The overseers of the parish of Sculcoate•, near
have finished taking an account of the population of that
parish. IVe give it below, contrasted with the state-
ment when before taken in 1901 and I'4ll, :
Inh. Houses. Families. Males. Females. Total.

1901 912 1338 2331 3104 5439
1811 1749 2073 3760 4895 9646
1921 1953 2557 4502 5957 10.449
In 1801 there were 8 uninhabited houses ; in 1811,97 ;
in Is2l, 171. Families employed in agriculture in 1801
not returned; in 1811, 2; in 1821, 10. Ditto chiefly in
trade and manufactures, 1t 11, 1631 •, in 18'21, 11.193.
Ditto not comprised in these classes, 1911, 4.10; in 1821,
551.—(Ha1l Rockingham.)
The census of Newcastle and Gateshead and of the
immediate dependencies is now, we believe, finished;
but as the returns of some parishes and townships are
yet wanting, we are unable to give the total amount;
and in the meantime shall subjoin the returns of such
parishes and wards as have reached no. From all the
isformities we can obtain, there would appear to be a
wasillikrable increase of inhabitants as compared
wit tire teems of 1911. Part of this increase is pro-
bably owing to the very opposite circumstances under
which the two census were takes.
The year 1811 was a time of war • when, beside other
causes of inaccuracies, many people either inisundei•
stood the Illeilltlrt, or from gronnilless alarms of taxa.
tion, and military service, were not reconciled to beinr
numbered. The public now have manifested in every
instance the utmost readiness to afford the information
required. It is singular enough that in all the low and
most thickly-peopled parts of Gateshead, niu a single in•
flividnal was found confined to bed. The following arc
the returns which we have received :

So that the population has increased by the whole of st.
Andrew's parish. But Gateshead, we understan.i,
hits the greatest increase, being now about 13,0011, whilst
it was only 5.7 in INI I. As far as we can aseurtain.
the population of Newcastle and Gateshead, with tile im-
mediate dependencies of Ilvker and Westgate ton n-
ships, will not be less than 52,000 inhabitants.—(Ne
castle Chronicle.)
In the list of the Population now takinr, in thig city.
one house, in Mary-street, w.ts found to contain no
than ninrty inhabitants.—(Limerick Paper.)
A respectable young lady of Newark pai.l the miti-
gated penalty of 2/. before the Magistrates of that bo-
rough, for giving evasive answers to the over.rrrs.
taking down the population on the 26th ult., in compli-
ance with a late Act of Parliament.
