CLOSING OUT THE CENSUS.
-Cost of the Work-Total Population
Over Fifty Mill jons.
WASHINGTON, November 18.-The
Superintendent of the Census, in hi8
annual report to the Secretary of the
Interior, says that with the exception
of obtaining statistics of ship build,
ing, the qaarrying industry, produc
tion of petroleum and resources of J
Alaska, the field of work of the ninth
^emoTs^-is-now practically finished
Their labors will be completed in a
* few weeks, and only about one-sixth
of the total work of tabulation re
mains to be accomplished.
The total disbursements for the cen
eus thus far have been $3,860,008'
and Congress will be asked to ap
propriate $540,000 additional, in'
eluding $330,000 for the payment o1
the volunteer force that has been
carrying on the clerical work since
the exhaustion of the appropriation
made at the last session.
Secretary Kirkwood, in transmit
ting this report for the consideration
of the President and,Congress, pay8
a high tribute to Superintendent
Walker, and says it can be safely as
eerted that the ninth census is distin
guished from any that had preceded
it by better and far more reliable
work, comprehending departments of j
public and private industry never be
fore included in the census. The re
vised and corrected enumeration ol
the figures show that the total popu
lation of the United StateB is 50,155,"
783. The increase since 1870 ap
pears to be about 30 per cent.
The last charge of swindling against
the notorious robber Governor of j
Sooth Carolina, F. J. Most" is that,
he has been representing himself to
be that sweet Southern singer, tht
poet laureate of the South, Paul H
llayne. Undei this disguise he has
succeeded in obtaining several sums
of money from variaus parties in New
York, among them Edward Clarence
Stedman, the poet-banker, who was
mulcted in the sum of $25. We would
not be at all surprised if he is the
same Bcound rel that personated Mr'
James R. Randall, the author of "My
Maryland," iu the early part of tbi8
year in New York City, with simila1
results. So low, so despicable a hound
ought to be hard at work in some

Turn of South Carolina's Cot

We should surely be within hailing
distance now of what our cotton crop
will be. The first question, and one
of most material import, is: What is
our cotton area? Latham & Alexan
der's '-Cotton Movement" states it ac
1,C5G.000 :iorts. This looks large.
but isn't the statement sound ?
The Report of Department of Ag.
riculture for 1S78 gave the cotton
area of South Carolina at 944,050.
and for 1879 at 744, OOO. These
statements bear the unmistakable ear
mark of miserable guess-work. The
corn area given for South Carolina by
the eanie authority for 187S was
1,320,000, and for 1879 only 1,293,
000. There .is not a doubt in oui'

DAVID LANDRETH b SONS, .Philadalphik Pa..

Under the head of "Religion of the
Presidents" I see it stated in your
excellent paper that. Gen. Jackson
was a Methodist. Ut;, doubt, ess, at
tended the Methodi-t Church occa
sionally. But his motlier was a Pns
byterian, and Jackson was earefuHy
.trained in the Sh. ; ter 0:vt?f;l?rf,m .'?nd
the five points of rho Pr?^hytenaii
faith. i?; old fi%*. lie joined rit" Pr**
byteriau Church in JVi.shv?K T-nn.
The records of ih* church will show
the date. One ot bis br? Ibers was
taki n i risoner in 1780, during Lord
Cortiwaliie'j triumphant! march thro"
South Carolina, and thrown into pris,
on in Charleston. M'rsj Jacks.cn roda
on horseback from Lancaster to Char,
ieston, a distance ol" nearly 200 miles
to eee her son. On her return, when
about 50 miles from Charleston, ?-he
was taken with fever arid ilied. Af
ter the sad event young Andrew lived
with the family of Maj. Robert Craw
ford, whose wife was Jackson 3 aunt
Major Crawford was his guardian..
Jackson's mother was Miss White.
The Crawfords, Jacksons, Whites and
Duulaps all came from the north o*
Ireland, and settled io what was then
and is now known as the Waxhaw
Settlement, in Lancaster County, S.
C. They were all inveterate Whigs
during the Revolution. Alter the
war young Jackson began to learn
the taddlery trade under his uncle
Moses White, the brother ?f hi8
mother. He had not been long at it
when he suddenly "dashed aside bis
cools and declared that he was born
for a higher destiny. He then went
to Salisbury, N. C., to reside with a
Mr. Crawlord, father of W. fi. Craw
ford, formerly member of Congress
He studied law with Mr. Crawford,
and afterward moved to Tennessee
It has been said that Jackson was
born in North Carolina, only a shot t
distance from the dividing line be
tween the two States. Gen. Jackson
never forgot his old friends and kins
j?p?pple in South Carolina, and he oft
en expressed'a- wish to revisit the

