This represents an increase of 8796 habitations,

TUB ROUND TABLE is honorably distinguished
from its 'newspaper co temporaries in America by
the nobler character of the objects, literature and
art, to which it is devoted; by its cosmopolitan
spirit, which does not find in local pr?judices tho
norms of justice and taste; by its good breeding,
its fearlessness, and by the learning and wit which
marks its discussions. It has fairly earned the
kindly interest of the cultivated classes of the
whole country. To our people it is specially re?
commended by the fact that it gives but little
space to political subjects, and none at all to the
prevailing ungenerous method of treating them.
The fault we have to point out in tho Round Tobie
in its character of a journal of literature, is that it
sacrifices to the expression of opinions much of
the space which might, more profitably to itself
and to others, be givon to the narration of facts.
At present, two or three columns in each number
are given to a statement of the principles, and a
calculation of tho prospects of Radicalism in Eng?
land, by a clever, and, we suppose, expensive cor?
respondent. The same columns could be put to a
better purpose. There are a great many of us in
this country who desire to know something of the
cotemporary literature of England, France and
Germany, but who have not access to the literary
papers of those countries. Tho Round Tobie
would supply a great want of its general readers
if it would undertake to give this information even
upon the most moderate scale. Tho Satw day R -
view devotes several pages overy week to this de?
partment, and though, after all, it gives buts
brier insight into foreign literature, it supplies tho
want as well as could be reasonably expected from
an English journal on general literature. As aa
illustration of the tardiness with which foreign
books are noticed in the Round Tobie, we find an
elaborate and appreciative notice of AUERBACHS
"On the Heights" in the number for last Saturday
-the first, if wo mistake not, we have seen in that
paper-while there was a review of the original of
this charming story in the North British Reoiew
for December, 1865. This is certainly being some?
what behind the times.
IIB. DELMAB, Chief of tho "Statistical Bureau,"
has complimented the country (and himself) on
tho happy expedient upon which it was his good
fortuno to light in saving the country the expense
of the next cousus, end procuring all the necessa?
ry information, free of cost, through tho officials
of tho Internal Revenue Bureau. When WO first
saw this announcement wo wondered somewhat
that th in stupendous task had been so quietly ac?
complished. Wo all know something of the big
job lt is to take a census; how longa time, and how
much trouble it takes. Yet, here we are told, this
work of y oars was done in a few weeks, and all
without any ono's knowing anything about it.
What moans the Assistant Assessors of Internal
Revenue bavo for making accurate censos returns
we could not understand. They have only lists of
taxpayers, and those not very complote. Are we
to understand that property is hereafter to consti?
tute population ? This is hardly compatible with
our new institution of universal suffrage. Mr.
DSXJCAB'S figures, we fear, are not very reliable.
Below we give the statement of one assistant as?
sessor's experience of census-taking. Others may
have counted noses with great accuracy, but it is
but natural to suppose that a good deal of the late
"cheap" census ia fancy, and at least a part of it
guess-wjrk. But see tho account of the editor of
the Grand Haven (Mich.) Union, lately an Assist?
ant Assessor in the Fourth Michigan District:
"We wore not to be paid for going through our
division and taking tho census, and so, of course,
we did cot do it We work partly for a living, and
not altogether for the rou of it; and as to esti?
mating the population of thirteen towns and one
city, without regard to tho census returns, we did
not possess enough of omniscienoe to trust our?
selves with it. SJ wo quietly and soberly Bat down,
and, taking the last census for a basis, we esti?
mated tho advance of each town in our division in
population since that timo. If wo gut within six
rows ot apple trees of the truth, it is a wonder."
This census was indeed quietly taken.
