Census enumerators in Pennsylvania have
discovered that thousands of workers In
that State are without names. They are

inconcelveablethat such a codlllon of things

be poor, Ignorant aud unfortunate, but they
are free worklngmtrbe practice of des
troying tbelr tndlymualltles under the con

From the Phlla. jPri, 26th Inst.
The ticket nominated at Uarrlsbnrg yea
tf rdy Is one which all Republicans can
support. That It Is the strongest which the
convent ion could have submitted to the peo
ple we do not believe, but a majority of
80,000 Is mighty and must prevail.
That Senator Delamater will make nn
able and efficient Governor no one ques
tions. The opposition to him was bated
almost wholly on doubts of his ability to
rally tho full Republican vote. Now, that
the convention has In a manner resolved
these doubts, we look to see all tho candi
dates and their friends turn In and give him
their hearty allegiance. The success of the
Republican party Is of far more conse
quence than the political fortune of any
individual, and It is only when this it fully
realized and accepted by every division of
the party that Its success Is assured.
The nomination of Louis A. 11'atres for
Lieutenant Governor Is an acceptable and
strong nomination In Itself, and Insures the
Senate an experienced parliamentarian in
its chair during such tiroes as the Lieuten
ant Governor shall see fit to preform the
duties of that position. The rcnoralnatlon
of the present efficient Secretary of Intern
al Affairs, Thomas J. Stewart, was unop
posed, and completes a ticket on which the
Republicans of tho State may be expected
to unite cordially after the ilrst feallng of
disappointment on the part of friends of
rival claimants has abated. The utmost
good will seems to have prevailed in the
convention an earnest of good feeling and
harmony with which the party at large
may be excepted to receive the convention
work of yesterday.

HOW MANY WORDS IN TNGLI8H.
Katlmt'" ' llin.'ioiil Aitflmi ltle and a
I (impai Nun of It i ion.irl.-H.
An Inti reti'-s iipk'ii n Mijsgv-ted by
an Biuient wmf of a lnwik i the number
of Kii'liih wmds imw existing. Con
Itd.iralile diflVivmvi of opinion exists on
tlila point. Mi. Oeir;;o I. Marsh, an
American author of repute, in his "Lec
tures on the English Language," esti
inHts that the nnml., , mi S(11) "prob
ably does not lull i-Uort of IDD.lKHi;" and
Invite mlditioiiH, t-si,'t'i:illv in art and soi
encBj, have eo'ne into use since Hint ditto.
Other wi iters, however , come to a uiner
eut conclusion, a, id Hunk that 40.000 J
would include the whole. It depends a
good deal on how calculations are made.
If nil the subsidiary wordsparticiples
and the like are to be taken into ac
count, it will swell tho sum totnl very
considerably.
Taking the first three wonts that oo-
enr at random, we find that from "dem
onstrate," In one of our modern diction
aries, there are thirteen derivatives!
from the word " bright " there are
twelve, nnd from "deplore" there nro
ten. There is also redundance in other
forms. In one of Todd's editions of Dr.
Johnson thera are upward of eighty
words with the prefix "all" nll-oomply-ing,
all-divining, nll-ilrmvwy, and so on
a very notable instance of dictionary
padding. In ways like these the vocab
ulary may be indefinitely increased.
Probably if wo take lending words and
all their derivatives, the number at the
present time will exceed Mr. Marsh h es
timate. An approximate verification
of this may be found by multiplying the
number of pages in any good modern
dictionary by the average number of
words in a page.
Shakespeare s works, it is believed, in
clude about "15,000 separate words, ami
Milton's about 8,000; but from these fig
ures we have no criterion of the extent
of the actual English vocabulary. It may
be mentioned here that while Oookeram
has only nbotit 7,000 or 8,000 words,
there are in Bailey's Dictionary approx
imately about 80,000, and in Johnsou's
not more than that. In somo of the
larger modern works, again, the figures,
as has been said, reach to upward of
100,001).
In Dr. Johnsons vocabulary many
technical and aoientiflo terms were omit'
ted, nnd in his originnl preface he ex
cuses himself in a very naive and char
acteristic fashion. "I could not," he guys,
"visit caverns to leuni tho minor a lan
guage, nor take a voyage to perfect my
skill in the dialect of navigation, nor
visit the warehouses of merchants and
tho shops of artificers to gain the names
of wares, tools and operations of which
no mention is found m books. An ad
verse critlo might bo inclined to ask
Why not? But, all iho same, it will be
readily conceded that he did a great
work according tohislights. Tho science
of philology hns been revolutionized since
Ilia day, out his labors largely contrib
uted to tho earlier stages of its progress.

Wouilerful Surgory.
At the surgical congress at Berlin Pro
fessor Uluck, of Berlin, gave au exhibi
tion showing a most valuable advance
In surgery namely, the successful sub
stitution of catgut, ivory and bone freed
from chalk for defects in bones, muscles
ana nervo smews. The juices of the
body are sucked up in the inserted ma
terial, thereby establishing the junction
or tne separated ends, without any short
ening of the part. He presented the
cases of patients in whom there had
been an insertion of from six to ten centi
metres of catgut to supply defects in tho
leaders of tho hands, to which complete
mobility had been restorod. This case
had previously been impossible. In the
case of another patient Professor Gluck
removed u tumor fi 'om tho thigh, caus
ing a considerable defect in the bone,
He inserted ivory, and no shortening en
sued. In another caso he removed t
large pleco of nervo in tho groin and in
serted catgut, and the functions re
malned completely satisfactory. Thesa
are considered wonderful achievements,

A Useful Cement.
The following mixture lias been used
with the greatest possible success for the
cementing of iron railing tops, iron
gratings to stoves, Mc, : in fact, with such
effect as to resist the blows of a sledge
hammer. This mixture is composed of
equal parts of sulphur and white lead,
with about one-sixth proportion of borax,
the three being thoroughly incorporated
together, so as to form one homogeneous
mass. When the application is to be
made of this composition it is wet with
strong sulphuric acid.nndu thin layerof it
is placed between the two pieces of iron,
these being at once pressed together. In
five day it will be perfectly dry, all
truces of the cement having vanished,
andtheworU having every appearance
of welding. Hull's Journal of nealth.
