! lt is estimated bv careful observers that
the population of the United Htiitcs will
exceed fiO,000,00.) at the time ihe next
-census shall be taken, a little uiorc than
Ivro years hence. This, in point of num
bers, far exceeds that of any European
nution, with the single exception of
Russia, whose population in Europe alone
is perhaps greater than that of the 1. nited
States by about 10,000,000. Germany
contains something over 45,000,000,
France less than 40,000,000, Great
Britain and Ireland 35,000,080, and Italy
under 30,000,000. In all these European
countries, with the exception of Russia,
tbe increase iu population from year to
year, or even from decade to de a'le, is
so slight as to be almost imperceptible.
On the other hand, the growth in the
population of the United States since the
war of the revolution is without a
parallel. Our territorial limits have been
extended until they embrace more than
double the area we could legitimately
claim when the first treaty of peace with
Great Britain was ratified, but meanwhile
our population has increased twenty-lold.
If (he present rate of increase shall con
tinue, the beginning of the "ex', century
will find not less than 75,000,000 inhabi
tants in this country.

A TRINITY.

With heart of gold and petals white,
That blooms from morn until the night,
And wakes from day to day.
Each year, from spring till winter's gloom,
Tben only sleeps again to bloom

Fair Hope is like the cedar treo;

Though lonely are the winter hour
Of immortality.

Nor night nor death its strong.h appall.

Sweet Faith, Fair Hope within it dwell
All flowers of its beauties tell—

A GREAT MUTINY. j
Many years ago, before the English
gave; up Tasmania as. 4 u penal colony 1
was a cabin boy on the Australian packet
Queen Hess. In those (lavs every packet
to Australia Was crowded with emigrants
soldiers and {idventurers,.ami on this oe
casioii our passenger list had a o-reat
many of fhe latter. There seemed to be
a regular hegira of bad men from dale’ 1 iver
pool and London about (hat and
Til venture to sav we had fifty aboard
who had no respect for the laws of the
land or the high seas.
I was thirteen years old the day we
left Liverpool, and I had already made
one voyage to Australia and return with
three Captain Flemming. While we carried
cabin boys, I was cn»a<*ed to wait
on the Captain alone, lfc tea's very kind
and fatlierly to me from the first dav 1
set foot on his ship, and 1 had a much
pleasanter boy lot than usually falls to the
who takes lo the sea for a living. I
don't say that 1 was anv keener than*the
average boy of mv but somehow
when 1 caiiic to look over our crowd ns
we were about ready to sail 1 saw trouble
ahead. Two or three trifliuo-incidents
bellied me lo make up mv mind to this
Most of the sailors who'had been the
othev voyage had reshipped for this one.
There was one whom 1 positively hated
-a ihe bill, night evil-eyed,hang-dog before fellow-an cl
on doing : errand for the sailing, „« 1 was
an first mate, Mr.
Cotton, at a public house near the dock,
I saw this sailor and two evil-looking
landsmen in close conversation over tlieir
ale. It so happened that I stood near
them while waiting, and 1 heard one of
the men address the sailor with:
“Now. is
“Yes.”
“If they come aboard wc are 10 help
’em take the ship.”
“YVe are.”
“The women and children and such
others as don’t care to join us are to be
landed somewhere, and then for a free
aiifl-easy life,"
“That’s tbe talk, mate,” exclaimed
Bill.
“And it is to be an even divide ot
cash all around ?” put in the second lands
man.
“It is. Wc shall have to have officers,
of course but one man will be as <>ood as
another, and it shall be share and .share
alike.”
“And liow nianv mcn have you
sounded?” *
Bill spread his great, hairy hand on
the table and counted off on his fingers.
“There's .lack—and Tom—amt Hob
bins—ami Whistler - ami -but I guess
that's all. It’s too early yet. When you
want a man for desperate work don't
give him too long ! to think called of it.” ami
At this point was away,
when I returned to the sliipl and
ly to the Captain’s cabin Captains, related all 1
bad heard. Some sea in iheir
arrogance and conceit, would have
covered m<- with contempt. attentively Captain
Hemming listened to n«- he un
til I had finished, and then sent me to
call Mr. Colton ami Mi. -lohnson, the
latter being the second mate. 1 bad to
repeat the conversation for their benefit.
Air. Cotton didn’t take much stock in
my story. He was one of those opinion
ated men who never lake kindly to any
thing coming second hand. Mr. Hob
inson believed I had overheard all I said.
but scouted the idea that there was any
plan against the ship. The v were or
dered to keep Iheir eyes open in every
d j rectlon from the hour we sailed, and
when they had gone the Captain turned
tome with:
“Now. Albert, I am satisfied in my
own min(() f|om th , r of S0II ,. of
the passengers going out with u>, that a
plot of some sort is hatching. Von can

around them like a coast fever. Wc had

of the thirteenth day that the men were
sitting he on iheir chests, and I pretended
to asleep on a bundle of stuff near
them, that they were joined by three
oilier men. The live were quite by
themselves, and they had no sooner come
together than Bill said:
