    The Seventh Census.
The population of the United States in 1850 has
been considerably overrated by most of the esti
mates of the present year. The total population
of the United States on the lot of,inne, 1950, was
about 29,000,000 ; showing en increase during the
preceding ten years of a little less than 5,000,000
or about SG per cont. The number of represents
tivoa is fixed by law at 233; so that the ratio of
Representation is likely to ho under rather than
over 94,000. The representation of the several
States under the new census will compare with
that under the present as follows:

The Death of Hem.
The reported lleatli of Bent in Turkey is corn
firmed by letters from Allcppo. Bem's sickness
was neither very long or ;mink, ; a month before
his death he was riding out. Some slight at
tacks of fever gave him no anxiety; and he could
not be persuaded to take any medicine until three
or four days before his death. Ile was buried
with military honors, a thing unusual in Turkey.
The English and French Consuls attended the
funeral. He was 56 years old.
Distressing Accident.
At Richmond, on Wednesday evening, while
the public guard was firing a salute, the horses
attached to a buggy, containing Col. Tostus and
another member of the Virginia Legislature, took
fright, tiii.owing the gentlemen out and slightly in
juring them. The horses kept ahead, and dashing
on the payment, ran over Mr. Join; RUTllunronD
and Miss BETSY COLES, injuring the former
slightly, but breaking the collar•hone and two ribs
of the latter lady, and causing other serious in
juries.
65 'A violent storm of wind and rain passed
over Cambridge (Md.) on Monday afternoon last.
It swept nearly every thing beibre, it, uprooting
trees, laying fent.; flat, unroofing several houses,
among which was the court house, of a tin roof,
which had been on about four years, and one end
of the dwelling of Dr. Wm. H. Muse was blown in
besides a number of sheds, stables, &c. were blown
to pieces.
Counterfeit Half Dollars.
Spurious half dollars, to a considerable amount,
tune been put in circulation in some of the cities
of the West. They are of the emission of 1643,
tolerably well excuted, though, upon close ex
amination, the face of the female will be found im
perfect. They are lighter than the genuine, and
have the letter C on the revers 6 which the gen
uine have not.
