PAY OF THE CENSUS MARsHALs.
There being some diversity Of opinion
with regard to the pay of the Marshals
who will be engaged upon the census, we
give the following rates: = - a449 81 e-'
The amount to be paid to the Marshal
is one dollar per thousand in districts in
which the population exceeds one million;
if less, it is one dolla: and quarter
for each thousand. The assistants will
receive two cents per head of the popula-
ton, and where travel becomes necessary
ten cents per mile in addition. ten cents
for the statistics of each farm, fifteen cent.
for each establishment of productive, in
dustry, and two cents fer each death re-
ported. The Marshal must not receive
any part of the earnings of his assistants
under penalty of one thousand dollar
for each offence ~. gs-r rI -

taking of the census instead of six weeks
