II is briefly mentioned in the foreign news
shat Thomas Babington Macaulsy, the great
historian of England, is dead. This is an
event that will create deep feeling of regret
wherever the English language is read. His
health had been impaired fer some time, but it
vas never said that his ailments were of a
dangerous nature. He was only in the 60lh
year of his age, having been born with the
century, and bad always led a temperate if not
active lie. He graduated at Trinity College,
and was admitted to the bar in 1926. But his
tastes were wholly literary, aud he never made
any figure as barrster. He began to write
for the Edinburgh Review in the year 1926,
and for twenty years be contributed regularly
90 that work, bis brilliant papers raising the
Review 10 a degree of Importance and popu-.
larisy that il had never previously reached, and
from which j, has decidedly declined since
Macaulay, through other occupations, was
obliged 10 cease writing for its pages.
The deceased was formerly member of the
Supreme Council of Calcutta, and several times
q member of Parliament. About two years
ago Queen Victoria did herself honor by eleva-
ting Macaulay to the Peerage, nnder the title
OF Baron Macsulay. He never married, and

" 10 be prepared to make proper return upon
the sudden and unexpected call of the census
agent in the summer. 10 fact, it would be
well if every farmer and planter would have
and hold in view the Importance of being fully
prepared with statement wherefrom the qnes-
tions of the marshal could be promptly and
correctly answered. The reasons which should
induce preparations now on the parrot the sg-
rioultural community are, at later period,
equally applicable to all classes of persons. 1t
is a gratifying fact, and one creditable to the
intelligence OF the American people, that In
taking the seventh census only three persons
demurred TO responding to the questions of the
marshals, and they waived their objections when
appealed to BY the officer having the general
charge of that Wsrk. We understand that timo-
~ notice will be given regarding the nature OF
the information required for the eighth census,
which We hope the public press will literally aid
in speading throughout the land. and 1t is NOT
for a moment to be doubted that our people,
who are to reap the benefit of the knowledge
gained, will manifest universal aad cheerful
alacrity iu contributing each their quota of the
facts, which, in the aggregate, go to illustrate
the condition and progress of the nation.

We know not where the following story came
from, but as il gives dr. oil picture of me-
thodical and perseveriag Duschman, II may NOT
prove unentertaning "Two English gentle-
men once stepped into coffee house 10 Paris.
where they observed tall, odd locking man,
who appeared not to be native, sitting at one
of the tables and looking round with the most
stone-like gravity of countenance upon every
object. Soon after the two Englishmeu enter
ed, one of them told the other that celebra-
ted dwarf had arrived at Paris. At this the
grave looking parsonage above mentioned open
ed bis mouth and spake & arrive,' said be,
thou arrivest, be arrives, we arrive, you arrive,
they arrive The Englishman whose remark
seemed to have suggested this mysterious
speech, stepped up to the stranger and asked.
Ibid you speak to me Sir 90 sI speak, replied
the stranger, 'thou speakest, he speaks, We
speak, you speak, they speak 'How is this

spirit with your rudeness come along with me-
To this defiance the imperturable stranger re-

The Census Of 1860.

As the predictions of the last from large
proportion of the elements of agricultural re-
turns to be embodied in the coming census, it
is suggested that more than ordinary care be
taken by our people in preserving an accurate
account of their various products of the field;
for although the census year embraces the Pe-
Rod between the first day of June, 1859, and
the frat day of June. 1860, including the lat
ter, the amount of agricultural products is main
ly determined the present winter, and unless
some care is exercised, the producer is not like
