STATE OF RHODE ISLAND, 
 
 Census Office, Providence, "(_ 
 February 20, 1877. ) 
 
 To the Honorable the General Assembly of the State of Bhode Island: 
 
 It is ten years to-day since the report upon the State Census of 1865 was com- 
 pleted. It was my feeling at that time that the completion of the report had been 
 too long delayed, and in commencing the superintendence of the census of 1875, 
 it was my fixed determination that the report should be completed in a much 
 shorter time. But my intentions in that regard have not been fultllled, and the 
 time required for the completion of the work has been the same as in 1865. 
 
 The causes of the delay in the present census have been fully stated in the 
 report herewith presented ; the chief of which was the lamented death of Mr. 
 Isaac Peck, my Assistant in the census office, and upon whom I especially relied 
 in the preparation of the statistics of Manufactures. His death not only caused 
 direct delay in the collection of the statistics of manufactures ; but also, for the 
 want of his supervision, errors crept into the tables which have caused more 
 delay, continued vexation, and some extra expense even down to the present 
 time. These things are now past ; the mistakes have been found and corrected ; 
 and the printed report is before you. 
 
 In connection with this delay, however, it is some satisfaction to know that 
 our experience iu this respect is not entirely an exception to the general rule. 
 In no State, within my knowledge, that took a census in 1875, has the full re- 
 port yet been published. 
 
 This report has been prepared upon the same general plan as that upon the 
 census of 1865. The First Part contains comments upon, and explanations of 
 the statistical tables that are given in the Second Part. An Appendix is added, 
 containing the census act, with the circulars, instructions, blanks, and other 
 papers used in obtaining the statistics for the census. 
 
 In the first part, a few tables that seemed to be of permanent value, are copied 
 from the report of 1865, with additions to bring the facts down to the present 
 time. In this part, also, numerous new explanatory and comparative tables are 
 given to illustrate the difiercnt subjects discussed. 
 
4 CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 In the secoDd part, tables are given similar to all those contained in the report 
 of 1865, so that the census of 1865 can be compared with that of 1875, in every 
 particular. Besides this, several neve subjects are introduced, -with new tablesi 
 and some other subjects are much more fully exhibited than in 1865. In the 
 statistics of manufactures, especially, the tables are entirely changed, and more 
 particulars are given upon some points of this important subject, than have ever 
 been found in any previous census. 
 
 The " Census Act " of the General Assembly, passed March 16, 1875, a copy 
 of which is given in the Appendix, marks a new era in census legislation in this 
 country. The provisions of the act, putting the whole control of the matter 
 intothehandsof a " Census Board"; the unlimited discretion given to the Board 
 in the preparation of the blanks and management of the census ; the full control 
 given to the Board over the appointment of the marshals and agents ; and par- 
 ticularly the authority given to employ special agents, or experts, to obtain the 
 information required, are all new provisions in census laws in this country, and 
 such provisions as are highly approved by all who have had practical experience 
 in census matters. 
 
 I greatly regret that circumstances beyond my control, and some of them be- 
 yond all human control, have prevented the full accomplishment of my inten- 
 tions in regard to the census, and especially, that they have prevented me from 
 doing all that the liberal provisions of the census law authorized, and seemed to 
 require should be done. 
 
 I feel confident, however, that the information contained in the report, in re- 
 lation to the population, agriculture, fisheries and shore statistics, and manu- 
 factures, will be found to be full, interesting, and highly important to the inter- 
 ests of the State. There are, undoubtedly, errors in the statistics, as there 
 must be in all censuses, but it is certain that the facts given are much more full 
 and more correct than those of any census ever before taken of the State. 
 
 A complete copy of the returns of the population of the whole State, includ- 
 ing the names and otlier facts relating to every inhabitant, has been made and 
 deposited in the office of the Secretary of State, and the originals have been re- 
 turned to the clerks of the several towns. A sufficient number of copies of this 
 report has been printed, and after paying all bills, including those for copying, 
 printing and binding, there will remain an unexpended balance of about eighteen 
 ■ hundred dollars of the censfts appropriation.

 RHODE ISLA.]SrD, 
 
 JUNE 1, 187S. 
 
 EEPORT. 
 
 The Second Census of the State of Ehode Island, taken hy 
 order of the State Government, was taken during the summer of 
 the year 1875, the results of which are given in the present vol- 
 ume. The statistics of population are for the first day of June, 
 1875 ; those of agriculture, fisheries and manufactures are for the 
 year ending at that date. In some cases, where more complete 
 statistics could be obtained by the change, the facts relating to 
 certain manufactures are for the year ending on the first day of 
 July. 
 
 The Acts of the General Assembly under which the first State 
 Census was taken in 1865, having been repealed in the revision of 
 the Statutes, an Act authorizing the present census was passed 
 March IG, 1875. This Act, a copy of which is given in the 
 Appendix to the present volume, provides for a decennial census 
 of the State "in June, 1875, and every tenth year thereafter." 
 The several censusesare to be taken uixler the direction of a 
 " Census Board," consisting of the Governor of the State, the 
 Secretary of State, and a Superintendent of the Census to be ap- 
 pointed by the Governor. The Act provides that "the informa- 
 tion obtained by each census shall include all that was obtained 
 by the State census of the year 1865, together with such addi- 
 tional information as may be deemed necessary by the Census 
 
 B 
 
X. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 Board," thus giving very great cliscretionaiy authority to the Cen- 
 sus Board in relation to the statistics to be obtained. 
 
 The Census Act provides that, in future, the Superintendent 
 of the Census shall be appointed, and the work of preparation 
 shall be commenced, at least six months previous to the date of 
 taking the census. But the Act, in 1875, as in 1865, was passed 
 too late to allow of all the preparation for the work that \i ould be 
 desirable. Under the liberal provisions of the Act of 1875, how- 
 ever, some important changes and improvements were made both 
 in the blanks and in the mode of collecting the facts. 
 
 First, Population. The most important changes in the blanks 
 for the statistics of population were the omission of the columns 
 for service in the army and navy, and the addition of a column 
 for "Kelatiou to the Head of the Famil3%"and another column for 
 the "Civil Condition" of each person, that is whether single, 
 married, widowed, or divorced. The column in relation to read- 
 ing and writinar was made to include all children of 10 years and 
 over, instead of 15 years and over, as in the census of 18(35 ; and 
 the column in relation to naturalized voters was made to include 
 all voters, native as well as naturalized. 
 
 Second, Agriculture and Fi.'^heries. Several slight changes 
 were made in the blanks for these statistics, suggested by the ex- 
 perience of the previous census, and intended to increase the 
 value of the facts obtained. 
 
 Third, Mcoiu/actvres. An entire and radical change was made 
 in the blanks for the statistics of manufactures. In the first 
 place, special blanks, with very full and minute questions, were 
 prepared for each of four of the most important manufactures of 
 the State; namely, the cotton, woolen, ircni, and jewelry manu- 
 factures. After these, a blank of the same size was prepared for 
 statistics of all other manuftictures. Copies of these blanks are 
 given, as nearly as it can be done, in the Appendix to this volume. 
 The Act under which the present census was taken also provided 
 for collecting many other facts relating to commerce, trade, value 
 of real and personal estate, rates of taxation, education, religioas 
 institutions, pauperism, &c., &c., in the State. But the late'date 
 of the passage of the Act left it impossible to do this work for 
 this census. It is evident that a full exhibit of all these, and 
 many other facts, M'ould be in the highest degree valuable. In- 
 deed, they may be considered absolutely necessary for a full un-

 derstancling of the interests of the State, and for really intelligent 
 legislation concerning them. Under the provisions of the census 
 Act, as it now stands, there will bo abundant time and authority 
 in the preparation of future censuses, to make all necessary 
 arrangements for obtaining all the information that is desired. 
 
 But the question arises here, as it did ten years since, in the 
 preparation of the Report on the Census of 18G5 ; Are our 
 present arrangements the best, and is a decennial census sufficient 
 for the wants of the State? The following remarks upon this 
 question are taken, without alteration, from the report referred to, 
 and I would only add that the experience of the last ten years, 
 and especially in connection with the present census, has, to my 
 mind, intensified and confirmed in every particular, the correct- 
 ness and importance of the views then given : — 
 
 " BUREAU OF STATISTICS." 
 
 "But the question arises, and is wortliy the consideration of the General 
 Assembly, whether a decennial census is sufficient to meet the wants of the 
 State. A census taken only once in ten years, must, from necessity, be taken 
 under the direction of inexperienced persons, and of persons who have no op- 
 portunity to investigate the subject, and devise the best plan for the blanks, or 
 the best system of doing the work. Everything will be done without plan or 
 system, and in the most disadvantageous manner. No two censuses will cor- 
 respond with each other in the kind, or amount, or completeness, of the informa- 
 tion obtained. 
 
 Besides this, a decennial census may, from accidental circumstances, fail 
 entirely to give any correct idea of very many of the statistics desired to be 
 obtained. For example ; the statistics of no single year can show truly the 
 facts for a series of years, in relation to manufactures, agriculture, trade, com- 
 merce, and many other subjects. It is desirable and necessary for the interests 
 of the State, that these statistics, and many others, should be obtained and pub- 
 lished as often as every year. 
 
 Again, a census taken in the manner it is usually taken, and at such long in- 
 tervals, is not the best method of obtaining the facts desired. I have no doubt 
 that all the facts obtained by a decennial census and many more, excepting those 
 relating to the population, could be obtained far more correctly every year, and 
 with slightly, if any, additional expense, by other methods. Experience, in this 
 State as well as in other States, in connection with vital statistics, has shown 
 the great value of establishing the habit among the people of giving and col- 
 lecting statistical information. The vital statistics of the State are constantly 
 improving, from year to year, and now, tens of thousands of our people feel an 
 interest in the subject, and are desirous that the facts relating to their families 
 should be fully recorded. The importance and value of these records have been 
 fully shown, particularly during the last Ave years (1860-1865.) The informa- 
 tion they have furnished, in connection with claims against the general govern- 
 ment, has saved the people of the State many times more than the expense of 
 making the records. 
 
XII. CENSUS OF EnODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 Similar results would follow from tlie frequent collection and publication of 
 other statistical information. The people would soon understand the subject 
 better ; douljts would be removed ; an interest In such information would be 
 created ; and our citizens, being convinced that no improper use would be made 
 of the facts, would become desirous that full particulars should be obtained. 
 
 I conceive it, then, to be a necessity, and a necessity which will soon be 
 acknowledged and acted upon, that in this State, as well as in other States, and 
 iu the General Government, Bureaus of Statistics should be established, which 
 should have the charge of the collection, collation, and publication of all kinds 
 of statistical information. 
 
 The limited extent, and internal geographical and political divisions of our 
 State are extremely favorable for the easy collection of this information. A 
 suitable person, authorized by the State, would be able, through tlie authorities 
 of the several towns, by corresi:)Ondence, and otherwise, to collect a great 
 amount of valuable information, annually, at a comparatively slight expense. 
 The same person might have the charge of the preparation and publication of 
 the Eegistration Reports, and of the decennial census. By his acquired knowl- 
 edge and experience, and by correspondence with other States, and with the 
 officers of the General Government, he would soon be able to introduce order, 
 system, and economy in the collection of tlie statistics of the State, and to pro- 
 duce reports which would be of great value to its legislators, to its citizens, 
 and to the country. The subject is earnestly commended to the consideration 
 of the General Assembly." 
 
 FLAX OF THIS REPORT. 
 
 The arrangement and plan of this report are generally similar 
 to those of the Report on the Census of 1865, with such modifi- 
 cations and changes as experience and convenience have suggested. 
 The remarks are chiefly devoted to ai> explanation and elucidation 
 of the facts as obtained by the census of 1875, so as to show as 
 clearly as possible, the present condition of the Stale. Some 
 comparisons with the census of 1865 are given, though the want 
 of time has prevented the study of this subject to the extent that 
 would be profitable and desirable.

 I. DESCEIPTION OF THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND. 
 (oO NATURAL FEATURES. 
 
 The following description, with necessary changes, is taken, 
 from the Report on the Census for 1865. 
 
 Rhode Islaud is the smallest State in the Union, being only 
 about 50 miles in length, and 35 in width. Though its area is 
 limited, it has a great diversity of soil and even of climate. In 
 some parts it is quite hilly, though not mountainous, in others it 
 is level ; in some parts the soil is heavy and wet, in others it is 
 sandy and dry. The winters are tempered by the abundance of 
 salt water, and are milder than in the same latitude farther inland. 
 
 The State is divided into two unequal parts by Narragansett 
 Bay, which extends inland about 30 miles from the ocean. Five 
 of the thirty-six towns in the State are situated ou islands.. 
 
XIV. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 Though the coast line of the State is only about 45 miles, the 
 Narragansett Bay, with its numerous arms and islands, gives about 
 350 miles of shore, washed by tide water, to the State. 
 
 There are numerous fresh water ponds in the State, and in the 
 southern part there are many extensive ponds of salt water. 
 
 The State is divided into five counties, and these contain thirtj'- 
 six towns and cities. The towns are extremely irregular in shape, 
 and there is a great difference in their size. The smallest town in 
 area is North Providence, which has only 5.5 square miles. The 
 largest town, South Kingstown, is more than fourteen times laiger 
 than North Providence, and has 77.9 square miles. The average 
 for the whole State is about 29.3 square miles to each town. 
 
 The whole area of the State is 1054.6 square miles. This is 
 obtained from Walling' s map of the State, and has been carefully 
 reexamined by him, and corrected for this census, and is undoubt- 
 edly very nearly exact. The area usually given in geographies 
 and gazetteers is 250 to 300 miles greater, and probably includes 
 the waters of Narragansett Bay. 
 
 The total population of the State, in 1875, was 258,239, which 
 gives 244.9 inhabitants to each square mile, a density of popula- 
 tion considerably greater than that of any other of the United 
 States. 
 
 (b.) DENSITY OF POPULATION. 
 
 A table on the next page shows the population of each town, by 
 the censuses of 1865 and 1875, the area in square miles of each 
 town, and the number of persons living to each square mile of 
 area in each town and county, and iu the whole State, at the two 
 dates named.

XVI. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 There has been no change in the area of the State of Rhode 
 Island since the settlement of the boundary question with ^[assa- 
 chusetts in 1862. The table of areas of the State, as well as of 
 the towns, especially of the new towns, has been carefully revised 
 for this census by ]Mr. Walling, and is believed to be correct. 
 The area as given includes roads, rivers, ponds, &c., but does not 
 include the waters of Xarragansett Bay. In the United States 
 Census, as well as, usually, in geographies and gazetteers, the area 
 is given as 1,306 square miles, which seems to me to be plainly 
 incorrect. 
 
 According to the United States Census of 1870, the area, pop- 
 ulation, and population to the square mile, in tlie several Xew 
 England States, were as follows : 
 
 STATES. Sanare Population. ^f.r/eMre* 
 
 Maine 35,000 0215,9 !.■; 17.01 
 
 Xew Hampshire 5,280 318,300 34.30 
 
 Vermont ] 0,21 2 330,551 32.37 
 
 Massachusetts 7,800 1,457,3.5 1 1 80.84 
 
 Rhode Island 1,300 217,853 100.43 
 
 Connecticut 4,750 537,454 .113.15 
 
 Total 08,348 3,487,924 51.08 
 
 The United States Census Report for 1870 differs fiom that of 
 1860, by adding 5,000 square miles to the area of Maine, 1,156 
 square miles to Vermont, and 76 square miles to Connecticut, 
 making a total increase of 6,232 square miles to New England. 
 Calling the area of Rhode Island l,05i.6 square miles, as I think 
 is correct, the number of persons to each square mile would have 
 been 206.1 in 1870, or considerably greater than in any other 
 State in the Union. 
 
 The population of Massachusetts, by the State Census of 1875, 
 was 1,651,652, giving 211.7 persons to each square mile. 
 
 The territory of Rhode Island is very limited, and a large 
 portion of its inhabitants is engaged in manufactures. The man- 
 ufacturing industries of the State have created a large number of 
 villages of different sizes, and in no other State in the Union is 
 so large a percentage of the population concentrated in villages 
 and in cities. Ttiis tendency to the concentration of the popula- 
 tion in vilhiges and cities, and the desertion of the strictly tarm- 
 ing sections, has been going on for many years, and durino- this

 time, the increase in the population of the State has been almost 
 entirely in the cities and villages, while the popnlation of the 
 farming districts has remained stationary, or has decreased. The 
 last table shows that in 1875, as in 1865, the least density of poji ■ 
 ulation in any town was in West Greenwich, 21.1 persons to each 
 square mile. Exeter is nearly the same, 23.4 to the square mile. 
 The greatest density in 1875, leaving out the cities of Providence 
 and Newport, was in PawUieket, 1,828.1 to each square mile, and 
 next, Woonsocket, l,t)l().2 to the square mile. The average for 
 the whole State was 175.4 [lersous to each square mile in 1865) 
 and 244. y in 1875. 
 