THE RICHMOND Whig, speaking of registration
and the duty of the people of Virginia in regard to
it, has the fellowing very sensible remarks: "Con?
gress rules the Government, and the Republican
party rules Congress. That party we tberoforo
bavo to convince, satisfy and conciliate. No other
party has, or is ?kely to have, power over ns. If
wo sock to satisfy any other party, or to carry out
our preferences merely, without consulting the
views and meeting the exactions of the dominant
party, we will inevitably fail in what wo desire to ac
comLlish, vis: the rehabilitation of tho State. We
therefore admonish the poop lo of Virginia to be cir?
cumspect, cautious and wise, and to approach the
groat Bubi cet'before thom with ol ar heads and
cool tempo.*, and deal with it as the great
business affair upon which all other business
affairs are dependent, making up their minrla
so to act in reference to it as to secure and pro?
mote the present and future welfare of Oils afflict
ed Commonwealth. Are we prepared tobecomo
unconditional Union men? Are we prepared for
tho present to waive the high seals and to be con?
tent to co-operate in the work of reconstruction,
so as to secure a State Government that will pro?
tect us. and to be admitted into participation in
the advantages of the Federal Government, or win
we determine to engage in a 'hopeless, exasperat?
ing and suicidal >cont08t with Congress and tho
dominant party ? If we should organise against
them and outvote them . at the approaching elec?
tions, would not our victory be our min ? These
are questions for our peuple not only to consider,
but decide, and that speedily.

THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 20, 1867,
JOB WORK.-We have now completed our
office BO aa to execute, in the shortest possible
time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask the patronage of oar
friends.
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OPINION.
We publish this morning the opinion of the
Attorney General. It is a very able opinion,
and from his point of view, clear and conclusive.
We most suppose that its publication means
that the President intends to base some aotion
upon it Otherwise that publication is not
only useless but mischievous. If this opinion
is the proper construction of the Reconstruc?
tion Act, then all the orders which have been
issued from the Hoad Quarters of this Military
District are at once cancelled, and what is more?
the officer issuing them is responsible to any
individual m damages for any loss that those
orderB have caused.
Whether this interpretation of the Act is cor?
rect, is a legal question which we will not
undertake to decide. But it does not require
a legal education to perceive that this whole
question of construction depends rather upon
thc intention of the Act, than its words. The
real issue is not what this or that clause can be
interpreted to mean, but what really was the
power, with which Congress intended to invest
the military commanders of the District. In
other words this Act is something more than
a law of which any individual may claim the
technical construction-it is the solution of a
political problem, which ha? an influence
wider than any more legal enactment affecting
only private rights.
In examining this opinion, therefore, the in?
quiry as to its policy, as well as its technical
merits, forces itself upon oar consideration.
And in discussing this question it is impossible
to disregard tho public history of its passage.
In 18G?, after the surrender of Gen. LIE, it
immediately became a question, whether the
seoeded States were to be restored to the
Union. If so, on what terms, and by whom
these terms were to be prescribed. The Presi?
dent claimed thc right to effect this restoration
by a scheme of his own devising. Congress
refused to admit his right, and for two years
this question, as to whero the right of re-ad?
mission rested, exercised the national legisla?
ture. It was settled by the passage of the Re?
construction Act of 1867. That Act decided
the right to be in Congress, the law-making
power of the Government, and prescribed the
terms and mode of its accomplishment.
When this Act was passed, although over his
veto, the President resolved to execute it, and
did so by the appointment of the Ave Command?
ing Generals required by its provisions. They
were appointed and sent to their commands
u-ithout instructions, and were thus compelled
to depend upon their own construction of the
Act. It is difficult to understand why this
was so. The same able officer who has now
construed the Act, was then as he is now,
the chief Law officer of the Government
-the same views which he holds now, it
is to bo presumed he held then-and surely if j
ever there was a proper time when the Com?
manding Generals should have received full
and precise instructions as to their powers
and duties, it was then when they were
entering upon the exercise of their
novel authority, and before their action
could be complicated by the conflict of oivil and
military power. If, as the Attorney-General
says, "their education and training have not
been of the kind to fit them for the delicate and
difficult' task of giving construction to such a
statute as that now under consid?ration," why
for four months have they not only been allow?
ed, bot compelled to construe it? Not only so.
