Population - According to the census taken in the year 1825, Cleveland contained only five hundred souls; in 1831, the population was not more than one thousand one hundred; in 1832, it amounted to one thousand five hundred; in 1833, to one thousand nine hundred; in January 1834, it was found to have increased to three thousand three hundred and thirty three; in Novenber 1834, it was four thousand two hundred and fifty; and in Aufust 1835, it was five thousand and eighty.

The number of inhabitants in the city of Cleveland at present exceeds nine thousand, and judging from the rapid increase of that number, and the flattering prospects of this infany city, we anticipate its being doubled in less than three years.
