Dred by the National Potters conven-
tion in session at Trenton the past
week, were Mr.. T. ]. Duffy and Mr.. J.
j. Jackson. Mr.. Duffy is Vice Presi-

TAKING THE CENSUS.
Country Divided Into Districts for En-
numerating Population.

The following scheme for the dlVls-
ion of the country into supervisors
districts for the purpose of taking the
twelfth census, was submitted by Hen
ry Gannett, geographer of the census,
and adopted by Director Merriam. The
census act provides that the whole
number of supervisors districts shall
not exceed 300, and that wherever prac-
ticable the boundaries of these dis
tricts shall conform to those of the
congressional district.
The number of congressional districts
is 357, to which must be added eight
territorial districts, including one ior
Hawaii, and two for Alaska. The num-
Der of districts to be saved by consol-
idation is therefore 65. In the interests
of the enumeration, it has been deemed
advisable to effect such consolidation
where the population is denser than
the average, rather than in sparsely
settled regions. The places in which
most of it will be effected are accord
ingly, the densely settled states, and
the larger cities. The census act fur
Their provides that the supervisors
shall be appointed by the president, by
and with the advice and consent of the
Senate. The following is the number cf
districts allotted to each New England
state:
Connecticut l, Maine 2, Massachusetts
l, New Hampshire l, Rhode Island l,

QUAINT SAYINGS.

1t is interesting and instructive to read
bright and well constructed advertise
ments. Messrs. c. l. Hood & Co. of sar-
saparilla fame must have been at a great
feast and taken everything home with
them. They are using bright selection
starters in a series of clever advertise
ments, wherein the proverbs are neatly
turned and paraphrased to fit the subject
matter. The public like this breezy adj
Vertising, as it reminds of other proverbs
and opens up discussion.

Houghton. Mifflin G. Co. have made a dainty
little volume OF twoscore pages out Of that
somewhat sentimental but Individually pathetic
and beautiful story. LONELINESS" which was
recently contributed to THE Atlantic Monthly"
by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Mrs. Ward). The
tenderness and sympathy shown In this piece
OF writing should commend It to all lovers Of
animals. and especially to those who feel that
the experiments Of the vivisector can be carried
altogether too far. The opponents Of the scalpel
as is used on our four footed friends will find In
this touching volume a weapon to their hand.
The last stroke Is added to the authors effective
plea by the photograph Of LONELINESS prenxed
10 her story. The thought Of that exquisite
little creature being strapped upon the viv-
sectors table excites something like a shudder.
We owe a debt OF gratitude to Mr.. Bertram
Dobell for the volume just published in Chi
cago by A. c. McClurg Co. THE City Of
Dreadful Night. and Other POEMS" being
selection from the works OF James Thomson.
In bis charming preface. Mr.. Dobsll observes