 (c.) VILLAGES. 
 
 The following table contains a list of the villages and cities in 
 Ehode Island, with their population in 1875, and also n complete 
 list of all the post offices in the State. The list of villages is be- 
 lieved to be generally correct; at least it is as complete and cor- 
 rect as I have been able to make it. It has been very difficult to 
 get exact iuloimation upon this sulijcct, as in very many, prob- 
 ably in most cases, the boundaries of the villages are not exactly 
 defined, and the opinion of different persons in regard to the 
 houses that should be included in the village may diifer.

 The preceding list comprises two cities with 114,703 inhabit- 
 ants ; one hundretl and eighty-six vilhisjos, with 101,819 inliabit- 
 ants ; and twenty-eight post-offices which are not located in vil- 
 lages. There are in the whole State one hundred and four 
 post-offices. 
 
 The population of the cities and villages amounts to 214,937, 
 or 83.23 per cent, of the entire population of the State. It is 
 distriinitcd as follows : cities, 44.42 per cent. ; villages, 38.81 per 
 cent. This leaves outside of cities or villages, 43,302 inhabitants, 
 or 16.77 per cent, of the whole population. By comparing these 
 statistics with the corresponding numbers given in the census of 
 1865, it will be seen that, while the villages and rural districts 
 have gained largely in actual numbers, j'et there is a great increase 
 in the percentage of inhabitants in the cities. Several of the vil- 
 lages named in this list, and in that of 1865, are now within the 
 limits of Providence city, and their population is now included in 
 that of the city.

 II. POLITICAL DIVISIONS AND CHANGES IN BOUNDARY LINES. 
 
 Until very recently the chnngcs in the bonndnry lines of cities, 
 towns, iind connties in Rhode I^Iiind hnve been very few as com- 
 piircd with our neighboring States. This is fortunate for statisti- 
 cal purposes. In the earlier history of the State, these changes 
 were, fi<mi necessity, quite frequent, and new towns were incor- 
 porated fioni those previously existing, as the convenience of the 
 population required. In 1781 Scituate was divided and the town 
 of Foster was incorporated ; l)ut from that date to the year 185(5, 
 a period of 75 years, only one new town was incoiporated, (Bur- 
 rillville in 1806), and no changes of any importance were made in 
 the town boundaries. In 1856 Tiverton was divided and the town 
 of Fall River was created, and in 1862, Pawtuckot and East 
 Providence were received from Massachusetts, and Fall River was 
 ceded to that State. In 1868, and again in 1873, portions of the 
 town of Cianston were annexed to the cit}' of Providence. In 
 1867 the town of Woonsocket was incoiporated, being taken from 
 the town of Cumberland. In 1871 the town of Smithfield was 
 divided. A small portion was annexed to Woonsocket, and the 
 remainder was divided and reincorporated into the three towns, 
 Smithfield, Lincoln and North Smithfield. In 1873 a small jior- 
 tiou of the town of Bristol was annexed to AVarren, and in the 
 same year a small ])ortion of the town of Noith Providmue 
 was annexed to the city of Providence. In 1874 the town of 
 North Providence was divided. A poition was annexed to the 
 city of Providence, and another considerable portion to the town 
 of Pawtucket, leaving much the smallest portion to lepresent the 
 old town. The above includes all the changes in town boiindaries 
 to the present date, April, 1876. The history of the (7o(f;)<?/ divi- 
 sions of the State, is taken from the report on the census of 1865, 
 and is as follows, with several corrections and necessary changes : 
 
 " During tlie first sixty-seven years after the settlement at Providence, in 1636, 
 nine towns were formed ; but no county organizations were created. Tliese ■ 
 towns were Providence, Portsmouth, Newport, Warwick, 'Westerly, New 
 Shoreham, North Kingstown, East Greenwich and Jamestown. 
 
xxiv. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 On the twenty-second day of June, 1703, the Colony was divided into two 
 counties, called Ehode Island county, and the county of Providence Plantations. 
 
 Ehode Island county included the towns on the islands, namely, Portsmouth, 
 Newport, Jamestown and Xew Shoreham, with Newport as the shiretown. 
 
 The county of Providence Plantations included all the towns on the main laud 
 of the Colony, and it was provided that the courts should be held at Providence 
 and Warwick the first year, and at Kingston and "Westerly the next year. 
 
 Again. June 16, 1729, the Colony was divided into three counties. Ehode 
 Island county remained as before, the name being changed to Newport county. 
 The portion of the State which had been called King's Province was organized 
 into a county, and called King's county. It included the towns of Westerly. 
 North Kingstown and South Kingstown, or all the main land of the State south 
 of East Greenwich. 
 
 The connty of Providence Plantations, including the remainder of the State, 
 namely, the towns of East Greenwicli, Warwick, and Providence, was called 
 Providence county, with Providence as the shiretown. 
 
 Again. January 27, 1746-47, five towns were admitted to the Colony from 
 Massachusetts. Of these. Little C'ompton and Tiverton were added to Newport 
 county; Cumberland was added to Providence county; and a new county, 
 called Bristol, was created February 17, 174G-47, which included the tow-ns of 
 Warren and Bristol, with tlie latter as the shiretown. 
 
 Again, June II, urtO, East Greenwich, West Greenwich, Warwick, and Cov- 
 entry were taken from Providence county and incorporated as Kent countj-, witli 
 East Greenwich as the capital. 
 
 In the year 17r,o, an Act was passed, dividing the State into five counties. 
 This Act ^vas merely a reenaetnieut and confirmation of the Acts already re- 
 ferred to, and made no <;hanges in the organization of the counties. 
 
 Since June, 1750, a period of 126 years, no changes have been made in the 
 territorial limits of the five counties in the State, except that FallEiver in New- 
 port county was ceded to JIassachusctts, in 1862, and Pawtucket and East 
 Providence were received into Providence county from Massachusetts, at the 
 same date. The name of King's county was changed to Washington county, 
 October 29, 1781, after the surrender of Cornwallis." 
 
 (a.) IXCORPOEATIOX OF COUXTIES, TOWNS AND CITIES. 
 
 The following table was piepaied with much trouble and re- 
 search, aud was printed in the report on the State Census of 18(55. 
 It seems proper that it should be reprinted here, with corrections, 
 to render the information in relation to the State more complete. 
 It shows the date of incorporation, the changes in boundary lines, 
 the origin of the names, and other information relating to each 
 county and town in the State. Some important changes have 
 been made in it. I am indebted to Hon J. M. Addeman, Secre- 
 tary of State, for information from the original papers in his otEce, 
 fixing the exact date of the Act of Incorporation of several towns.

 The State of Rhode Isla>,-d and Providence Plantations originally con- 
 sisted of four towns : Providence, settled in 1636; Portsmouth, in 1638; New- 
 port, in 1639 ; and Warwick, in January, 1642-43. Each town was governed 
 independently until 1647. In 1647 the four towns were united under a charter 
 or patent granted by Parliament, in li;43. In 1G51 a separation occurred. Provi- 
 dence and Warwick in one government, and Portsmouth and Newport in another. 
 In 1654 the union of the four towns was reestablished. A charter for the Gov- 
 ernment of the Colony was granted July 8, 1663, by King Charles II, which re- 
 mained in force until the adoption of the Constitution, by the State, in Novem- 
 ber, 1842. 
 
 In two or three cases the exact date of the passage of the Act of Incorpora- 
 tion of towns could not be ascertained. In such cases, the date of the meeting 
 of the General Assembly at which the Act was passed is given.

 The following table is taken from the report of the State Cen- 
 sus of 1865, with the addition of the towns incorporated since that 
 date, and the statistics of the National Census of 1870, and of the 
 State Census of 1875. The table shows the population of each 
 city, town, and county in Rhode Island, at eighteen different dates, 
 from 1708 to 1875, inclusive. I have also prefixed the date of 
 the incorporation, or settlement, of each town. 
 
 The table gives the total population at each date named, includ- 
 ing v.'hites, blacks, and Indians, except that in the United States 
 Censuses, from 1800 to 1860, inclusive, the Indians in Ehode 
 Island were not included in the population. The National Census 
 of 1870, as well as the State Censuses of 1865 and of 1875, includes 
 the Indians with the other population. 
 
 A table, will be given hereafter showino- the uumber of blacks 
 and of Indians, in each town, at different dates, and also remarks 
 and explanations in regard to the several censuses given iu this 
 table. 
 
 Owing to the incorporation of new towns, and changes in the 
 boundaries of other towns, some rem.irkable changes in the popu- 
 lation of several of the towns will be noticed at different periods. 
 This is especially noticeable duiing the last ten years. For a full 
 understanding of these changes, reference must be had to the pre- 
 ceding table showing the date of incoiporation and the changes in 
 boundary lines of each town in the State.

XXXIV. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1876. 
 
 NOTES OX THE TABLK. 
 
 The preceding table shows the population of each town in 
 Rhode Island by each and every census, from 1708 to 187o, inclu- 
 sive. The first four censuses, namely: in 1708, 1730, 1748 and 
 1755, were ordered by the General Assembly, in answer to Queries 
 from the Board of Trade in England. The censuses of 1774, 
 1776 and 1782, were taken by the solo authority of the General 
 Asseml)ly. The decennial censuses from 1790 to 1870, inclusive, 
 were taken by the United States Government, and the censuses 
 of 1865 and 1875 were taken by the State Government. A sepa- 
 rate census of the city of Providence has also been taken every 
 tenth year from 1825 to 1855, inclusive, a notice of which will 
 be given hereafter. 
 
 The population of the State and of a few of the towns, by some 
 of the national censuses, as given in the tal)le, differs slightly 
 from the figures given in some of the published reports of those 
 censuses ; but I have given the figures upon what seemed to be 
 the best authority. 
 
 The table shows several new towns incorporated since the cen- 
 sus of 1865. The incorporation of new towns and changes in the 
 boundaries of other towns, have made great changes in the popu- 
 lation of towns as given in the table, an accoimt of which will be 
 given hereafter. 
 
 In the notes upon a similar table, pages xxxiv and xxxv of the 
 report upon the census of 1865, a full statement is made of the 
 authority upon which the figures for each census are given. 
 
 (i.) IXCEEASE OE DECREASE OF POPULATIOX, BY TOWNS. 
 
 The preceding table shows the actual population of the several 
 towns in Rhode Island, at different periods. But the increase or 
 decrease of population, at different periods, will be shown more 
 plainly by the percentages than by the actual numbers. 
 
 The following table shows the rate of increase or decrease, ^jer 
 cenl., in the total population of each town and county, between 
 the several dates as given. The minus sign ( — ) indicates a de- 
 crease : 
 
 The table on page xxxvii. shows particularly the loss or gain, 
 and the loss or gain per cent., in each town, during ten years from 
 1865 to 1875.

XXXVlll. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 In the report upon the State census of 1865, ptigcs xxxviii to 
 xli, inclusive, the loss and gain of the ditferent portions of the 
 State, at diflerent censuses, from 1708 to 18()5, were ftilly ana- 
 lyzed and explained. It will, therefore, be necessary at this time 
 to consider only the period from 1865 to 1875. The last two 
 tables show the actual loss and gain, and also the loss and gain 
 per cent., in each town and county in the State, in the periods 
 from 1865 to 1870, from 1870 to 1875, and also for the whole ten 
 years, from 1865 to 1875. 
 
 During the period from 1865 to 1870, the whole State gained 
 32,388, or 17.5 per cent., being nearly three times the per cent, 
 of gain from 18G0 to 1865. But notwithstanding this gain in the 
 State as a whole, from 1865 to 1»70, fifteen towns lost in popula- 
 tion. Of these fifteen towns, West Greenwich and Little Comp- 
 ton have lost at every period for fifty-five years past. Cranston 
 lost from the annexation of 6,200 of her population to the city of 
 Providence ; Cumberland lost from the creation of the town of 
 Woonsocket out of her territory ; Smithfield lost fiom the creation 
 of the towns of Lincoln and North Smithfield, out of her limits, 
 and the annexation of part of her territory to Woonsocket. 
 Though this was not accomplished until j\Iarch 8, 1871, the popu- 
 lation was counted as if it had been accomplished when the census 
 was taken in 1870. Thus Cranston lost 4 7.5 per cent, of her 
 ])opulation ; Cumberland lost 52.8 per cent. ; and Smithfield lost 
 78.8 per cent. The same cause that made a loss in these towns, 
 also increased largely the gain in other towns. Some towns 
 showed a remarkable gain in poi)uIation in the five years, from 
 1865 to 1870, without any change in territory. Thus North 
 Providence gained 40.8 per cent, in this time; Pavvtucket 32.4 
 per cent. ; and Warwick 35.8 per cent. The loss in other towns 
 than those named, during this pei'iod, was in most ca.scs owing to 
 the general cause that is constantly decreasing the population of 
 the farming portions of New England. See the Report of the 
 Census of 1865. 
 
 During the second period of five years, from 1870 to 1875, the 
 State gained 40,886 in population, or 18.8 per cent, upon the 
 population of 1870. During this time twelve towns lost iu popu- 
 lation, the loss in each town being generally quite small. These 
 towns were West Greenwich, loss UO ; Little Compton, loss 10; 
 Portsmouth, 110 ; Fosier, 87 ; Glocester, 287 ; North Providence, 
 
NOTES UPON THE PRECEDING TABLES. XXXIX. 
 
 19,192; North SmithfieUl, 255; Charlestown. G5 ; Exeter, 107; 
 North Kingstown, 63; South Kingstown, 253 ; Kichmond, 325 ; 
 totiil loss, 20,853. The loss in North Providence was owing 
 •wholly to the division of the town and the annexation of huge 
 portions to Pawtiickct and Providence, thus reducing the j)oi)ula- 
 tion of that town from 20,495 in 1870 to 1,303 in 1875. There 
 ■was a considerable gain, during this period, in every lounty, ex- 
 cept l^^ishingtou, where there was a slight loss of 3(5, or 0.2 per 
 cent. Many of the towns made a large gain from 1870 to 1875, 
 without any gain of teriitory. Thus Jamestown gained 29.1 per 
 cent. ; Cumberland gained 4(3.1 per cent. ; East Providence (32.5 
 per cent. ; and Westerly 14.8 per cent. 
 
 The gain of the city of Providence, from 1870 to 1875, was 
 31,771, or 46.1 ])cr cent., and. the gain of the towns of Provi- 
 dence county was 3,963, or 4.9 per cent. But during this pericxl, 
 the tenth ward, with 15,120 iniial)itants, was taken fjom North 
 Providence and annexed to the cit^ , thus adding to the gain of 
 the city, and lessening the gain of the towns of the count}'. 
 Without this annexation, the gain of the city and of the county 
 towns, would have been nearly equal, or about 24 per cent. 
 
 During the whole period of ten years, from 1865 to 1875, the 
 State gained 73,274 in population, or 39.61 per cent. The actual 
 gain as well as the percentage of gain was greater, during this 
 period, than during any other period of ten years in the history 
 of the State. During this time, 1865 to 1875, every county iu 
 the State gained in population ; but the towus inNewpoit countyj 
 outside of the city, lost 140, or 1.75 per cent. 
 
 Some towns gained largely, though partly on account of annex- 
 ation of terrirory. Thus, partlij Jrom annexation, Warren: 
 gained 1,213, or 43.44 ]ier cent. ; Pawtucket gained 13,464, or 
 72.92 per cent. ; and Providence gained 46,080, or 84.41 per 
 cent., iu ten years. Other towns gained largely on account of 
 business prosperity alone. Thus, Warwick gained 3,918, or 
 50.90 per cent., in the ten years; Jamestown gained 139, or 
 39.82 per cent. ; East Providence gained 2,164, or 99.63 per 
 cent. ; Johnston gained 1,563, or 45.48 per cent. ; and Westerly 
 gained 1,593, or 41.75 per cent. 
 
 The annexation to the city of Providence, by which it gained; 
 21,320 inhabitants, was from the towus of Providence county. 
 The whole county, including the city, gained 62,902 inhabitants 
 in the ten years, or 51.55 per cent. 
 
 o 
 
Xl. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1876. 
 
 A few towns lost so much tei-ritory and population, bj' annexa- 
 tion to other towns, during the ten years, that it made an actual 
 loss in population for the whole period. Thut:, for this cause, 
 Cranston lost 3,489 in population, or 38.01 per cent. ; Cumber- 
 land lost 2,543, or 30.95 per cent. ; North Piovidence lost 13,250. 
 or 91.04 per cent. ; and Smithfield lost 9,458, or 76.80 per cent. 
 
