A Census Of Our State.

A proposition that a new census of
Pennsylvania shall be taken on the first
day of June, 1875, in order to present
full exhibition of industrial wealth on
the occasion of our great Centennial
Anniversary, is now before the State
Legislature at Harrisburg. No one can
doubt that it is most desirable, most
proper, to have this done. The time
would be half way between the last and
the next United States census, and the
thing itself would be that "takipg Of
stock" which is necessary in national as
we'll as in commercial affairs. Neither
need the expense be considerable. The
assistance of q great many persons would
be required, but only for a short time,
namely, for the actual enumeration of
the people and the ascertaining, CLASH
tying, and properly condensing the sta
tistios which would be collected A
good staff of able and honest workers
would be very requisite, and there can
be no doubt that it could be organzed
with little difficulty. Above all-"aye,
there's the rub"--it will be necessary to
employ trustworthy people, who would
disdain to make a job of what, if not
fairly done, had better not be done at
all. One point, above all, would have
to be insisted on, namely the accurate
enumeration of the inhabitants of Penn.
sylyania. The taking of the national
census in 1860, and again in 1870,
showed how the thing was no, to be
done. In Philadelphia alone, in 1870
over fortnight was wasted in the at
tempt to count the number of inhabit-
ants. The only reliable mode is, let the
counting be done all on one and the
same day, and strictly include each
person within doors, wherever he or she
might be, on one particular night

The Old War in a New Shape.

When the Confederate army surren-
dered, and the Southern leaders preten-
ded to accept the situation'-as they
termed it-that is, to submit to the Con-
stitution and the laws of the United
States, large numbers of disbanded SOL
diers and young men who had come of
age since the peace, renewed the war by
Ku-Klux bands, their aim being to estab-
lish a reign of terror by killing black men,
whipping or numbering all white men
who were friendly to the blacks, robbing,
torturing or driving out emigrants from
the North, so as to restore the same So
cial and political absolutism of the old
slaveholding Rebel class, as existed be-
fore the Rebel surrender.
These Ku-Klux atrocities were carried
on until their murdered victims were
counted by thousands, and their whipped,
plundered and driven off black and white,
by many thousands, while partizan
press at the North derided all publication
of them, and affected to ignore their ex-
istence. The history of the cruelties
which have made the ears of mankind
to tingle will have to be searched to par
allel these cold-blooded atrocities upon
an inoffensive people and their white
friends. At length the public sentiment
was aroused, and it awoke the govern
ment from its supineness. The so-called
better class in the South was under the
Ku-Klux reign of terror, if not in
sympathy with this warfare. Only
the military arm of the nation could
deal with it. Some signal captures and
convictions, aided by the moral influence
of the military, suppressed the Ku-Klux
in those States where it had been boldest,
although in some parts, and particularly
in the State of Kentucky, which has a
peculiar genius for warfare under the
guise of peace, it has kept up course
of outrages.
Yet when we speak of the suppression
of the Ku-Klux, and of a comparative
cessation of the atrocities in the South, it
must not be understood as what we, in
the North, understand by peace, and the
due protection of person and property.
For, in the chivalrous South, it is always
considered in order to shoot negro if
any occasion can be made; and to this
chivalrous mind, the fact that the negro
is free, and that he wants the rights and
consideration due free man is sufficient
cause for making an occasion to shoot
him. Close observation of the Southern
accounts of riots, disturbances, alarms
and killings, shows that the negro is
never the aggressor; that he is always
the one who is put upon, and is inyari-
ably the victim. 1t is the old story of the
wolf and the lamb.
But the war which the infamous Ku-
Klux carried on is now declared openly
