The Next Census.

The census of 1880 is not attracting
a great deal of attention, especially as
that census is to be the basis of re-
apportionment Of representatives in the
lower branch of congress. Since the
census of 1870 the population in the
northwest has enormously increased,
while that of the east and south, except
Texas, has remained comparatively nm
changed. Gen. Walker, superintendent
of the census, is opposed TO enumerating
population under the act of 1850. That
law he says in his report TO the secre-
tary Of the interior, was passed when
statistical science was in its infancy.
Walker recommends the repeal of that
provision of the law of 1850 which pro-
vides that the enumeration of popula-
tion shall be made by deputy marshals.
He thinks the census-takers should be
appointed on the ground Of fitness. He
recommends that the secretary OF the
interior be authorized to appoint census
supervisors for the different states, not
to exceed $50.

Saving for Old Age.


No one denies. that it is wise to make
a provision -sorslE- age, but we are not
all agreed as to the kind of provision it
is hest to lay in. Certainly we shall
want a little money, for destitute old
man is indeed sorry sight. Yes, save
money, by all means. But an old man
needs just that particular kind of
strength which young men are most apt
to waste. Many foolish young fellow
will throw away on holiday certain
amount of nervous energy which he
will never feel the want OF till he is
seventy and then, how much he will
want it It is curious, but true, that a
bottle of champagne at twenty may in
tensify the rheumatism of three score.
It is a fact, that everlasting the eyes
at fourteen may necessitate the aid OF
spectacles at forty, instead of eighty.
We advise our young readers to be saw
ing of health for their old age, for the
maxim holds good with regard to health
as to money waste not, want not. 1t is
great mistake to suppose that any
violation of the laws of health can es
cape its penalty. Nature forgiyes nc
sin, no error. She lets off the offender
for fifty years sometimes, but she catche:
him at last; and iDficts the punishment
just when, just where, Just how be feels
| it the most. Save up for old age, but
save more than money; save health, SAVE
honor, save knowledge, save the recol,
| lections of good deeds and innocent
pleasures; save pure thoughts, saw,
| friends, save love. Save rich stores o
that kind OF wealth which time canno
diminish, nor death take away.

An Ape'r 1imicry.

The following is the story of Barbary
ape: Father Cassubon, famous
preacher, brought up the animal in
question, which, having become attached
to him, wished to follow him wherever
he went. One day when Casaubon was
going to church the ape, not being made
secure, followed his master to the place
of worship, and, being good climber,
silently mounted the sounding-board and
lay there quiet and concealed until the
sermon was in course of delivery. 1t
then advanced to the edge OF its perch
to see what was going on beneath 1t, and
to watch the actions of the orator. These
were no sooner observed by the able
mimic than it began to peform also. and
its limitations of the preacher were 30
erotesoue that the whole congregation
was put in state OF great rlsioility
such as could not be repressed. The
good father was alike shocked and indig-
nant at the ill-timed levity of his audi
ence, and began to administer some Sc
we're reproofs; but seeing all his efforts
falling he launched forth into violent
action, accompanied by loud yocliera-
tions. His frequent gestures the ape
did not fail to take up immediately
with no less animation than that which
inspired his master. Aud at this appar-
ent competition of the two individuals
tbe people burst into roars OF laughter,
and when the animal was pointed out to
| the pastor. though highly 81 asperated, it
is said he could hardly command his
own countenance while he gave direc-
tions to have the ape removed.

The New Postal Bill.


A W. shington correspondent says one
of the principal features of the house
bill for the reclassification Of mail mat>
ter is the provision requiring the pub
fishers of newspapers and periodicals
who desire their publications transmit
ted through the mails at second>class
rates to submit the came to the post
master at the place of publication, un-
der such regulations rs the postmaster
general may prescribe, to be examined
and registered once each year for
such transmission. The fee is to be
one dollar per year for each certificate of
registration, and the privilege thereby
granted may be revoked by the posts
master in case the publication shall so
change It's character as to bring it no
longer within the requirements OF the
bill, which are that such publications
must be published for the dissemination
OF information offs public character, and
have list OF paid subscriptions. The
bill proposes to establish four classes OF
mail matter: First, written matter /;
second, registered periodical publica-
tions; third, miscellaneous printed mat
ter; and fourth, merchandise. The
present rates OF postage for the first class
remains unchanged. The pound rate
of two cents per pound on second-class
matter is retained, and also extended
to sample copies. The rates for
books, transient newspapers, circulars,
proof sheets, and other miscellaneous
printed matter, and also for manuscript
copy accompanying corrected proof
sheets, IS to .be one cent for each two
ounces, aud the rate for merchant
disc" is fixed at one cent per ounce or
traction thereof.
