THE NEW CENSUS LAW.

The new census bill is published. 1t author
ICES the Secretary of the Interior, as soon as the
census is complete, 10 ascertain the aggregate
representative population of the several States,
and divide the aggregate by the number Of two
hundred and thirty three; and the product of
such division, rejecting any fraction Of unit, is
declared to be ratio or rule of apportionment
Of representatives in Congress The feature in
the last apportionment act, which provided
where fraction in any State exceeds one-half
of the ratio, an additional member should be al
lowed, is stricken out from the new law.
The compensation allowed to the U. S. Mar
shals for their service in executing the act, is,
in States where the population exceeds one mill

There seems no reason to believe the rumor that
Sacramento City has been burned. Judge O. c.

sistance. But the Tribune adds

IMPORTANT TO LAND OWNERS.

We call the attention of the public to the TACT
that in short time, the sale OF delinquent lands
will take place throughout the State. The law
directs these sales to occur every five years, and
the present is the year of sale. List of delin-
quent tracts are required to be posted at the sew
eral court-houses some time before the day OF
sale, but there are many small land-holders who
rarely visit their county seat, exceptwhen some
exciting election is in progress, or important
business demands their attendance. tmay not
be generally known, that the failure to pay the
tag of single year subjects this species of prop
erty to the risk Of sale. Very frequently the
Sheriff fails to call upon the land owner living
in some remote part of the county, to callect the
few cents of annual tax due upon the little spot
which, with constant labor, scarcely yields
support to himself and family. The man is so
occupied by the cares incident to his humble
position, that the fact soon escapes him, and his
ignorance in this way often endangers his rights.
The Sheriff returns the land as delinquent, and
the auditor is bound 10 send it out, at the proper
time, for sale. The land is generally bought
by some hanger-on of these sales, for the mere
tax. The owner still remains in ignorance Of
this lien upon his property-the period allowed
for its redemption 1.-TWO years) passes by, and
provided the purchaser has complied with the
requirements OF the law, and there are no IT,
regularities upon the face Of the proceedings,
the title becomes vested in him. We have
known instances where poor mans tract of
land, worth $500, has been sold for one or two
dollars, and his title irrevocably lost. The law
which authorises these sales is a disgrace TO our
statute book.
Prior to the day Of sale, every delinquent has
the privilege Of redeemng his land, either at
the Auditors Office Or by paying the Sheriff Of
the county where the land lies.
1t would be well for every land owner to in.
quire into the condition Of his property, and in
many instances he might perform an act of
kindness to friend or acquaintance whose land
was in danger When his land is once sold,
though the law allows certain period for re-
demption, he will find himself probably beset
with many difficulties in endeavoring to rescue
it from the hands of some greedy speculator.-
Richmond Wing.
70 The delinquent lands in Augusta are adj
vertised to be sold in front of the Court house
on the 18th Monday in October. Persons inter-
ested may save time and money by giving
prompt attention 10 this matter The lands, if
sold, are redeemable at any time within two
years from the day of sale

HAYNAu's DEPARTURE FROM EfGLAND-The
London Daily News, of the 18th, has a full and
corrected account Of tho drubbing given to the
Butcher Haynau, by the London brewers. At
ter he had found safety in the public house OF
Mr.. Benfeld, where he frs! crammed himself
away in a dust bin, from whence he was drag
ged by the hair and moustache, but finally ss~'
GREETED in bed room, by the lady OF the house,
he made his final escape as follows;
GA strong body Of the police soon arrived,
and their appearance at once quelled the fury OF
the populace The inspector, on entering the
bed in pitiable condition He was much ex-
hausted, and in his own language complained
severely OF the pain he endured from the inju-
rles inflicted upon him.
nHavng paraken of some slight refreshments,
the inspector assured him, through the interpre-
ter that he might consider himself perfectly safe
under his care, as he had body of officers
down below to protect him. 1t was some time
however, ere he could be induced TO believe that
he was free from further violence. His torn
garments having been temporarily repaired by
the interpreter, and Mr.. Benteld having lent
him hat, he ventured to make for the Thames
Police gallary that was lying at the foot Of the
stairs fronting the George Getting safely into
the boat it was rowed to Waterloo bridge. a
Gao was then procured, and the exhausted Mar
shall was conveyed to Morley's Hotel, Chariug
Cross. 1t should be mentioned, however, THAI
when he took his departure from Bankside, he
was greeted with yels, and his hat was thlown
into the River after him.
"During the remainder of the day the Gene
raj was confined to his bed al his hotel. On
Friday he was still suffering from the injuries he
had sustained He was visited by several OF the
Austrian mobiles and others resident in London
and in order to avoid the recurrence of a similar
display of feeling, arrangements were made for
his quitting England, and in the course OF Fri
day night, we are informed, he took his leave.
1.-THE George, where Haynau took refuge, has
been ever since an attraction to the curious Ii
has been daily visited by crowds of exile Hunga-
rians, the dust hole and bedroom being objects
of much attraction to the curious. Cheers are
repeatedly given by the visitors for the draymen
and coal-heavers Mr. Benfield, to whom Hay
nau was largely indebted for his safety, called
on Morley's and sent in his card, but the Mar
shall refused to receive him.

found poetical vent, and verses entitled "The

Haynau i'm London.

On Wednesday, General Haynau, the Aus
trian Butcher, received slight indication of the
regard which the English people entertained for
him. He arrived at London on Monday, and
on Wednesday, having previously received
letter of Introduction from Baron Rothschild, in
which the Baron styles Haynau his peculiar
friend, he went to visit the brewery of Messrs.
Barclay; Perkins g. Co. Haynau was accompa-
MED by his aid-de-camp and his Interpreter.
According 10 the regular practice of visitors, they
were requested 10 sign their names in book in
the Office, after which they crossed the yard
with one of the clerks. On inspecting the visi-
ter's book the clerk discovered that one Of the
visitors was no other than Marshal Haynau, the
late commander Of the Austrian forces during
the Hungarian War. 1t became known all
over the brewery in less than two minutes, and
before the General and his companions had
crossed the yard, nearly all the laborers and
ing out "Down with the Austrian Butcher" and
other epithets of an alarming nature to the
Marshal.
The Marshal finding how matters Stood and
that he was likely to get warm reception from
the sturdy brewers, thought prudence the better
part of valor, and began to beat retreat but
this was not so easily done. The attack was
commenced by dropping a truss of straw upon
his head, after which grain and missiles of eve
ry KIND were Ireely bestowed apoH MIN. Inc
men next struck his hat over his eyes, and HIS
tied him from all directions; his clothes were
torn off his back. The Marshals companions
we're treated with equal violence. The party
finally succeeded in reaching the entrance gate,
but no sooner had they made their exit than
crowd of coal beavers, who waited upon his
highness seized upon him; was struck with
every available missile, and even dragged, a.
long by his moustache, which afforded ample
facilities from its excessive length. Still bat
ting with his assailants he ran in frantic man
ner along the Bankside, until he came to the
George public house, where he ran up stairs
and concealed himself in closet. The furious
mob rushed in after him, threatening to do for
the Austrian Butcher, what he did to the poor
Hungarians, but fortunately for him, they did
not succeed in finding his retreat. Ultimately
the police came to his rescue, and he was re-
moved in a police barge to the other end of the
city. This assault has been the subject of COM
ment in nearly all the provincial papers, and
whilst the majority agree in condemning the
act, still they frankly admit, that the presence
Of SO disreputable character in Eng land was q
provocaton great enough to excuse greater
outrage.
