state Census.

The eleventh state census OF our
common wealth is now being taken. 1t
IL the eighteenth enumeration of the
people living within the present boun-
diaries of our State since the organization
Of tho territory Of Wisconsin. This
census will include the same character
Of information rs those heretofore taken
. under State authority. Some changes
; have been made in the headings, but
little additional has been inserted. The
number Of families is to be ascertained
this time. Heretofore the number Of
dwelling houses has been taken: but
both are now required, according to
law.
Another feature of the census will
make it an improvement on all before
il; it is, the enumeration and return of
the population of cities by Wards. This
is customary in other States,
and should have been adopted here
sooner.
What the present population of the
State is, rs the same will e shown 10y
the next Census Report, is of course Il
matter of speculation. Judging from
the increase Of the preceding two years,
we would put the figure at about l,O75,-
900; but the vote Of last fall indicates,
what we have all along thought to be
the case, that the increase since 1867 has
tar nj hn. Iva
largest absolute gain the State has yet
known in the same period Of time
This view of our fast rising power is
not, we are aware, in accordance with
the notions and assertions of those who
would try to make themselves believe
that our prohibitory law is rctardiug
immigration, aud sending seekers for
homes to poorer lands, but more gcnlal
laws, elsewhere. We shall insist on
our representations, however, and go
We, farther. Iowa has increased since
1860 i'll a greater ratio than any other
state except perhaps Minnesota, and is
receiving Il better class of immigrants,
bringing with them thrift, culture,
and refinement than any other state,
and incomparably better than any free
whisky Statc.-The latter claim will be
demonstrated hy the federal Census of
1870, when the number Of adults unable
to read and write, and the nativity OF
the population, Will be asccr,aincd.
Iowa has reputation abroad for having
agood prohihitory law, talthou"h the
law is sadly defective, and this rcputa-
ton is drawing to our fair fields aud
Hourshlng cities, our prolific prailie-
and fertile valleys, a population of the
very best material that has ever been
aggregated in the formation of "A COM
monwea.th. And if any seeking new
homes in our western Canaan prefer
drunkenness and anarchy, rottenncS,
and sgualor, 10 sobricty and order,
health and plenty, our Iowa presents
them few inducements, and no cncour-
agement, and there Will be no complaint
from our people if they go elsewhere

Wonders Of Modern Surgery.

The following is brief summary o
Al article in late atlantic Monthly, on
the recent discove. les and improve
ments in surgery.
BY the local application Ola sufficient
degree of cold, insensibility can he
be produced in any desired part, so that
man with a most eXquisitely painful
wound in the arm, or felon Oh the finger
can now look down in his perfect SEN
SEES upon the knife as it enters his own
body aud performs the most difficult OPP
Grafton with out giving him the least
pain.
A French surgeon has invented al IN
strumcnt, which he calls the "ecraseur,'
or crusher, to perform operations dam
gerous in surgery, on account OF the loss
of blood from the smaller vessels if per-
formed with the kni:c. 1t il formed
Of fine chain, gathered into loop,
which encloses the part to be removed
and by turniag the screw the chain is
frightened till the parts are separated
The blunt chain SO turns and twists the !
ends OF the blood vessels that hemor- !
rhagc is prevented. .
The eye is examined by an instru-
ment called the opthalmoscopc, by
which the depth of the globe Of the eye
can be readily and fully explored, and
through its aid great deal ofwhat has
been written and conjccturcd about the
diseases Of the eye have been found to
be wrong. The intricate passages oft the
ear, the nose and the whole of the wind
pipe and passages Of the lungs are now
carefully explored.
Perhaps one Of the best results of mod
ern science has been through what has
teen called conservative surgery, the
rule Of which is to save all that can pos /
sibly be saved from the amputation
knife. Many Of our brave soldiers COM
planned the reckless haste with which
in the late war. some surgeons would
cut OF arms and legs on account Of -tri-
ding wounds. This complaint was oft
ell Just. lbut one Oh the most NlStln-
guished surgeons in the world has latc-
~ written: AT Kings College it is rare
t. see amputation; in nine eases out Of
ten eNrision cor the cutting out of the
diseased portion of the limb should be
performed in stead.
\ boy at the West was caught under
fallen log and had his leg broken and
twisted upon itself at right angles with
his thigh, the bones protruding through
the flesh, and no doctor near. He lived
and after weeks Of suffering, was taken
to ahospital Modern conservative sur
gerry, instead Of an.putating the limb, as
he old fashioned surgery would have
done, sawed off the protruding bones,
turned the leg back again To its place,
and put on AN instrument to keep it of
equal length with the other and now the
BOY stands, runs and jumps with two
sound legs.

DEBATE.
MADRID March 16.-In the Constituent Cortes
yesterday, motion was made by q Republican mem
ber, that the Cortes take ground in favor of egaz
ing civil marriages, and several Republicans spoke
in support Of the motion. At the conclusion of the
debate it was announced that the Government in
tended to introduce bill on that subject. discus
sion arose concerning the cOnscription and the re-
cent popular demonstrations against it. Ministers
Sagosta, Topete, and Prim, accused 0rense and
Pierqd of making speeches to the people
on Sunday last, subversiye of the Gov
ernment. 0renso was charged with
melting the people to oppose the authority of tho
Cortes, and Piead accused Of cxhorting soldiers
to disobey tho orders of their officers. A violent
scene ensued in the Cortes the evaporation of both
parties rendered discussion mpracticable and after
a few words from Deputy Fgueras, pledgng the Re-
publican party, whatever its political desires might
be, to submit to the decision of the Constituent
Cortes, the subject dropped, and soon afterward
the sitting was adjourned.
