Elsewhere win be published the list Of cen,
sus enunerators, appointed BY the superyi-1
sors and confirmed by the superintendent, and
the territorial subdivisions to which they are
assigned for the Second and Third census dis
tricts. These subdivisions are intended to
embrace from 1000 to 1000 inhabitants-
latter being the maximum limit prescribed by
law. The enumerators are charged with the
duty of obtaining list of all persons having
their usual place Of abode in their several dis
tricts on the first day Of June next. Any
changes of residences, new corners, by immi-
grafton or birth, or departures by emigration
or death after that date, are not to be entered
in the schedule. No account is to be taken of
them. The object is to ascertain the popula-
ton Of the United States on the first day of
June. The enumerator is provided with
schedules on which he is required to enter in
consecutive columns the number of the dwell
ings in the order Of visitation the number of
families in like order; the names of all per
sons composing a family-family meaning
any individual or aggregation of individuals
under one roof and having.a common table;
the age, sex, color, occupation and place of
birth of each individual. In agricultural
districts the enumerators ane, provided with
schedules embracing great variety of agri-
cultural statistics. They are also provided
WI 1n1o fo rte;p &bo s<o ek;o of
manufacturers, except in cities. where special
agents are appointed for the purpose. Spe-
cial agents have also been appointed to col
lect the statistics of q number of special in
dustries. The enumerators in cities of over
10000 inhabitants are required to enter upon
their work of enumeration on the first day of
June and complete it within two weeks. In
the country districts they are allowed the en-
tire month to complete the work. It will be
observed that for the purpose of this cencus
the city of St. Paul is divided into twenty lone
subdivisions and Minneapolis into twenty
eight. The Second district, with it's head
quarters in Minneapolis, has 254 enumera-
tors, and the Third district, headquarters at
St. Paul, embraces 220 districts. 1t should
be added for the instruction of all heads OF
families and all individuals of mature age thai
the census law requires every person more
than twenty years Of age in case of the alb.
sence of the heads and; other members of such
family to render a true account of the mem:
bers of such family and subjects him to a fine
in case of refusal. But it is not anticipated
that it will be necessary, except in very rare
instances, to resort to this com pulsory feature
of the law. = The enumerators are required tc
be courteous in their inquiries and the au-
thorities rely on the high degree of popular
intelligence existing in the United States and
the general appreciation of the value and i'm.
portance of the census to facilitate the task o.
the enumerator by the cordial corporation
of every citizen.
