The population of that portion of the State of Ohio known as the Miami country, is officially estimated at 455,071, being an increase of 43 per cent in ten years. The Cincinnati Chronicle remarks:-
The Miami Counties comprehend, in round numbers, 6,500 square miles, and contain about half a million of people! This is a density of 77 to a square mile, much more than that of the State of New York, which is about 56 to the square mile. This District will probably contain, in twenty-five years, a million of inhabitants, at which time (no extraordinary providence interposing), it will present the example of the most rapid and prosperous growth of any people on earth. Indeed, such is the fact now. For no part of the United States of equal extent, has reached half a million in sixty years.