A month had not elapsed after their appoint?
ment before, by their acts and their orders,
they gave unmistakable evidence of what their
construction was-a construction which, we now
learn from Ute Attorney-General, was unwar?
ranted and illegal, and by which the lives and
the property of free citizens for all this time
wer? unjustly imperilled. Why did not the
President interfere? Why, during these months
of illegal oppression, was the military com
jmander of this District, for example, allowed
to "put himself upon an equality with the law
making power of the Union," or "to place him?
self on higher ground than the President," and
"to declaro, in effect, I am the State?"
If, during all this time, tho authority of the
military commander depended upon the Presi?
dent's construction of the Act, why did he not
do his duty and construe it? Why did he hand
over the people of 'these States to the mercy
and 4?scretjon. of a mere military usurpation ?
If, on the con trary, lija power of construc?
tion was only to be exercised in conformity
with some political necessity, what has occurred
to change the condition of things existing at
the passage of the act ? Whence did the mili?
tary commanders derive the construction which
they haye enforced, and why was not that con?
struction authoritatively correotod ? But not
only have the commanding officers the right to
complain that they have been betrayed by the
Government, but what is ourposition-the peo?
ple of these States ? We watched with painful
anxiety the debates on this bill-it was passed.
The commanding officers were appointed. What
was our duty ? To obey or to disobey them ?
Where did we look for information ? To the
President. We saw him exeoute the Act ; we
saw him appoint the commanders; we read
order after order, dealing with our most im?
portant interests, reversing our oldest establish?
ed laws, revolutionizing the whole frame work
of our State Government, but we heard no word
of disapproval, no reversal of these orders, no
interference in our behalf. Take, for example,
Order No. 10, which has, perhaps, interfered
more generally and more directly with the law
of the State than any other. If we had the
right to suppose for a moment that the Le?
gislature of the State would be allowed to
meet and to take charge of the interests
of the State, does any one doubtthat it
would have been assembled and called upon
to do its duty? But this order was issued
without the slightest manifestation of disap?
proval on the part of the Government, and we
naturally concluded that it was in the exercise
of a recognized authority. And under this im?
pression we have adapted our action to what
we conceived to be the law of the land, and
have proceeded in good faith towards the work
of reconstruction in the mode which we had
the right to believe was recognized as legitimate
by the Government. All this effort is now labor
lost.
But behind all this, t here is another question,
and ono of the most direct practical importance
to us. Who is right in this question of con?
struction, the Attorney-General or the Com?
manding General ? Putting technicalities
aside, which construction will prevail ? It is
#6fle than useless to disguise the issue wbum
if presented to us.
3 The President and Congress have been con?
tending for two years, and the result of the
contest has been the Reconstruction Act of
1807, which was tho defeat of the President.
Ia ' this construction of the Reconstruction Act
anything more than a renewal of this contest,
and have we any assurance that the President
will hot be defeated again ?
We have the Act; we have all the discussion
on the Act; we have the action and orders of j
the Commanding Generals under the Act; we
have tho opinions of the presa and of many of j
the leaders of the Republican party upon the
course of the Commanding Generals as a guide
to what is the opinion of the great mass of the
Northern people,Jas to what the Act meant, and
how it should be executed. Has any reasona?
ble man in the South any doubt that the North?
ern people, and more especially the Republican
party, which controls the present Congress by
a large majority, approve of the course pur?
sued by Generals SHKRIDAX, SCHOFIELD, POP?,
OBD and SICKLES ? Can any man have any!
doubt who pays any attention to the expression'
of public opinion ? What then is this deelam?
on the part of the Government but a renewal
of the old issue ? Ard what chance is there of |
any other result than the defeat of the Presi?
dent? Grant that thc opinion of the Attorney
General is unanswerable; what then 7 It will
only serve to secure a call of Congress in July;
and what will that Congress do? They will
either simply Bettie the construction of the Act
beyond a peradventure, by the requisite amend?
ments, or they will treat this attempt to avoid
it as a part of the plan of Southern action and
substitute another aot which will be more ex?
plicit and very much harsher.