 Ten towns lost in population, during the last ten years, without 
 any special cause, except the general decline of the farming por- 
 tions of the State. These towns are West Greenwich, Little 
 Compton, ^Vew Shoreham, Portsmouth, Foster, Glocester, Charles- 
 town, Exeter, South Kingstown, and Richmond. 
 
 The results of this examination all tend to confirm the conclu- 
 sions as given in the Report on the Census of 1865, thus stated : 
 "It will be evident to all, that the growth and prospeiity of the 
 State, so far at least as relates to ])()pulation, have ibr many years 
 depended chiefly up(ni its manufacturing interests." 
 
 CENSUSES OF PEOVIDESCE. 
 
 Reference has been, made to censuses of the city of Pi-ovidencc, 
 the statistics of which are not included in the tables already given. 
 These censuses were taken by the authtnity of the city alone, 
 every tenth year, from 1825 to 1855, inclusive. Full particulars 
 of all these censuses were given in a repoit upon the "census of 
 the city of Providence, taken in July, 1855." These censuses, in 
 connection with the national censuses, and the last two State cen- 
 suses, enable us to give the statistics of the city every five years, 
 from 1825 to 1875, inclusive. The following table shows the 
 population of Providence, at all periods, when censuses have been 
 taken :

COLORED POPDt^ATION AND INDIANS. xli. 
 
 (c.) COLOllED POPULATION AND INDIANS IN EHODE ISLAND. 
 
 The social position and standing of the blacks in Rhode Island, 
 and consequently their facilities for progress and elevation, have 
 always been better than in the other New England States, and 
 perhaps better than in any other of the United States. They have 
 always had the right of voting upon the same conditions as the 
 white American citizens, and their children now have the same 
 rights as white children in all the public schools of the State. 
 This subject was fully discussed in the report upon the census of 
 1865, pages xlii., et seq. It remains at this time only to show 
 the changes in the colored population of the State, during the last 
 ten years. 
 
 The colored population of Rhode Island in 1865 was 4,087 ; in 
 1870 it was 5,134; and in 1875 it was 6,271. This shows a gain 
 in ten years of 2,184, or 53.43 per cent. This is a large percent- 
 age of gain, and without explanation, might indicate a highly 
 prosperous condition of the colored population of the State. But 
 this prosperity is more apparent than real. The increase in num- 
 bers of this population is almost wholly owing to immigration 
 from other States, and mostly from the southern States, and not 
 to natural increase. At the close of the war of the Rebellion in 
 1865, and indeed before the close of the war, an increased immi- 
 gration of blacks from the south began, and has continued since, 
 though diminishing of late. The following table shows the num- 
 ber of the colored population, including blacks and mulattoes in 
 each town in the State, at different dates. The number of Indians 
 is also given separately, by four different censuses. 
 
 It will be noticed that the figures for 1840 are incomplete. I 
 have only been able to find the colored population, for that census, 
 by comities, and for a few towns. The county and State totals 
 are complete and correct, and the figures for towns are correct so 
 far as given.

 CENSUS or RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 Some notes and explanations of the censuses of colored persons 
 and of slaves, at diflferent periods, may be found on page xlvi. of 
 the rejDort on the State census of 1865. 
 
 The number of colored persons in Ehode Island (not including 
 Indians) at different dates, and their percentage of the total popu- 
 
 lation, are siven in the following tiible

 The percentage of blacks in the population steadily decreased 
 from 1748 to 1865, since which time, owing to immigration, it 
 has very .slightly increased. 
 
 The State Registration reports of Rhode Island show that from 
 the first day of June, 1853, to the last day of December, 1875, 
 there were 2,531 births, and 2,534 deaths among the colored pop- 
 ulation of the State, an actual loss of three in twenty-one yeai's and 
 seven months. The same reports show that the proportion of deaths 
 to the living is more than twice as great among the colored popula- 
 tion as among the white population in Rhode Island. They also 
 show that "the percentage of deaths among the colored popula- 
 tion from consumption and other diseases of the respiratory 
 organs, which depend to ii great extent upon climate, is nearly 
 double the percentMSC of deaths from the same diseases amons 
 
 J. ■_ Q 
 
 the white population." 
 
 The conclusions that I arrived at from the investigation of this 
 subject, in 1865, are fully confirmed by the additional investiga- 
 tion since that time, and are as follows : 
 
 "That the colored population of New Eujjlaud Is not self-sustaining as to 
 numbers ; that the climate and other influences are such that it Tvould steadily 
 decrease, and, unless renewed by immigration, would, in a comparatively brief 
 period, become extinct; and finally, that it is not philanthropy, but positive in- 
 humanity to the race and to individuals, to encourage their emigration from the 
 southern States to New England."

COMMENTS AND EXPLANATIONS. xlv. 
 
 IV. COMMENTS AND EXPLANATIONS UPON THE TABLES, 
 (a.) TABLES OF POPULATION. 
 
 Part II. ot" this report contains the most important tubks pre- 
 pared from the returns of the census of 1875. They are forty in 
 nuQibor, and the first thirty, on pages 1 to 80, inclusive, are de- 
 voted to the statistics of the population of the State. These facts 
 are given with great minuteness, and so far as possible, the full 
 facts are given, separately, for each town and county, and for 
 each ward in the cities of Providence and A'^evvport. 
 
 Some of the tables given are entirely new, and were not con- 
 tained in the report on the census of 18t35 ; while to other 
 tables many additions and improvements have been made. Some 
 information is given that was never before obtained in any census 
 in this or in any other country. 
 
 A multitude of facts is given in relation to the population of 
 each town which will be found highly important and interesting to 
 the inhabitants of the towns themselves ; while the minute- analy- 
 sis of the population may be made especially useful in the annual 
 State reports on registration of births, marriages and deaths, 
 which have become an important leature in the statistics of the 
 State. 
 
 It will, of course, be impossible even to refer to all the numer- 
 ous subjects that are suggested by the tables themselves. It will 
 be my aim only to give such explanations as may be necessary for 
 a full understanding of the tables ; to notice briefly such inter- 
 esting facts as may be suggested by the examination of the tables ; 
 and to make some comparisons of the facts with those obtained by 
 other censuses, and especially with those obtained by the census 
 of 1865. . 
 
 Dwelling Houses and Families. 
 
 The facts relating to the number of dwelling-houses in Rhode 
 Island, and the materials of which they are built; the number of 
 families ; and the number of persons in each family and in each 
 dwelling-house, are found in the first table, page 2, of the second. 
 part of this report. 
 
 There were in Rhode Island, on the first day of June, 1875, 
 38,875 dwelling-houses, of which 37,830, or 97.31 percent., were 
 
xlvi. CKNSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 built of wood ; 784, or 2.02 per cent., of brick, and only 201, or 
 0.67 per cent., of stone. Compared with 1865, the numbers and

 1865 27,959 432 275 28,666 97.53 
 
 This shows an increase of 10,209 dwelling-houses in ten years, 
 or 35.61 per cent. The increase of population in the same time 
 was 39.61 per cent. 
 
 In the city of Providence there were 13,275 dwelling-houses in 
 1875, and 6,773 in 1865, an increase of 96 per cent. ; while dur- 
 ing the same time the population increased 84.41 per cent. In 
 Providence 96.36 per cent, of all the dwelling-houses, in 1865, 
 were made of wood, and 97.35 per cent, in 1875. 
 
 In West Greenwich, New Shorehara, Burrillville, Foster, Glo- 
 cester, Charlestown, Exeter, and Richmond, without change of 
 territory, there were fewer dwelling houses reported in 1875 than 
 in 1865. 
 
 There were 1 ,363 unoccupied dwelling-houses reported in 1875, 
 and only 926 in 1865. In the city of Providence there were 321 
 unoccupied houses in 1875, against 27 in 1865. 
 
 The whole number of familiea in the State, in 1875, was 55,245, 
 an increase of 16,037, or 40.90 per cent, over the number in 1865. 
 We have just seen that the increase of population was 39.61 per 
 cent, in the same time. The average number of persons in each 
 family in the whole State was 4. 67 in 1875, and 4.72 in 1865. The 
 average number of persons to a family, in 1875, varies frcmi 3.83 
 in Foster to 5.33 in Cranston ; the laigest averages after Cranston, 
 being 5.16 in Cumberland; 5.20 in Lincoln; 5.18 in North 
 Smithfield ; 5.10 in Woonsocket. In two towns. West Greenwich 
 and Foster, the average number of persons to a family is less than 
 four ; in five towns the average is more than five ; and in the re- 
 maining twenty-uine towns, the average is between four and five. 
 The average number of families to each dwelling in the State, 
 was 1.40 in 1865, and 1.42 in 1875 ; the average number of per- 
 sons to each dwelling was 6.45 in 1865, and 6.64 in 1875. In 
 Providence city, the families to each dwelling, were 1.68 in 1865, 
 and 1.62 in 1875; the persons to each dwelling, 8.06 in 1865, 
 and 7.58 in 1875 ; the persons to each family, 4.79 in 1865, and

 4.65 iu 1875. New York city, in 1870, had 5.07 persons to each

 Sex and Color. 
 
 Table II. on page 3, shows the sex and color of the population 
 in each town in the State. There were 125,560 males and 132,- 
 679 females in Rhode Island, in 1875, an increase of 37,297 males, 
 and 35,977 females, during the ten years from 1865 to 1875. 
 
 There were 122,634 white males, and 129,334 white females iu 
 1875 ; with 2,926 colored males, and 3,345 colored females. The 
 proportions of the sexes, white and colored, were as follows : 
 
 18'" Whites, 48.67 males and 51.33 females In each 100. 
 
 1SC5 Whites, 47.80 males and 52.20 females iu each 100. 
 
 1875 Colored, 46.66 males and 53.34 females in each 100. 
 
 1865 Colored, 43.87 males and 56.13 females in each 100. 
 
 It will be notic'ed that the excess of females in the population of 
 the State, both white and colored, is considerabl}'^ less iu 1875 
 than in 1865. 
 
 Though in Ehode Island, as iu the other older States of the 
 Union, there is an excess of females, in several of the towns of 
 the State there are more males than females. These towns are, in 
 1875, Jamestown, Middletown, New Shoreham, Portsmouth, 
 Tiverton, Burrillville, Cranston, East Providence, Foster, Glo- 
 cester, Johnston, Charlestown, Exeter, and Westerly. In some 
 of these towns there are industries employing a large number of 
 men, which may account for the excess of males. In most cases, 
 however, it would be difficult to show why, in this respect, these 
 towns are diflFereut from the rest of the State, and different from 
 New England generally. 
 
 Nativity. 
 
 The State of Rhode Island includes iu its population natives of 
 nearly every State in the Union, and of nearly every civilized 
 nation in the world. The natives of other States and countries 
 are not few in number, but comprise nearly one-half of the pop- 
 ulation, and exert a great influence upon the character and habits of 
 the people. In this State, therefore, perhaps more than in most of 
 the oth jr States of this country, the nativity of the population is a

 subject of exceedingly great interest and impoitance, and in collat- 
 ing the returns of the census of 1875, I have shown the sub- 
 ject of nativity with very great fullness aud minuteness of detail. 
 
 Table IV. on page 5, shows a few general facts, as the number 
 of persons in each town who were born in the town ; the number 
 born out of the town, but in the State ; the number born in other 
 of the United States ; and the numl)er born in foreign countries. 
 
 It seems that of the whole number, 258,239 persons in the 
 State, when the census was taken, 85,398 were born in the towns 
 where Ihcy reside ; 49,605 had removed from the towns where 
 they were born, and were living in other towns in the State ; and 
 51,600 had come to Rhode Island from other States in this country 
 where they were born, making 186,609 of the inhabitants of the 
 State who were born in the United States, and leaving 71,630 
 who were born in other countries. Compared with the census of 
 1865, the figures are as follows :

 This shows at a glance the nativity of the 73,274 increase in 
 the population of the State, in the last ten years. In twenty of 
 the thirty-six towns in the State, the number of persons bom in 
 the town where they reside, was less in 1875 than in 1865. 
 
 In East Greenwich, Cranston, Johnston, and North Providence, 
 there were in 1875, more persons living who were born in other 
 towns in the State, than there were who were born in the towns 
 themselves. 
 
 In Warwick, Cranston, and Cumberland there were more inhab- 
 itants who were born in foreign countries than there were who 
 were born in the towns themselves. 
 
 The annexation of East Providence and Pawtucket from Massa- 
 chusetts ; and the division of some towns and incorporation of 
 others, have made confusion in the figures referring to persons 
 born in the town, out of the town and in the State, and out of the

 State and in the United States. By reference to Section 10 of tlie 
 Instructions on page 145 of tlie Appendix, it will be seen that the 
 instructions on this subject were very detinite ; but the figures 
 show that they were not exactly followed. 
 
 The next table (Y.), on pages (5 to 9, inclusive, shows how 
 many of the inha1)itants of each town and county were born in 
 the State, and the towns in which they were born. An examina- 
 tion of this table shows the course of the migration of the popu- 
 lation from one town to another in the State. 
 
 If we take a town at the top of the lable and look down the 
 column, we see how many of the natives of that town are living 
 in each town in the State. Thus, take the town of New Shore- 
 ham, and look down the colunm, and we iiud that there are natives 
 of New Shoreham living in every town in the State, except Bur- 
 rillville, Cumberland, Foster, Gloccster, Smithiield, and Woon- 
 socket. There are 60 natives of New Shoreham in Providence, 
 28 in North Kingstown, 33 in Westerly, &c. There are natives 
 of East Greenwich in every town in the State except Jamestown; 
 natives of Providence and of Newport in every town ; &c. 
 
 If we take the name of a town on the left hand of the table, 
 and follow the line of that town through the four pages of the 
 table, we see how many of the natives of every other town in the 
 State are living in that town. Take Providence, and we find 
 among its inhabitants, natives of ever}' town in the State. Take 
 Jamestown, and we find that natives of only fifteen other towns 
 are found in its population. 
 
 We find also, from this table, that Providence has given 200 of 
 its natives to Newport, and has received 822 natives of Newport ; 
 Jamestown has received 31 natives of Newport, but has given 68 
 of its natives to Newport. Providence city has received in its 
 population 1,072 natives of Warwick ; 341 natives of Foster;, 
 755 natives of Scituate ; 975 of Smiihfield ; 423 of North Kings- 
 town ; and 355 of South Kingstown. 
 
 The law of migration within the limits of the State, if any ex- 
 ists, is only in the movement from the rural portions of the State 
 to the cities and manufacturing villages.

 Table VI. occupies the three pages 9 to 12, inclusive, and' 
 shows how many of the inhabitants of each town in the State, by 
 the census of 1875, were born in each of the United States. 
 
1 . CENSUS or KIIOUE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 There were natives of every State in the Union among the in 
 habitants of Rhode Island, in 1875. There were natives of Con- 
 necticut, Massachusetts, and New York, living in every town in 
 the State ; natives of Maine in every town except Charlestown ; 
 natives of New Hampshire in every town except Jamestown and 
 New Shoreham ; natives of Pennsylvania in every town except 
 Charlestown and Exeter ; natives of Vermont in every town ex- 
 cept South Kingstown. 
 
 The following shows the number of natives of several other 
 States who were living in Ehode Island, at several dates specifacd ; 
 the figures for 18(50 and 1870, being from the United States

 It will be noticed, from the preceding, that there was a remark- 
 able immigration of the natives of other States to Rhode Island, 
 during the tive j'ears, 1870 to 1875, much greater than during the 
 other periods. The natives of the other New England States, 
 living in Rhode Island, increased 11,013, or 38.91 per cent, in 
 five years, 1870 to 1875. The natives of Connecticut, living in 
 Rhode Island, were 2,401 more in 1875 than in 1870, an increase 
 of 43.4 per cent. ; the natives of Massachusetts, living in Rhode 
 Island, increased 6,654, or 35.5 per cent, in the same time. 
 
 From the United States censuses we find that the number of

 natives of Rhode Island, living in the whole country, in 1860 and 
 in 1870, was as follows :

 It would seem from these figures of the United States censuses, 
 that the natives of Rhode Island, in the whole country, increased 
 only 15,376 in ten years, or an average of 1,537 annually. But 
 during these same ten years, from 1860 to 1870, there were 
 46,328 children born in Rhode Island, an average of 4,632 
 annually. 
 
 The seventh table, pages 13 to 15, inclusive, shows how many 
 of the inhabitants of each town and county in Rhode Island, were 
 born in each foreign country.

In. CEKSUS OF EHODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 It will be seen that the population of foreign birth, living in 
 Rhode I.^lancl,has increased remarkably, during the last ten years. 
 The total increase -nas 15,693, in the five years, from 1865 to 
 1870, and 16,234 in the next five years, from 1870 to 1875, 
 making a total increase of 31,927, or 80.41 per cent, in ton years. 
 
