THE CENSUS BUREAU.

Gen. F. A. Walker Superintendent of the
Ninth Census has submitted his annual report
to the Secretary of the Interior. He states that
the work of the office, which consists of COR
respondence arising out OF the publication of
the United States census Of 1870, or having ref
erence to the projected State census in 1875. or
to the International Statistical Congress-, has
been done by himself, without expense to the
Government, except that of postage. He re-
grets the paucity of results in the State census
OF 1875 and says that in a country as young as
the United States statistical information is Of
special importance in guiding its social and in
dustrial development, and that the indifference
of our people TO the advantages of such infor-
nation is certainly not proof of wisdom sd
perior to the need. After naming few States
in which the census has been taken the pres
ent year, Gen. Walker closes by saying that
enough is already known of the result to indi-
cate quite clearly that the progress of our pop
ulation has received a temporary check.

rBE MARINE HOSPITAL SERVICE.


DR.. J. NJ. woodworth, Supervising Surgeon
Of the Marine Hospital Service, in his annual
report takes strong grounds in favor OF the
adoption Of more stringent methods for the
prevention of the introduction OF cholera into
this country, and makes important recon-
mendations. DIR. Woodwork thinks cholers
can be entirely prevented by prompt and au-
thoritative information TO threatened ports OF
the shipment of passengers and goods from a
cholera-infected district, and rigid quaran-
tine. II the Health Officers at the different
ports of the United States we're made aware by
telegraph of the fact that emigrants or goods
supposed TO be infected we're en- route to this
country, measures could be taken TO prevent,
without difficulty their admission. DIR. Wood
worth thinks that it il most needed that the
National Government through its Consular
officers should acquire the necessary inforrna-
ton, and then promptly and intelligently fur
nish it 10 the ports and localities proposed.
Thus advised threatened communities would
have ample time for preparation and the pub
licity given to the warning would be the most
efficient means of insuring proper precaution-
AIRY measures The President has promised 70
give DIR. Woodworths recommendations the
due attention they deserve, and will, no doubt,
carry out the plan before another cholera sea-
son.

THE POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT.
The following interesting figures are taken
from the annual report of Postmaster General
Jewell:
During the year there were issued lO7, Gle 600
postal cards, Of the value Of 1,076, 16O In the
month Of October last there were issued OF the
new cards 20, 138 900, which il one-ffth of the

lie or ordinary postal stamps issued to Postmas-
ters during the fiscal year $50, 342 40, of q
value of S1S, 271, 479. The value of postage
and periodical stamps was 1915, 900. The sta
tistics of the Dead-Letter Service are of quite
romantic interest. The number of dead letters
handled during the year was about 4. 500, 600.

1000; IA, 225 letters contained drafts, notes
and bills OF exchange Of value Of 81, 9S7, S47

During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1875,
the cost Of the inland mail transportation was
70,083 miles in length, 80, PIG, 51S on 80 steam
boat routes, aggregating 10, 7S8 miles in length,

fiscal wear, SIS, 1853, 500, which was an increase
OF 1876 miles in the length of routes over the
preceding year, and decrease of S4S, 683 in
the cost thereof. The appropriation to cover
the expenditure of inland transportation during
the present fiscal year is S17, 548, 900, and the

THE PUBLIC LANDS.

The report of the Commissioner of the Gen
eral Land Office gives some interesting data in
regard to the business of the Bureau during
thelast fiscal year. The falling off in dispos-
ais" has been equal to over twenty-five per
cent. and il chiefly due to the grasshopper
plague, to unusual drought i'm certain localities,
and to the decreased volume of immigration.
The Commissioner gives special prominence to
the necessity of the Government taking some
measures TO arrest the indiscriminate sacrifice
of mountain timber on its own domain, where
by the continuous feeding of streams from the
gradual melting of the snow is so disastrously
interfered with. The Commissioner strongly
recommends that ali timber lands owned by the
Government be appraised and thrown open to
purchase, at not less than their appraised value.
He IL of opinion that unless they are thus
placed under private guardianship the fine for
ests Of the country will soon be wastefully ex-
hausted by lumber companies and spectators,
who are now stripping the land of its timber
under cover Of dummy" pre-emption or with
out any pretense of the observance of the law
while the Government derives no revenue from
its property, and the country sustains almost
irreparable damage from the sweeping denud-
ing Of large areas of it's water sheds. He also
condemns the practice of extending subdivision
surveys over immense bodies OF worthless land
west of the hundredth meridian, and suggests
that only such tracts be minutely surveyed az
have any attractions for settlers. He also re-
commends that provision be made for connect
ing the Land-Office surveys with important
points established by geological surveys of Ter
ritories and that monuments at section corners,
etc, be constructed in much more lasting
manner. The recommendation of his predeces-
sor that presumption laws should be abolished
and the homestead system made the only me-
thod Of acquiring title to agricultural lands. il
repeated by Commissioner Burdett and earn
estly urged upon the attention of Congress.

THE INDIANS.

Tho report of Indian Commissioner Smith is
a very important document, and review of
the proceedings of the council with the Sioux
delegation in Washington last May He la
ments the failure Of the Commission of which
Senator Allison was Chairman, to obtain from
the Sioux REIMBURSEMENT of their title to the
Black Hills. as he is aware that one thousand
or more miners have made their way into the
Sioux country in the face Of the most stringent
prohibitory orders by the military authorities
Alarge number of miners have organized into
an association for mutual protection, and
have adopted laws and regulations; have staked
out and reserved their claims in the right to
which they expect hereafter TO be protected.
In this complication Of affairs Commissioner
Smith considers that there is but one slrerna-
tive for the Government-eit to increase
the military force so as TO compel strict OBJ
servance of the treaty riglts Of the Sioux. by
preventing all intrusion or to put such re-
strictions upon the exel else of the large bounty

ment that will be likely TO procure their assent

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE
TREASURY.

The report Of Secretary Bristow will, it is
stated, take strong ground in favor of the re-
sumption of specie payments. The report will
show falling off in the receipts of customs
for the first six months OF the present year as
compared with the corresponding period of last
year, but an increase in internal revenue re-
cepts. The falling off in customs receipts
must be met by either an increase in duties or
decrease of expenditures in collection (Which
the department has from time to time effected) },
aud in the appropriations for the public service.
The Secretary has showed conclusively that the
duty on coffee, repealed by the net OF 1872, was
added to the selling price abroad, with no adj
vantage to consumers here. Economy in the
public expenditures will be energetically urged
by the Secretary.

Hon. Bluford Wilson, Solicitor for the Treas

no doubt of the complete final success of the
Government and the utter rout of the ring
but thinks that considerable time may be re-
quired to knock the bottom all out of it 80 that
it can never be built up again.

preparation of vessels have no more reference
to Spanish affairs than to those Of any other
country. There is no excitement concerning
Spain and Cuba. The President, some time
