A visit toour beautiful cemetery can
not but impress one with tho great im
provement that has taken place in it
iu the last few years. This change is
due to Mr. W. L. R?ord who intro
duced the artistic marble work from
the San Francisco establishments that
are furnishing Italian marbles at lesi
ian American stone has been costing
as. Among the noticable pieces of
work are the Boddy monument, the
olegant tablet to the memory of Wood
ford Reames; that to Mrs. Wrijht, the
exquisite little stone nat shows the
resting place of little Mab Turner and
a number of similar gems that have
been lately erected. Mr. Record is at
present connected with the houses of
Ed. McGrath and McCormick, in San
Francitco and has succeeded in build
ing up an extensive trade in Northern
California and Southern Oregon which
lio intends increasing by every legiti
mate means. He expects to make
Jacksonville his head quarters and will
establish a yard hero early in the
spring which will bo in charge of a
first class marble cutter and carver.
This will enable parties to get work'
done in the best syle but monuments
to the memory of loved ones should bo
durable and, after all, the foreign mar
ble is not only tho most eleeant and
enduring but the cheapert. Mr. Rec
ord is now Cllinc; orders in Northern
California but persons desiring to
reach him at 728 Market St. San
Francisco can receive prompt answers.
ISIr. Record is deserving of patrontge
and we hope for the sake of the con
tinued ornamentation of our "City of
tho dead" to see him receive it. lie
lias labored iard for three years to
build up a business and hopes by
superior work and fair prices to con
trol it and we believe he will. At all
events he is entitled to great credit and
his work speaks for itself.

The New York "Herald" in a late
issue has published a very interesting
resume of the census. It shows brief
ly that the nation contains 50,153,
782 people, of which number 43,475,
480 are native born on the soil.
There are 881,857 more males than
females. The whites number 43,
402,970; the colored G.GS.TOS, the
Chinese 105,488; the Japanese 148;
the civilized Indians CG.407. The
census takers dare not bother with
ApacheB. Of the 7,000,000 foreign
ers 37 per cent are German, 35 per
cent Irish. The Germans will always
outnumber the Irish, but there need
be no alarm about vacancies on the
police force as their number will not
drop below 2,430,000. Pennsylvania
has tho greatest number of public
schools 17,019 but New York
spends nearly $3,000,000 more for ed
ucational purposes. Illinois owns the
most live stock; value S132,G37,7G2.
Missouri has the greatest nuirber of
mules, owning not less than 193,027
of these democratic appendages. New
York leads tho list of cow owners,
. butter and cheese makers and milk
producers, the figures being 1,437,
855 cows, 111,822,423 pounds, of but
ter, 8,3G2,590 pounds of cheese, and
231,965,583 gallona of milk. It also
raises the greatest quantity of potatoes
33,G44,S07 bushels. Ohio owns 4,
907,480 sheep, and Iowa '0,035,310
hogs, hich arc the highest Ggures,
and Illinois tops the horse owners
with 1,023,072 head. There are 91,
977 lunatics in the country.
Tho adjustment of salaries of post
masters, of presidential clashes, has
just been completed by the postoffice
department, The readjustment- effects
tho - salaries of 2170 pof...-Uo.
Forty-four office? ha e beca added to
the presidential list and twenty-five
presidential offices hae been reducrd
to the -fourth class, leaving the number
of Presidential postoffices on October
1 at 2175, with salaries amounting to
3,750,000. Every prt of the
country is included in the readjust
ment. Tho changes in some of the
latger offices are noted below: Chi
cago, present salary 4000, salary as
adjusted $G000; Cincinnatti, present
balary 4000, salary as adjusted
5000; San Francisco, present salary
4000, salary as adjusted 5000.
There wil'. be 325 members in the
next house of representatives, instead
of the 293 of the last house. The
Eastern stales have the ninety-five
the' had in the last house the western
states have 109 instead of ninety-two
the Southern states have 121, instead
of 100.
Ohio has gono Democratic by abont
13,000 majority and Iowa is Repub
lican by 20,000. Ohio never fails in
doing this in an pfi" Year but is one of
tho most reliable Republican States at
presidential election.

The near approach of the comple
tion of our magnificent Court House
prompts us to again mention it in a
spirit of local pride. We doubt if
ever better or more conscientious
work witsevqr done on a public build
ing than has been done by the con
tractor, Mr. L. S. P. Marsh, cm this.
Tho plan has been strictly adhered to
and every portion of the wood work
being perfect and as well finished as
if dono for a private party. Mr.
Marsh took the contract to build the
Court House for the sum of 32,000
from the bottom of the foundation to
the tower agreeing to have it finished
for cccupancyby Feb. 9th 1884, buthe,
has pushed the work so energetically
that it will be turned over to tho
County Commissioners by Nov. 30th,
this year, and tho November term of
court will bs held in it. The public
may form an estimate of the magni
tude of this work when we state that
it contains over 400,000 brick; over
70,000 feet of framing and rough, lum
ber, 80,000 feet of sash, door, finish
ing and cornice, the roof requiring
50,000 shingles. The foundation alone
cost 0,000 and is substantial
enough to support a much higher
building, containing 950 perch of stonr.
The tower is vory ornate and well
proportioned giving the building a
symmetrical and beautiful finish at
the top, being 70 feet from the ground
and surmounted with a flag-staff 20
feet in height from which the stars and
stripes will soon iloat. Messrs. liy
ars & Guerin, sub contractors for tho
brick work and plastering, hare done
their part in a very creditable manner
apparently trying to see how well,
rather than how quickly, it could be
done and they deserve credit for the
handsome way in which it has been
accomplished, so far. It is expected
that all the plastering will be done
within two weeks and the finishing of
each room will be a question of a very
short tixo. The tin work on the
gutters, roof and tower was done by
K. Kubli and excellently well done.
Tho lower story of tho building will
bo occupied by the County Clerk,
Judge, Sheriff, Assessor, County Com
missioner's and District Attorney, and
adjoining the County. Clerk's office is a
securo fire prof vault that will hold
the records of Jackson county long
after this generation has passed. On
the second story, reached by winding
stairs from the front vestibule is a
spacious court room 70 by 42 feet,
the corners of which ars broken with
masonry so as to render its accoustic
properties more perfect. In the front
wings of this story are Grand and
Petty jury rooms and in the rear
wings a private room for tho Circuit
Judge and one, approached by a near
stairway, on the opposite side for the
reception of prisoners or legal consul
tation with their attorneys. This
buildins has been a necessitv for the
past twenty years; we doubt if there
will ever be another as handsome
and enduring built within this State at
so little cost and, with proper care,
there is no reason why it should not
last a century. It is, indeed, a struct
ure of which the people of Jackson
county may well feel proud and pub
lic thanks are due to Mr. Marsh and
those who assisted him in carrying out
the plan so faithfully and honestly and
who have arrived at perfect work
without regard to their own profit or
convenience.
11 elsliti anil Measures.
The following standard of weights
