The Hartford herald., 1879-04-23

lT is probably generally remem-
bered that some years ago-in 1875
Congress passed law providing for
the erecting of durable headstones over
the graves of soldiers of the regular
and volunteer forces of the United
States whose remains are inferred in
the National Military Cemeteries. This
law has been carried ont, and the
graves of the Nations dead in these
cemeteries are now permantly marked.
At the instance of the War Depart
ment, Congress has recently authorized
the erection of similar headstones over
the graves of the Union soldiers who
are buried in private and village
cemeteries. This will be done as soon
as the necessary arrangements can be
made. In the meantime the Quarter
master General, at Washington. will
at once pre- ceed to collect the necessary
information as TO where these head
stones are required.
All persons having any knowledge
OF the burial places of soldiers in
private cemeteries whose graves are
not marked, are requested to COM
the fact TO the Quartermaster
General, and give regiment, company,
and date of death of deceased, if
known. Similar information is desired
from parties iu charge of such GEN.
eteries
OF course it is not intended to
furnish headstones for graves over
which monuments have already been
erected by relatives or friends of the
deceased.
The Hartford herald., 1879-04-23
The next Census.

Members of Congress, particularly
from the South and West, are beseiged
with letters asking for the provisions Of
the new census law, and how appoint.
ments are TO be secured. The law in
brief is as follows: The President ap-
points. by snd with the advice and con.
sent Of the Senate, one or more Super.
visors Of the Census in each State; each
will get $500. This Supervisor recon-
mends ard the Secretary of the Interi.
or appoints the enumerator, Of whom
there will be large number in each
State and Territory. In certain subdi-
visions, TO be fixed beforehand by the
Superintendent at Washington. the pay,
'Eent ofepumerators will be two cents for
each inhabitaut or death reported, ten
cents for each farm. and fifteen cents for
each establishment Of productive industry
returned. In all other subdivisions east
OF the Tooth meridian (Which runs
through west Kansas, west Nebraska,
west Dakota and west Texas) the pay of
enumerators sLall not exceed 81 per day.
and west of that meridian Sc per day.
Each enumerator will have about 1000
inhabitants in his district. The enumer.

JoHy McMUHTRr, Of lexington,
who was nominated by the National
Greenbact convention for State Regis
ter, hss written n letter to the State
Central Committee declining We clip
the following from his letter of declina-
ton:
81 observe in the platform adopted
by said convention, that the sixth
article aims at a reputation of the
contracts of the Government in the
payment of the bonds, which is in
violation of the Toledo platform, as
adopted in a National convention of
over 800 delegates, representing thirty
three States, and is also in conflict
with law, Justice, and the good opinion
of every true man.
l am surprised that any man,
claiming to be friend of the Green
back cause, would advocate the adop-
ton Of such dishonorable sentiments
into our platform, and expect nominees
who had any self-respect TO advocate
such suicidal doctrines"

REPUBLICAN papers are trying to
make capital out of the fact that there
are nineteen Democratic Senators in
the Federal Senate who were in the
Confederate army. but they are sensi-
bly, silent over the fact that only four
Of the Republican Senators were in
the Union army. Two of whom are
Logan and kellogg. of whom there is
certainly no occasion to brag. This
ia pretty fair indication that with all
its talk the Republican party does not
choose tie ex-Union soldiers for its
leaders. Republican.
