I The president has finally prom
! ised to receive the anti Mahone re
publicans in Virginia, en June
eleventh. What 1 hey will accom
plish is easy to see—nothing. The
president is evidently inclined to
snub them and is simply putting
oil' the torture tor a-few days-.
Af a cbarck party held recently in
McDonough, Chenango' county, forty
young ladies were pat up at auction
and sold to the highest bidder. A
hayseed believed the sale was bcaa
fide and put up all bis cash, $7.49 on
the prettiest lady bid off. It iaok con
siderable perenasioa to convinea him
that be could not remove his purchase
to As paternal ratals.
She glided taio the office and quiet

‘'l have written a pees* oa ‘My
Father's Barn, and —’’
“Oh!” interrupted tag editor; with
extraoidinary suavity, “you don't
know how relieved I feel. A poem
written on your father’s barn. I was
afraid it w&s written on paper.”

To the Medical Picfession; —The
various medical assooiatioßS and the
isiQiiica! profession will be glad to learn
that Dr. Join 8. Eijlinge, surgeon [J.
S. A any, has cothseEtod to take charge
j of the report f the Mortality and Vi*
Ital Statistics, of the united States as
i returned by the eleventh cetssns.
Ati tb# tiritod States has no system j
of registration of vital t*titic9, aack i
as relied iif on by other civilized na- !
lions for tbs purpose of ascertaining
the aahia! wovoniect of populatiea,
car ceasns affords the only oppertaai
ty *f obtaiaiag near an approximate
sstais of the birth aad death rates of
much the larger part of the country,
whinh is entirely unprovided with any
; satisfactory eystera. of stale and muai
cipil registration.
la view of this, tho census office,
dmingtke month of May this year,
will issue to the medical profession
throughout tho country “Physician's
Registers” for tho pur. oss of cbtain
ing more accurate returns of deaths
than it is possible tor the e Burners
tors to make. It is earnestly hoped
that physicians in every part of the
country will eooperate with the een
ssa office in this important work. The
record should be kept from Jane 1,
1.889, to May 31, 1800. nearly 20,-
'OOO of these registrstiea books were
filled op and returned io tho offiea is
1880, and nearly all of them used for
statistical purposes. It is hoped that
double this number will be obt&isea
fer ilia eleventh census,
Physicians not receiving Ilsgioters
can obtain them by sending their
names and addresses to the Census Of
fice, and, with the Hsgister, an official
envelope which requires bo stamp will
bs provided for their return to Wash*
isgtoa,
If all mediae!, surgical practitioners
throughout tb country will lecd their
a,id, the mortality and vital statistics,
of the eleventh ecs.ivs will bo more
i eoasprehomsiv® and complete than they
hare eyar been, Every physician
i should taka a personal pride in having
| this report as full and accarata as i; is
possible to make it.
It is hereby premised that all iafor-
I rn&tioa obtained through this source
