Letter Of George M. Dallas.

Our readers are referred to the excellent let
ter of Ex.Vice President Dallas, in another col
umn. 1t is truly Democratic document, and
coming from George M. Dallas, must receive
particular attention. His view of State rights,
should be the only one taken by the Democratic
party-in the Infringement of the rights, the
undoubted reserved rights of the individual
StatesI by the might Of a ruling majority in
Congress- we should know no South, no North,
no East, and no West. State rights or consol-
idation is plainly before the country.-ln the
language of jefferson Davis, the signs of the
times tends to consolidation" and the ever vigi-
LIANT Democracy of the land should arouse itself
to action, or the rights of the sovereign States,
for which the undaunted Calhoun fought during
long life, will give way at last to the Sc ucing
influence of consolidation and Capitalization.
A liberty like ours is too often the cause of list
jessness on the part of the people; and it is
known TO be a historic fact, that the Incidence
of the people, their carelessness in watching
rulers, has made more despotc thrones, than
republican empires. Then we should learn OF
the past, the management of our own future.
We should heed the past, that We may have no
cause of mourning if the future be not as we
an,icipated.- Southern RepeiAe.

The Seventh Census.

Some idea of the immense amount of duty
involved in the preparation of the census may be
inferred from the fact that, although about one
hundred and thirty-6ve clerks are employed
upon the work, it has been found necessary to
employ the greater number of them during extra
hours ut night, in order to lay before Congress,
ut an early period in the session, as much as
practicable, of the prepared returns, embracing,
in addition to the population returns, and the
apportionment Of members of Congress in the
several States, and the returns of interest," sta
tistics of the cotton, woollen and iron manufac-
lures. H.. Min
We further learn that it is the intention of the
chief of the Census Bureau to append the sta
tistics, complete, of Maryland, prefaced with
brief history of the settlement OF the State, and
that of every county in it, embracing their geo
graphical and agricultural character. All these
will be laid before Congress- in printed volume.
If Congress approve of the plan suggested
with reference to Maryland, the statistics ard
history of every State will be similarly arranged.
If we understand the matter, it is intended as a
sample of the great work
Recently, In looking over the printed volumes
of the sixth census, we notice that the greater
part of many of the tables were blank; but un.
der the present arrangement, there Will be no
waste spaces. AS a consequence, the bulk OF
the work will be considerably diminished
We presume that no one has yet accurately
calculated the number of any particularly sized
pages the work will occupy; but from what can
be guessed, three volumes of the dimensions OF
the American Archives will contain the highly
interesting and minute results of the seventh
