ADVANCE SHEETS OF THE NINTH
CENSUs.-Francis A. Walker, superinten-
dent of the Census Office, Washington, ID.
c., has laid us under obligations to him for
advance sheets of the ninth census of the
United States. The volume comprises 299
pages of the population volume, contain
ing Table by States and territories,
as white, free colored, slave, Chinese, and
Indian, 1S70-1790. Table 2-By coun-
ties, as white, free colored, slave, Chinese,
and Indian, 1S70-l790. Table 3-By
civil divisions less than counties, as native
and foreigner, white and colored, in 1870,
and as white and colorcd in 1860 and 1850.
Table 4-General nativity, 1870, 1860, 1850
and foreign parentage, 1870. We have al
ready given our readers much of the infor-
nation contained in the volume before us.
We learn by circular letter from Mr..
Walker that the permanent issue of the
population volume may be delayed for two
or three months yet, III order to complete
one of the most important tables which it
will contain. The volume is handsomely
printed, and it is remarkable fact that the
tables have been SO accurately prepared and
published that no errata are to be found in
them by the office, result, it is claimed,
never before attained in statistical work
of such magnitude.

merce, Richmond Pd.:
Dear Sir-lf L understand correctly the COM
plaint against this railroad company in the letter
of II. q. Calisher, OF Louisburg NJ c., which
was read before the meeting of the Board of Di-
rectors of the Chamber of Commerce, it does
great injustice to this company. He states that
by the Richmond and Petersburg railroad the
cost per load of flour and salt from Richmond ie
Louisburg is $40; and further, that the charge
from Petersburg to Lousburg being only
$42, leaves S2s for twenty-five miles-thus in
timating that the last named amount is received
by this railroad. If am correctin my rendering
of his letter, have to say that somebody ha:
made mistake and to assure you and all Others
who are Interested in the matter that this com
pany has for years charged seyenty-fou cent?
per barrel and sS5l.s0 per car load on -four o
| which this company received SSl0 and for sal
ity-four cents per sack and 1871 so per car load
of which this company receives $5, and we viii
defy any one to prove to the contrary.
Inviting your committee, to whom the lette
of the subject, have the honor to be, with tn
| highest respect, your obedient servant
| THos. ii. WYNN,
President r.. and p r. X. Co

THE RAIN.--We trust we shall hear no
more complaints from any section of the
State of droughts, dry weather, &c. In
case we do, we respectfully recommend a
flying visit to Richmond and view of the
noble ''Jeens," hereabonts, each bearing
evidence, the latter soon to do so, of the
plentiful supply OF water which has fallen
since yesterday morning. Our streets have
had running through them, in miniature
form, rivers and creeks.
Last night it rained without ceasing, and
as we wrte-ll o'clock A. M.-the dark
ened heavens give evidence of the coming of
more. New shoes that don't leak are in
demand. We want several pairs for our
selves and employees of this office. The
first boot and shoe dealer sending us an adj
vertisement shall have our custom. Fif-
teen or twenty of us wear number OF
shoes, and our custom is worth having, as
we buy for cash only.
