Tun. special agents who were re cently sent down f-om Washington to Investigate our State census have made a report as to three of the townslhips In which, from the large percentage of increase, fraud was susIpected. In Willistoin Township, Barnwell, they report a gain of fifty-four over the June ceilus, inl Steeri penl Township, Chesterfield, a loss of ten, and in Broad River, Lexington, a gain of n1)inety-t wo, making a not gain inl the three townships of, one himhe(ld alid thirty-six.

Amoroeqt, Cotton M1nsajfetmtor of the Fei sttre--Stem and Water Power Compared. Correspondence New York lierald. ATLNTA, GA., November 80, 1880. There ard some 10,00,000 cotton spinleA operated In the Union. I) I the year 1900, only nineteen years away, there will be 20.000,000 neIeded, because the increase of population and exportation of American goods will demand them. The population, as as- < certained by the recent census, is, In round numbers, 60,000,000. In 1870 It was 88,000,000, an1 Increase of thirty one and a half per cent. in tn years. The same rate of increase for the next T two decades will make it 86,000,000. To sustain this estimate let me suggest that fromn 1790 to 1820, and for each succeeding period of thirty years, the e "Compendium United States Census"' shows an average increase of over one hundred and forty per cent. This ratio applied to the 88,000,000 of 1870 gives us over 90,000,000 In 1900-thir-' ty years later. So it appears that twenty years hence we may expect a population nearly double that of the p eselit year as just ascertained. Eveni it this estimate of population fails, the increased tendency of the people I toward man uthotires will compensate for the smaller number of the popula tion. Will not two pounds of cotton goods be required fron the United StAtes mills In 1900 for one pound now produced? It this is correct, 20,000, 000 of spindles will be required. Dur lig the interval of nIlneteen years nost of the spindles now in use' will be worn out or otherwise destroved. Let us say that 6.000,000 must be re placed. iad 10,000,000 more must be suliplied-ini all 15,000,000, wi.h all their preparatory and following ma chiner-befoIre the end of this cen tury.

Why n this? Simply because we can spin s well as ally other spimers and nore cheaply. It It were not so vould these skillful and thrifty people my of us? As we increase the pro luction of yarns more and more mills vill be started North to consuine themi, md as Northern weavers learn more md more to depend upon us for their vpplies wo will, before long, be spin dng flner numbers of yarns, and then lie spinners of tie North must go to 0's, 80's and 100's. ve will soon, Irobablv, compete with the North tin Saintict uring priit cloths, to be wiited Ithere Into tle exquisite cali oos they nlow make.

It is a man having the head of a donkey on his shoulders. It almost always hap pens that nonstrosities born ot either women or aninals die shortly after birth, if born slive at all, but tiis is an exception to the rule, for the subject of this article is alive now, and is thirty years oil. The name of the un.. fortunate cresture is George VolN. When visited by our reporter, savs the Enquirer, the cripple stared at lim in an unpleasant way and began to kick violently, as though lie Were tryli to get at the stranger, the while~ his hands, or what correspond to a human being's handsa, pounded each other with 1ightial rapidity and apparent viciousiess. The reporter fisnally be-, camne stificiently at ease to mike a close observation, and lie saw that the face of the cripple was as near the* shape of a donkey as could be, the only feature that at all approached the shape of the genus homo being the nose. This was noticed to be more promi nent thanl that of a genuine specimen of the donkey, but the outline was ex actly the same. The mouth could not bie told from a donkey's, and wnen it: observing the upper part of the face and the head, the resemblance was ex not. The head is very large and near ly square like the doikoy's. It is cov cred with coarse black hair, as stiff and straight as ever seen on the animal referred to. The eyes are the eves of a dikey to perfection; but the most perti'ect resemblance to the animal are the ears. They stand straight up and run out o aisharp peak, in the exact shapo yof the ears of the donkey. They are about three inches long, but are not covered with hair. The expres sion-the lower portion of the face-is covered with a short growth of hair, which is sheared by the mother at regular intervals. The body of the cripople is also covered with a growth of long, stiff, coarse hair. The reporter, noticing the fact tht the upper >aift of the head between tihe ears w Inuch lurger than the lower part, at first .thought this was due to the growth of hair. In order to satiqfy iimself on this point he. aFh i vanced tow-ard George to . plae ~his; hands upngima..lihead. As soon as he I grot .wlthr imge.:rcced a couple ot'vicious *k~n4 f:om-ouie of the -mmy~ at the same tije -anid -she also was kicked. The reporter, however, suc cCCeded in getting hisa hands on George's head and founid that the shape nioticed 'was the shape of tihe skull and was not caused by the hair. All of the hairs grow upward. As the visitor stood looking at the object be fo:re him, it kept swinging its head from side to) sid e, and the exturession of the face was preciselv fliat of' the donkey. George connot talk at all. ile makes no sound that approeches to the human speech. George's niothier informed the re porter that he had sutlicienmt intelli gence to coraprehend enough to have his~ wants su pplied, which were few. lie expressed a wish for a drinik or somnet h ng to eat by signs. George's hands were mentioned above. There are really no hands, but the stumips of: three or four fluger~s in the aggregate are attached to what would he the hands if he were a perfectly' formed hmm'n being. The sho(ulder~s are very narrowv and the spinal column is no(t snificiently' strong to cinable George to. stanid up loung at a time. He crawvls wh~en lie wishes to miove about. One of lisa legs is that of a human, but the other is shapeless. George is power less to wvag his ears. He eats the ord inary food t hat -is served on t he table. Airs. Volz stated that his ap petite wvas good, usually, and that he was allotted a place at the family board. Sometimes he refused to eat. the substantial food of an every day meal, and lhe was then fed on cake or some other delicacy. E. R. STOKES.
