There have been frequent inquiries of late as to the fcize of tbe districts over which each enumerator, acting under the supervisors of census, would have charge. We have published before som extracts from an official letter on the subject, but now reproduce th-?m. The letter is to the supervisors of tbe censns: 'In general, every town, township; military district r other perniatirut civil divi.- a of the country shou d ?e constitute-f o-enuraei-ation distiict, i: the , estiniiiUd population thereof exceeds sjvea or eight hundred inhabitants. The only reason which this office could recognize as sufficient for making such a civil division a part of a larger enumeration district would be the impossibi ity of securing a competent and trustworthy enumerator" within its own limits. The enumerationdistricJ n?ust be made small enough to secure the comple tion of tlie canvass within the limit set by the census law, viz: during the month cf June. To this end supervisors Jwill be expected to excrdthiir best jiidgtrect ingool f ai t fiA rn p I i a n ce with the law in this matter will i .iited' on.'
