POPULATION OF THE CITY OF CHICAGO, ACCORDING TO THE CENSUS


Taken by J. W. NORRIS, August 1st, 1843, under the authority of the Common Council; together with a comparison of this with the census of former periods.


REMARKS .- The following census was taken with great care and accurary. all persons not permanently residing in the City being. in every instance. excluded. The population of the place might have been made much larger than it appears to be, by the result of this census. undoubtedly 8,500, by including a class of transitory persons which it is customary to compute as a part of the popula- tion of cities ; but it was thought advisable to base the present census upon a permanent foundation; the census of subsequent periods will then show the actual amount of increase. By transitory per- sons, are to be understood persons not having a permanent resi- dence in either of the wards of the City, and persons living here but absent for the time being-by natives of other countries. those actually born abroad, and not their descendants, who are included


76


STATISTICS OF CHICAGO.


among the natives of this country. It is proper to remark, that a great increase of population has taken place since the date of this census. The present population exceeds 8000.

PORT OF CHICAGO. SETH JOHNSON, DEPUTY COLLECTOR AND INSPECTOR. Revenue Office, Clark street, opposite Saloon. The following tabular statements will exhibit, with an approach to


71


STATISTICS OF CHICAGO.


accuracy, the amount and value of the trade of Chicago, to the close of the present year, 1843. A very serious difficulty has existed, heretofore, in ascertaining the actual amount of exports and imports of the place, especially the exports, owing to the fact, that a great many vessels arrive and depart, during the season of navigation, without being reported at the Custom House, or leaving any evi- dence of the character and amount of their cargoes. The existence of this difficulty was more particularly set forth in a memorial of the Common Council to Congress, in the year 1840, in which they allow a deduction of one-third from the amount known, to be added. for the amount unknown. It has been thought advisable, in the follow - ing statement, to give only the actual amount, as ascertained from record in the revenue office, it being understood, from the above ex- planation, that the estimate is considerably below the true amount :

A number of vessels left port this year, without being reported.


During the present season, 14,856 barrels of beef have been packed at the several packing houses in the City ; only a small por- tion of this has been exported. The quantity of hides and tallow is not known, but will bear a proportion to the quantity of beef. An amount of pork will be put up here the coming winter, greatly ex- ceeding any former season. No statement in regard to this depart- ment, can be made in this connection, as the business is but just commencing.
