon mihta ry rorce. Jiut, in view or the superior management of foreign hnanciers, it might be well to consider their methods as applied to thedrill and maintenance of fighting men. A Great Land Suit. Courier-Journal. Dispatches from Austin, Texas, con firm the report that Gen. William Pres ton has won the great land suit of the "Texas Association," otherwise known as the "Mercer Colony Grant. This suit involves the right and title of the Association to 1,376 square miles, or nearly 900,000 acres of land in the State of Texas. The grant waa made by President Sam Houston in 1844 to the "Texas Association," the larger interest in which is owned by Gen. Preston, and the rest by various stockholders, many or tnem in louisviue. The claim is one both on a trust ere ated by the grant of Gen. Houston, and on a trust created Dy the articles of an nexation of Texas to the United States by which the State of Texas undertook to hold all of the unsold public lands of the State in trust for the satisfaction of the liabilities of the former republic the only one of those liabilities now re maining unsatisfied being that to the Texas Association. The fight which has been thus happi ly ended is one which the State of Texas should never have made, as the claim is one of the most undoubted in tegnty and merit, and it would nodoub have long ago been settled and satisfied had not certain officers of the State de termined to repudiate its solemn obli gation, erroneously supposing that, as a State cannot be sued, there was no way by which the claim could be enforced however just it might be. This is notable as being the largest land suit ever Known in this country and perhaps in tne world, and its sue cessrui issue is due in a great measure to the force, ability and character of Gen. Preston. A Street Car which Carries Its Track The Chicago Times gives a descrip tion of a street car which carries its own track, introduced in that city by a company which claims to have a capita. stock of $1,000,000, and whose object is to build one thousand of these cars and place them upon the streets of Chicago The car, which Is of the ordinary kind is mounted in the middle upon a truck which sits on four wheels, each about one toot in diameter. These wheels run around the inside of two steel tiers each ten feet in diameter, and which rest upon the ground, and are held only to the car Dy a set of wheel -clamps. The car is designed to hold fifty people, and tne owners ciaim tnat the more it car ries the easier it runs, It will be stop- Eed in tne usual manner, and two orses will be required to pull it. The owners say they intend putting the cars upon the principal streets of the city, and placing the cash fare at four cents and selling thirty rides for $1.
