WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-COlOnel SeatOn, Super
intendent of the Census says that the compendium,
OF handy volume, containing popular digest of the
statistical results of tho census, will be ready for
issue about the time Congress meets. 1t will be a
volume of about 400 pages and will be relatively
the same as the compendium of the census of 1870,
issued in 1872. 1t will differ from the latter in
that it will contain many improvements Colonel
Seaton hopes to complete tho OF 1850 by tho
end of the present fiscal year 1t is expected that
the results will be summed up in some IL. 900
pages published in fourteen or fifteen volumes.
Statements published recently to the effect that the
work of the Census Bureau was hopelesSy in ar
rears and that the forthcoming compendium would
be very incomplete are pronounced untrue by Colo
mel SeatOn.
