The Work of the New Census,
A Washington corres ipondent writes ;
Few people who see the returns of the
late census have an idea of the magni
tude of the work of taking and publish
ing the same. The conntry was divided
into 150 districts, over each of which
was placed a supervisor to direct the
work. The supervisors selected the
enumerators, and there were of these
31,850. One hundred and fifty-seven
persons were emplove d as interpre ters.
The preliminary work of getting the to.
tal count and the population of cities
is finished and has been published. The
census burean, under General Francis
A. Walker, is pushing the work of com-
piling the census, and the indications
are that this vear will see it finished.
General Walker more of 4 business
man than the average government offi-
cial. He will not nurse the job. Con.
gress gave him diseretionary power, and
he showed his tact, Lustesd of having
one high-priced politician, he hires two
clerks, thus pushing the work to an early
completion and saving money. On the
first of February the commissions of over
J00 clerks expired, and all were reap-
pointed but eightee n, who were inefli-
cient. The force in the census burean,
including all grades, now numbers 1,364,
of which 610 are females. The average
monthly outlay 18 $45,000,

A Cunning Caf,
A gentleman who took a trip from
Carson City, Nev,, into the country,
when on the plains, a mile from any
house, noticed a cat, a huge one, almost
large as a fair-sized dog. It was
lying upon the ground, its feet upper-
most, in such a way that he had no
doubt that it had fallen a victim to
some vicious dog. Around it, feading
unsuspectingly, was a flock of young
birds. The apparent lifeless eat was
within range of the vision of the ob-
server for some time, and just when
he was thinking how much easier it
would be foran animal to feign death
and cateh a bird by deceiving it than by
slipping up to it, Le was astonished to
see the cat suddenly roll over and grab
one of the feathered tribe that was very
near. The other birds flew away a hun-
dred yards or so and alighted.
only made one or two mouthfuls of the
game,
windward of the birds, laid itself
again, and once more played success
fully the dead dodge. The gentleman
drove away without seeing how wany
birds it took to satisfy the febine,

Bibliomania.
Bibliomania originated in the Nether-
lands at the elose of the sixteenth cen-
tury, whence it spread to England,
raging violently there, and more recent.
ly appearing in France and this coun.
try, The Bible has attracted any num-
ber of collectors. The British museum
has the largest lot of different editions,
thongh the late James Lenox,
founder of the Lenox library in New
York, nearly equaled it. The highest
price ever paid for a single volume was
at the sale of the Duke of Roxburghe's
library in London (1812), when the
Marquis of Blandford, in a spirited
competition with Lord Spencer, paid
for a copy of the first edition of the
* Decameron,” published at Venice by
Valdarfer in 1471, a sum nearly equal
to $11,300 of our money. When the
marquis’ library was put up at auction,
Lond Spencer tried again, and secured
the precious tome for about $4,600,
about $6,000 less than he had bid-
den seven years before. Nasser
ed-deen, Shah of Persia, has an
of the ** Arabian Nights” on
wihich artists worked under his special
d rection for ten or twelve vears, until it
cost $100,000. Henri Boulard, literary
executor of La Harpe, spent a fortune
in buying editions of Racine. Soleinnes
gathered all the dramatic pieces that
had ever been presented, going so far
as to purchase books in languages
which he could not read. A well
known New Yorker gave, some yoars
since, $2,600 for a copy of the Mazarin
Bible, supposed to have been printed in
14656. The favorite books of biblioma-
nines have been Delphini and first edi.
tions of the classich, editions that ap-
peared in the infancy of typography,
Aldus ; Comino, of Padua; Bodoni,
Mattaire, Fonlis, and Bardou. There is
no end to the vagaries of book fanciers.
The defects of volumes became as great
wi inducement to ownership as any
beauties, Dibdin (Thomas F.,) who
for rare and curious books, has pub-
lished a volume on the subject, ot La
Bruyere has, in his ‘‘Caracteres,” a
chapter exclusively devoted to them,
Oddly enough, the passion seems to be
increasing throughout civilization.

Camel's Hair
For some five or six years i, says
1 quanti-
tien of camel's hair have been shipped to
this country to seek o market, and it
has been utilized in several ways, but |
not to such an extent as bas been usu.
ally imagined. Camel's hair consists of
soveral grades qualities, from the
wool that lays close to the animal's hide
to the long, shaggy hair which covers
portions of the body, All this hair or |
wool is sheared from the animal the
sme as wool is from sheep, and packed
in bales for tmusportation. Heretofore *
all this material has come from Western
Asia, Arabia and Persia, from whence it |
was sent westward through Russia to |
mostly to Liverpool and London, from
whence it found its way to all parts of
The fiber, though long, is |
coarse and strong, and makes dress
goods for winter wear of a somewhat |
rough and shaggy appearance. It is
only woven into cloth, however, with a
wool body, us its texture would not ad-
mit of its being used alone. The coarser
Lair and the wool whieh accompanies it |
are used in the manufacture of carpets, |
and are found well adapted for that |
purpose. Though popular to a certain
extent, the use of camel's hair in the
United States has been quite limited;
but an effort is now making to import it |
in larger quastities, and to find new |
uses for it. The importations bereto- |
fore through Russia have been expen
sive, but recently large quantities Pen
been obtained from Chins, and recently |
the first invoice, consisting of one ton,
started from Bt. Louis overland, Oces-
sionally small lots have mirived from
China in sailing vessels around Cape
Horn; but the trade in this way has
been so insignificant that no notice Las
been taken of it, and the chief supply
has, up to the present, been had by way
of Europe. Now, however, it is found
that the direct trade with Chins is
profitable, and every port will be made
to foster it, Since tho first of the year
the arrivals of camel's hair frow all
ever before, and as the thread is
thought well of, some new uses will be |
found for it.
