MASSACHUSETTS, by the census of 1870, has a population of 1,457,351, of whom 1,104,032 are native born, and 353,319 foreign born; the colored persons and the Indians number only 13,189. The popula- tion of its cities (including those recently chartered) in 1870 was as follows :- Boston, 250,526 ; Worcester, 41,105 ; Lowell, 40,928 ; Cambridge, 39,634; Lawrence, 28,921; Charlestown, 28,323; Lynn, 28,233; Fall River, 26,766 ; Springfield, $26,703 ; Salem, 24,117; New Bedford, 21,320 ; Taunton, 18,629 ; Chelsea, 18,547; Gloucester, 15,- 389; Somerville, 14,685; Newburyport, 12,595; Haverhill, 12,092; Fitchburg, 11,- 260; Holyoke, 10,733. In 1865 the census showed the population of Massachusetts to be 1,267,031 ; voters, 246,182
The valuation of this State, by the census of 1870, is $1,684,000,000, against $1,009,- 709,652 in 1865. The actual wealth of our people is, however, much greater. Allow- ing for undervaluation of property by town assessors, and for that exempt from
taxation and so not reported, and the grand total niust be over twenty-two hundred mil- lions, giving as the average for each man, woman and child in the State, over $1,500,- larger, probably, than in any community of equal area in the world. And nowhere else, perhaps, is it so largely distributed to all. We have but few paupers, and most of those come from abroad.
