T "brimvary object of this grand enumers op is to arrange: the apportionment of representation in’ Congress and the E " College, but. it is also very propetly | _;., general o as to give valuable and fiegessary information in regard to commerce, manufactures, educational and religious imstitutions, and the gefieral regpurces and) progress of the country. Schedules are issued om which the following items are to be noted: . First—All the dwelling houses in the district, all the families, name of every i'nhabitrnt, age, gex, color, ‘trade, occupation, or profession of each male person over fifteen years, value ot real estate owned, place afx\birthoﬂ; ach inhabitant, marriages within the preceeding year, number of persons who have attended school, personsover twenty years of age who ‘can read' and (write, the deaf and dumb, blind, insane, idiotie, paupers and convicts. i i

The law provided as No. 2in the above list of] achegnles certain facts concerning the number of slaves and slave holders in the country. ‘lt is:one of the way marks of moral and soeial progress which dis tinguishes-1860 the initial year of the past decade, from 1870, the initial year of the present one, that not a slave holder nor a slave exists in all the land !

Let the business men of the country help the census takers all they can, so that the figures of the ®ensus reports may afford an adequate and truthful idea of the businesB and resoyrces of the country. Much depends gn haying competent, en crgetic and pastaking men to collect and return the facts of the census. The representation of a Stat€ is affected as the census may be well or ill taken. The reputation of cities is at sfake 'somewhat, as the'figures made show the progress or decline of’business and population. All can see how importact a fatter the taking of the census is, and how necessary it is to see that none but.capable men are employed in it.—Zoledo :Blade. ~ ' 5 The Ablest Krgumen,t. : * Under the above ‘}r‘aptibn the Détroit Free Pregs makes the following brief, but to the point, notice of the infamous speech of Morton upon the Gorgia bill. It is evident that the Indiana Senator is not unknown to fame, c#p‘ecially his ability to,conceal the truth. | -The Press says : ~ “Senator Mortos, of Indiana, is said to have made the mostable argument yet made upon the’ Georgia question. We presume -that is true; when we consider _upon_which side of the question he has spoken. He argued in favor of perpetuating the Legialatul% and State officers in Georgia by act of Congress, for two years longer than they were elected by the people. That man musﬁﬁ be able indeed who could make any ar%\;sment at all in favor of an outrage so gross and so wanton in ‘all its conceptions 'and bearings. But what was his “argument?” Wghy, that there had been in the State of Georgia® since 1868 three hundred and fifty-six murders and assaults, and that, therefore, the people ot ‘that State were not fit to elect their own rulers,. Could anything be more infamous? = Where would the State of Indiana stand if tried by the same rule? _Have there not been over three hundred and fifty-six murders and assaults in that State in nearly two Zears? Has apything occurred in Georgia half as infamous as . the lynching of the Renos? Senator Mor“ton has evinced ability in his speech, but it is an ability for concealing rather than telling the truth. There are few States wherein a less number than three hundred and fifty-slx murders and assaults have occurred during t‘hb,s time indicated, and certainly Indiana is not oneé of the exceptions. There may have been but one murder in all this list. Senator Morton is very careful not to indicate the number. Had the mumber, been large he would not have failed to have stated what it was.— He attempted to accomplish by implica tion what he,could not do'by direct assertion” ]

Decoration of Soldier’s Graves. r Preparations are being made to degorate the soldier’s graves, at this place, on Sunday; -the 29th inst. We love to see honor shown to our beloved dead, and we hope our citizens will tape part in the ceremonics en masse. Let no party strife or ‘bickering deter you from strewing flowers upon the sod that wraps the mouldering ashes of those hrave boys who gave up their lives for their country’s cause.— Stop not for religious proclivities, but remember while you place the wreath of affection over the lifeless breast; that he who sleeps beneath, the last sleeé), did not falter to defend your homes and firesides when the long roll “sounded his death knell” on the Sabbath day. Itisa duty we owe in common to those that yielded up the ghost in defence of their country ; and let us pay that debt with all honor due to the fallen hProes.—Lebqnon Pioneer;" Tae New York 7Times observes: “After all, when it comes to the supreme’ touch of genius in description, poets must pale their fires before the newspaper reporters. The Washington correspondent of the Bt. Louis Republican, speaking, in one of his letters, of ‘the beauty and elegance of Madame Katakazy,” wife of the Russian Minister, declares that ‘the pro- ~ tusion and color of her hair would lead one to look upon it as though it had been ~ Bpun by the nimble fingers of the easy - hours as they glided through bright June dayk, whose sunny rays of light had been calgﬁht in the meshes, and were content to ‘gono further’ Even Aléxander Smith },would bave been puzzled to outdo this.” TuERE is & paper published in Austin, Texas, which is, to printers, a literary curiosity.

For Inflammatory and Chronic' Rheumatism, and Gout, Dyspepsis, or Indiﬁestion. Bilious, Remittent, and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, the Vinegar Bitters have been most successful.— Such diseases are. caused by Vitiated Blood, which is generally produced by derangement of the digestive organs. : Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions or sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure and the health ot the system will follow. ¢ PIN, TAPE, and OTHER WORMS, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed.
