HOW DO WE I.IVE AND DIE IN
WASHINGTON?
The) great advantagtj which tvery gorem
ment or State would derive from a carefully
executed system of registration within its
border! art too obvious for argument. The
relatlre mortality and fecundity of popula
tion, the longevity of the people, the causes
of death and relatlre prevalence of different
diseases, the proportion! of the sexes, the
comparative healthfulneai of city and coun
try and of different parta of country, the na
tivities of the people, the frequency of mar
riage at different seasons and the comparison
of mortality with other States and nations
alL these are fact! which are of public inter
est to the whole1 body of society. When to
these considerations are added the local and
indlvidaal benefits of baring the family rec
ord of each Inhabitant prescrred in an au
thenticated form, It seems surprising that a
practical people, 10 adranced In civilization
as ourselves, should hare adopted no uniform
and permanent system of registration
throughout the country.
The thorough registration of the peoplo is
oi recent origin, eren in Great Uritaln. In
the United States Massachusetts took the
lead in establishing Ttgistration. In 1841,
(only twu years after the appearanco of
the first annual report of the Reg
istrar General of births, marriages,
and deaths, in England,) Massachusetts
passed a " law concerning the registration
of births, marriages, and deaths." It requires
the clerk of each town and city in the State
to receive, record, and index the following
facts:
In the record of births, the date and place
'of the births, the name of the child, (if it
bare any,) the sex and color, the name, resi
dence, and places of birth of the parents, the
occupation of the father, and the date of the
record are given.
In the record of marriages, there is to be
given the date and place of the marriage,
the name, residence, and official station of
the person by whom married, the names and
nativity of the parties, the age, color, and
residence of each, the condition of each,
(whether single or widowed,) the occupation,
the names of the parents, and the date of the
record. As marriage certificates or licenses
are procured only from the Town Clerk or
Register, this-dnty Is easy.
In the record of deaths, the date-of the
death, the name and age of the deceased,
the sex, color, condition, (whether single,
widowed, or married,) residence, occupation,
place of death, nativity, the names and na
tivity of the parents, the disease or cause of
death, the place of burial, and tho date of
the record.
Parents are required to give notice to the
Town Clerk of the births and deaths of their
children, every householder to give like notice
of every birth or death happening in his
house ; and whoever neglects to giro such
notice within six months after a birth or
death, forfeits a sum not exceeding five dol
lars. All physicians are required to furnish, for
registration, certificates of the cause of death
of persons attended by them, under penalty
of 810 fine. Sextons, undertakers, and super
intendents of burial-grounds or burials are
required to return the facta aet forth above
la.the record of deaths, and receive a fee of
ten cents therefor, in each case. Tho record
of the town clerk relatlre to any birth, mar
riage, or death, is prima facie evidence, in
legal proceedings, of the facta recorded and
the clerks are required to transmit, by the
1st of February of each year, a copy of the
register for the year ending the preceding
December, to the Secretary of Stato of the
Commonwealth, who must furnish all the
blank forms required for registration. For
these services the town clerk receives a fee
of twenty-fire cents each entry. The returns
are required to be tabulated In tho office of
Secretary of State for publication, while tho
original returns are bound in volumes and
accurately Indexed for reference. The first
entries are also in bound books, and contain
the history of the vital statistics and family
changes of each town, preserved for perma
nent reference in the office of the clerk of
each township.
Now some may consider it a matter of no
importance to the public how people llvo or
die In Washington; but the inhabitants of
the District of Columbia have surely some
interest in these vital statistics, and we trust
that Congress will, In any of the plans of
"reconstruction" of the District, include a
proper registration law so that we can find out
at what rate we are living and dying.

naa done many acu wnicn were anapprovea 01 oy
tbe per pie or the country, lie naa tneae appoint
ments to office without requiring the conditions
prescribed by law. Tbo policy at preaent In
selling gold bad alio been condemned, and he (Mr
W bad received a letter from an eminent mer
chant orNaw York on the aubject. Other men were
alio In favor of recognising the extatenoe and the
poweri of Congreii, but the Secretary, In a speech
which he Mr. W would not attempt to criticise,
had even gone beyond tbe Preiidcnt.
