District Attorney Adams, of Lebanon
county, lias been placed in possession of a
confession which clears up the horrible
story of the murder of old farmer Miller,
of Lebanon county, which took place two
years age. The old man was knocked off
his horse and murdered near Schaeffers-
town, and then robbed of six hundred
dollars. He was en his way from home te
a neighbor's te whom he intended te pay
the money. His dead body was found
lying in the mud. A young man named
Risser was tried for the crime and acquit
ted. District Attorney Adams new has
a confession, made in the Lebanon jail,
which shows that two masked men did the
deed. One knocked Miller off his horse
and the ether clubbed him te death. The
money was divided by the pair. The
names of the assassins have net yet been
made public.
the matter of giving the information asked
for by the law. Every person ever twenty
years of age belonging te any family, in
an enumerator's district, is required by
law te give census information, if request
ed te de se by the enumerator, supervisor
or superintendent, and is punishable by
fine for refusing te de se.
Among the personal and family matters
about which the enumerators are required
te ask heads of families, or in their ab
sence, the nearest accessible persons ever
twenty years of age, who can give the in
formation, are the following : Name, age,
sex, color, and place of birth of every per-
ou uvremug in lueueuse or witn uie lam
ily ; the trade, profession or occueation of
every adult male ever fifteen years of age,
and whether the adults are married, wid
owed or single and if married, whether
married within the year; also the school
attendance of the children within the
year ; what members of the family (if any)
ever twenty years of age who are unable
te read and write ; whether persons in the
family are employed or unemployed, and
during what portions of the year ; what
relation each person in the household bears
te the head of the hense; the place of
birth of the parents of each person enum
erated, and the mental and physical health
ei eacu person, whether active or disabled,
married, crippled, bedridden, deaf, dumb,
blind, insane or idiotic.
Seme of these are close questions, con
cerning matters that most people de net
care te talk about te strangers ; but, when
it is considered the communications are
needed by the government for its uses, and
are made confidential by law, there should
be no hesitancy in giving them freely te
the enumerators. In matters of business,
naue, agriculture, manuiactures, com
cock, and think him a great man, but this
country wants civilian, net military
rulers."
Fifth. An Eastern man for the head of
the ticket supposes a Western man for the
second place, and there is a very general
feeling that Mr. Morrison, of Ulneis. would
be the best man for this place. lie has
been a consistent and unllinching hard-
money Democrat. He served with honor
in the army and he is very popular in his
state, and Illinois is one of theso states
which, if the ex-president is nominated,
the Democrats hope te carry.
Finally, the Democrats are net quarrel
ing among themselves, and they see
clearly that te succeed they must nominate
a ticket which will secure at ence. and
without argument, the confidence of the
best sentiment of the country. "What
we need is te nominate a ticket which shall
deserve the support of these Republicans
who de net want te vote for the ex-president,"
said a Western Democrat te your
correspondent te-day, "and most of our
people are agreed upon this." This is the
Democratic situation in brief, as it appears
here.

merce, mining, railroading, ether trans
portation, insurance, expressing, telegraph
ing, and kindred subjects, the inquiries
take a bread range, and in some respects
the information te be thus collected will be
an improvement en all former censuses.
This, it may be repeated, is guarded
in the same way as te its privacy as
family matters arc. The enumerators are
bound by oath, and under severe penalties
of find and imprisonment, te reveal it te
no one, except in their eilicial reports te
ellicial superiors, and they are bound in
the same way. There are previsions also
for collecting the valuation of real and per
senal estate, by aggregates from towns
cities and counties ; the aggregates of taxes
assessed for all purposes ; the number of
colleges, academies, schools of all
kinds and school funds; the num
ber, character and condition of public
libraries; statistics of newpapers and
periodicals ; the seasons and the crops ;
prices of labor; matters relating te religious
worship ; and of pauperism and crime.
Seme of this, as well as much that relates
te mortality, railroads, telegraphs, insur
ance, &c, taxes, valuation and real estate,
is te be get through corporate authorities
or ether agencies outside of the enumer
ators. All of it is important for govern
ment purposes, and should be given
promptly and cheerfully te these author
ized by the law te make the inquiries and
collect the information.
Killed by sMllacTrte.
Jeseph P. Irwin, living, in Loyalsock
township, opposite the Chester county
peer neuse was killed ey being caught