 In 1650, the population of foreign birth, in Rhode Island, 
 comprised 15.66 i)er cent, of the whole population ; in 1860, it 
 had increased to 21.41 per cent. ; in 1865, to 21.46 per cent. ; 
 in 1870, to 25.48 per cent. ; and in 1875, it was 27.73 per cent. 
 
 Let us see what has been the rate of increase of the natives of 
 diflferent nations in the last ten 3-cars. The following shows the 
 number of natives of diflFerent nations, living in Rhode Island, in 
 1865 and in 1875, the actual increase, and the percentage of in- 
 crease of each, in the ten years :

 This table shows that the foreign born population of the State 
 has increased in a far greater ratio, during the last ten years, than 
 the population of American birth. The natives of Ireland have 
 increased considerably faster in percentage than the natives of the 
 United States ; but natives of all other foreign countries have far 
 exceeded those of Ireland in -the ratio of increase. The increase 
 of natives of British America is actually, as well as proportion- 
 ally, greater than that of the natives of Ireland. This increase 
 has been almost wholly French Canadians. The Germans, by 
 birth, have considerably more than doubled in numbers in Rhode

 by birth, have increased, the former to more than seven times, 
 and the latter to more than fifteen times their number in 1865. 
 
 The preceding table shows the increase of the natives of foreign 
 countries in Ehode Wand, as compared with the natives of the 
 United States. Let us now see the relative position of the 
 natives of different foreign countries as compared with each 
 other.

 The natives of Ireland, living in Ehode Island, comprised 
 14.61 in each 100 of the total population of the State in 1865, 
 and 14.44 in each 100 in 1875. They comprised 68.08 in each 
 100 of the total population of foreign birth, in 1865, and 
 52.05 in each 100 in 1875. This shows that while the natives of 
 Ireland hold nearly the same relative rank, as in 1865, in the 
 whole population of the State, they have lost largely in their ratio 
 to the total population of foreign birth. 
 
 In the city of Providence the number and percentage of per- 
 sons of foreign birth, and the number and percentage of natives 
 of Ireland at different dates, have been as follows. I have been

 The city of Providence shows a large increase of population, 
 from 1870 to 1875, and a still greater proportional increase of 
 foreign born population and of natives of Ireland. This is 
 owing to the annexation of the tenth ward, from North Provi- 
 dence, in 1874. Leaving out the tenth ward, the population of 
 the city, in 1875, was 84,438 ; the foreign born population, 22,- 
 316, or 26.42 per cent, of the whole ; and the natives of Ireland, 
 14,270, or 16.90 per cent, of the whole population. 
 
 Remarks 'on Xativity. 
 
 I have thus far shown the statistics of the population of Rhode 
 Island by nativit}-, or birth-place. This subject is interesting and 
 important; but if the birth-place alone is given, the statistics are 
 defective and deceptive. Thus take the tables already given. 
 There are in the State 186,609 persons born in the United States, 
 and 71,630 born in foreign countries. We see at a glance that 
 the 186,609 persons born in this country include the American 
 population and their children, and also all the children born iu 
 this country of foreign parents. 
 
 We have nearly all the children in the State in one class, and 
 another class composed almost wholly of adults with almost no 
 children. It is obvious that any comparison of vital statistics, in 
 regard to the two classes so unequally divided, must be useless or 
 worse than useless. The same is true of criminal, educational, 
 and all other statistics ; the division of population by birth-place 
 alone, would mislead and deceive. 
 
 Realizing the importance of this subject, in a census of the 
 city of Providence, in 1855, I obtained the statistics of the pop- 
 ulation very particularly, according to parentage, as well as 
 according to nativity ; and in the annual reports upon the vital 
 statistics of the city, since 1855, I have given all the facts re- 
 
PARENTAGE OF THE POPULATION. Iv. 
 
 lating to births and deaths, according to parentage. The State 
 reports upon Eegistration have also been prepared upon the same 
 plan. 
 
 In the State Census of I860 I gave the statistics of the popu- 
 lation of the whole State, according to parentage, with still more 
 minuteness, and in the present census, the same plan has been 
 carried out fully, and all the particulars relating to the population, 
 both according to nativity and parentage, will be found in the 
 tables. Notwithstanding the universally acknowledged import- 
 ance of this subject, no national or State census, except in Ehode 
 Island, has ever given the facts relating to the population accord- 
 ing to parentage, until the national census of 1870. 
 
 The reasons for, and importance of the classification of the pop- 
 ulation, according to parentage, are more fully shown on pages Iv. 
 to Iviii. inclusive, in the report on the State Census of the year 
 1865, to which the reader is referred. 
 
 Parentage. 
 
 The facts relating to the Parentage of the population, in each 
 town in the State, and in each ward of the cities of Providence 
 and Newport, are given in tables xv. to xviii. inclusive, on pages 
 23 to 27, inclusive, of the second part of the present volume. 
 
 Referring to these tables we find the difference between the 
 nativity and the parentage of the population, of the whole State, 
 by the two censuses of 1865 and 1875, in genei'al terras, to be as 
 follows :

 Total 184,965, or. ..100.00 per cent. 258,239, or.. .100.00 per cent. 
 
 In the above figures, those of mixed parentage, as shown in 
 table XV., are given according to the birth-places of their fathers. 
 
Ivi. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ^ 1875. 
 
 This shows an enormous increase, in ten years, in the percentage 
 of the foreign population of the State, both by birth-place and by 
 parentage. 
 
 We have already seen on page lii., that the population of 
 Ehode Island who were born in the United States, increased 
 41,347, or 28.46 per cent., in the ten years from 1865 to 1875, 
 while the population of foreign birth, in the same time, increased 
 31,927, or 80.41 per cent. Let us now show the same compari- 
 son of the population according to j^tii'entage- ^^'e find the 
 figures in table xv., page 23, in the reports for both 1865 and 
 1875. But we find on page 24, that 9,177 persons are given of 
 mixed parentage, of whom 4,265 had American fathers and for- 
 eign mothers, and 4,912 had foreign fathers and American 
 mothers. In order to show more satisfactorily the siibject of 
 parentage, and to know more exactly the intermingling of diflerent 
 nations in the population of the State, the following table has been 
 prepared, showing Jirst, the birth places of the mothers of the 
 4,265 persons who had American fiithers and foreign mothers ; 
 second, the birth-places of the fathers of the 4,912 persons who 
 had foreign fathers and American mothers ; and third, the same 
 facts for the cities of Providence and Newport, by wards :

PARENTAGE. 
 
 Ixi. 
 
 \^ will now show the increase and the increase per cent., of 
 tile different classes, according to j^nreiitage, of the population of 
 Rhode Island, in the ten years from 18G5 to 1875. As the prc- 
 cedinjT tahlo was not prepared in the census of 1865, we arc com- 
 pelled to use the tigures as given for those of mixed parentage. 
 We therefoie give the persons who had American fathers and for- 
 eign mothers, and those who had foreign fathers and Ameiican 
 mothers, as separate classes of the population.

 The preceding table may well excite our attention. It shows 
 that the native American population of Rhode Island, by parent- 
 age, has increased only 12.89 per cent., in ten years pa.st, while 
 the foreign population, by parentage, has increased 80.11 per 
 cent., in the same time. The Irish, by parentage, have increased 
 53.57 per cent., in ten years ; the English, 75.72 per cent. ; the 
 German, 134.93 per cent., &c. It will be noticed that the total 
 foreign population, by parentage, has increased at almo.st exactly 
 the same rate as the foreign population, by birth-place; while the 
 American population, which increased 28.46 per cent., by birth- 
 place, increased only 12.89 per cent., by parentage. 
 
 These figures illustrate most forcibly the importance of the 
 classification by parentage, for a correct understanding of the 
 true characteristics of the population. It is true that the Ameri- 
 can population, by birth, is the legal American population to all, 
 
Ixii. 
 
 CKNSUS OF RHODE ISLA>-D ; 1875. 
 
 intents and purposes, under the constitution and laws of the State ; 
 but the classification of the population, by parentage, shows most 
 forcibly that the legal American population of the future, iu 
 Khode Island, will be quiie different from that of the past. 
 
 If the increase of the American and foreign population, by 
 parentage, should continue at the same rate in the future, as in 
 the past ten years, the population of Rhode Island, by parentage, 
 in 1885, will be American, 152,087 ; foreign, 222,466. Indeed, 
 if the rate of increase has continued the same, since the census 
 was taken, the population of the State, by parentage at the pre- 
 sent time, 1876, is American, 136,458, foreign, 133,412 ; and in 
 June, 1877, it will be American, 138,195, foreign, 143,307. In 
 these calculations, those of mixed parentage are given according 
 to the birth-places of their fathers. 
 
 Table XVII , on page 26, gives a comparison of the number of 
 persons in the State, American and foreign, both by nativity and 
 l)y parentage. Table XV. shows the number, by parentage, of 
 different nations. The following shows these statistics, comparing 
 the censuses of 1865 and 1875. The population of mixed parent- 
 age are necessarily omitted :

 A considerable number of persons, born in British America, 
 are of English, Irish, or Scotch parentage, so that in 1865 there 
 
MIXED PARENTAGE. Ixiii. 
 
 were more persons in Ehodo Island who were born in British 
 America than there were of British American parentage. 
 
 If we give those of mixed parentage according to the birth- 
 phices of their fathers, there were in 1865, in Rhode Island, 
 27,946 children who were born in this country of foreign parents, 
 and in 1875, the number of the same class was 51,887, an increase 
 of 85.67 per cent, in ten years. 
 
 Mixed Parentage. 
 
 If we take Table XV., on pages 23 and 24, of the second part 
 of this report, in connection with the table just given, on pages 
 Ivii. to Ix., inclusive, we can ascertain the birth-places of the 
 fathers and mothers of those given as of mixed parentage in 
 Table XV. It is not necessary to recapitulate the figures here. 
 
 The intermingling of natives of ditferent nations, by marriage, 
 is a subject of much interest and importance, especially in Rhode 
 Island, where the foreign comprises so large a percentage of the 
 whole population. 
 
 In the city of Providence, during twenty years, from 1856 to 
 1875, inclusive, the proportion of children of mixed i)arentage 
 was constantly increasing. For the whole period, of each 100 
 children born, 40.05 were of American parents, 49.04 of foreign 
 parents, and 10.91 of mixed parentage, that is with one parent of 
 American and one of foreign birth. In 1856 the proportion of 
 mixed parentage was 6.74 in each 100; in 1875 it was 15.35 in 
 each 100. 
 
 In the same city, during the twenty-one j'ears ending with 1875, 
 the marriages of persons of American birth were 55.97 per cent, 
 of all ; of persons of foreign birth, 30.69 percent.; and where 
 one perscm was of American, and one of foreign birth, 13.34 per 
 cent, of all. See the City Registrar's Report, of Providence, for 
 1875. 
 
 Tabic XVII., on page 26, shows the number of jjcrsons, 
 American and foreign, both by nativity and by parentage, in each 
 town in the State ; and also the percentage of those of American, 
 and of foreign parentage ; those of mixed parentage being given 
 according to the birth-places of their f ithers. 
 
 Very great differences will be seen in the proportion of the 
 population of foreign parentage in the different towns of the 
 
Ixiv. 
 
 CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 State ; the greatest proportion of foreign being in tlie manufac- 
 turing districts, "^ery great clianges in tliis respect have taken 
 place since the census of 1^65. We tind now, the least percent- 
 age of foreign parentage in Foster, onh' l.bS in each 100 of the 
 total population; next in New Shoreham, 2.18 in each 100; 
 after these, Exeter, West Greenwich, Jamestown, and Charles- 
 town, all have less than 10 in each 100, of foreign parentage. 
 
 On the other hand, the town with the greatest percentage of 
 foreigu is Woonsocket, where 72.48 in each 100 of the total popu- 
 lation are of foreign parentage. Next to Woonsocket is Lincoln, 
 with 69.74 in each 100, of foreign parentage; Cumberland with 
 65.39 in each 100; and Burrillville, 59.63; Fawtucket, 58 82; 
 North Smithfield, 58. 24; Warwick, 52.37; and Frovideuce, 
 53.00 ; making eight towns in the State where the persons of 
 foreign parentage comprise more than half of the whole popula- 
 tion. In 1865 there were only three towns. 
 
 If we refer to Table XV., we learn the kind of foreign popu- 
 lation living in each town in the State. This table shows that 
 there are 13,698 Freneh Canadians and their children in the State, 
 of whom nearly 10,000 are in the towns of Providence county', 
 and 2,5liO in Kent count}'. In 1865 there were only about 
 2,000 of this class in the State. Xcarlj^ one-third of the whole 
 population of ^^'oousocket, hy parentage, are French Canadians, 
 and one-third are Irish. 
 
 In eight towns in the State, as already seen, more than half of 
 the population, by parentage, is foreign. This foreign popula- 
 tion, in these towns, is di\'ided as follows ; those of mixed 
 parentage are omitted :

PARENTAGE : CITY OH PROVIDENCE. IxV. 
 
 In each 100 of the population in Woonsocket, by parentage, 
 there are 26 American, 33 Irish, 31 French Canadian, 5 English, 
 Scotch or Welsh, and 5 other foreign. 
 
 In Lincoln, in each 100, there are 29 American, 33 Irish, 21 
 French Canadian, 13 English, Scotch or Welsh, and 4 other for- 
 eign. 
 
 In each 100 in the city of Providence there are 45 Amci'ican, 
 ,36 Irish, 9 English, Scotch or Welsh, 2 German, and 8 other 
 foreign. 
 
 Tables XVI., on page ib, and XVIII., on page 27, show the 
 facts relating to the parentage of the population in each ward of 
 the cities of Providence and Newport. In Providence, the least 
 percentage of foreign population, by parentage, is in the sixth 
 ward; 29 foreign, and 71 American in each 100; the greatest 
 percentage of foreign is in the tenth ward ; 79 foreign, and 21 
 Americanin each 100. 
 
 In Newport, the least percentage of foreign, by parentage, is 
 in the first ward, 20 foreign and SO American in each 100 ; the 
 greatest percentage of foreign is in the fifth ward, 69 foreign and 
 31 American in each 100. 
 
 A census of the city of Providence was taken in 1855, showing 
 the parentage, as well as the nativity of the population, like the 
 censuses of 1865 and 1875. We can, therefore, now compare 
 the facts on these points, in tlie city for twenty years, as follows :

 A great change has been made in the proportions of the Ameri- 
 cao and foreign population, in Providence, since 18fi5,bythe 
 annexation of the territory now comprising the ninth and tenth 
 wards. The population of those two wards, in 1875, was as fol- 
 lows :

 Leaving out these two wards the population of the citj' would 
 be: Born in the United States, 51,999 ; born in foreign coun- 
 tries, 18,869; total, 70,868. Of American parentage, 37,233 ; 
 of foreign parentage, 33,6.35 ; or, by parentage, American, 
 52.54, foreign, 47.46, in each 100 of the population. 
 
 Age a7id Sex. 
 
 The subject of the ages of the population, in connection with 
 the sex, in each town and county in Rhode Island, is shown in 
 Table XIX., on pages 28 to 37, inclusive. The ages are given 
 with more particularity than in the census of 1865, the table 
 showing three divisions of age under one year, and also showing 
 the number at each jeav from one to five, and from fifteen to 
 twenty. 
 
 The ages of the living and the proportions at different periods 
 of life, are subjects of very great importance for a correct under- 
 standing of the capabilities and future prospects of the popula- 
 tion of any State or community. A population, like that of 
 
SEX AND AGES OF THE POPULATION.

 many country towns in New England, where a large portion of 
 the young people has emigrated, leaving the farm-houses occu- 
 pied by middle-aged or elderly people, has lost much of its 
 poAver and capabilitj'' for the present, and of its promises of 
 growth in the future. The difference between such a community 
 and one in a manufacturing village, where a very large majority 
 of the population is young, will lie readily understood. This dif- 
 ference will influence the material productiveness of the commu- 
 nity, the probable and comparative mortality, the character of 
 the diseases that prevail, the average age of those who die, and 
 indeed every interest, material, moral, and spiritual, of the 
 people. 
 
 A subject of such importance might furnish occasion for unlim- 
 ited study and comment ; but I shall confine myself to a very few 
 points, chiefly the same that wo'e considered in the census report 
 of 1865.

 CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 In the whole number living, under one year, under five 3'cars, 
 and under 20 years, there is a considerable excess of females, and 
 yet, at all these periods of life, the proportion of males to the 
 whole number of males at all ages, is greater than the proportion 
 of females to the M'hole number of females at all ages. At all 
 ages above 20 there are more females than males in the State, and 
 generally the percentages of females are greater than those of 
 males. This is si)ecially true at the more advan<'ed agcd. Thus 
 of all the males in the State, 8,30'2, or (J.Gl per cent., are over 
 60 years of age, while of all the females, 10,6," 6, or 8.04 per 
 cent., are over 60 years. 
 
 There are some slight changes in the percentages at different 
 ages, as compared with the census of 18t!5. Tlie proportion of 
 the population under 5 years of age, both males and females, is 
 slightly greater in 1875 than in 1865 ; from 5 to 10, and from 10 
 to 15, the proportion is less in 1875 than in 1865. From 20 to 
 40 the proportion of males is considerably larger in 1875 than in 
 1865, while that of females is nearly the same. 
 
 The following table, showing the percentages of the population, 
 at different ages, in the State of Rhode Island and in the city of 
 Providence, at diii'crent dates, will be useful and interesting :

PERCENTAGES AT DIEFERENT AGES. 
 
 Ixix. 
 
 The effects of the War of the Eebellioii can be clearly eecn in 
 the figures for the city of Providence, by the greatly reduced pro- 
 portion of the children living in 1805, as cornpai'cd with the per 
 centage in 1855. The same cause reduced the percentage in 1870, 
 between 5 and 10 years of age, and in 1875, between 10 and 15 
 years of age. The same effects are noticed in the percentages for 
 the whole State. Other interesting deductions might be made 
 from the table did time permit. It is cas}', by study and reflec- 
 tion, to clothe columns of dry figures with a living interest. 
 
 The relations and the value of these figures from the census, 
 showing the proportions of the population living at different ages, 
 will be more clearly seen by comparing them with thoi^e of other 
 States and communities. The following tal)le shows the propor- 
 tions of the living p.opulation, in several States, as named :

 There is much of interest in the figures of this table, and many 
 differences, in the different States, which it would be a most in- 
 teresting study to seek the explanation of. Notice the marked 
 decrease in the percentages under 10 years, in Massachusetts, fromi 
 1860 to 1870. Notice how much greater the percentages in the.

 whole counlry are than those in the Kew Enghuul States at all 
 ages under 20. Notice the marked difference, in the ages under 
 15, between the States of New Hampshire ai:d Vermont. But 
 we must lea\ e the tables to those who have opportunity to pursue 
 the subject farther. 
 
 It will be readily perceived that the percentages of the living at 
 different ages, will vary greatly in'different places, as between Ihe 
 city and the country, or between a larmiug town and a manufac- 
 turing village. Let us coiupare, for example, Woousocket, Paw- 
 tucket, Foster, and New Shoreham. The following shows the 
 percentages in each of these towns, of the living population in 
 1875, at different periods of life :

 The differences in the population, as shown by these figures, are 
 obvious at a glance. Notice the percentages of children, under 
 15 years of age; 32.98 per cent, in "Woonsocket; 24.83 in Fos- 
 ter; 30.97 in Pawtucket; and 29.64 in New Shoreham. Seethe 
 percentages from 15 to 40 years of age; 44.98 and 45.46 in 
 "Woonsocket and Pawtucket; and only 35.77 and 40.81 in Foster 
 and New Shoreham. See the very small percentage over 60 years 
 of age, in Woonsocket and Pawtucket, and the very much larger 
 percentage in Foster and New Shoreham. 
 
 One important classification of the people is so as to show their 
 ability, so far as it depends upon age, to labor and assist in in- 
 creasing the productions of a community. For this object, three 
 classes are made ; those under 1 5 called the Dependent class ; those 
 from 15 to 60, the Productive class ; and those of 60 years and 
 over, the Aged class. The first and last combined make the un- 
 productive, and the second the jiroductive class. This subject is 
 of so much interest and importance that I have prepared the fol- 
 lowing table showing the number and percentage of these three 
 classes, in the population of each town and county in the State ;

Ix^vii. CENSUS OF RnODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 Tiie preceding table will repay miicli and careful study. I have 
 been deeply interested in it for hours. It shov\s more plainly 
 than words could do it, some imi)ortant characteristics of the pop- 
 ulation in every town in the State, and the diflerences in the pop- 
 ulation of ditferent towns. Generally, the characteristics shown 
 arc in accordance with what we should expect from our general 
 knowledge of the several towns ; but there are some strange 
 anomalies that are difficult of explanation. 
 
 For example : knowing that "Woonsocket, Lincoln, and similar 
 towns have a large French Canadian population, and that the pop- 
 ulation, generally, is in active lile, we should expect a large per- 
 centage of children, under 15 jcars of age, in those towns. This 
 we find from the table to be true. Woonsocket and Lincoln have 
 each nearly 33 per cent, of their population under 15 years of 
 age; while Warwick, Burrillvillc, Cumberland, and other manu- 
 facturing towns have nearly as large a percentage of tlic same 
 class of population. 
 
 On the other hand we should expect the more distinctly farm- 
 ing towns, where there are no manufacturing villages, to have a 
 small percentage of children. And this we find to be true, gen- 
 erally. Foster and Little Compton have less than 25 per cent, 
 of their population under 15 years of age, while Middletown and 
 Gloccster have only a slightly larger percentage. 
 
 But how shall we explain West Greenwich, with not a single 
 village within its limits, and no manufacturing establishments, and 
 yet 34.23 per cent, of its population are under 15 years of age; a 
 larger percentage than in any other town or city in the State. 
 Soulh Kingstown, too, not specially a manufacturing town, and 
 with a population decreasing during the last fifteen j'ears, is next 
 to West Greenwich and Woonsocket, and has a larger percent- 
 age of population under 15 years of age than Lincoln, Pawtucket, 
 North Smithfield, and other manufacturing towns. These are 
 anomalies that will puzzle most ])ersons to explain. 
 
 We see by the preceding table that the three towns with the 
 largest percentages of population, under 15 years of age, are 
 AVest Greenwich, Woonsocket, and Soulh Kingstown ; the three 
 towns with the smallest percentages under 15, are Little Comp- 
 ton, Foster, and Middletown. 
 
 The three towns having the largest percentages of the Produc- 
 tive class of population, between 15 and 60 years of age, are 
 
AGED PERSONS IX RHODE ISLAND. 
 
 Ixxiii. 
 
 Providence, Miclcllotown, nncl Jamestown; the three towns with 
 the smallest percentages of the Productive class, are West Green- 
 wich, Exeter, and Chariestown. 
 
 The three towns with the largest percentages of the Aged class, 
 of 60 years and over, are Foster, West Greenwich, and Little 
 Compton ; the three towns with the smallest percentages of this 
 class are Woonsocket, Lincoln, and Providence. 
 
 But, interesting as is this subject, wo cannot pursue it farther 
 at this time. There arc other topics connected with it, as the 
 connection of age and sex, which we have not noticed. Those 
 who wish to pursue the subject will find much material for study 
 in the tahles o'jven. 
 
 Aged Persons in Rhode Island. 
 
 In connection with the subject of age the following list may bo 
 interesting and useful for [)reservati()n. It contains the names and 
 ages of all the persons in Rhode Island, who were reported in the 
 census, as living on the first day of June, 1875, and as being 90 
 years of age, or over :

 The ages arc given as reported in the census. The greater 
 portion of those that are given as over one hundred years of age 
 should be taken with considerable deduction, especially in the 
 case of colored persons and of natives of Ireland. Very few of 
 these persons know their exact ages, and are apt to grow old very 
 fast after they reach the age of seventy-fivo or eighty. There are 
 163 names in the list; in 186a the number was 115. 
 
 There are only two of those in this list, over one hundred years 
 of age, who were in the list as over [)0 years, in the census of 
 1865. One of them gained sixteen years from 1865 to 1875 ; the 
 awe of the other is given as ten years more than in 1865, and is 
 pi-obably correct. 
 
 Civil Condition. 
 
 Tables XX. and XXI., on pages 38 to 57, inclusive, show the 
 number of persons married, single, widowed and divorced, of 
 each sex, in several divisions of ages, in each town and county in 
 Rhode Island, and in each ward of the cities of Providence and 
 Newport. 
 
 This subject was not presented in the State Census of 1865, 
 and I think, has never been presented so fully in any census in 
 this country. The census of New York in 1865, gave the num- 
 ber of single, married and widowed in the State, omitting the 
 
Ixxviii. 
 
 CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 divorced, and without reference to nges. The census of Miissa- 
 chnsetts, in 1875, gives the numher of single, married, widowed 
 and divorced, but with no divisions of ages. 
 
 By reference to the table it will be seen that the number of each 
 chiss is given, by sex, under 15 years of age, then by quinquen- 
 nial periods to 50 years, and then those of 50 years and over. The 
 whole population of the State is 258,239; of whom there are

 Comparing this table witli Table XIX., of Age and Sex, we 
 find slight discrepancies in the whoio numbers of eaeh sex in the 
 dificrent divisions of ages. This is owing to corrections made in^ 
 copying the returns, after that table was prepared. 
 
 It seems from the preceding table that. there are only 3,413 per- 
 sons in the State, 1,102 males and 2,311 females, of the age of 
 50 years or over, who were never married. 
 
 There are 151 males and 984 females married, who are under 
 20 years of age. The number of females who are married is 
 much greater than the number of males, under the age of 30 years ;; 
 after that age there are more males than females who are married, 
 
IXXX. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; IS75. 
 
 ill all the divisions of ages. Of llie age of 50 years and over, 
 there are 14,456 males and 10,046 females who are married. 
 
 There are 9 widowers and 12 widows in the State, less than 20 
 years of age ; and 42 widowers and 110 widows between 20 and 
 25 years. The nnmber of widows is much greater than that of 
 widowers, at all ages. 
 
 There are one male and seven females in the State, reported as 
 divorced, under the age of 20 j-ears ; and 16 divorced males and 
 78 divorced females between 20 and 25 3-cars of age. There are 
 957 divorced persons, 314 males and 643 females, in the State, of 
 whom there are some in every town. There are 428 in the city 
 of Providence. 
 
 During the six years from 1869 to 1874, inclusive, there were 
 1,138 Divorces granted in Rhode Island. The number of divorces 
 and proportion of all the marriages in each year, were as follows : 
 
 In 18G9 1G2 Divorces, or 14.1 Marriages to one Divorce. 
 
 In 1870 200 Divorces, or 11.8 JIarriages to one Divorce. 
 
 In 1871 IGl Divorces, or 14.5 JIarriages to one Divorce. 
 
 In 1872 200 Divorces, or 12.7 Marriages to one Divorce. 
 
 In 1873 173 Divorces, or 15.2 Marriages to one Divorce. 
 
 In 1874 242 Divorces, or 10.5 Marriages to one Divorce. 
 
 It is probable that some of the divorces granted are of citizens 
 of other States who come here for that purpose. A considerable 
 number of divorces are also obtained by persons for the purpose 
 of marrying again. And yet the nnmber of divorced persons re- 
 ported in the census seems small in view of the number of divorces 
 granted in the State, and it is probable that the number of 
 divorced persons reported is less than the truth. 
 
 This table of the Civil Condition is new in the census, and we 
 have no similar tables of previous censuses to compare it with. 
 If continued in future censuses, it cannot fail to reveal facts of 
 great importance. 
 
 Nativity of Married Women. 
 
 The table showing the number of married persons in the pop- 
 ulation of the State, shows how many ot the married females are 
 between the ages of 15 and 50 j'ears, or within the ordinary 
 limits of the child bearing period of life. It will be seen at once 
 that in connection with the returns of births, we have a most in- 
 
NATIVITY OP MARRIED WOMEN. IxXxi. 
 
 teresting subject before us ; — the number of children borne by 
 married women, of the proper age for bearing children. Is the 
 number less now than formerly? If so, what are the causes of 
 the decrease? If we had had this table in the censuses of the 
 last hundred years the facts revealed and the truths established 
 would have been of overwhelming interest and importance to the 
 welfare of the State. 
 
 But beyond this, we wish to know the difference in the number 
 of children borne by different classes of women, and tliis fact is 
 of immediate and most urgent interest. What, if any, are the 
 differences in regard to the number of children borne by women, 
 natives of this country, and by those natives of foreign countries; 
 and of eacli foreign country ? 
 
 In previous censuses the only information we have had on this 
 subject has been the number of females in the State, between 15 
 and 50 years of age ; but with no information of the number of 
 them who were married, or single, or widowed, or divorced; nor 
 any information in regard to their birth-places. We see by ^ 
 Tables XIX. and XX. that there are 74,115 females in the State, 
 between the ages of 15 and 50; but of this number 30,869 are 
 single, 3,506 are widows, and 525 are divorced, leaving only 
 39,215 married females, between these ages, or in the usual child- 
 bearing period of life. 
 
 In view of the interest and importance of this subject, I have 
 had the following table prepared. It is for the city of Providence 
 alone. It shows Ji7-st, the number and the birth-places of all the 
 mariied women living in the city, in each quinquennia! period of 
 life, from 15 to 50 years of age. Second, it shows the birth- 
 places of all the married women, between 15 and 50 years of age, 
 living in each ward in the city. Third, it shows the number of 
 married women, distinguished as American and foreign (by birth- 
 places), in each division of ages from 15 to 50 years, in each 
 ward of the city. When too late, I much I'cgret that the table had 
 not been prepared for the whole State.

IxXXiv. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 The importance of the preceding tables will be evident at a 
 glance ; bnt the more appropriate use of them will be in the re- 
 ports of the City Registrar of Providence, in connection with the 
 statistics of births and of deaths. We will only note a few points 
 in connection with them. 
 
 The first table shows that there are 15,879 married women in 
 Providence, of whom 9,159, or 57.68 per cent, were born in the 
 United States, and 6,720, or 42.32 per cent, were born in foreign 
 countries. Of all the married women in the city, between 15 and 
 50 years of age, 27.3 in each 100 were born in Ireland, and of 
 the whole number of married women of this age who were born 
 in foreign countries, 61.51 in each 100 were born in Ireland. 
 
 The second table shows the number in each ward of the city, 
 who were born in each foreign country. The number of married 
 women, from 15 to 50 years of age, who were born in the United 
 States, is greater than the number born in foreign countries, in 
 every ward in the citv, except the Third and Tenth. In the third 
 ward there are 45 more foreign than American, and in the tenth 
 ward, there are 1,759 foreign married women to 807 American. 
 This table shows how those born in different forciofu countries 
 are distributed in the several wards of the city. 
 
 The following table from the Twenty-first Annual Report of the 
 City Registrar of Providence, for the year 1875, gives an inter- 
 esting illustration of the importance of the facts given in the 
 census tables on this subject, and will afford fooil for reflection. 
 The table shows the birth-places of all the married women in 
 Providence, in 1875, between the ages of 15 and 50 ; the number 
 of children they bore during the 3'ear 1875 ; and the ratio of the 
 number of children borne by the women natives of each country, 
 to the number of the married women of each country, within the 
 ages specified :

 This tiiblc shows that, during tlie year 1875, the Ameiicau 
 mairied women in Piovidcnce in the usual child-bearing period of 
 life, bore a very greatly less percentage of children than the for- 
 eign married women in the same period of life. Each 100 of the 
 women born in Ireland had 8.47 more children, on an average, in 
 1875, than the same number of women born in the United States. 
 The 6,720 women, in the tabic, who were born in foreign coun- 
 tries, had in that year, 210 more children, than the 9,159 women 
 who were born in the United States. If the women of American 
 birth had borne the same proportion of children in 1875, as the 
 women of foreign birth, there would have been, in that year, 
 1,958 children of American parentage, instead of 1,227, the 
 actual number, or an increase of 731 over the number reported. 
 But the discussion of this subject belongs to the reports of the 
 City Registrar of Providence. It is introduced here as oue illus- 
 tration of the interest in, and the utility of, the tables in the 
 census report. 
 
Ixxxvi. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 School Statistics. 
 
 Tabic XXII., on page 58, shows for each town and county iu 
 Rhode Island the popnlation between the school ages of 5 and 16, 
 and the nnmber of all ages who were reported as attending cither 
 the Public, Select, or Catholic Schools, during the year ending 
 June 1, 1875. Table XXIII. , page 59, shows the same facts for 
 tiie cities of Providence and Xewport, by \Vards. 
 
 The population of the whole State, between 5 and 16 years, is 
 53,316; the whole number reported as attending school, during 
 the year, is 39,164, showing that 14,152 children of the legal 
 school age did not attend any school during the year. This is 
 26.54 per cent, of the whole number. 
 