Surely no one supposes that the military
commanders in authority will acquiesce in this
construction. If any one does, we may as well
state the fact that General SICKLES has already
asked to be relieved, and demanded a Court of \
Inquiry upon his conduct. Will the Republi?
can party who passed this Act, and who have
resolutely supported the action of the military
commanders, desert Gen. SICKLES in such a
case ? Will not the issue thus made become a
party issue, r.cd who is to pay the costs of the
controversy but our unfortunate selves ?
This is not the first time that we have been
made to pay for our confidence in the Presi?
dent. He undertook to restore us to the Union
if we would perform certain conditions. We
fulfilled them-have we been restored ? What
has he succeeded in doing that he has under?
taken to do ? Upon every occasion, from the
Convention between SHERMAN and JOHNSON to
the Reconstruction Aot, he has finally yielded,
and we alone have suffered from the resist?
ance. We have too much at stake now to re?
peat our errors. If the President undertakes
at this day-after permitting, without one word
of remonstrance or objection, the practical en?
forcement of. one theory7 of the Reconstruction
Act to reverse that theory, to prevent the exer?
cise of this extravagant claim of military author?
ity, and to remand the State to the control of its
own civil authority, let us at least have some
security that he will persevere in his action,
and that if, under the opinion of the Attorney
General, we refuse obedience to the usurpa?
tion of the military commanders, we shall be
held harmless for our conduct; (Lat if this con?
struction is repud?n t cd hy Congress, which Mr.
STANBKRY'S opinion will as certainly call to?
gether in July as if the summons had already
issued, wo shall not be held responsible for
the delay in the work of reconstruction, and
the Act will not be amended so as to bear more
harshly upon our rights and interesta.
There is another point worthy of our con?
sideration. If the Attorney-General's con?
struction is the right one, then Governor ORR
is the Governor of this State, and the present
Legislature has the necessary authority to
mako lawB for the State. Then the orders
which have been issued by Gen. SICKLES are
no longer of force. The confusion, the uncer?
tainty which will result from this slate of]
things no language can fully desoribe. If Or?
der No. 10 is not of force, then any creditor
may instruct the sheriff to enforce judgment.
Will the debtors of the State submit quietlyito
the sudden sacrifice of their property ? Mere
than that, every case of violence, every disturb?
ance, wo become responsible for, and it will be
absolutely necessary that the Legislature should
be called together at once to make some law
for the State. If any man in this State be?
lieves that good is to result from this condition
of things he possesses a power of vision which
we do not.
Whether the administration of Gen. SICKLES
has been wise or not, is a question into which
we do not at present enter. Much that he has
done we. think eminently wise-some things
which he has dono we would have had otherwise,
and whenever* that question comes up for dis?
cussion, we will express our opinion frankly,
and, we hope, justly.
But the question which is now raised is a
much larger one. We do not even undertake
to say that the opinion of Mr. ST AX BE ET it
not legally correct. All we say is, that
if it is, it ought to have been issued months
ago. That now, correct or not, it will surely
create mischievous excitement-will secure a
session of Congress in July-will give to the
discussion of that body a violence and bitter?
ness from which no good can result to us, and
interrupt the progress toward reconstruction,
which we were making quietly and surely.
The question raised by this opinion is the
old controversy between the President and the
Republican party. That controversy can do
us no good, From present appearances it can
end only one way. But at this time, and under
existing circumstances, any fixed and settled
policy on the part of the Government is better
than a vacillating course, whioh makes issues
to-day which it abandons to-morrow-which
excite hopes it cannot fulfill, and which only
provokes a resistance that cannot be effective
without its support, and whioh, when the time
comee, it has not the strength to support.