When the tree was about te fall, Irwin

Prepare for the Census.
Philadelphia Ledger.
On Thursday, June 1st, the census takers
begin their work throughout the United
States ; and all of them -arc te have their
returns completed en or before the first day
of July. In cities, however, they are te
have their work finished up within two
weeks aftere the first of June. This is a
much shorter time then has been hitherto
allowed for census work in this country,
though it is quite sufficient for the cities,
seeing that in Great Britain the whole duty
is done in one day. People, therefore, may
as well be thinking ever the matter, and te
that extent preparing for it. The officers
of the census who call at dwellings are
called "enumerators." Each of them
is authorized by law te make the inquiries
and get the answers inquired by
the law ; each of them will have a duly
executed commission, and is under oath te
de his duty faithfully, and is subject te
penalties of fine and imprisonment if he
does net. The answers he gets from heads
of families or business men, or from these
who act for them, are confidential cemmu
nicatiens, and are net te be divulged te
any one except his official superiors, and
these are under the same oath and subject
te the same penalties if they make unau
thorized communications concerning the
answers they get in the line of their duty.
The making of false returns by the enu
merators or "supervisors" is also punish
able by fine and imprisonment.
These previsions of the census law are
mentioned te remind the public that while
the government provides for making in
quiries as te personal matters for the pur
pose of enlightening the law-making powers
in the exercise of their duties, it takes care
that information of a personal nature or
touching individual business shall net be
revealed by the officers employed te col
lect it. Fer this, as well as- ether reasons
the census takers should be aided and ex
pedited in their duties. Census statistics
arc capable of being used te the highest
advantage of the people as guides te leg
islation, and, indeed, there is a wide range
of subjects upon which there can be no
intelligent and possibly no safe legisla
tion without such statistics collected at
short intervals. The law also imposes du
ties en heads of families and heads of busi
ness houses or their authorized agents, in
am new fi
into them. Moses is net a witness aciinst
me in any of these charges. lie has
written me in behair of Reading, and
I have given him a letter, as he
requested, but of course you knew better
what te de. I thought his letters
meant something. Well, I have net writ
ten until I felt safe. It is certainly all
rigm nere. i nave nau a a long interview
with Humphreys a judge of the district
court appointed by President Grant, and
he fully understands the case, and will de
what is necessary. If it were net for the
fuss I would send en a requisition. It
would stump them badly te be beaten.
Butler wrote me none would be tent and
se did Bacen, but that the attorney cren-
eral would notify me by letter of
the finding of the indictment which
he has done in a very respectful
letter, and ask me te netifv him liv
the 20th whether I will appear voluntarily
without requirins a rcauisitien. I will r
ply en Monday, very respectfully declining
te go, and we will then see whether he
will issue. Melten was here, en route
home, en Monday, and said he would find
out all about it when he gotheme. He tele
graphed me last evening that they were
afraid and never would send for me. He
said he would be sure before telegraphing.
The newspapers here insist that they will
but of course they want that.
I new feel perfectly easy and happy
since I saw Judge Humphreys yesterday,
and don't care a damn. Captain Patter
son was authorized by Governer Hartranft
te teiegrapn me te go ever there and all
would be safe. He writes me this morn
ing that the matter was talked about at the
convention among the leaders, Den Cam Cam
eeon, Kemble, Mackey and ethers, and
said 1 ought te go ever there and defy
Hampton and his crew. Se come what
may I am all safe and will be senator until
4th of March, 1879. Trescott says he and
E varts talked it ever ; that Evarts says they
can't take me and that it was all wrong;
that he likes me and would de anything
he could for me. Sherman sent for me te
his house in his carriage and talked about
it, and said I must stand up aud that they
would help me all they can, and hooted
at the idea of their taking me en a requisi
tion. The feeling is certainly getting
strong in my favor and I am srtisficd new
it will net hurt me, but will make me a
semi martyr. I am glad it is ever, as I
new consider it is, and I don't care hew
seen they send en their requisien.
The Democratic Presidential Situation.
Washington Correspondence Xew Yerk Her-
U1U.
' In a little ever thirty days mere the
Democratic convention will meet at Cin
cinnati, and while the Republican quarrel
engages the public attention se entirely
that their opponents are almost forgotten,
the Democrats are net idle. There have
been constant informal conferences here
between Eastern, Western and Southern
men, and seveial conclusions seem te be
fairly well established out of these inter
change of opinions.
First. The Western and Southern mim
agree that the candidate ought te be an
Eastern man.
Second. They favor cither Governer
Seymour, if he will accept, or Senater
Bayard, for whom it is understood that
Massachusetts will ask. Senater Randelph
of New Jersey is regarded by a geed many
Western and Southern men as the next
man te Bayard if the latter should net
carry. Judge Church was highly thought
of, and his sudden death is generally
mourned here.
Third. It is taken for granted that Mr.
Tilden will net be a candidate.
Fourth. A military candidate finds little
favor. A prominent Western Democrat
