The Orphan Asylum.
from the earth, who are about winding up their affairs in time, may we not ask, by the affection with which, in that solemn hour, they seck to establish a home for their own children, that they would not forget those who have no parents to love and remember them."
The Asylum is now under the matronship of Mrs. Heely, its founder, a truc-hearted, noble and devoted friend of the poor orphan-a lady whose whole mind seems to be engrossed in the welfare of this helpless and destitute class. She is a mother to over one hundred children of both sexes, and they love, honor, obey and respect her with that filial regard, which we might well look for from those, whose interests she has so long studied Her reward will not be of this earth-she will receive a brighter and better one in the world to come.
Her assistant, Miss Ramsay, is one of the most intelli- gent young ladies that ever graduated from the Female Academy in this city. She is an orphan and was reared in the Asylum, until she arrived at a suitable age, when she declared her wish to become a teacher in the institu- tion. With this view she was sent to the Academy, and the rapid progress which she made, evinced talents of a very high order. She graduated with honor to herself, and with the best wishes of her associates. Situations. more inviting to some, perhaps, were open to her acceptance. With a spirit worthy of all praise, she refused them; and accepted the position she now holds in the Asylum. Inti- mately acquainted with the wants of the orphan, she ministers to their cares with a mother's affection. In return, she is fairly idolized by the inmates, and it is truly affecting to witness their manifestations of love for her, whenever and wherever they come in contact.
It would afford us the greatest pleasure to have devoted more time and space to the consideration of this subject; but we have already occupied so much of both. that, were it not for the interest which clings to the associations connected with the Asylum, we should entertain some fears of being tedious. We have endeavored to render the sketch, however, as entertaining as possible, and if we shall have succeeded in arousing the sympathiies of the

The Lumber Trade in Albany.
THE LUMBER TRADE IN ALBANY.
From the Albany Evening Journal, Jan. 1851.
An English writer in speaking of the various lumber marts in the world, sets down Albany as one of the most important, if not the largest on the globe. Of the truth of this remark we have no means at hand to substantiate the assertion, but that a very large business has been done here in lumber every year since 1836 no one who is con- versant with the trade will deny. A considerable amount of the lumber sold here has been brought down the Cham- plain canal, and entered the Hudson river at West Troy, from whence it is brought down the river in canal boats by means of small steam tugs which ply between this city and Troy during the season of canal navigation. Nor is lumber the only article which reaches us in that way. Several of the Oswego and Buffalo lines of canal boats, which have run directly from here to those cities, have ascended and descended the canal at West Troy, so that in no way can an accurate statement be made of the busi- ness of this place, except by a resort to the books of the shipping and receiving houses in this city. The six mile tolls, besides other expenses in the way of towing, is no small item to forwarders, who are compelled by ruinous competition to take property frequently at about, or only a fraction over, canal tolls.
The best and most costly lumber sold in this market is from the neighborhood of the Genesee Valley and Che- mung canals.
We have prepared the subjoined tables, giving the year- ly receipts at tide-water, of boards and scantling, timber, shingles and staves, and their estimated value for the year named. In submitting these tables we do not pre- tend to assert that this amount of property has been sold here. We are willing to yield a suitable proportion to our friends up the river; but to give them all that a writer in Hunt's Magazine claimed for them, viz : all that entered
222

the Hudson at West Troy, is more than any forwarding merchant would venture to claim. What we do maintain belongs justly to Albany, is the entire receipts of lumber at this place, and at least a third if not a half of that com- ing into the Hudson at West Troy. The figures for the year just closed show that more than one half the entire receipts of boards, &c., at tide-water, came to this city by the Erie, while the exhibit of staves show that three- fourths of the entire receipts were taken in at this place.

In glancing over the above figures, which exhibit the trade for the past 15 years, we find that the smallest re- ceipt of boards &c., was in 1840, and the largest in 1850: and that compared with the former dates, the business has increased more than three-fold. The receipts of timber were the lightest in 1842 and heaviest in 1850.

The largest receipt of shingles was in 1848, and the smallest in 1836. The receipts of staves were the smallest in 1836 and the largest in 1850. Since 1847 there is appa- rently a great falling off in their estimated valuation; for notwithstanding the receipts of the following year were much larger than that named, their estimated value is set down at a sum less by more than one-half the valuation of 1847. It appears, however, that with the exception of '46 and '47 their valuation has been pretty uniform ; and pro- bably this apparent discrepancy can be easily explained by those who were then engaged in the trade.

