The City Censns Comnletcd.

The city enumerators closed aKd revised
their work yesterday, having held open their
list, according to the census W, for two days
in order to give those whom they had omit
ted an opportunity to AID their names. There
we're but few who reported. and it is pre-
sumet that, after all they did their work
pretty ehectually. The lists. footed up, show
population within the corporate limits of
1865 souls Had the inhabitants in the
suburbs, the majority of whom do business
in the city, been included, the figures of the
enumerators who took these neighborhoods
would show virtual population of 1889
for Dallas.
