became too tame even for the tender

once more arose, demanding the restora-

The most ancient statistical record of the
kind is that of Moses in the wilderness
That enumeration must have been exceed

of the fourth book of the Pentateuch.
"Take ye," says the account, ''the sum of
all the congregations of the children of
Israel after their families, by the house of
their fathers, with the number OF their
names, every male by their polls; from 20
years old and upward; all that are able to
go forth to war in Israel; thou and Aaron
shall number them by their armies" The
names of the chief enumerators are also
given, those who assisted Moses
and Aaron being the renowned
of the congregation, princes of the
tribes of their fathers, heads of thousands
in Israel. Then the enumerators "aSsem-

There is O record Of a census in China as