Mr. Feuenden th'ugbt it unwise and wrong to
bring politic! lo a dliousilon of thla kind, and to
attack an abaent penon who oould not defend him
self. He wu ai much oppoied to what wu de
nominated the Preildent a policy u any one, but
be did not talk about It In appropriation bllle. If
these ducusilona were to be continued on tbe ap
propriation bills, they ahould certainly not got
away from here by July, The Secretary of tbe
Treasury performed the dutlei of hla office faith
fully lie (Mr F J did not approve of the'apeech
made to tbe gentlemen who called blm out the
other nlghti tbougbVlt wu an unfortunate ipeeoht
but u tbe Secretary waa nnaecuitomed to pablle

tended Mr. Grimes said It was a prepared speech j that
he (Mr. O. waa preient on the occailon and beard.
It, and that the Secretary recalled aenteneea after
tbey were ottered, which ihowed that he had pre
pared tt.
Mr, Feiienden laid the Senator from Iowa looked
at tbe matter with a prejudiced eye. lie Mr. F.
oil en recalled aenteneea nere, ana so am toe Dene
tor from Iowa. As to the appointment of revenue
officers who were unable to take the oath, be Mr.
F J would not have done that bnt on that aubject
It wu not yet ascertained who wu right, tbe Secre
tary or Congreee. lie Mr. F.J should not hare ap
pointed the officer! he would have let the revenue
go. That the Secretary luppbrti the Preitdent'a
policy, ir true Tharin he differed with him aa he
differed wiih the President: but why ihould thla
difference ba contlnuAlly brought up in a matter of
Duiioeu. it wu ma noneit opinion mat a
preient Secretary of the Treasury performed bla
dutlea faithfully. Of eoune ba made aome mla-
(. -ill l Par, f.l Ujhuo puffiu wuiu u itm .uin,
but nobody found It out except the Democrats, and
tbey iald be wu wrongvfrotu beginning to end, for
which be did not care a alxpence. lie now hoped
that polltlca would not again be brought up in an
appropriation bill. Tbe Secretary of the Treasury
waa not reiponilblo for the principle contained In
tbia amendment 11 any one waa mi pom. on, o
Mr. P. was more ao than any one elie, ea he bad
prepared tbe draft In bla own office. Ilia prode
cenor bad aiked for tt, and got It without a word
or opposition.
Mr. Qrimei iald be did not arree with the Sena
tor from Maine ai to the Impropriety of criticising
tbe acta or abicni men. it wu ccrtatniy ine ngut
of tbe Senate to Inquire Into the acts of publlo offi
cers and critic lie tbem. The action of the Secre
tary In letting gold at 31 when It wu ruling at 311,
wu severely animadverted on by the bcit financiers
of the country. It waa well known that the club
which pa tied reiolationi aiielllng Congreii waa
compoied principally of Treuury clerki, Mr, Mo
Cutlocb bed not discharged theae clerki, which It
waa hli plain duty to do. He would uk the Sena
tor from Maine whether be would retain clerka who
aiialled In iuch bitter and dligraceful terma tbo
Congress, lie did not know what tba itlf-reipect
of other Senatora would prompt tbem to do, but he
Mr, 0.1 could not, coniiiteot with bla own, vote to
appropriate any money fnr the payment of such In-
uiviuueie.
Mr. Howe replied to some remarks made by Mr.
Feiienden.
