STATE CENSUS.

At the recent session of tile Legis-
lature an act was passed, conformally
to the provision Of the State constitu.
tion requiring an enumeration of the
inhabitants Of the State every two
years, providing that the census of
1875 shall be taken by the assessors Of
the several towns and cities. The
Secretary of State is required to fur
nish the proper blank forms or sched-
ules, indicating the several classes Of
statistics to be obtained; to wit, tie
name of each person, age, sex, nativity
number of families, deaf, dumb and
blind, value of church property in
each town, and perhaps another item,
though we believe this is ALL 1t
seems pity that the list was not ex.
tended to embrace other important in
formation. the collection of which is
not already provided for in the system
of annual returns, admirable so far as
it goes, but too limited in its scope,
established by the state under the su-
pervision of the Commissioned of Sta
tistics These embrace full and very
accurate yearly returns of tha agricul-
tural and cognate products of the
State, very complete vital statistics,
em bracing great variety Of valuable
details, the school returns collected By
the Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tions and some other matters Of inter-
est. But the system Of annual returns
provides for no collection of the sta.
tistics of manufactures, banks, the
press, educational institutions not sup.
ported by the State, the value of agri-
cultural implements, and other matters
of Importance which ought to have
been included in decennial census of
the State.
Perhaps, however, the Legislature,
in assigning the work from economical
motives to the assessors, had due re-
gard to the intelligence of the average
assessor in not placing too heavy a
burden on his mind.
Twenty thousand dollars is appro-
priated for the expenses of the census.
The rate Of pay is cent and half
per name in the cities, three cents, We
believe in the rural districts generally,
and five cents in the more sparsely set
tied counties of the frontier.
The census is to be taken on or
about May lst, and It is, therefore, de-
sirable that the county officers, news
papers, &C., should take pains to i'm
press upon the assessors the importance
Of thoroughness aud accuracy in the
performance Of the important duties
imposed upon them.

PENSIONS.-'rhc Federal Government
pays more yearly in pensions than ittlil
for the whole yearly average of cxpens-
cs OF the Government for the first co
years Of its existence. There is some
consolation that the reports of the Pen
sion Office for the fiscal year just closed
shows that the maximum was reached in
1873, and that the enormous drain in
this direction is now Oh the decrease
From the close OF the war up to July,
1873. tho pension cases continually i'll
creased. On June 80. 1873, the number
Of pensioners on the roll WAS 2Gj,2ll.-
June so, 1874, there were 232,gO5, 4 de-
crease Of 2,306. On June 30, 1875, the
number Was 22S. 034, decrease or4,s7l
from 1874 to 1875, or over twice Us ma.
ny rs from 1873 to 1874. These figures
show that the maximum number was
reached i'll 1873, and it is now expected
that the decrease will continue from this
time forward. The above figures are all
Oh the army roll and the decrease comes
mostly from the soldiers OF the War Of
1912. The navy widows division, and
from the deaths OF rolls contain only 4
few thousand names and the number has
but slightly decreased. The amount
paid for pensions during the year end
ing June so, 1874, was S3O,52G, 053, and
the amount paid for the year ending
June 80. 1875, was 500, $50. 900, or about
million and Il quarter less than the
previous year. SO says the Fredericks-
