EXPENSE OF TAKING THE CRNsUs.- Gene,
raj Garfield stated on Saturday. in committee
of the whole, that the expense of taking the
various Federal censuses was as follows: Cen
sus Of 1880, $44 600; 1900, SOS 600; 1910.
1910, $685., 900; 1850, $1,318OOO; 1860, ST.

the last mentioned estimate may not be amiss

The Radical Of this Thursday NOR
ming, announces that Hon. Geo w. Ju
lian's condition is much improved He
is yet in New York city, undergoing
medical treatment from Surgeon Ham,
mond of the u. S. Army. The Anti
Slavery Standard thinks that seat in
the u S. Senate, would effect com.
plete cure. If Senator Pratt has re-
signed, as is rumored, Gov. Baker will
be importnned to try the effects of this
doctor stuff
In view of the surroundings in this
district, and troubles, it might be good
idea to make the above medical applica-
ton, in order to pour oil on the turbid
waters and settle affairs here for all time
to come. The experiment. might be
worthy of a trial.

The name of Joseph Holt, of Ken
lucky, is prominently mentioned in con-
nection with the appointment to the va
tancy in the Supreme Bench. The APP
poiniment of Judge Holt would give
satisfaction to the whole country, and is
one eminently fit to be made. If locality
is taken into consideration, it is due to
the Southern States that they have q
representative on the Supreme Bench.
The New York Tribune says: "Mrs