Mr, Coonesi aald he could not approve of al
luding to aucb mattara In debate on bllla of tbia
character, lie wu In favor of giving the neeeisary
amount to the Secretary to carry on the builneiiof
bit department, and to pay a in (Relent latary to
prevent capable men from leaving the service
of tbe Government and going Into private employ
ment, lie should have at once dismissed all tbe
clerka who made tbe dligraceful attack on Con
greii. Aa to tbe epeecbea recently made, be
thought It would bare been a matter of pride and
honor to all of tbe members of tbo Cabinet If they
bad refused to reipond on that occasion and to auoh
an uiemblage, compoied of politic el aeroba, wan
dering mlnctreti, night bawka, cormorant!, fungi,
miserable dependenta.
Mr. Howard. That lanough.
Mr. Conneia. Yea, that li enough.
Mr Sherman explained tbe reasona which Influ
enced tbe committee In offering the proposed
amendment In regard to tbe aalea of gold, be eatd
that there wero a number ol clreumitances which
tended to tbe conviction that tbe action of tbe Sec
retary wu nothing more than an error of judg
ment. It was Ti-y orobable that tf the cold bed
not been sold on that dsy It would have gone up to
lot), ana we moan nave naa enoiaer panic 10 toe
country. Indiod, It wu thought by meny that tba
action of the Secretary would be of positive benefit,
es tt would Induce a feeling of confidence In oar
sc-euritles In Europe.
Mr. Guthrie advocated tbe amendment, Aa to
the propriety of Belling tbo gold, if it wu proposed
for Congraia to decide upon that, It would take
tbem about u long aa they had been In deciding
on tbe admittance of tbe Southern Btatea, and
would come to about as satisfactory a conclusion,

Diab 81a 1 Hoping that la a day or two the new
rrenaent win nave nappiiy paaaea tnrpugo ail per
aonal d enter, and find himself Installed an honored
auccesaor of tbe great Waablngton, with you aa the
chief of hla Cabinet I beg leave to repeat lo
writing what I bare before laid to yon orally-
thli auppteuient io my Printed "Vlewe" f da ted lo
October lut) on the highly disordered condition of
or our (ao ieie, nappy ana gionoue union.
To meet the extraordinary exlgenclei of tbe
iimea, 11 aeema to me mat a am gouty ot no arro
gance In limiting tbe Preitdent'a field of aelectlon
to one of tne lour plana 01 procedure subjoined :
1. Throw off tba old and usuma a w des! ma
tt on tbe Union narry adopt the conciliatory
meaaurea propdfeed by Mr. Crittenden, or tbe Peace
Convention, and, my life upon tt, we aball have no
new causa or seceislon;a but, on the contrary, an
early return of many, tf 'not all, of tbe'Btatei which
hare already broken off from the Union. Without
some ooually benlrn eneuure tha remain! nc but.
holding Btatea will probably Join the Montgomery
confederacy in lose than alxty days, whan thla city,
being Included In a foreign country, would require
a permanent garrison of at least thirty-five tboa
iand troopa to protect tbe Government within It.
2 Collect the dutlei on foreign goode ovttid the
porta of which thli Government bu lost tbe com
mand, or close suoh ports by ut of Congress, and
Dtoaaaaa mem.
3. Conquer the seceding States by lnvadlnr ar
mies. No doubt thla might bo done la two or
tbrea yean, by a young and able ceneral-
rroue, a uesaix, or a jiocae . witn tnree nunarea
thouiend dliclpllned men, (kept up to that num
ber,) estimating a third for gerrlioni, and the loia
or a yet greater number by skirmishes, setges, bat
tin, and Bouthern.ferers. The destruction or life
and property on the other aide would be frightful,
bowoTer perfect tbe moral discipline of Ibe In
vaders. The conquest completed at that enormous
waste of human Ufa to the North and Northwest,
with at leut $350,000,000 added thereto, and cui
Jono-P Fifteen devastated provineee not to be
brought Into harmony with their conquerors, but to
be held for generations by heavy garrisons, at an
expense quadruple the net dalles or texee wblch It
would be possible to extort from them, followed by
a protector or an emperor.
4 Say to tbe aecsded States: Wayward siidrs,
depart tn peat.
In huts, I remain vsry truly yours,
