CLOSING OUT THE CENSUS* Cost of the Work-Total Population Over Fifty Millions. WASHINGTON, November 18.-The Superintendent of the Censun, in hia annual report to the Secretary of the Interior, says that with the exception of obtaining statistics of ship build, ing, tue quarrying industry, produc. tion of petroleum and resources of! Alaska, the field of work of the ninth ceubusr-hv-uow 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* sus thus far have been $3,800,008' 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 ou the clerical work since the exhaustion of the appropriation made at the last session. Secretary Kirkwood, iu transmit ting this report for the consideration of the President and.Congrees, pay8 a high tribute to Superintendent Walker, and says it can be safely as serted that the ninth census is distin guished from any that had preceded it by better a.id far more reliable work, comprehending departments of public and private industry never be fore included in thc 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 la-d, charge of swindling against the notorious robber Governor of Soul h Carolina, F. J. Moses, is that he has been representing himsell to be that sweet Southern singer, the poet laureate of the South, P*ul Ii Hayne. Uudei this disguise he has succeeded iu obtaining eeveral som8 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 scoundrel that personated Mr" James R. Randall, the author of "My Maryland," in the early part of tbia year in New York City, with nimila' results.

Af ter the sad event young A nd rev/ lived with the family of Maj. Robert Craw" ford, whose wife was Jackson's aunt' Major Crawford was his guardian. Jackson's mother was Miss White. The Crawfords, Jacksons, Whites and Danlaps all came from the n-jrth ol Ireland, and settled itt what was then and ia now known as the Waxhaw Settlement, in Lancaster County, S> C. They were all inveterate Whigs driving the Revolution. After the war young Jackson began to leam the saddlery trade under his uncle Moses White, the brother Of hi6 mother. He had not been long at it when he suddenly'dashed aside his tools and declared that he was born for a higher destiny. He then went to Salisbury, N.

WHI ' ILi'E jrV?> Mir \c\v Iiiveiit.w? ? t Brick Burning. Since our if-.sne of November 2d, in which a?iirMi'-n was called to tho 'Albury Procer o'? Burn?ig Bricks,' i kiln of 500,000 blicks. Las been ij.-?r-.i at lile yarda ol Messrs. Bot ilurant, J-phog & Co. No; vu instand* in J.J was H Lriai kiln, burned lin ier the disadvantage o? a want ncnurtinr?nee?jw.jth the character of the clay, by a humer from another State, who thus could not possibly make a thorough and proper applica? 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. Some idea of (he importance of this ne process of burning bricks may be formed from this fact, although it is yet in its very infancy-, when its pro per application and management it not half understood, and when ex perience and use ?lone can develop this knowledge. Still it shows the enormous saving, over all old meth ods, of one-third the quantity o? wood formerly required, as well as orie-tuird of the time abd labor un der old processes, td say nothing of the superior quality of the bricks-. Although based upon scientific principles, its simplicity is such thab the commonest laborer, who has been ern: loy ed around kilns under the old mei hods, may operate it with more certainty; auiL.sucoess, as to good and well burned bricks, even in his firs^ attempt, than under the old method, with ali his past experience. Tho economy of its use, even at first eight, 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 caring? used in the old style oi burning can be remod elled for the application of this new improvement for as trifling a sum ss S10, thus entailing scarcely any cost on those desiring to avail themselves cf this great invention. It may be safely asserted that under this sys? tem, even in the. first or trial kilns, when .the attendants of the kiln or? entirely unskilled in its managemei e, kilns of :m?ch les? thanj Wf?ii salTDXjn bricks ss UoiMld. ?0 inch wide, at 2* Feck! ting Bargains This Week?
