The management of The Post is making an earnest effort for the prompt deliver >’ of the paper to every subscriber. Anyone who fails to get his paper, will confer a favor by re porting the fact to the business office, 114 Richmond street. to Advertisers. All contract advertisers will please arrange to have the copy for any changes or for new advertisements, sent to the business ollicc of The Post the day before the change is t> be made. 'J he management will esteem it a special favor if this re quest is complied with.' The census gives the state of Ver rnont a population less than that of n city of respectable size. Senators Morrill and Edmonds, however, will not retire from the senate for this reason. There are many in this city who will learn with sincere regret of the death of Mr. R. 11. Brumby, formerly connected with the press of this citv. Mr. Brumby has recently been en gaged as the managing editor of the Americus Times, and has been pub lishing one of the most attractive papers in the state.

The cities have grown enor lously, but it has been at the ex me of the country. Tne reason this is to be found in the trend legislation in this country, which s discriminated against the agri dtural class, and has rendered that (jion unprofitable.

The city is the nerve center of onr civilization. It is also the storm center. The fact, therefore, that the census shows that the cities of this country aic growing much more rap idly than the whole population, is J full of significance. In 1790 only ‘ o.ie thirteenth of the population le i sided in cities of over 8,000 inhabi tants. The ratio has steadily In creased at each census, until in 1880. ■ early one fourth of the entire popu I lation found their homes in tiie cities. ' How much this proportion is in- | creased by the present census is not | yet known, but the indications are, j I that under the influence of unjust | legislation, the city lias become a place of refuge to an ever increasing proportion of the entire population. The city has become a serious men acc to our civilization. It Las apc culiar attraction for our unassimila ■ i ted emigrant population, whom the i debauching influence of municipal j politics feeds upon and grows with , its growth. Il is the city where . wealth is massed, and where are the, ( tangible evidences of it piled many stories high. There the sway of Mammon is widest, and his worship ’ most constant and eager. There the congestion of wealth is the severest, ■ and Dives and Lazarus are brought face to face evi ry day. The poor of I a city of 8000 inhabitants arc well off > compared with many in New York; I aid there are few such dephts of ■ poverty to be found in New York as abound in London. Socialism not only centers in the city, but is almost confined to it,and the mateiials of its growth are mul tiplied with the growth of the city. There is heaped the. social dynamite; there lawless and desperate men of all nations congregate; men who upon any pretext are toady to resort to riot for the purpose of destruc tion and plunder. Under such con , ditions, smoulder the volcanic tires of deep discontent. It is commonly said in Europe,and sometimes acknowledged here, that , the government of large cities in the United States is a failure. In all of the great American cities, there is to day as clearly defined a ruling class as exists in the most aristoera tic countries in the world. Its mem bers curry wards in their pockets make up slates for nominating con ventious, distribute oilices as they bargain together, and although they toil not, neither do they spur, yet they are clothed in line linen and ■ fare sumptuously everyday. It has | actually come to the pass that hold ing a municipal office in a large city almost impeaches the character of a man. Known integrity and compe < teucy hopelessly incapacitate a man for any office in the gill of the city rabble. As a rule our largest cities a;e the worst governed. It is natural, therefore, t > infer that, as our cities ! glow larger and more dangerous, the government will become more corrupt, and control will p iss mo • | completely into the hands of those who themselves most need to be con trolled. The only remedy which is suggested for this cougestjou of po| - illation is to so shape legislation as to render the conditions of life easier to i. rural population, The adjust ment of this question will remain one of the vexed social problems to tax , the powers of patriotism and states manship. The members of the president s , inmily will have the opportunity of making a good deal of money, if they continue to trade upon the oppor ' tunities of the presidential oilice Ln persuing such a course, the liar risons are not exactly .dishonest, but ' one of the safeguards of integrity which custom Las thrown aronud the presidential office is discarded, when the position is used, though indi i rectly, for bettering the pecuniary fortunes of the incumbent. Hai t i son would merit greater respect, if be retired poor, and devoted himself to the poultry industry, as Hayes has dome, rather than attempt to . grow rich by an unbecoming, al . though indirect use. of his position. Such charges have, heretofore, not ' been brought agaiust the executive ' of this country. Let us hope that the day is far distant, when it can be said, that any man. to whatever party he may behmg. who occupies the executive chair of this great na tion. is personally corrupt. Yet with Hamlet, we may exclaim: •‘Thrift. | Horktio, thrift.” ( Alas! and who would have thought it?
