y Hon. BEs C. Eastman opposed
in Congress the bill ordering a large
number Of the Census Reports. We
nave been unable to ind a tuII report Of
his speech, but it provoked the following
note in the National Iatesligencer, from
some one who seemed to take it 10 heart !:
Messrs. Editors: Will you permit one
who feels an interest in the subject of
the census to correct, iii few words,
an error iuso which member from n is
consin has fallen, as shown in his remarks
upon the subject in the House Of Repre-
sentatives on Thursday last. He says
that Grant" County, Wisconsin, con-
tanning IN 1850 sixteen subdivisions and
Ia population Of over Is 600, is stated in
the Census Report to have only ten sub
divisions and population of $500"
Upon looking into the volume | find
that in every instance in which the total
population OF Grant County is stated il is
put down at 1860. In the table of
subdivision there are only ten given !;
but the reason is assigned in note in
the preceding page, viz. that these were
all that the assistant marshals had clear
~ defined in their returns.
We think the writer is mistaken VIII en-
he inlimates that our assistant Marshal
had not returned fully,--we know he is
mistaken for we helped compare and in
close the entire budget, and if any was
sent, all was.

Gov. RAMsAY.-A telegraph dis patch
ITO eastern papers from Washington, un-
der date of the 10th says:
"The testimony taken in the Mime
sofa Indian case was presented to the
Senate this morning. A prominent
Northwestern Democrat, who under
stands the whole case and has seen all
the testimony, says that it is complete
lvindication Of Gov. Ramsay, Mr.. Sib-
ley, and other gentlemen who have been
funjustly aspersed, in connection with
this matter"
We have never had doubt of the
full exoneration Of the above gentlemen
from all blame in the matter referred to,
as soon as the facts in the case became
fully known.

PROSPECTUS OF THE DAILY NATIONAL ERA

shall ISSUE on the I'd day Of January en-.
suing the DAILY NATIONAL ERA, Political
and Literary Newspaper.
In Politics it will advocate the Rights oil
Man. and the Equality of Rights and oppose
whatever violates or tends TO violate them
whether this be Involuntary Personal Servi
tude, Civil Despotism, Spiritual Absolutism,
Class Legislation, the ScGshness OF Capital,
the Tyranny of Combination, the Oppression OF
q Majority or the Exactions Of n Party.
IL will hold no fellowship with the Wing
and Democratic organisations, believing that
tho main Issues on which they have been ar
rayed against each other are obsolete or settled,
and that they are now chiefly used by the SEQ
tional Interest Of Slavery, to impair the love Of
Liberty natural to the American mind, and to
subiucase the American People to its rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, it will yet
svmpathizc with those Of their adheronts who
are honestly seeking through them to advance
the substantial Of the country, although
il must believe that they have not chosen tho
better way.
IL will bo supporter of tho Independents

Declaration of Independence are practical that