 Of the whole number (39,164) who were reported as attending 
 school during the year, 31,999 attended the Public Schools; 
 3,053 attended Select Schools; and 4,112 attended the Catholic 
 Schools. The report of Hon. Thomas B. Stock well, the State 
 Commissioner of Public Schools, for the year 1875, gives the 
 number of different pnpils whose names were enrolled on the 
 school registers of the public day schools as 38,554, for the year 
 ending ^^pril 30, 1875. This is 6,555 more than were reported 
 in the census. 
 
 None were reported in the census as "Attending School," unless 
 the}' had attended at least one month. It is probable that some 
 who are included in the School Commissioner's Eei)ort are not in 
 the Census Report because they did not attend one month. But, 
 it is also probable that the figures obtained by the School Com- 
 missioner from the school records, would be more coirect on this 
 point, than those obtained I)}- the census, and that the number who 
 attended school was larger than Avas reported in the census. 
 
 It should be remembered in examining this subject that some of 
 those reported as attending school were under 5 years of a^e, and 
 some were over 16, and therefoie were not included in the popu- 
 lation between 5 and 16. 
 
 Let us now compare the facts obtained by the census of 1875, 
 with similar facts from the census of 1865. In the census of 1865 
 the school population given was 5 and under 15 years of age. For 
 a correct comparison it will, therefore, be necessary to omit in the 
 figures for 1875, those who were 15 and under 16 years of age. 
 jMaking this change we find the following :

 The above table shows that the school population of the State 
 iucreased 9,593, or 24.73 per cent., in the ten years, from 1865 
 to 1875. But the whole number "Attending School " increased 
 5,390, or only 15.95 per cent., in the same ten years. Those 
 attending the Public Schools increased 4,561, or 16.62 per cent., 
 in ten years; those attending Select Schools decreased 462, or 
 13.14 per cent. ; and those attending the Catholic Schools in- 
 creased 1,291, or 45.76 per cent. 
 
 Calling the school population from 5 to 15 years of age, as in 
 the census of 1865, we find the number of absentees in 1875 to 
 be 9,217, or 19.05 per cent, of all. In 1865 the absentees were 
 5,014, or 12.9 per cent, of all. 
 
 There are such very great ditferences in the proportion of ab- 
 sentees in the different towns that I have thought it best to give 
 the proportion for each town in the State, in the following table. 
 I have included in the table various statistics of interest from the 
 State School Commissioner's Report. 
 
 The school population given in the table, and the number who 
 attended school during the year, are from the census of June 1, 
 1875, the school population including those of " 5 years and under 
 16" years, thus differing from the school population as given in 
 the census of 1865. The other statistics in the table, from the 
 School Commissioner's Report, are for the year ending April 30, 
 1875:

NOTES ON SCHOOL STATISTICS. Ixxxix. 
 
 The school population, as given in the preceding table, is of" 5 
 years and under 16," and is the same as is used in the reports of 
 the School Commissioner. As it includes those of 15 and under 
 16, who were not included in the census report of 1865, it in- 
 creases largely the number of absentees, as only a small propor- 
 tion of the population, over 15 years of age, attends school. As 
 there is no restriction upon the emi^loyment of children of the age 
 of 15 years and over, in manufacturing establishments, or in other 
 work, it would seem that the age of "5 years and under 15," 
 would more correctly represent the actual "school population" in 
 the State. 
 
 The statistics in the preceding table, in relation to the absen- 
 tees from school, are not a pleasant subject for contcmphition, 
 neither in regard to the present nor in comparison with the census 
 of 1865. All the startling and unpleasant truths that were re- 
 vealed l)y that census in relation to the neglect of schools by the 
 children in Rhode Island, are repeated and even surpassed in 
 the census of 1875. This census shows that more than one-fourth 
 (26.54 per cent.) of all the children in the State of the age of 5 
 years and under 16, did not attend any school whatever, during 
 the year ending June 1, 1875. In "Warren just one-half, and in 
 one town. North Smithfield, more than one-half (51.06 per cent.) 
 of the children of school age did not attend any school. In five 
 other towns, Coventry, Warwick, Bnrrillville, Lincoln, and 
 Woonsocket, more than forty per cent, of all the children of the 
 proper age received no school instruction during the year. Be- 
 sides the towns named, in nine other towns more than one-quar- 
 ter of the children are growing up in ignorance. These towns are 
 Barrington, Bristol, Cranston, Cumberland, Johnston, North 
 Providence, Pawtucket, Smithfield and Exeter. 
 
 In New Shoreham, the children who attended school during the 
 year were more than the whole number of the legal school age. 
 This fact makes an ajDparent discrepancy in the totals of absen- 
 tees in the towns of Newport county. In a few other towns, as 
 Foster, Middletown, and East Greenwich, the absentees were less 
 than ten per cent, of all the school children. 
 
 If we take the school population, as in the census of 1865, to 
 include only those of "5 years and under 15," the percentages 
 will be slightly less ; but still showing a great increase of absentees 
 from school since 1865. Thus, from 5 to 15, we have in North 
 Smithfield 344 in school and 293 not attending school during the 
 
xc. 
 
 CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND, 1876. 
 
 year, or 46 per cent, of absentees; in Lincoln, we find 1,390 in 
 school and 1,085 or 43.83 per cent, of absentees ; in "Woonsocket, 
 1,768 in school and 1,152, or 39.45 per cent, of absentees; in 
 Barrington, 158 in school and 65 absent from school, or 29.14 
 per cent. ; in Pawtucket, 2,614 in school and 899, or 25.59 per 
 cent, of absentees ; in Providence, 15,447 in school and 1,979, or 
 11.35 per cent, of alisentees. 
 
 This condition of things in Rhode Island is truly alarming, and 
 should receive the immediate attention of our legislators. The 
 causes are well-known ; they are first the avarice of parents, par- 
 ticularly of some classes of our foreign population, who keep 
 their children at work all they possibly can from the earliest age 
 possible ; and second, the neglect of manufacturers to obey the 
 law against the employment of children in factories. We shall 
 consider this point further under the subject of " Occupations of 
 the population." 
 
 In the city of Providence, which contains so large a proportion 
 of the population of the State, the percentage of school children 
 who did not attend school during the year, is 19.45, or less than 
 the a-verage for the whole State, though the percentage in that city 
 has increased somewhat since 18G5. 
 
 The city censuses of Providence enable us to show these facts 
 in that city for the last forty years. They are as follows, the 
 school population including only those of 5 years and under 15, 
 to make the comparison correct with previous censuses :

WANT OF EDUCATION IN EHODE ISLAND. XCl. 
 
 On the whole, the figures for Providence arc quite satisfactory, 
 as compared with other towns in the State, and also as compared 
 with past years. 
 
 Want of Education. 
 
 Frona what has been said we see, to some extent, what is doing 
 in the State, and what is failing to be done, to furnish every child 
 with an education. Let us now see some of the results of this 
 want of, or neglect of, the means of education in past years. Let 
 us see how many persons in the State of the age of 10 years and 
 over have neglected the means of education so much that they are 
 unable to read and write. 
 
 AVc may find the information in Tables XXIY. and XXV. on 
 pages 60 to 69 inclusive, for each town and county in the State, 
 and for each ward in the cities of Providence and Newport. The 
 tables show, by parentage, the number of 10 years and under 15, 
 and also of 15 years and over, who can neither read nor write, 
 and the number who can read but cannot write. As a matter of 
 course there iire niuie who can write but cannot read. 
 
 We find that of the age of 10 years and under 15, there are 
 1,408 children ("see page 64) in Rhode Island who can neither 
 read nor write, and 969 more who can read but cannot write. 
 This is certainly an alarming statement, that 1,408 children, in 
 the midst of our free schools, are over 10 years of age and still 
 less than 15, and can neither read nor write. We should natu- 
 rally expect that there must be some special cause for this, some- 
 thing unusual, or out of the ordinary course. This we find to be 
 the fact. 
 
 Of these 1,408 children, more than 1,000 are in six towns, and 
 on turning to page 62 we find that of the whole 1,408 there are 
 923 of French Canadian parentage, mostly in these six towns. 
 We also find on page 61, that 318 of these neglected children are 
 of Irish parentage. , It is well known that the French Canadians, 
 more than any other class of the population, keep every child 
 possible at work in the mills, to the utter neglect of schools and 
 education. As they will, to a considerable extent, become a part 
 of our permanent population, it is an urgent duty to them and to 
 the State, to compel them and their employers to obey the laws in 
 relation to the employment of children. Of the whole number, 
 1,408, between 10 and 15 years of age, who can neither read nor 
 write, there are : 
 
XCll. CENSUS OF KHODE ISLAN'D ; 1875. 
 
 Of American parentage, whites, 53 ; blacks, 24 ; total, 79. Of Irish parentage, 
 318; English, Scotch and Welsh, 53; German, 6; French Canadian, 923; total 
 foreign, 1,329. 
 
 These figures show that the chief neglect in requiring the 
 children to learn to read and write is among the French Canadian 
 population. Xe.xt to them there are 318 children, from 10 to 15, 
 of Irish parentage, who can neither read nor write. The popu- 
 lation of the State, bprn in Ireland, is 37,286, and besides these 
 there are 36,637 who were born in this countiy of Irish parents. 
 The number 318 of Irish parentage, who can neither read nor 
 write, is ver}- small in proportion to the whole number. 
 
 Of the age of 15 years and over, there are 14,819 persons in 
 the State who can neither read nor write, of whom 1,762 — whites, 
 886, and colored, 876 — are of American parentage, and 13,057 
 are of foreign parentage. 
 
 The census of 1865 gave the facts on this point for those of the 
 age of 15 years and over only. We can therefore compare these 
 facts with those of the census of 1865. The followiusr shows the 
 number and percentage of different classes of the population, of 
 the age of 15 jears and over, who could neither read nor write, 
 in the Slate of Ehode Island, by the censuses of 1865 and 1875 :

WANT OF EDUCATION IN RHODE ISLAND. XCUl. 
 
 The precediug table n-liows that of each 100 persons in Rhode 
 Ishmd in 1875, of tlie age of 15 years and over, who can neither 
 read nor write, 5.98 were whites, of American parentage, and 
 5.91 were blacks, of American parentage ; 55.97 in each 100 were 
 of Iiish parentage; 4.0ti of English, Scotch, or Welsh; 24.32 
 of French Canadian ; and 3.76 of other foreign parentage. 
 
 Let us now compare the number of 15 years and over, who 
 can neither read nor write, with the population, by parentage. 
 Tlie tables show the parentage of the population, and the ages of 
 the population ; but, unfortunately, they do not show the ages by- 
 parentage. We find on pages 23 and 24, Table XV., the parent- 
 age of the whole population. Wo will correct the figures of this 
 table by those in the tabic on page Iviil., so as to put those of 
 mixed parentage according to the birth-places of the fathers. We 
 then have the figures, by parentage, for the whole population. 
 We find by the footings of the table of ages, on page 37, that 29.48 
 per cent, of the whole population of the State are under 15 years 
 of age. We will then deduct 29.48 per cent, of the ]!)opulation 
 as found, by parentage, and we have left the population of the 
 whole State, of the age of 15 years and over, hy parentage. 
 These figures we use in the comparison below. 
 
 To illustrate the above ; we find on page 23 that there are 73,. 
 923 persons in the State of Irish parentage. We find by the table 
 on page Iviii., that of those of mixed parentage, with foreign 
 fathers, 1,901 have Irish fathers. We add these to 73,923, and 
 find the whole number in the State, of Irish parentage, by the 
 fathers, to be 75,824. We deduct 29.48 per cent., or 22,352, 
 from this number and find the whole population of Iribh parent- 
 age, of the age of 15 years and over, to be 53,472. By the same 
 process we find the other numbers, and the following table shows 
 the number of each foreign parentage, of the age of 15 years 
 and over, and the number and proportion of each who can neither 
 read nor write :

 111 the whole population of the State the proportiou under 15 
 j'ear.s of nge is 29.48 in each 100, almost exactly ; but, of course, 
 this may not 1x3 exactly the true proportion for all the classes of 
 the population named iu the preceding table. It is the best rule 
 we have, however, for ascertaining the numbers under and over 
 15 years of age, by parentage, and probably the result is not 
 essentially different from the truth. 
 
 It seems that the American; the English, Scotch and Welsh; 
 the German ; the British American, exclusive of the French Cana- 
 dian ; and the Swedish and Norwegian population of the State, 
 all have less than 5 per cent, who can neither read nor write, of 
 those over 15 years of age. The greatest proportion of ignorance 
 is in the Portuguese population, 39.20 in each 100, who cau 
 neither read noi' write, ot all over 15 years of age; next the 
 French Canadians, 36.76 in each 100; then the Irish, 15.51 in 
 
WANT OF EDUCATION IN RHODE ISLAND. XCV. 
 
 each 100 ; and the Italian, 15.10 hi each 100. In all the foreign 
 population of the State, of 15 years of age and over, by parent- 
 age, there are 14.99 in each 100 who can neither read nor write, 
 or one in 6.07. 
 
 In all classes of the population in the whole State there are 
 14,819 persons of the age (if 15 years and over who can neither 
 read nor write. This is 8.13 in each 100, or one in 12.28 of the 
 population. 
 
 We have thus far only considered those who can neither read 
 nor write. Besides these, there are of American parentage, 122 
 children, between 10 and 15 years of age, and 1,049 persons, of" 
 the age (>f 15 and over, who can read but cannot write. 
 
 There are also, of foreign parentage, 847 children, between 10 
 and 15 years ot age, and 5,923 of the age of 15 and over, who 
 can read but cannot write. Of those of foreign parentage, who 
 can read but cannot write, the Irish furnish 489, or more than half 
 of those between 10 and 15, and 4,465, or nearly four-fifths of 
 those of the age of 15 years and over. The French Canadians 
 furnish 235 from 10 to 15, and 752 of the age of 15 and over. 
 
 Adding all together, those of all ages, who can neither read 
 nor write, and those who can read but cannot write, we find a 
 total of 24,168 persons in the State, of the age of 10 years and 
 over, v.'ho cannot write their names. The total population in the 
 State, of the age of 10 years and over, is 205,101, of whom it 
 seems that one in 8.48 cannot write their names. 
 
 Of these 24,168 persons, 3,012 are of American, and 21,156 
 of foreign parentage. The total population of American parent- 
 age, of the age of 10 years and over, by calculation, is 107,000, 
 of whom it seems that one in 35.52 cannot write. The total pop- 
 ulation of foreign parentage, of the age of 10 years and over, by 
 calculation, is 98,100, of whom it seems that one in 4.63 cannot 
 write. 
 
 The reflections suggested by these statistics are obvious, and 
 need not be stated here. The facts themselves should attract the 
 attention of our people, and especially of our legislators, and 
 should lead to immediate action. If, as has been said, every child 
 has an inalienable rigid to an education from the community, it 
 ceitainly must be the inalienable right of the community to re- 
 quire that every child shall receive an education. The interest of 
 
XCvi. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ^ 1875. 
 
 the Shite as well as of the child, and indeed, the existence itself 
 of the State in our country, require that an education should be 
 furnished to, and received by, every child who expects to become 
 a citizen. It is most clearly, then, the duty of the State to see to 
 it that neither the avarice nor the neglect of parents, nor the in- 
 difference nor the greed of manufacturing corporations shall be 
 permitted to endanger the best good of her children or her own 
 welfare. 
 
 The returns of marriages in Ehode Island furnish some inter- 
 esting information in coiniection with this subject of the educa- 
 tion, or the want of education, of the people. By the marriage 
 hiws of the State the parties in each marriage are required to sign 
 their names to the certificate giving the necessary information. 
 Those who cannot write must sign with their mark. 
 
 In the city of Providence the facts upon this point have been 
 collated for many years past and published in the annual reports 
 of the City Registrar. The following from the Twenty-first An- 
 nual Report of the City Registrar shows the aggregate results for 
 seventeen years, from 1859 to 1875, inclusive :

 A considerable portion of those born in the United States, who 
 sign the marriage certificate with a mark, are colored persons, or 
 persons of foreign parentage. Compared with a similar table for 
 seven years in the census of 1865 the above tJiblo shows a slight 
 increase in the proportion of those who sign with a mark, who 
 were born in the United States, and a slight decrease in the pro- 
 portion of those who were born in foreign countries. 
 
DEAF AND DUMB, BLIND, INSANE, ETC. XCVII. 
 
 Deaf and Dumb, Blind, Insane, Idiotic, and Pavpers. 
 
 On p:^ge 70, Table XXVI., the numbers are given of each of 
 these classes of persons iu each town and county in the State. 
 The first column of the table shows the number who were reported 
 as " Deaf," meaning those who are " Hard of Hearing,'' or partially 
 deaf. It was nut intended that these should be reported, or in- 
 cluded in the table. 
 
