SEVENTH cENsUs-PopULATIoN OF MISSOURI

LOUIS EEPUBL1cAN.
We are under many obligations to Captain TwIrcHELL,
United States Marshall for his poteness in making out for
transcript Of the aggregate population Of each of the coun-
ties Of this State as returned his office by the several de-
putty marshals The returns embraced in this table,
complete from the nneythree counties five other counties
reported complete aud others estimates, based
upon the last advces Of the assistant marsha The state
ment may therefore be received substantially Official We
have be abundany satisfied with the increase OF
population within the last years This increase has been
nearly three hundred thousand under adverse and e1aordi
nary circumstances, for the last ten years.
Perhaps may be well present the decenn increase
as ascer,aned by the United States census since lslo

The pubc who have paid very little attention TO the pro-
cess Of this enumeration have little conception Of the labor
which has deyoyed upon the marshal and his assistants The
statistics of our country which these returns will furnish
taken with fidelity they doubt have been, will present
an invaluable amount of information We have endeavored
to make this apparent the tables which we have published
in relation to the productive industry Of st. Louis When
remembered that the labor has been bestowed upon
every city and town and nehbohood in the Unon we shall
then fully understand the wisdom Of Congress in connecting
these details with the census Of the populs,oD
Captain TwITcHELL has furnished us with full set Of
the blank schedules required BY law to be filled up in every
family, workshop, Office, and place Of business in the Sae.
is wonderful that much has been accomplished in
short period The schedules embrace sir kinds First,
for free inhabitants second, slaves third, record Of the
deaths in each family fourth agricultural statistics; b
the mechanic arts aud all establishments of industry where
any thing is produced the resn, of la6r and SIXTH tho
social statistics, such relate to the valuation Of real
estate taxes, schools, colleges, churches libraries newspa
pers periodicals, professions, crimes &C. The first three
schedules devoted statement of The age, color
place of birth and occupation, and the schedule Of deaths
stated the disease Of which persons died. and the length OF
illness The other schedules tedious and tho
to them often given with much hesson, and
if with suspicion that unlawful or unjusiaoe use
intended made Of the information thus solicited and
obtained. The simplicity well as the cunning Of many
persons thus called disclose the secrets Of their business
and households was often matter OF amusement to those
who were engaged in the performance OF this duty But
when made 10 understand the object of the many questions
which were put they were Of readily answered.
