The organisation for taJung tue oensua
, ..t 1881 will thus be pretty tench the
rime as that adopted in 1871. In Eng-
land and Wales there were at that time
626 supenntendent registrars', districta,
which were subdivided into 2,196 sub-
district*. each having a local registrar of
births and deaths. Acting under the
instructions of the superintendents the
registrars divided the sub -districts• into
enumeration districts. Tits Custom -
House officers were entrusted with the
duty of euumerating promote en board
merchant vessels, dishing busts and other
craft in the various porta and rivers.
Instructions were issued by the Admiral-
ty to officers in command of Her Majes-
ty's shim directing them to make returns
in respect of the officers and men of the
royal navy at home •and abroad, and
similar directions were issued by the
Horse Guards to the officers in 'n -oom
tums-
eioned officers and uien of the arniy.
The enumerator's first duty was to de-
liver, some time during the week preced-
ing the. census day, to every occupier of
a house or tenement, a schedule to be
filled up, under a penalty in case of wil-
ful default, with the required particulars
concerning every person who abode there
• on the night of the census day, which
was Sunday, April 2. No member of
th. .IMO niktbat night was to be
entered, aid p.r.6ua travelling were to
be enumerated at the hotels or houses at
which they stopped on the next day.
On Monday, the 3rd of April, the sche-
dules were collected by the enumerators,
who had to see that the entriea were
properly nude and were likely to be cor-
rect
Ater the schedules had beeu duly col-
lected, the particulars contained in them
were transcribed by the enumerator,
into an "Enumerstion Book," with full
particulars as to the local boundaries and
a summary of the total number of houses
and persons enumerated. The registrar
then carefully revised the entries in the
enumeration books, collated them and
prepared a summary for his sub-distriet,
which he forwarded with all the docu-
ments to e supt. registrar upon whom
was imposed the duty of making a gene-
ral revision of the returns and of testing
their accuracy, with a view to seeing that
the registrars and enumerators had pro-
perly performed their duties. By the
end of May the whole of the schedules,
books and other returns were sent to the
central office, and, within three months
from the date of the census a prelimin-
ary statement was issued, showing the
approximate numbers of the population
and houses enumerated.
But little difficulty wan experienced
in taking the census of 1871, and no pro-
secution for default was instituted by
the Registrar -General, although in one
or two instances householders 'who re-
fused to give the required particulars had
to be put under coercion of the law. One
er two curious incidents were recorded
by the Registrar -General. A wealthy
apinster of somewhat advanced age de-
clared that not even a fine of $20 would
induce her to give the information requir-
ed: and she caused her doors and win-
dows to be barred on the approach of the
enumerator. By a little tact, however,
the Registrar -General persuaded her to
Rend the schedule privately to him. Al-
together ennui fourteen schedules were
• thus sent in order to avoid the scrutiny

CHILDREN'S GARDENS.
The value of the garden fur education-
al purposes is, unfortunately, very much
overlooked. Anyone who will give the
subject fair consideration can scarcely
fail to be impressed with a conviction of
the waste involved in the dreary little
patches of ground everywhere to be
seen in a condition of utter neglect.
There is not one of thew patches which,
if parents and teachers were only compe-
tent to give sr very little intelligent over-
sight and direction, might not become,
to an important extent, s school capable
of inculcating some of the most important
of practical lessons, as well as a source of
health and of the cheapest and simplest
pleasure. The neglect is undoubtedly
vexatiousbut it sienna too be of little
use to waste sentiment Over these little
town deserts, and to wish that the chiL
dren of the poor could have the benefit
of the schooling they might give, when
those who enjoy good gardens and have
the means of making use of them they
may think tit, as well as the intelligence
which might, one would think, be suffi-
cient to enable them to value them highly
for practical educational purposes, are
so rarely found making any sensible and
systeniatic•use of them.
The taste.s of children vary, perhaps,
as much, if not so decidedly, as those of
their elders, and there are some who find
greater amusement and satisfaction than
others in gardening pursuits. In a gen-
eral way, however, it may be safely said
that there must be something a 'att.; out
of the normal in any child who cannot
be interested in them. Children love
flowers as naturally aa ducka love water,
and it always adds immensely to the en-
joyment of any form of activity in which
they can be engaged to know that it has
*practical and useful purpose. It was
on just such a principle that the Prince
Consort encouraged the young members
of the Royal family to cultivate garden
plots, and had mi kitchen conveniently
.f enumerators in certain country din -
fitted up near the Swiss Cottage for them