From the foregoing it will be seen that for a period of twelve years there was a steady, healthy increase of busi- ness on the pier. In 1847 there was a large increase. This, it will be remembered, was an extraordinary season, there was a large export demand for breadstuffs, and every thing that could float, either on the river or canal, was brought into requisition, and an immense business was done. A season such as that rarely occurs oftener than once in twenty years.

Statistics of Intemperance.
STATISTICS OF INTEMPERANCE.
At a meeting of the Albany City Temperance Society, the following statistics were reported as the result of the investigations of a committee of the Rechabites, made in August, 1851.
Among the statistics in regard to the number of grog shops in the different wards, we find the following :

Thus it will be seen that there are 744 groggeries in this city, where liquor is dealt out by the glass, being one groggery to about every 67 persons, including men, women and children. Of this number there are about 426 licensed, and not one-tenth of these, by the law, are qualified to sell liquor, for the want of the requisite character in commun- ity. It was also shown that there are some 320 who sell without the necessary license.
There are in the city seven breweries, which during the past year have manufactured 167,000 bbls. of beer, and under the increased demand, it is estimated that 100,000 bbls. more will be manufactured annually.
During the year 1850 there were 498 persons committed to the penitentiary, of which number 451 acknowledged themselves to have been intemperate, and 45 claimed to have been moderate drinkers. Since Mr. Pillsbury has had charge of that institution but two total abstinence

men had been committed. During the last year there had been twenty-two cases of delirium tremens there, two of which resulted fatally.
From the chief of police it was ascertained that since the organization of the new police system, up to Sept. 21 (3 months and 5 days) 1707 arrests had been made for various offences. Of this number, on the authority of the chief, at least three-fourths of the persons arrested were of intemperate habits.
From the keeper of the jail it was ascertained that dur- ing the year 1850, there were committed to jail, 2193. From Jan. 1, 1851, to Sept. 20, 8 months and 20 days, 2,143-showing an increase of about 25 per cent for the present year. At least 19 out of every 20 were of intem- perate habits.
POPULATION AT DIFFERENT PERIODS.
The population of Albany county in 1689 was 2,016; in 1698, 1,496. The cause of this diminution was the Indian war. During that war 557 "Christians," depart- ed from the city and county of Albany. In 1703 the population of Albany county was 2,273; in 1723, 6,501; of whom 808 were slaves, either African or Indian. In 1731, 8,573; in 1737, 10,681; in 1746 the census of the county could not be taken "on account of the enemy." In 1749 it was 10,634-another decrease in 12 years by reason of the war. In 1756 the population of Albany county was 17,424, of whom 2,619 were blacks. In 1771, it was 42,706, of whom 3,877 were blacks. The county of Albany, previous to the Revolution, extended from Dutchess to the Vermont line east of the Hudson, and to the Canada line west of lake Champlain; and westward to Tryon county, or to what is now the east line of Mont- gomery county.

INSCRIPTIONS
IN THE
PRESBYTERIAN BURIAL GROUND.
Since the establishment of the Rural Cemetery on the Watervliet turnpike, a great many monuments with the tenants of the graves whose memory they preserved, have disappeared from the burial grounds on State street. The following inscriptions were copied from the grave stones in the Presbyterian burial ground, before any removals had been made, and embrace nearly all the adults whose monuments were to be found there. They were con- tributed to this work principally by Mr. F. S. PEASE.

Cornelia Tappen Clinton, daughter of Gen. George Clinton, and wife of Edward C. Genet, 23 March, 1810, aged 34.
Under this humble Stone is Interred the Remains of CORNELIA TAPPEN CLINTON, wife of EDWARD C. GENET, Late Adjutant General and Minister Plenipotentiary from the French Republic to the United States of America; and Daughter of General George Clinton,
Vice President of the United States. She was born at Bloominghope, near New Windsor, the 29th June, 1774, and died of consumption,
in the town of Greenbush, the 23d of March, 1810, in the 35th year of her age.
Honest, faithful and sincere, she cheerfully retired with the man who had won her hand, from the agitated scene of the world, to the shades of a peaceful solitude, which she had embellished during sixteen years by all the charms of a lively. enlightened and cultivated mind, and of a heart devoted to Virtue. Her last moments, sweetened by the blessings of Faith, have been, like her life, an example of Fortitude and true Christian Philosophy.
