I nfcrf far auks over the road, in the aacent from the Sar dinian side, and candidly obaarvei its wt- struction. The enginearing difficulties were immense, but they have been over come with such skill that the ascent is u- nifonn and easy in every part (tension ally a level place is left to afford relief to horses from the weatisomeness of a steady pull. I noticed that the marks of the drill used in blasting were nearly obliterated, thc effect of long continued exposure to severe .storms, and the character of die rock, which is a soft limestone. It may be, if thc history of the road shall ever be last, that future antiquarians may contend from the obliteration of all signs of blasting, that at least no great difficulties were en countered in its construction, even if they do not insist that it was formed on a neu tral bed. One is struck with wonder that such a great work, over high mountains, should have been formed and finished on a line exceeding fifty miles, so completely that it exceeds in excellence any road I know ofin the United States, whether pub lic or private, and long or short It is kept in high order, and is descended on a brisk trot, with entire safety. It seemed most appropriate, as this great road was thc work of the elder Napoleon, that the representative of liis name should have distinguished himself by using it for the march of a great army aimed at the same power which Napoleon successfully encountered soon after crossing the Swiss Alps. Free Vegroes. Writing on this subject thc New York Journal of Commerce says: “It is a fact, according to the Census Compendium taken by “Wilberforce,” that the colored population of New Eng land and New York was 72,088 in 1840, and only 72,090 in 1850. Showing a de crease in ten years of 598. It is a fact that in all thc free States and Territories, taken together, thc colored population in the same ten years increased from 171, 857 to 19G,580 or 14.38 per cent; and that in all the slaveholding States the free col ored population only increased about 11 percent It is a fact within the same pe riod the slave population of thc United States increased from 2,487,445 to 3,204, 313 or 28.82 ptr cent (just double the ra tio of the free States). It is a fact that the whole population of the United States in- c.eased from 14,195,695 to 19,553,068, or 37. per cent It is a fact that an aggregate of less than 400,000 slaves imported into tbe United States since the first settlement of the country (see Census Compendium, pp. 83-4), hare increased to 3,638,808, in cluding those now free. In other words, there are nine colored now, for every one imported. It is a fact (see Carey on the slave trade, and Census Compendium, pp. 83-4), that 700,300 negroes imported into Jamaica prior to 1817, had diminished to less than half that number m 1888, inclu ding free colored persons; and that of one million seven hundred thousand negroes imported into the whole British West In dies in thc course of years, only 600,000 remained to be emancipated in 1883,— Add for free colored persons 100,000, and wc have a total of 700,000 survivors, from 44 1 am ready—fire!” shouted the gam bler in tones as murderous as death.
