Extraordinary as this may appear, the author seems to have proved it by figures and facts which cannot readily be answered, and which show to our minds that the United States is no longer, and was not even as long ago as 1850, an American country. Another writer, of opposite political views, testifies to the wonderful increase of the foreign element in the Northern States since 1850. For a single year, 1853, the aggregate immigration of the United States, by land and sea, was not short of half a million of souls. At that rate, there arrived in this country every year a sufficient number of persons to make a State embracing as large a white population as Maryland or Alabama, and, within a fraction, enough to make one having as large a white population as North Carolina or Georgia! Every two years, there would be enough to balance the white population of Virginia. Every six months, there would

United States (United States) (search for this): article 2
In 1790, the population of the United States, including whites and free negroes, was 3,231,930. The whole population in 1850, of whites and free colored persons, was 19,987,573. From an interesting treatise, published by a foreigner in Washington, the remarkable fact appears to be demonstrated, that, excluding immigration, the population of the United States, in 1850, would have been 7,555,423, instead of 19,987,573--a difference in population of 12,432,150.

Sheridan (search for this): article 3
It was said by some of Sheridan's troopers, in their late raid, that they did not care about taking Richmond; that Richmond, in fact, was a thing of very little consequence indeed; but that their object was to destroy the country, and thereby destroy General Lee's army. --When remonstrated with by families for taking their little household supplies, the answer was, that they meant to take them, so that they could not supply General Lee's army. For this, the people were plundered; for this, the mills were burned, as well as canals and railroads cut. They also expressed their astonishment at the amount of provisions they found in some parts of the interior. They had been told, they said, that we were in a state of starvation, but they found an abundance that they had not dreamed of. It needed not their declarations to inform us of their object. Richmond, they have discovered, is not the back bone of the rebellion. It is that army; that host of war-worn veterans who, for f
