Omissions in lite Census. The tables, says the National Intelligencer, re turned by the Marshals and filed in the Census of fice, profess to include the names of all persons re siding within the United States at the time of the enumeration, and it is important that these tables should be as correct, as the nature of the case will admit Appeals will be hereafter made to those records to ascertain facts of importance to families and individuals. References are now frequently made to the Census Bureau to ascertain from the ;- documents in the office, facts relating to the place of residence of families in 1790. In view of these -circumstances, the attention of all individuals who may have reason to think themselves overlooked by the assistant marshals is called to these facts, with a request that they will furnish to the super intendent of the census the name, age, color, sex, and condition, (free or slave,) and birth place of each member of the family, with their place of res idence on the 1st day of June last Lawyers in the United States.

Requiring the Treasurer of each County to attend at the place of holding elections in the sev eral townships, wards and boroughs of the Com monwealth, on or before a day to be fixed by law, for the purpose of receiving the State taxes from which a certain per centage, as determined by the Legislature, shall be retained by the County Treas urer, as his compensation for services, rendered the Commonweal tli. 3.

Mount Vernon. It is said that Mr. Washing ton, proprietor of the Mount Vernon estate, was I asked by the President, a few days since, the price at vdiich the United States Government could pur chase Mount Vernon for a Military Asylum ; and that the reply was, that for two hundred acres a round the' mansion, he would ask two hundred thousand dollars ! Mr. W. remarked that the of fer of two hundred thousand dollars had beeu made to him by private individuals, and that of course, he would expect the government to pay the same. The place will, at this price, remain in private hands instead of being the property, as it should be, of the American people.

They have no railroads in China, and the cost of the transportation of its tea over bad roads, some of it on the backs of men, 800 or 1,000 miles on an average, is equal to about one-eight of its value at the place of production. The Chinese and Hindoo live cheaply, and work for small wages. They perform much less lahor in a day than a negro well fed on the most substantial food, corn-bread and bacon. Taking thereforethe greater value of a day's work in America, the diminution in freight, and the cheapness and despatch of transportation over our railroads, the conclusion of the Doctor is, that'tea is to become a staple product of the Uni ted States. New Motive Power. An engine has been completed at the American Machine Works, in Springfield, (Mass.) in which air takes the place of steam as the expansive force. It is to be sent to the World's Fair. It is said to- work well, and shows that air can produce the same effect as steam, with one-twentieth part of the fuel, and less danger of explosion. A patent has been secured. If all this be true, the inventor must have found some new way of making available a force which has often been tried before, with no success to be compared w.ithsteam pawpr. :The -books of subscription for the capital stock of this Company were opened in Newton, on Fri day of last week, and about 2150 shares taken or a little over one fifth of the whole amount. The value of the stock taken here was aoout$108,000 of which Oliver Ames & Sons subscribed $25, 000: David Ryerson, 10,000; Joseph E. Edsall, 10,000; 'John I. Blair 10,000; Ebon Abers, $2, 500 ; and the residue was taken in sums of from 82,000 down to 250. About one hundred indi viduals, according to their means, becamesubscri bcrs, consisting of farmers, manufacturers, profess ional men, mechanics and traders. All classes and interests among us, have identified themselves with this important improvement: and thus the " ball is set in motion" under worthy and favorable auspi ces. The books on Monday were opened at Blairs town ; on Tuesday at Columbia ; on Wednesday at Lafayette, and on Thursday at Hamburgh. We have not heard the aggregate amount subscribed at the above places ; but feel confident that by this time (Friday) 100,000 have been added to the sum taken at Newton. We think the books will go out of Suscx and Warren, with at least half of the whole capital of 500,000 subscribed; and if that amount shall not be deemed our full share, it will, we hope, be handsomely increased when the books shall be returned to this State and opened for fur ther subscriptions. , Upon the whole, the enterprise appears to be em braced in full earnest, by our citizens; and our rmifirlnnnn is nmv nrnater than ever, the hills of Sussex and Warren, in lesss than two years, will be made vocal by the whistle of the Locomotive. Since writing the above, we learn that the Com missioners will hold an adjourned meeting at the Cochran House in this place, on Tuesday, the I5th inst, when the Books will again be opened for sub scriptions to the stock. The probability is that a Committee of the Board will offer the Books at other villages in the Coun ty, of which due notice will be given. To make the construction of this Railroad a per fectly sure thing, it is essential that our farmers, according to their means, should take Twenty, Ten, or Five shares of stock each. The notion that the work will bo readily accomplished, with out those Iwho arc most interested putting their own shoulders to the wheel, is a most pernicious one, and should not be entertained by any man who is able to pay for a single share of stock. Sussex Register. The die for the new three cent piece, ordered to be coined by the last Congress, the Phila. Ledger states, has been finished, and the coinage would be ' proceeded with at once at the mint, but for a defect , in the law, which makes no provision for procuring the silver and copper to commence with. In con sequence, the coinage will be delayed until the ' proper steps are taken by the authoities at Wash ! ington to remedy the deficiency. The new coin in size is between the gold dollar and the five cent I piece, but it is so much thinner than either that a ! blind man can easily distinguish them apart by the ' touch. The face of the coin has a capital C, with three numerals indicating the value of the coin . embraced within it. Around the edge areI3 stars for the original states. On the reverse is a star having m its centre an American smciu, ana a round the edge, "United States of America,. '51." IIORSE-FLESII AGAINST StEAM.

