THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT
The Census.


We have been requested by the assistant
Marshal to call the attention of our citizens
to the Importance of the Census which will
commence on the first of June. The in
structions are very strict in regard to COM
mencing with the Head of the Family or if
there is no Father or Mother, with the eldest
child or agent for such family.
We would suggest to each Head of
Family to prepare memorandum in am
swer to the following questions, and leave
it at the house so that when the assistant
Marshal makes his visit he can get the an
swer without the trouble OF calling two or
three times. The questions to be answered
are as follows-commencing with the Head
of the Family:
SOCIAL STATISTICS.
l. Age, Profession, Occupation, or trade, of
each male person over Is years of age.
2, Value of Real Estate, without regard to any
lien or incumbrance.
3. Value of Personal Estate-will consist of
els, Furniture, etc., etc.
A. Place of Birth, naming the State, Territory
or county.
S. Number attending School within the year.
The reason for requesting the heads of
families to leave a memorandum at their
dwelling houses, is that it will save time to
the Assistant Marshall, and have every
thing more correct, which is of the greatest
Importance, as there is no doubt the census
which is about to be taken will contain
information of great importance to our
State.
MANUFACTURERS.
We would also call the attention of all
manufacturers to the question which they
will be called upon to answer:
1. Name of business, mandatory or pro.
ducts.
2. Capital invested in real or persoal estate
in the business; raw material used, including
fuel, quantities, kinds, value of, kind of motive
power, machinery, &C., &c.
3. Average number OF hands employed, male
and female
4. Average monthly cost of male labor.
5. Average monthly cost of female labor.
ANNUAL PRODUCTS.
Quantities, kind, value.
We would state to all persons who may
be engaged in manufactures, that it is of
great Importance they should make as corr
rect an estimate as possible of their bust
ness. The present Census will have great
weight with our future prosperity, and each
person should feel an interest in having the
date regarding our manufactures and pro.
ducts as correct and full as possible. There
is penalty, or fine, for refusing to make
proper answers, or for making false answers.
FARMERS.
We would also call the attention of farm
ers to the following questions
l. Number of improved acres.
2. Number of unimproved acres.
3. Cash value of farm.
4. Value of farming implements and
machinery.
5. Horses.
6. Mich COWS.
Z. Working oxen.
8. Sheep.
10. Swine.
IL. Value of live stock
IL. Number of bushels of all kinds of grain.
ID. Number of pounds of butter.
IA. Number of pounds of cheese.
Is. Number of pounds of maple sugar.
16. Value of home manufactures.
II. Value of animals slaughtered.
This portion is of the utmost importance,
and it will show the amount of the different
articles which are raised in our State.

every organ OF the body Every feels the poison

ception- be would vote against any such
proposition. Mr.. Nash stated his views: he
was opposed to the bill at first. and to the bill
in lieu; he expected to vote against it. The
motion to make the bill the special order for
Tuesday was passed, and Mr.. Lane demanded
the yeas and nays Mr.. Stokes withdrew the
motion. Mr.. Payne renewed it, and the re
suit stood-yeas 10, nays 5, and the question
was postponed to Tuesday.

CLIMATE OF THE UNITED STATEs.-Prof Jo-
seph Henry, Of the SmitbsoniOn institute, has
maps illustrating the climate of the United
States The isOthermal lines follow the lines
of latitude very nearly, except in passing
over the great ranges of the Rocky noun
tains, which occupy about one third of the
space between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
There the line curves to the North ten de-
grees, and by another curve meets the Pacific
coast at same degree il started with. The
cause OF this increase of temperature upon
these mountains he ascribes to the prevailing
westerly winds. These come from the Pa
cific, charged with moisture. The mountains
absorb much of the moisture. by which pro-
cess latent heat is developed, and the temper
atnre is thereby elevated.
