AN ADMINISTRATIVE TRIUMPH.
One OF the achievements OF the present adj
ministration rejecting great credit upon it, is
the work Of taking the ninth census, the
first volume of which is Just issued and is ready
for distribution.
This is the first time the result of census has
been published in less than three years from the
time the returns have been received at the de-
partment. 1t is moreover the most complete
and perfect in its arrangements, giving vast
amount Of information not compiled in former
reports of the census. The report of the super
inendent, Gen. Francis A, Walker, which ac-
companies this volume, gives detailed state
ment of many of the defects in the law provid.
ing for this work, and the difficulties in the way
of a more efficient and comprehensive system
for taking the census.
His conclusions and recommendations are en-
titled to the consideration and respect of legis-
lators, when the zeal, ability and untiring de-
votion which he has brought to this work are
considered.
There is q vast amount Of useful information
to be found in no other quarter contained in the
NINTH CENSUS OF THE UNITED STATES.
Large additions have been made TO the num-
~ " '"''>9 P"''''uO" ~ 'AYSo u A'00 On"
1860, and large amount ofusefu and valuable
material has been compiled and utilized that has
hitherto been neglected and overlooked.
There will be when completed three volumes
