PREPARING Fon THE CENSUS.

John mcCarthy, che Recently Ap.
 pointed Supsrvls0r of the C6nsus,
 Enters Upon His Duties.
 Yesterday morning John McCarthy. who was recently appointed supervisor of the census for the First district of Connecticut, received from Washington his first install- msnt of official documents, with blank appli- cations. These will be sent to all persons who dsaire to be appointed snumsrators. Raven, Fairfield, Litchaeld and Aiddlesex, and tho number of snumerators that 1t will require cannot at this time be stated. Mr. McCarthy is allowed six clerks to help him do his work and the appointment of these clerks will be made probably this week, but just who will be appointed cannot now be stated.
 The law provides that all soldiers shall be given the preference in the selection of the subordinate offices, and Nr. EcCarthy intends to follow 1t. The political inclinations do not enter into the question.
 As soon as the blank applications are re- turned MT. Mccarthy will make his selection and forward the same to Washington for ap- pointment. As many can apply as may de- sire, and blanks will be sent to all who de sire them. The work of enumsrators will be finished within month. In cities 1t will be finished within two weeks, and in country towns four weeks will be allowed. The pay of the enumsrators is regulated by law. Two cents will be paid for each inhabitant re- ported. two cents for each death, fifteen cents for each farm, twenty cents for each establishment of productive industry and Ave cents for each surviving soldier, sailor or marine. The lay also provides that after the work is begun there must be no cessa- tion until 1t is completed, the enumeratora being compelled to work on every week day no matter what tho weather may be. Any failure of an enumerator to complete his work in tho time specified will be reason enough for tho withholding of his pay Sickness or lack of attention to his duties is sufficient to cause removal and the ap' polntment of successor.

A Corner In Reading g.1e Furnlshes
 Two.SAirds Of she Entire Business-
 some Activity in sugar.
 NEW YoR4. March 10.
 Railroad bonds were sliRhtiy moro active, but outside of the Reading fours there little feature to the trading. The sales reached $1,s 900. of which 324o,0e0 were Reading fours. The tone of the market was steady.
 There was little of the stock market to-day out side of the dealings in Reading though few stoehs in sympathy with that stock showed marked strength at times Tho shorts in Reading this mornis found themselves in tight place. and not since the Oregon Continental deal have there been such heavy transactions in any one stock or 50 wide an interest taken in any deal. During the forenoon ct least the corner in Reading absorbed the entire attention of the street. and out of total of 171 000 shares of listed stocks traded in over 127 900 in Reading and for the first half hour 30 0O0 shares of that stock dealt in. For the day it furnished s56 40 shares out of or about two-thirds of the entire business in listed stocks. The record for one steck is certainly eclipsed by this. The losses of the bears have been very heavy. A large crowd gathered in the stock before the opening and everyone was bidding with no stock apparently for sale. The price rose from 3s16 to 40, when the bidding for cash lots began and while sales in the regular way were made as high as 414 cash sales were run up to 42N and the difference at times was even larger than that. Tho bidding for cash lots continued very urgent up to noon, after which there was less demand for them until two o'clock but in the last hour very little of the stock was ssld that way. This squeeze gives evidence of how largely the market has been over sold, and in Lackawanna and Atchson to-day there were miniature squsezes and 1t is believed that a similar movement in all the active stocks would cause corresponding amount of distress among the bears in other stocks. Beyond the movements in the two stocks mentioned there was little in to. days market and dullness and staguation with . feverish tone marked the tradi ng. Sugar was an exception, however, and, while 1t ran of at first, material advance followed, nost of which was re tained at the close of business. Among the low priced shares Louisville and New Albany were con spcuous for one of its advances, but Union Pacific and Tennessee Ccal were specially weak. A majority of final changes declines.

THOSE NEW LETTER BOXES.

An Innovation that Causes Some Per.
 plexlsy as Rirss, bus They Will In
 Time De Appreciated.
 The letter boxes of new design that have replaced four of the old onss in the o,ty have stirred up considerable opposition. Like many other hew things not yet understood, their introduction Is not hailed with acclama- tions of delight, but Postmaster Sperry is confident that when the public becomes used to them their advantages will be appreciated. He considers the new kind great improve msnt over the old ones. When the cover of the slot is opened 1t brings up sort of drawer inside which completely covers the interior part of the box. This prevents any tampering with the letters. In the old boxes an expert with piece of wire could extract letters from the inside. This is impossible to do in the new one. The letters drop down from the center to the bottom. In the old one they were apt to catch on the sidcs and come up % near to the slot as to be easily extracted. The bottom of the new boxes is not fat; 1t is with furrows. The uneven surface permits the water or snow which may be driven in during e storn to drain off through small holes at the bottom of tho furrows and also keeps tho letters above the water or snow. In the old boxes letters were frequently frozen to the bottom and had to be torn out. This is impossible in tho new style.
 About twenty more of these new letter boxes will be put up in place of the old ones, which are to be attached to the lamp posts upon the outskirts of the city.

Fame Cassls,s Coincidence.

At the last regular meeting of Fame castle No. 8 the following address of condolence was presented to G. Griswold, 8. K. O., whose wife died recently:
 To our esteemed Sir Knight Commander, G. Gris- wold: Brothsr-Iu this, your hour of afiictiop, we feel that we can say but little; that however we may ysarn to express our sympathies, words are of small value, for one has spoken, in whose presence mankind may well keep silence. Yet cheer up, brother. Though bitter the parting from the loved companion Of . lfetime all things work together for good to those who love God, and eternal hope points to . better land whispering that the mystic chain rudely severed here may be reunited here. after Though tedious may be your lonely pilgrim age without her presence you can at least feel sured of fraternal sympathy, and that your broth ers mourn with you. One day peace and reunion will come;. 1t is God's promise, and He doeth all things well.
 'Rest comes at length, though life be long and The day must must dawn. and darksowe night se past, All journeys end in welcome to the weary;
 And heaven. the hearts true home, must come at And with the morn that angel face will smile, Which have loved long since, but lost awhile."