 It will be noticed that 183 insane, and 108 paupers are reported 
 in the town of Cranston. The greater portion of these are in the 
 State Asylum for the Incurable Insane, and in the State Pauper 
 Asylum, on the State Farm in that town. There are also 149 
 insane reported in the cit}- of Providence, nearly all of whom are 
 in the Butler Hospital for the Insane, located in the cit^'. 
 
 The following shows the numbers reported of those classes of 
 persons, in the whole State, by the censuses of the State, from 
 1850 to 1875, inclusive:

 In addition to the above, on the first of November, 1875, there 
 were 13 Blind from Rhode Island, at the Perkins Institution for the 
 Blind at South Boston ; and 9 Deaf and Dumb at the American 
 Asylum at Hartford ; and 2 Idiotic at the Institution for them, in 
 South Boston. 
 
 The table shows an increase of 137 insane, in the State, from 
 18G5 to 1875. The number of Paupers, given in the census, is 
 supposed to be the numljer that were supported by the public, (ui 
 the first day of June, 1875. 
 
 The statistics of Convicts were omitted ftom the census, be- 
 cause all the facts relating to them can better be obtained from 
 the annual reports of the State Prison, and the State Farm. 
 
 The following facts iu relation to the Insane, the Paupers, and 
 the Convicts of the State, are compiled from the annual reports 
 published by the State.

 Insane. 
 
 Ill the census table, on page 70, we find that there are in the 
 several towns of the State, exclusive of Providence and Cranston, 
 92 insane iDcrsons. These are, generally, mild and inoffensive, 
 and are mostly supported at home by their friends. In the Butler 
 Hospital for the Insane in Providence there were 143 Insane, 68 
 males, 75 females, November 1, 1875, and at the State Asylum 
 for the Incurable Insane at the State Farm in Cranston, there 
 were at the same date, 169 Insane, of whom there were 86 males 
 and 83 females. The whole number of Insane in the State, 421, 
 as given in the censug, is undoubtedly correct. 
 
 Pauperism. 
 
 A mere statement of the number of Paupers in the State, as 
 obtained by the census, gives no valuable information, nor any 
 coirect idea of the amount of, or the expense of pauperism. "\A'e 
 wish to know the permanent investments for the support of paupers, 
 the number of those who are wholly supported by the public, and 
 the expeuoe of their support, the number of those who are partially 
 supported outside of as3duras, the amount paid for outside assist- 
 ance, &c. These facts and nianj^ others have been obtained by the 
 Superintendent of State Charities and Corrections, and have been 
 published in the annual reports of the Board of State Charities and 
 Corrections. I regret that the full facts have not been published 
 since the year ending June 1, 1873; but the facts for that year 
 will give a better idea of the subject of pauperism in Ehode 
 Island than can be obtained in any other way. I therefore give 
 the following abstract of them. 
 
 Twenty-seven towns in the State have Poor Farms, containing, 
 in the aggregate, 2,248| acres of land. One town, Woonsocket, 
 hires a farm for its poor. The aggregate value of the land in the 
 twenty-seven farms is, $514,400, and the value of the improve- 
 ments upou them is $230,800, making a total value of $745,200. 
 The average number of inmates of these Asylums for the poor, 
 for the year ending June 1, 1873, was 444, and the cost of their 
 support, above the income derived from the farms, was $26,762.45. 
 
 Eight towns in the State have no Asylums for the poor, though 
 they have 46 paupers supported wholly, and 9 partially, at the 
 public expense. If we include these with those in other towns, 
 
PAUPERS AXD CONVICTS. XCIX. 
 
 to whom assistance is veiidered outside of tlie Asylums for the 
 poor, we have a total of 2,501 persons to whom assistance, in 
 whole or iu part, was rendered during the year named, outside of 
 the Asylums. Of these 2,501 persons, 664 were Americans, and 
 1,837 were foreigners. The amount paid for the outside poor, 
 during the year, was $41,928.89. This makes the whole amount 
 paid by the towns, during the year ending June 1, 1873, for the 
 support of the poor, $68,691.34. This includes the whole 
 amount of expense for town and State paupers, except the aid 
 given by the towns and the State for the support of the insane 
 poor in the State Asylum, or in private Asylums. In 1870, the 
 total amount of expense for the support of the poor was $87,- 
 976.55; in 1872 it was $77,935.25; and in 1873 it was $68,- 
 691.34; showing a decrease of $19,285.21 in three years. 
 
 In 1874, August 3d, the State Alms House at the State Farm 
 was opened, to which 189 State Paupers were removed from that 
 date to January 1, 1875, and to which all paupers are now re- 
 moved from the several towns and cities in the State, who have 
 not gained a legal residence in any town. On the first of Jan- 
 uary, 1875, there were 149 paupers in the State Alms House, and 
 during the year 277 were admitted and 14 were born there ; 235 
 were discharged and 33 died, leaving 164 in the Alms House at 
 the end of the year 1875. The opening of the State Alms House 
 reduces the expenses of pauiierism paid by the towns, and in- 
 creases the amount paid by the State. 
 
 Ccmvicts. 
 
 On the first of January, 1875, there were 67 convicts in the 
 State Prison, and from that date to November 1, 1875, there were 
 20 committed, 27 discharged, and 3 died, leaving 57 in the State 
 Prison on the first of November. 
 
 In the Providence County Jail there were 140 inmates on the 
 first of January, 1875. From that date to tbe first of November 
 1,864 persons were committed to the Jail and 1,871 were dis- 
 charged, leaving 133 in the Jail on the first of November. 
 
 In the Work House and House of Correction at the State Farm 
 there were 199 inmates, January 1,1875. From that date to 
 November 1, 1875, there were 466 committed and 63 escaped 
 inmates returned. During the same period 370 were discharged, 
 2 died, and 79 escaped, leaving 277 inmates in the Work House 
 aud House of Correction on the first of November, 1875.

 Voters. 
 
 Tables XXVII. and XXYIII., on pages 71 and 72, show the 
 number of voters in each town and county in the State, and in 
 each "Ward of the cities of Providence and X^ewport,the statistics 
 according to nativity. 
 
 The intention in taking the census, as shown in the Instructions 
 in the Appendix, page 145, was to mark as Vocers " every male 
 person in the State, of 21 years of age and over, who had the 
 conslilnlional qualifications of time of residence, property, &c., 
 to make them voters, whether their names had ever been placed 
 on the voting lists or not." 
 
 Under these instructions the number of voters obtained is 
 probably greater than the number ever registered, or on the 
 voting lists; and, as we shall see hereafter, the number is very 
 much greater than the highest number of votes ever cast at any 
 election in the State. 
 
 The Tcsult is 42,741 voters in the State, of whom 37,377 were 
 born in the United States, and 5,3ci4 in foreign countries. Of 
 the 37,377 voters born in the United States 13,199 were born in 
 the towns where they now reside, 12,235 were born in other 
 towns in the State, and 11,943 were born in other States. Of 
 the 5,3G4 born in foreign countries, 1,121 were born in England; 
 268 in Scotland and Wales ; 3,300 in Ireland ; 232 in Germany ; 
 2G7 in British America ; and 17(5 in all other foreign countries. 
 
 The whole number of voters, 42,741, in the State, is 16.55 per 
 cent, of the total population, 258,239. In Massachusetts the 
 whole number of voters is 351,113, or 21.25 per cent, of the 
 total population. Of the total population of Ehode Island, who 
 were born in the United States, 20.03 per cent, are voters; of 
 the total population who were boru in foreign countries, 7.48 per 
 cent, are voters. 
 
VOTERS IN RIIOOE ISLAND. CI. 
 
 Of the whole male population in Rliode Island 34.0 i per cent, 
 are voters ; in Massachusetts 44+ per cent, are voters. The male 
 population of Rhode Island, of the age of 20 j'ears and over, is 
 74,753, of whom 42,741, or 57.17 per cent, are voters. In Mas- 
 sachusetts, 76.34 per cent, of the male population, over 20 years 
 of age, are voters. 
 
 Of the whole number of voters in Rhode Island, 87.45 per 
 cent, are native born, and 12.55 [)er cent, are foreign born. In 
 Massachusetts, of all the voters, 80.3 per cent, arc native born, 
 and 19.7 per cent, are foreign br)rn. 
 
 It will be noticed, by the table, that in two towns, Jamestown 
 and INIiddletown, there are no voters of foreign birth, and in 
 seven other towns the number of voters of foreign birth in caJh 
 is ten or less. 
 
 The greatest percentage of voters of foreign birth in any town 
 is in Pawtuckct, 19 per cent, of all. In Providence, 1{).07 per 
 cent, of the voters are of foreign birth, and in 'VVoonsocket 17 
 per cent. In the Tenth Wmd in Providence 34.7 per cent, of 
 the voters are of foreign birth. 
 
 In Bristol, East and West Greenwich, in all the towns in New- 
 port county, and in Foster, Glocester, Charlestown, Exeter and 
 South Kingstown, more than half the voters were born in the 
 towns where they now reside. Of 315 voters in New Shoreham 
 300 were born in the town. 
 
 The proportion of voters to total jDopulation will be found to 
 vary greatly in the different towns. Thus take two towns that 
 are together in the list of towns, Johnston and Lincoln. In 
 Johnston the total population is 4,999 ; the number of voters is 
 1,045, or 20.90 in each 100 of the total population. In Lincoln 
 the total population is 11,565, and the number of voters is 1,124, 
 or only 9.71 in each 100 of the total population. In Jamestown 
 30.53 in each 100 of the total popidation are voters; in Foster 
 28.38 in each 100 ai-e voters; in New Shoreham 27.46 in each 
 100; in Woonsocket only 8.28 in each 100 of the whole popula- 
 tion are voters. 
 
 In 1865 the census only included the naturalized voters. The 
 whole immber of this class, in the census of that year, was 1,260, 
 of whom 896 were born in Ireland ; 239 in England ; 44 in 
 Scotland and Wales; 36 in Germany; 16 in British America;

 and 29 in other foreign coiinlrics. The voters of foreign biitb 
 have increased 4,104, or <^25.7 per cent, in ten years. It is 
 probable, however, that the voters were not as full}' taken in 1865 
 as in 1875. 
 
 The whole nnmber of voters in Ehdde Island, by the census of 
 1875 was 42,7-Jl. Of course it is not probable that this number 
 is greater than the true number. It maybe interesting to enquire 
 how generally the right of voting is exercised by those who are 
 legal voters. The following shows the total number of votes cast 
 in the State, for several officers, at the annual State elections, and 
 at the elections for President of the United States, from 1859 to 
 1876, inclusive :

 The number of votes for President in tlie several years, is 
 taken from the newspapers, as I have fomid no official statement 
 of the votes at the Presidential elections in any printed State 
 documents. 
 
 It seems that the highest number of votes ever cast for any 
 State officer was 23,346 for General Treasurer iri 1860. The 
 smallest number of votes cast for any State officer, between 1859 
 and 1876 inclusive, was 10,548 for Secretary of State in 1869. 
 
 The highest vote for President was 26,615 in 1876 ; the lowest 
 vote for President was 18,996 iu 1872. 
 
 As the whole number of voters in the State is 42,741 it seems 
 that the highest number of votes ever cast, 26,615 for President, 
 ill 1876, is only 62.27 per cent, of the whole number of voters, 
 and that, at that election, 16,126 voters, or 37.73 in each 100 of 
 the whole number neglected to vote. At the ordinary State elec- 
 tions, considerably less than one-half of the voters in the State 
 are accustomed to vote. 
 
 In the city of Providence 16.52 per cent, of the total popula- 
 tion are voters; in Newport 15.91 per cent, are voters. 
 
 In Providence 16.07 per cent, of all the voters are of foreigiv 
 birth ; in NewiDort 17.20 per cent, of the voters are of foreign 
 birth. 
 
 Occupations of the Populution. 
 
 The subject of the occupations of the people is one of very 
 great interest and importance, and at the same time its considera- 
 tion is always iu the highest degree unsatisfactory, because it is 
 apparently impossible to obtain any uniformity in the returns 
 of occupations in the census. Besides this, when the returns 
 are received the classification of them is exceedingly difficult, 
 and perhaps no classification has ever been made that was not 
 open to prominent and serious objections. For these and other 
 
CIV. CENSUS or EHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 reasons, iu the State Census Eeport of 1865, I merely gave an' 
 alphabetical list of the occupations as received from the enumer- 
 ators of the population, and made no attempt to explain the in- 
 consistencies and absurdities of the returns, nor to give any 
 classification of the occupations returned. 
 
 In the census of 1875 an effort was made, by written and ver- 
 bal instructions, to get more fall returns of the occupations, and 
 to avoid the most prominent defects of the returns in the pre- 
 vious census. This effort was, to a considerable extent, success- 
 ful. The number of Operatives (not specified) was reduced 
 from 2,950 in 1865 to 47 in 1875. The number of Merchants 
 (not specified) was reduced from 1,155 to 1,000, and generally, 
 the occupatians wei-e much more minutely specified, and more 
 correctl}^ given, iu the census of ]875, than in that of 1865. 
 
 In publishing the returns, in the present census, I have divided 
 the occupations into four classes, iu accordance with the classifi- 
 cation proposed and adopted bj' Gen. Francis A. Wallicr, the Su- 
 perintendent of the United States Census of 1870. I have also 
 given the returns by counties, and separating the city of Provi- 
 dence from the rest of the State. 
 
 The facts relating to the occupations of the people, as obtained 
 by the census of 1875, will be found in Tables XXIX. and XXX., 
 on pages 73 to 80, inclusive. Table XXIX. gives the number 
 of persons, including both males and females, engaged in each 
 special occupation, and in each of the four classes of occupa- 
 tions, in each county in the State, and in the city of Providence. 
 Tal)le XXX. gives separately the mimber of females engaged in 
 each special occupation in the State, and divided into classes. 
 
 The four classes of occupations given, iu accordance with the 
 classification of the United States Census of 1870, are First, of 
 persons engaged in Agriculture ; Second, of persons engaged in 
 Professional and Personal Services ; Third, of persons engaged 
 in Trade and Transportation; Fourth, of persons engaged in 
 Manufactures and Mechanical and Mining Industries. 
 
 It would not be difficult to find objections both to this classifi- 
 cation, and in some cases, to the arrangement of the occupations 
 under the different classes. It is not proposed, hy the Superin- 
 tendent of the United States Census, as perfect or free from 
 objections ; but it is offered as a useful classification, and under 
 the special cii'cumstances of occupations and industries iu this 
 country, perhaps as useful and better than any other classification 
 
OCCUPATIONS OF THE PEOPLP!. CV. 
 
 proposed. The reasons given by Gen. "Walker for its -adoption 
 may be found under the head of Occupations in the report upon 
 the United States Census of 1870. 
 
 The whole number of persons in Rhode Island whose occupa- 
 tions are given in the census of 1875, is 116,602, or 51,543 more 
 than in the census of 1865, an increase of 79.22 per cent. As 
 the increase in the total population from 1865 to 1875 was only 
 39.61 per cent., it is evident that the returns of the occupations 
 of the people were much more full in the census of 1875 than in 
 that of 1865. 
 
 In the census of 1865 the occupations given included 35.17 per 
 cent, of the total population of the State ; in 1875, the occupa- 
 tions given included 45.15 per cent. 
 
 In the census of 1865, the column for occupations in the popu- 
 lation blank, was headed : " Occupation of every person (Male 
 and Female) of 15 years of age and over," thus excluding 
 children. lu the census blank of 1875, the similar column was 
 headed : " Occupation of every person, Male and Female, in- 
 cluding children." The result was, as we shall see hereafter, 
 that, in the census of 1875, the occupations were given of 6,133 
 children, under 15 years of age. 
 
 We may class the population of the State, in regard to occu- 
 pation in 1875, as follows : 
 
 Number wliose occupations are given 116,602 
 
 Housekeepers, one to each family 55,245 
 
 Children under 15 years of age ; occupation not given 69,994 
 
 Persons of 70 years of age and over 7,133 
 
 Not accounted for 9,265 
 
 Total population of the State 258,239 
 
 We may safely conclude that females living at home without 
 special occupation, and persons incapacitated for labor by bodily 
 or mental disease, would equal 9,265 persons in the State, the 
 number in the above table "not accounted for." 
 
 The following shows the number of persons reported as engaged 
 in several prominent occupations in Ehode Island, according to 
 the national census of 1870, and the State census of 1875 :

 The slightest exainiiiation of the list of occupations and the 
 classification of them shows inconsistencies, absurdities and im- 
 possihiiities sufficient to make any one despair of finding any use- 
 I'ul truth in them. The numbers of persons engaged iu many 
 occupations evidently cannot be correct if they were so in 1870, 
 and other facts show that they were manifestly incorrect, both in 
 1870 and in 1875. The attempt to classify the occupations does 
 not increase our satisfaction with them. It would j-equire many 
 pages to give satisfactory reasons for placing various occupations 
 in the classes to which they are assigned in the table. 
 