The British Cape colony, originally settled by the Dutch, but captured from them by the English, has an area of about 120,000 square miles, to a population of about 150,000. The population of Cape Town, the capital of Southern Africa, is up wards of 20,000. Graham's Town, near the eastern extremity of the colony, is the only, remaining one of any importance. Here arc stationed the Government troops, on the borders of Caffraria, for the protection of the frontier. From this point, to the northeast, extends the Kaffir ter ritory, following the line of the sea-coast. The Kaffirs are described by Hugh Murray, in his Encyclopedia of Geography, as extremely hand some in their external ri. , ...vwj pastoral in their habits. The men, especially, are ; tall and muscular, and the females, though less ' beautiful, possess features almost European, and vi vacious and intelligent eyes. Their skin is of a deep glossy brown color. The men are employed in raising cattle, and milk is the chief subsistence fcf all classes. A cow is never killed except on high occasions. Their king is said to have a force of 15,000 men constantly equipped for war, and, on urgent occasions, can arm 100,000 men, who, it is presumed, comprise the entire adult male popula tion. It is with these people, aided by the Hotten tots, that the British colonists are now contending, and with whom they have had some hard fighting, with nufavorable results. . A Mr. Callender, of York, Pa., died suddonlyin the. cars last week, on his way home from Harris burg, where he had just effected an assurance upon his life, of $5,000.