Ti:e i..'.: ?/. ii:- ot' .\v-.;vML are to be
congratula tc-t 4$o?> in? manner in.
which the New Brigand; manufactur
ers were yesterday received. The
guests? within our gates were rn every
respect- representative New England
spinners; men of practical experience
and liberal views, whose "impressions
of the- South, received from the Cot
ton Exposition at Atlanta, have been
confirmed and' enhanced by inspec
tion of Augusta's factories and Au
gusta's facilities. They have trav
eled over our superb water way; wit
nessed a . massive new mill in the
course of construction, and at the
dam and bulk-head of the locks have
been convinced of the enterpiising
outlay which we made to secure euch
advantages. Mr. Edward Atkinson
much to the regret.of all, could not
he with us, bat his' contemporaries
from New England have visited us,
and have marveled at our works, and
glowingly predicted the future which
such manufacturing must bring. Our
gnc-ats have been impressed mest fa
vorably with the beauty of the town
and the high social qualities- of its
residents. The gcod opiuion of such
men is worth much to us, and it is a
matter of great satisfaction lp knoiv
that this opportunity^ of capturing
and entertaining distinguished visi
tors to the Expedition has been so
auspiciously improved. Mayor Mayt
who has been so indefatigable in hi3

.licly .thanked for their public spirit

that th- -Srsfe officers, mern hers of,
thc Legislature, County Commision

for four years instead of;two; that
the School Commissioners in the
counties shall be appointed for two
years by the Board of Equalization,,
instead of beiDg elected by the peo

upon conviction pf robbery, larceny,
perjury and forgery;" : and i that new
counties*may be formed' which ahatf
have more than 25,000 inhabitants,
or be four hundred sqare miles in ex

amendment of the Constitution ac
cordingly, and the Commission prefer
making the changes by specific
amendments to running the gauntlet
of a Constitutional Convention. At
the same time the Commission con
sider thc Conv?ntion mode prefera

The aim of the Commission, as th^ir
recommendations show, is mainly to
relieve the people from the distrae

give to the public eervice that effi

considerable discussion; and the re

Th? New Iiivebt.oB f f Brick Burning.
Since our mna of November 2d?
in which attention wai calif*] to the
"Asbury ProcertW? Uurnii-g Bricks,',
a kiln of 500,000 ? bricks, has been
OjV^?jt?d at ihe yur is ot Messrs. BOD
durant, J-.-p!n;g &0o.- Notwithbtand*
lng this was Omi ki.'n, burned un
der the disadvantage oi'^a want . ^
HC-qiuintHnc'e:iwitb -the. character of
the clay, by a burner from another
State, who thas- could., not possibly.
make a thorough and proper applies?
tion of the heat; yet: the kiln was
burned of a uniform hardness and
color, and with much less than ten
per cent: of salmon' -bricks. Souse
idea of the importance of this ne
?process of burning bricks may be
formed from this fact, although it is
yet jn its very infan?y, iiiien itirpro
per application and management ii
not -half understood, aud1 when ex
perience and nee alone can develop
.this knowledge. "Still it shows the
enormous saving, over all old meth
ods, of '-one-third the quantity of
wood formerly required, as well 89
one-tnird of - the time and labor mr
der old processes, td say nothing of
the superior quality of the bricks.
Although based upon scientific^
principles, its simplicity is such that
the commonest laborer, who bas been
employed around kilns under-the old
met hods, may operate ft with mor*
certainly, ao.d^aucoess, .asto good and
well barned bricks, even in his firs^
attempt, ..than under the old method,
with all Hie past experience. Th?
economy of its use, even at first
sight, is indisputable to . those who
are acquainted with brick burning,
without, the practical illustration of
it-such as a kiln already burned.
Kiln clamps cr ca/ing? used in th?
old Btyle oi burning can be remod
elled for the application of this new
improvement for as trifling a sum ea
$10; thus entailing scarcely any coBt
on those' desiring to avail themselves
cf this great invention. It may be
safely asserted that under this sys,
