Arthur, expects TO retain his place, and Pro.

twenty years in this position a steadily gov.

five years since the result of The last census
is beginning TO make itself apparent in its
effect or the public mind. There are evil
der ces," he said to your correspondent, "of
higher popular appreciation of the uses
and utilities OF statistics, and assurances OF
farther reach and superior accursch in the

Mr.. Wright aud his force OF assistants will
be especially devoted to this subject, in all
parts of this country and in Europe as we'll.
Another statistician who covers the entirs
country even more thoroughly than any OF
those named Is Professor DODGE, the Salts

His division has Section of Correspondence

reporting in Europe for the information OF
American farmers who depend more or less
upon the European demand for their cereal
and meat products has been attended with
good degree OF success. Professor Dodge,
through these correspondents is able u give
each month very accurate statement OF the
condition OF the crops of the country. He
