The Seventh Census.

While lately in Washington, we looked
through the building devoted to the receP-
ton, digestion and arrangement of the re-
turns of the New Census. The whole Is
under the direction of JOSEPH q. G. KEN
NEpr, Esq. of Meadvile, Pa, SuPerintend-
ent of the Census, and reflects great credit
on his ability and industry. His blanks
were so planned and adjusted that they bring
the information required into much smaller
space than hitherto, while it is at the same
time more precise and lucid. In the first
place, these returns as they are collected
bv the deputy marshals and transmitted to
the office, contain the name of each human
being rcho has name in the United States
and their Territories, beginning with the
head of each household and proceeding till
the entire family is enumerated. Against
each person is set down his or her actual
age-not between 90 and 80 80 and 40
and so on, but the number of years he or
she had lived on the LIST of June, 1850.
The classification of decades of years is
properly a matter for the census office and
not for the marshals, Having every fami-
" set down in the returns with the name
and age, &c. of each individual composing
it, it is morally impossible that any consid-
cradle error should escape detection at the
hands of the revisers in Washington. Thus
if there shall appear in the returns OF Del
aware Co, N. Y, the name of John Stan
wood, aged %, laborer, born in England, as
member of the family of James StanwOod'
aged 81, born in England, while like John
Stanwood, aged %, laborer, bornin England
is enumerated among the family OF Charles
Grafton, farmer, born in Connecticut, 1t
would appear plain to the revisers that the
same John Stanwood had been counted
twice once as a member of his fathers
family and again in that of his employer
and that he should be deducted accordingly.
So with the complaints frequently made OF
careless and defective enumeration. If
Member of Congress or the leading citizens
of any County-say Gallia' Ohio-shouid
be moved to say, "Our County mas not
been thoroughly taken-we must have
more population than the Census gives
'us," Mr.. Kennedy's ready answer Is
"You can easily make due inquiry by pub
.lic advertisement or otherwise and if you
find any persons who were residents OF
your County on the lst day of June 1850
whose names do not appear on our returns
as now filed in this Office and ready for
inspection on reasonable demand, you
shall be well paid for detecting the omis-
sion and the returns corrected to CORES
pond with the facts" Of course, abso-
Int perfection in such task is unattaina
bic. so many of our people are on the wing
thousands afoat on the seas travelling
in foreign countries or hunting and trapping
in the plens of far-of mountains, who could
not properly be enumerated as residents of
any spot within the reach OF the Census
takers. Some were on their way to the

PARTICULARS AT CARTHAGENA.-We learn
from Captain Goodwin, of the brig .Montserat'
from Carthagena that on the morning of the 9TH
ofFeb. at 81 o'clock, that city was visited by a
tremendous shock of an earthquake which lasted
nine seconds. Had it continued two or three SCI
conds longer the whole city would have been in
ruins. There was considerable damage done
throughout the city; some two or three houses
were shaken down and several lives lost. The
city walls and the Cathedral suffered very much.
The following night the walls and public squares
were filled with people, in dread of a Sc
cOnd shock. but up to the 18th they had expe-
rienced no other. No city in that region felt the
shock so severely as Csrthagena.

"a Some badly uniformed telegraph agent sent
from this City to the Charleston Courier, a few
days since, dispatch announcing failures here
among the cotton dealers. This false information
was Immediately disseminated by telegraph at
the South, and caused great alalIp. The next
day the Charleston and Savannah Banks refused
to buy any bills on the North and telegraphed
their friends for list of the failures. Telegraph
agents should be careful how they give currency
to mere baseless rumOrs. They should exercise
more judgment than they usually do.

',Dt New ORLEANS RIoT-ExTRAcTs
FROM THE SPANISH PAPER.-Such Ian.
guage as the following, which we copy
from "'La UnioD," the Spanish paper
published at New Orleans, no doubt led
to the attack on the Office by the late
mob in that city:
Much is said about the stringency oi
the laws Of that island, but the restric-
tions bear only upon the bad; and the
good part of the population enjoys more
liberty now than it would, if the island
should be annexed TO the United States.
We, during our many years residence
on the island, enjoyed more liberty than
we ever did in New Orleans; for here,
there is no liberty of speech, one must
hurrah with the crowd, or give ofense
and expose ones self to all manner of
insult. Here, one must sing TO the
praise and glory Of the place in
which he is, or keep as silent as a
slave. In spite OF all the boast Of
liberty made here, it is very one
sided, existing in theory; and in all
parts we see exhibited all the intole-
rance of the Puritans, who fled from
persecution in Europe TO persecute
einAmerica.
= The Cubans are a polite people,
and in their manners are more re-
fined than the Americans, whose
awkwardneSs and grossness shock
them; and, as for those persons who
go about drinking places and roar out
abuse, they are considered as perfect
barbarians, something below the
Congo race. 1t happens too, often,
that Americans tell foreigners that
they are slaves, or say something Of
fensive in regard to their country,
without appearing TO consider that
j they are insulting those individuals; !
but the Americans are so sensitive
themselves that mere allusion in a |
favorable tone, to anything in anoth-
er country. sounds in the ear Of the
American as against similar object |
in his own country; therefore, peo |
pie Of dispositions and tastes so DIFF
ferent could never agree, and the
poor Cubans, being the weakest,
would 60 to the wall.
