The males are 26, SS1 in excess of the females. The white population number 1, 590, 462, of whom 59, 240 are of foreign birth, and 124, 304 others are the offspring of foreign parents. The

colored population numbered 268, 173 in 1890; of whom 268,071 are of African descent, a decrease since ISSo of 3,380. To what causes this decrease may rightfully be attributed, we have not the information to deter- mine. It may be of interest to note in comparison, that Massachusetts has a population of 2, 238,943, of whom 1,087,709 are males, and 1, 157, 234 are females ; an excess of 63, 525 females; 1,581,806 are native, and 657, - 137 are foreign born.