ten, who is ,probably the mot ofWeitve
Ise -keeper in the world, ifin Ansierictui
Grocer saw Although Mk. Jura is in
affluent circumstances he less pursued
beekeeping as a hobby, and ati well suc-
ceeded in making it a profitable one thst
last year he succeeded inabouring thirty -
eve tons of estracted haboy. Finding
Mr. Benton to be a thoroughly practical
bee -keeper, a linguish ofltigh order, and
acquainted with Cypruia.My. Jones de-,
tannined to take Ilan Oath° island, and
if the race of bees proved:so much super-
ior to our own blacks ue•the Italians, to
establish a nursery amine for the rearing
of queen bees. Mews, Jones and Ben-
ton passed through,New York last winter,
and the former having sold he honey to
Measr& Thurber .ft Cu., they proceeded
on ther way to the "bind o' Turks." Mr.
Jones was lately here oa,hia return trip;
he dwells upon the fine pointruf the $1,-
500 worth of Cyptiaa queens he has with
hint with all the withusioni of a breeder
of blooded stock, and went so far as to
take them to one of the London park"
and let them try before enibarkieg on
their final journey. Mr. Benton has
been located in Cyprus, and after this
will raise the queens and ship them to
Mr. Jones, in Canada, through Thurber's
London house a distaste ..f 9,000 miles.

PRONUNCIATION OF ENGLISH
NAMES.
A recent work published by F. Warne
& CO, London, entitled " The Manners
and tone of Good Society,""has a chap-
ter on the pronunciation of the proper
names and titles of the English aristo-
cracy, which will be of peculiar service to
those who are given to the reading of
English history or English novels. The
following condeneatilen of the examples
furnished by the autho are given here-
with: --Such are Chjlittondeley, pro-
nounced Chuniley; Marjoribanks, pro-
nounced Marshbanks; Cockburn, pro-
nounced Coburn; and Cowper, pro-
nounced Cooper. Again Mainwaring is
Mannering, McLeod is McLoud. In
Elgin and Gillet, the "g" is hard; in
Gifford and Nigel it is soft; in Johnstone
the "t" shnuld not be sounded. In
Molyneux the "s" is sounded, and the
name is pronounced Molynoox, with a
very slight accent en the last syllable.
In Vaux the "x" is sounded, but is
mute in Des Vaux, and likewise in De-
vereux. In Ker, Berkely and Derby
the "e" has the sound of "a" in far. In
Waldegrave, the second syllable should
be dropped, and so should the "th" in
Blyth. Dillwyn is pronounced Dillun,
and Lyveden Livden. In Conyngham,
Monson, Mookton and Ponsonby, the
"o" takes the sound of "u," and Blount
should be pronounced as Blunt, the "0"
being mute. Buchan should be pro-
nounce 1 Buckan, and Beauclerk or
Beauclerc, is Boclare, the accent being
on the first syllable. Wemyess should
be pronounced Weems, and D'Eresby,
D'Ersby. In Montgornerie the, "t" is
elided, and two "os" have the sound of
"u," the accent being on the Second
syllable. In Hertford, the "t" is elid-
ed, and the "e" has the sound of "a" in
far. Strachan should be pronounced
Strewn; Colquehoun is Koohoon, the
accent being on the last syllable; Beau -
chain') is Beacham, and Coutts is Koots.
Another formidable name to the unin-
itiated is Duchesne, which should be
pronounced Dukani; Bethune should be
Beeton; and in Abergavenny, the "av"
le not sounded. Menzies ia pronounced
Mynges ; Knollys as Knowls; Sandys as
Sands; Gower as Gorr; Milnes as Mills.
Finally, Dalziel should be pronounced
Deeali, with the accent on the first sylla-
ble: Chartres; im Charters; Glamis is
Marion; Geoghegan should he pronoursc-
od Geyer,: and Ruthven in Riven. We
