Mr. Sadler states the results of the four censuses as follows: --"There were, of white inhabitants, in the whole of the United States in 1790,3,093,111; in 1800,4,309,656; in 1810,5,862,093; and in 1820, 7,861,710.

In 1810, the slave trade had been but recently abolished; and there were in consequence many more male than female slaves, --a circumstance, of course, very unfavourable to procreation. Slaves are perpetually passing into the class of freemen; but no freem...