She brings 50 pas sengers. The political intelligence, general, possesses but little interest. The English Ministry was still in an uncertain state. From the Continent there is nothing of impor tance. At Liverpool, Cotton had advanced -Ad, with sales of the week of 42,3000 bales. Breadstuff's were firm, and in better demand. Provisions were advancing. The Manchester market was steady. The Havre Cotton market was firm. The ship Ivanhoe, reported ashore off' Montauk Point, was seen ashore on the round shoal of Nan tucket, on the 24th February, with all her sails set, by the Joseph Walker, at Liverpool. There is no doubt but that she has gone down with all on board. The debate on the Papal Agression bill was resumed on Thursday evening. In the early part of the debate a scene took place, which at one umu uiu luir to urmg uie uiscussion to an abruut luriiinuuiuu. Mr. Grummond, a member from Surrey, rose to address the House at about 9 o'clock, and spoke his mind pretty freely, whereupon the ultra mon taine members commenced a regular and organized system of interuption. Mr. Grummond, naturally irritated, gave utter- i : j.: , ancc to certain expression, regarding nunneries and muuum uniaviuo, uu wniun uiu uitrarmontists arose and shouted and shrieked, some running towards t,ie memDGr Ir(jm burrey, and threatening him with personal violence. A more outrageous scene of tumult was never witnesed within the walls of any public Assembly. It was finally, however, quelled and the debate proceeded with. The great speeches of the night were those of Sir James Graham and Lord John Russell. The latter gentleman distinctly avowed his continued adhesion to the Durham letter, and declared that further aggressions should be met by further meas ures. Sir James Graham opposed the bill, and consid ered the present measure uncalled for more espe cially as it was a penal enactment, and a reversal of our former policy. Incombustible Hemp Rope. The, St. Louis Republican contains a very interesting notice of the trial of incombustible hempen rope, recently made in that city. A piece of prepared rope and a piece of wire rope were put into a blacksmith's fire. The heat was intense enough to weld the strands of the wire rope together, whilst the hempen ropo was only slightly charred on the outside. Anoth er test was made : a piece of rope and a small bar of iron brought to a white heat; yet the cordage was but little, if any more effected by the fire than in the previous- experiment. Rhode Island Election'. The election in this State on Wednesday last, resulted in the defeat of the Whigs, in consequence of a local fued in the ranks growing out of .the recent election of a U. S. Senator. Philip Allen was chosen Governor by 600 majority, and Wm. B. Lawrence, Lieut Gov ernor by 250 majority both Locofoccs. George G. King (Whig) is elected to Congress in the Eastern District, and Benjamin B Thruston (Opposition) in the Western District. In the Senate, 13 Whigs and 14 Opposition are elected, and no choice in four towns. In the House, 25 Whigs and 31 Opposition are elected. In six towns there is no choice. Fowl Industry. By an essay on the latest .dis coveries and improvements in the breeding and general management of domestic fowls, we find that these little philo-progenitives turn their love of a family to some account: By the ceusus of '40, it appears that the value of this branch of produc tive industry amounted to nearly $'12,000,000. The value of poultry in the single state of New York was 2,373, 029; and it is estimated that the total value of poultry in the United States, at this time, is not far from $20,000,000. Reccipcfor Burns. Take lime water as strong as it can be made, and add to it as much alum as it will dissolve, after which add one ounce of sweet oil, which will turn it to a jelly, like opodeldoc, if the lime is strong enough. This should be kept by every family in a tight bottle in some place where it can not freeze, and should be immediate ly applied. A Mr. William Hoyt, of Indiana, says he has invented apian by wliich music of the softest and most pathetic character may be produced on steam boats by the agency of steam. It appears that the steam is made to operate upon a number of pipes, placed across the boilers of the boat, furnished with certain whistles that are governed by a set of keys by which the steam is let on or shut off' at will. The Potato Rot. It has been stated that Mr. John T. Snyder, of Franklin, Bergen County, in this State, professes to have discovered an effectu al remedy for the potato disease, and that he has applied for the premium of $10,000, offered by the State of Massachusetts for the discovery of a rem edy. His plan is to scatter a handful of ashes a round each vine upon the first appearance of the disease. Seamless Bags. A Mr. Adams in Manchester, N. H., has invented a machine for weaving ba"-s without seams." The machinery is said to be verv simple, and can be adapted to every description of bags, from a bed tick to a shot ba. Potatoes. Several arrivals from France, at different American ports, have brought large quan tities of French potatoes, reported to be of an excel lent quality; and even some cargoes from the same fertile couutry have, we observe, reached Ire land. To think of Ireland and the United States importing potatoes and from France, too ! What a lesson to our American agriculturalists. A Tiew Epidemic. A friend of ours went home to dinner from his place of business, the other day, in his usual state of health. His appetite was good, his pulse even, and his digestive powers unimpaired. Scarcely had he taken the first mouthful of soup, however, before he discovered that it possessed an unusual saccharine flavor. He set his plate aside and tried the fish; it was decidedly a sweet shad. He had no better luck with his roast beef and vegetables. Ev erything he tasted became sweet, and he at lait gave up in some alarm, and started to consult his family physician in relation to these extraordinary symptoms. The medical man looked at his tougue, felt his pulse and tried the other usual tests, with out reaching the cause of his disorder. He looked puzzled ; but at last a happy thought struck hinr "My friend," said he, "there is a superabundance of saccharine particles in your blood. The symp toms is very unusual and alarming. It is a case of hedurepsis." Hereupon, with a grave face, he wrote an imposing prescription and delivered it to our friend who posted off to commence his course of cure. Next day, fortunately, there was no re turn of the symptoms ; because in the meantime the powdered sugar had been poured out of the salt cellar. N. Y. Tribune. A Woman's Vengeance. About I o'clock P. M. yesterday, a woman came to the brass lamp manu factory of Mr. William Carlton, on Beach St., and inquired what time a young female employed in the shop of Mr. Carlton in polishing brass work would return from dinner.Soon after the girl in quired for made her appearance. The strange wo man immediately confronted her and threw the con tents of a bottle of sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol) in her face, destroying her eye-sight, and pealing the skm and flesh completely of her face. The agony endured by the girl was painful to witness. eShe was immediately conveyed to her home in Hudson st, and medical aid called in. The object of the fiendish woman is said to have been the gratifica tion of her revenge and jealousy. The girl has not been able to speak since the affair. Boston Mail, 1st.
