Editor, The census enumerstors all over the land be- gim their work today. They have received their instructions. Now some for those who are to be enumerated. Treat the enumerators With politeness. They are not asking ques- tions for fan or curiosity. They are sworn of- ficers of the government and have families to support by the sweat of their brows, and this Weather will keep their brows busy. Answer their questions as far as you feel that you are warranted in doing. How old you are, your piace of nativity, your color, your sex, your wevious condition, married or single, how ¥ any children you have, widower or widow and Others of asimilar character. Further than that use your own judgment. But do not get angry abou! Or if you do, do not wreak Your vengeance on the poor enumerator. Say to him mildly though tirmly that you refuse to answer. That is enough. He will so record it eud the report will goto the general office, if anything is tobe done to you for Your rebellious, insurrectionary and seditious Conduct the whole power of government may be brought to bear upon you. In the mean- time, however, you may easily escape if you want toand there will probably be millions who will need to escape with yon, so you will net be lonesome. But do not try to escape. ‘Ihe United States will be no tyrant, and the | private affairs of yourself and your family will be held inviolate and all mquiries will lie down | to eternal repose before the door of the closet in which you ke With thes p your domestic skeleton. e instructions and the re- and be polite to and Frompt with the enumerator, you are hereby eit to his tender mercies, ————— {of Tue Stan] would be at the railroads, and es- more and Potomac, were | Ba’ seize the [istrict for a freight yard | aud the cepiial for # turntable.”— Washington | They have already seized large por- tions of East and South Washington for fe-e purposes; and if the general principle of | the Ackinsou bill prevails and the requests of the people for improvement of the railroad oc- pation are denied, the railroads’ illegal ap- pro; rations of public property confirmed and eviditional property and privileges granted thom, all without consideration, there seems te be no reason why they should not con- vert the entire city to their uses, if it should be Gesirable from the business point of view for them to do Should Congress approve the B. and Potomac’s illegal seizure of | Feservations 174, 178, 241, 346, &c.. as proposed | by the Atkinson b re is no reason why this road should fear disturbance in any other of gal occupations of public property or | why the Baltimore and Ohio should be uneasy in respect to ita illegal tracks. or why both | roads should not be encouraged to lay hands | ver they covet.
