LOCAL HAPPENINGS.
The Census.
The census will be taken this year, and
there aro two points in connection with
which we wish to emphasise. The firat is
the secrecy of the census ; and the second,
the fact that it will not in any way affect
taxes. We wish the people everywhere to
understand that the enumerator who col-
lects the information is sworn to secrecy,
and the information given by one person
is never seen by anyone except the enum-
erator and the Government statistical
officers. Ladies often do not give right
answers, or they suppress information be-
cause they are afraid the next door neigh-
bor will see it. They need not be, Then
again people will not give information
about their property or belongings because
they are afraid their taxes will be increased
The census has nothing to do with the
taxes, and municipal or other tax officers
are not allowed to see the census returns.

Death of :lames Hawkins, Esq.
A Port Albert correspondent refers to a
brother of Mrs W Case, Exeter, whow as
known to many in this neighborhood :—
"James Hawkins, who has been suffering
with that dreadful disease, cancer, during
the past year. died Sunday evg, the Sth
inst, at the good old age of seventy-five
years and ten months, leaving a widow,
three sons and two daughters to mourn his
departure from this life. He was a native
of the eounty of Efldare, Ireland, and
emigrated to Canada when he was but a
boy, and located at London. Being of a
rambling disposition, when not out of his
teens he struck for New Orleans, where be
shipped on one of the fur trading steamers
and put in a lively season trading amongst
tbe savages up the Missouri, up as far as
Yellowstone. After two years of life in
the wild west he returned to London and
joined the Middlesex Cavalry, he being
one of the best riders in the ranks (with
the exception of his brother, "Tony,' who
was an invincible in riding or managine•
horse.) When the rebellion was rooted
out by the "bould soger boys" he purchas-
ed a farm of 200 acres, which now joins
r,ondon West, where he lived and kept

sold out and moved up to Ashfield. and
