All persons arc required, under
heavy pains and penalties, to answer
fairly such questions as may be leyiti-
ma,ely within tho scope of the cnum-
Grafton, but tho special provision Of
law applicable in such cases contcm-
plates a point-blank refusal rather
than the exhibition Of disinclination
to answer questions; and while the
Act of Congress is very plain Oh this
point, it is only extreme cases that
seem to demand rigid enforcement Of
the statute.
AS to tho rates Of compensation al
lowed Enumcrators, that is something
that think will hardly interest the
general public. Nor will l vouchsafc
any information on this matter to the
Enumcrltors, for l take it that this
highly interesting feature Of the bust
ness has already received due consid-
Grafton at their hands. In conclusion,
may say that in asking SO much space
in your columns, Mcssrs, Editors, |
have had only two objects in vicw-to
acquainL the public, to some extent Mt
least, with the character Of the infor-
nation that the Enumcmtors arc
charged with obtaining and putting
on record, and also to assist, if posi-
bic, those who will be associated with
nc in the arduous and difficult work
OF enumeration. II. r. r..

THE Secretary Of State has asked an
appropriation of $4,000 to expend in the
reception of the King of Siam. If it 1e-
Quires such large sum for such an insig-
n,ticant specimen of royalty, may Heaven
defend this country from visit FROM any
of the monarchs of Europe. In just pro-
portion to his state, in comparison, the
Emperor Of Germany would necessitate
an appropriation of 100000. 1t is
preferable that, if the Kings must come,
they come 40 exiles. A discrowned mon
arch, like stingless wasp, is harmless.

Moderate Drinking.

The first annual report of the society
for the encouragement of moderation in
drinking contains some figures that will
,atartle the extremists who are skeptical
shout the success of men who's began
work on the principle that half aloaf is
better than no bread. More than twenty
two thousand pledges have been secured
through the societey's efforts, and one
fourth Of these bound the signers to total
abstinence. Beyond this, however, four
thousand men have pledged themselves
not te drink during business hours, and
thirteen thousand agreed not to "stand
treat" or be treated. The amount OF
harm and discomfort prevented by these
limited pledges, that many temperance
advocates affect to despise, is lncalcula-
bic. The mischievous effects of drink ing
during business hours will be generally
admitted, even by men who use liquor,
while to the custom of treating must be
attributed at least half of the entire con.
sumption ofliquor throughout the country
as we'll Is the frequent luebriation Of men
who are not fond of liquor. All honor
to the society! May every city and town
organize one OF the same kind!-Ne,c