 Without attempting to explain the inconsistencies in the figures 
 themselves, or the use that is made of them, we leave the tables 
 for others to use as they may think best. 
 
 Iu the tables of mauufactures, to be considered hereafter, we 
 find the number of hands employed as i-eported by the manufac- 
 turers themselves, and probably the figures there given show more 
 correctly the number of persons engaged in occupations connected 
 with the manufacturinif interests than the figures in the table ot 
 occupations. 
 
 Table XXX., on page 80 of the tabular portion of this vol- 
 ume, gives the number of females reported in the census as en- 
 gaged in each special occupation and class of occupations in 
 Rhode Island. 
 
 The whole number of females, whose occupation is given, is 
 28,090, of whom 8,523 are in the second class, engaged in Pro- 
 fessional and Personal Services ; 218 are in the third class, en- 
 gaged in Trade and Transportation ; and 19,349 are in the fourth 
 class, engaged in Manufactures and Mechanical Industries. In 
 the table of General Manufactures, on page 105, the number of 
 females employed in manufacturing and mechanical occupations is 
 given as 18,687. 
 
 In the national census of 1870, the reported occupations of 
 females were : first class, engaged in Agriculture, 13 ; second 
 class, in Professional and Personal Services, 7,330; third class,. 
 Trade and Transportation, 230 ; fourth class. Manufactures and. 
 Mechanical Industries, 14,142; total, all classes, 21,715. 
 
 Condensing and combining some of the occupations named, the' 
 number of females employed iu some of the most important, is as

 ratives, 3,675 ; and other operatives as follows : Bleachers, Dyers 
 and Scourers, Box-makers, Braid factory, Card-board factory, 
 Chemical works, Hair-cloth factory. Not specified. Paper mill. 
 Print works, Kubber factory, Screw factory, Tape and Lacing 
 factory, and Thread factory, — total, 2,087 ; Total of all female 
 operatives, 14,574. 
 
 The whole number of difiierent occupations of females as given 
 in the census of 1875, is 98 ; but of the whole number of females, 
 28,090, whose occupations are given, 14,574 are reported as ope- 
 ratives of different kinds, and 12,727 are reported in the first 
 nine occuf)ations given above. This makes 27,301 and leaves 
 only 789 in all the other occupations named in the table. 
 
 The facts given in the table afford abundant material for thought 
 and comment by those interested in the important subject of the 
 occupations of females. 
 
 Employment of Children. 
 
 In the census of the population of the State the enumerators 
 were directed to find the "occupation of every person, Male and 
 Female, including Children." In accordance with these instruc- 
 tions the returns show the occupation of 6,133 children in Rhode 
 Island under the age of 15 years. As the laws of the State place 
 restrictions upon the employment of children, under the age of 
 15, these returns seem to be interesting and important. They 
 are particularly important in connection with the subject of school 
 statistics and want of education, which we have already consid- 
 ered. The laws of Ehode Island relating to the employment of 
 children under the age of 15, are as follows : 
 
 " Sectiox 21. Ko minor under the age of twelve years shall be employed in 
 or about any manufacturing establishment, in any manufacturing process, or in 
 any labor incident to a manufacturing process." 
 
 " Section 22. No minor under the age of fifteen years shall be employed in 
 any manufacturing establishment in this State, unless such minor shall have 
 
OCCUPATIONS ; EMPLOTMENT OF CHILDREN. CIX. 
 
 attended school for a term of at least three months in the year next preceding 
 the time when such minor shall be so employed ; and no such minor shall be so 
 employed for more than nine mouths In any one calendar year."* 
 
 The meaning, object and intent of tiiese Statutes are perfectly 
 plain, and cannot be misunderstood. The law is an expression of 
 the principle universally recognized among the American popula- 
 tion of New England that every child in the community has a 
 right to a common school education, that the best interests of the 
 community as well as of the child require that he should receive 
 such an education, and that no private interests of parents or 
 employers should be permitted to deprive the child of his rights, 
 or his privileges in obtaining an education. The objects of the 
 law are good and commend there selves to the best judgment of 
 every good citizen of the State. 
 
 But it has long been well known that the law is a dead letter in 
 this State, and that no attention whatever is given to its provis- 
 ions, either by parents or by manufacturers. The following re- 
 turns of the census confirm this fact, and should awaken the atten- 
 tion of the people to the subject. 
 
 The first table, on pages ex. and cxi., shows the number of 
 children, under the age of 15 years, who are engaged in each 
 occupation, and each class of occupations, in each town and 
 county in the State. 
 
 The second table, on page cxii., shows the number, the Sex, and 
 the Parentage of the children in the whole State, in each year oj 
 age, from 5 to 14 years, inclusive, who are employed in the various 
 occupations named in the preceding table :

OCCUPATIONS OF CHILDREN. CXUl. 
 
 These tables show that there are G,133 children in the State, 
 iincler the age of 15 years, who arc employed in various occupa- 
 tions, as reported in the census of population, in most cases, 
 probably, by the parents themselves. Of this numlicr, 3,437 are 
 boys, and 2,696 are girls. 
 
 Of the whole number, 120 are employed in the first class. Agri- 
 cultural occupations : 495 in the second class. Personal and Pro- 
 fessional Services; and 181 in the third class, Trade and Trans- 
 portation. This leaves 5,337 engaged in the fourth class, Manu- 
 factures and Mechanical Industries. 
 
 If we turn to Table XXXV., on pages 104 and 105, of General 
 Manufacturing Statistics, we find that the number of children, in 
 the State, eniplo^'ed in manufactures, under the age of 15, as re- 
 ported by the manufacturers themselves, was boys, 3,879 ; girls, 
 2,631; total, 6,510; or 377 more than were reported by the 
 parents, in the census of population. It is proljable that the 
 number reported in the returns of manufactures is the nearest 
 correct. 
 
 In one town, Jamestown, no child under the ago of 15 was re- 
 ported as having jui occupation. In seven other towns the num- 
 ber reported was ten, or less, and generally there were very few 
 in the farminof towns, and laraje numbers in the manufactuiinir 
 villages. 
 
 The second table on pageexi., shows the sex^age and parentage 
 of the children, under 15 years, whose occupation is given in the 
 census. It seems that there are 1,258 children — 715 boys, and 
 543 girls, under the ago of 12 years, employed mostly in manu- 
 factuiing establishments ; the employment of whom in anj'' manu- 
 facture is expressly forbidden by the laws of the State. Besides 
 these there are 1,172 employed who are 12 years old and under 
 13; also 1,465 who are 13 and under 14; and 2,238 who are 14 
 and under 15, making a total of 4,875 children, with regular em- 
 ployment, who are 12 years old but less than 15. These are 
 nearly all in manufacturing towns, and in the same towns that show 
 the very large percentage of absentees from school. There can 
 be very little doubt that nearly all these 4,875 children are ille- 
 gally deprived of the opportunity to obtain an education which 
 the laws of the State provide for them. It cannot bo said that 
 no one has sinned, when these children grow up in ignorance, 
 and with the tendency to wrong that ignorance so often i rod-uces. 
 o 
 
CXIV. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 It is certain that botli the parents and the employers of the 
 children have grievously sinned both against the children and 
 against the State. 
 
 Looking at the ages of the children employed we find 599 who 
 are 11 years and less than 12 ; also, 433 between 10 and 11 ; 146 
 between 9 and 10; 64 between 8 and 9; 8 between 7 and S ; 5 
 between 6 and 7 ; and 3 children between 5 and 6 years old who 
 are reported as having a regular occupation in manufacturing es- 
 tablishments. 
 
 The objections to the employment of j'oung children in manu- 
 facturing or mechanical occupations do not relate alone to the 
 question of education; but pertain to every interest, phj'sical, in- 
 tellectual, spiritual and moral, of the child. The children are 
 unfitted p!i\sically for such emploj'mcnt. Their growth is stunted 
 b}' it, and their health is injured. Besides, the children have not 
 the judgment necessary to work among the machinery of the 
 mills, and they must be specially liable to accidents. Wo take 
 much interest in the prevention of ciuelt^'to animals; but, by 
 the employment of children in manufactories, wo permit cruelty 
 to children far more revolting in its nature, and infinitely worse 
 in its consequences, than any cruelty that can be inflicted on dumb 
 animals. We do not [)ermit parents to abuse their dumb animals ; 
 but we do allow them to abuse the physical and the intellectual 
 natures of their children so as to keep them as near as possible in 
 the condition of brutes 
 
 If a parent neglects his child until he becomes a truant, or a 
 vagrant, or commits some petty crime, the law lakes away the 
 child and puts it under the guardianship of the Reform School 
 during minority. It is a hard saying, but it is literally and em- 
 phatically true, that the condition of the child committed to the 
 Reform School is far better than that of the child, under the asre 
 of twelve years, who remains with its parents to be employed in 
 a cotton mill, or other manufactor}-. The children in the cotton 
 mills may well envy the lot of those who are committed to the 
 Reform School. 
 
 Let us sec what class of children is most sufferins; from this 
 cruelty of parents. The table on page cxii. shows the parentage 
 as well as the sex and age of the children under 15 years of age, 
 who are reported as having an occupation in Rhode Island. A 
 table already given on page xciv. shows, as obtained by calcula-

 This table shows very plainly the class of children who suffer 
 most from the avarice of their parents, and the violation of the 
 law against the employment of children. The table shows that 
 in a French Canadian population, under 15 years of age, of 
 4,097 there aie 1,664 children at work in factories, or 40.61 per 
 cent, of the whole number. This is one child in 2.46, and is a 
 very ranch greater proportion than in the children of any other 
 parentage. There are far too many of other races ; the Irish have 
 11.86 per cent., or one in 8.42 of their whole population by pa- 
 rentage, under 15 years of age, at work ; the English and Scotch, 
 10.12 per cent. ; the British American, not including the French 
 Canadian, have 9.52 per cent., &g. Of the whole foreign popu- 
 lation, by parentage, under the age of 15 years, 14.40 per cent., 
 
CXVI. CENSUS or EnODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 or one in (3.94, have regular employment, the greater portion of 
 them in manufactories. Of the whole American population, by 
 parentage, under the age of 15 years, only 2.23 per cent,, or one 
 in 44.67, are reported as having any regular occupation except 
 attending school. 
 
 This table compares the children at work with the whole popu- 
 lation under 15 years of age. The comparison of different 
 uationalities is correct in this wa}', but the statement would have 
 been more exact in regard to each if the comparison had been 
 with the population from 5 to 15 years of age. But we have no 
 table of the ages of the population, fully by parentage. The 
 proportion of the whole population under the age of 5 j'cars is 
 10.74 per cent. If we call this the proportion of that age of the 
 French Canadian population, we find that population, between the 
 ages of 5 and 15, to bo 2,G04, of whom 1,664 or 63.9 per cent, 
 are reported as having a regular occupation, mostly in cotton and 
 woolen nulls. These facts confirm the common opinion that the 
 French Canadian population, as compared with other classes in 
 the State, need most, and neglect most the benefits of education, 
 and that they, more than any other class, neglect the phj'sicaland 
 intellectual wants of their cliildren, and abuse them b_) compelling 
 them to work at the earliest possible age. 
 
 Further comment upon this subject is unnecessary. "We trust 
 it will receive the attention its importance demands. 
 
 IV. COMMENTS AND EXPLANATIONS UPON THE TABLES.— Continued. 
 (!).) AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS. 
 
 The Agricultural Statistics of Ehode Island, as obtained by the 
 census of 1875, will be found in Tables XXXI., XXXII. and 
 XXXIII., on pages 81 to 96, inclusive, in the second part of this 
 report. 
 
 The statistics of land, buildings, tools, live stock, &c., are lor 
 the first day of June, 1875 ; the statistics of some of the minor 
 products are for the year ending on that date ; while the statistics 
 of the principal farm productions arc, necessarily, for the year 
 1874. 
 
 The blank schedule for agricultural statistics in the census of 
 1875 was considerably changed and improved from that of 1865. 
 
AGRICDLTURAL STATISTICS. CXvii. 
 
 Some unimportant items were omitted, some items were added ; iu 
 some subjects, as in the acres of land, kinds of hay, &c., more divi- 
 sions were made, and an attempt was made to obtain much more 
 fully the number of horses and cows " not on farms." I tiiink the 
 statistics of a,2;ricnlture, in the census of 1875, are much more 
 fully and much more correctly reported than in any previous census 
 of Rhode Island, State or National. 
 
 Of course a State of only a little more than 1,000 square miles 
 of territory, with a hard, rocky, or sandy soil, and with a more 
 unfavorable climate, cannot be expected to compare in the quantity, 
 the variety, and the value of its agricultural productions, with the 
 many times larger territory, the richer soil, and the more favor- 
 able climate of the States of the West and South West. 
 
 But even in Rhode Island the agricultural interest is no unim- 
 portant portion of the industry of the State. By the census of 
 1875 the agricultural industry in Rhode Island employed 11,115 
 farmers and farm laborers, besides 628 gardeners and nurserymen. 
 It occupied 6,363 farms, valued, including buildings, at $28,892,- 
 336, with live stock valued at $2,728,812, and farming imple- 
 ments valued at $886,326. These figures show a considerable 
 increase over those of the census of 1865, and indicate that the 
 agricultural industry of the State is increasing iu importance. It 
 is true that the increase of manufacturing villages and of the man- 
 ufacturing population has created a greater home demand for cer- 
 tain agricultural products to the exclusion of others, and thus the 
 kind of crops, and the modes of farming have been greatly changed. 
 But it is probable that the variety, the amount, and the value of 
 the total agricultural products of the State were never greater 
 than at the present time, if as great. 
 
 The Statistics of Agriculture, in Table XXXI., are given by 
 towns. An examination of the figures for each town would re- 
 veal many interesting facts, and many peculiarities iu the products 
 of the several towns. But time and space do not permit this ex- 
 amination and comparison. They must be left to those who have 
 a special interest in the subject and better qualifications for its 
 consideration. We v.'ill here only consider the aggregate statis- 
 tics of the whole State. 
 
 The following shows the aggregates of several of the prominent 
 items in the agricultural industry of the State, as reported by the 
 national censuses of 1860 and 1870, and by the State censuses of 
 1865 and 1875 :

 The precediiig compurison of llie results from different censuses 
 would afford topics for extended comment. It is, perhaps, as well 
 to leave it with verj^ few remarks, to the stud^' of those interested 
 in the subject and familiar with it. 
 
 It will be noticed that the number of farms in the State, bj' the 
 two State censuses of 1865 and 1875, is very nearly the same, 
 and that the number by the two national censuses is very nearly 
 alike, and that the number by the State censuses exceeds the 
 
AGRICULTUE.AL STATISTICS. CXIX. 
 
 number obtained in the niitioniil censuses by nearly one thousand, 
 thus : 
 
 State (;ensus of 1865.,.. ..Farms, C,280; Census of 1875 Farins, 6,292. 
 
 National Census of 1860 .. .Farms, 5,364; Census of 1870 Farms, 5,342. 
 
 Somewhat similar facts will be noticed in the reported number 
 of acres of land in farms, and in the total value of farms, for the 
 whole State. The State censuses agree somewhat with each 
 other, and so do the National censuses; but, the State censuses 
 diifer widely from the National. 
 
 There seems to be a considerable decrease in many of the most 
 important agricultural productions, by the census of 1875, as com- 
 pared with previous censuses. This is specially noticeable in the 
 amount of wheat, rye, Indian corn, oats, and barley ; in the num- 
 ber of working o.xcn and swine; and in the amount of onions, 
 carrots, turnips, and peat. 
 
 In the census of 1875, a systematic effort was made to obtain 
 the number of horses and cows in the State " not on farms." This 
 was quite successful, the whole number of horses iu the State, 
 being 21, IGO, or over 0,000 more than were ever found in any 
 previous census. The 11,711 horses not on farms, in 1875, were 
 valued at $2,421, G35, or an average of $206.75 each. 
 
 It would be expected that the horses not on farms would have 
 a higher average value than those on farms, and that horses in 
 cities would average more than those in the country. We find as 
 follows, for horses not on farms : 
 
 Providence 5,123 horses Average value, $229.22 
 
 Newport 2,156 " " " 244.50 
 
 Pawtucket 1,158 " " " 194.63

 Providence County.. 8, 286 " " " 204.10 
 
 Washington County.. 690 " " " 160.37 
 
 In connection with the horses, 1,545 cows, " not on farms," were 
 found in the State, valued at $83,653, an average of $54.14 each. 
 
cxx. 
 
 CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 The total, 19,108 cows, in the State, as given in the preceding 
 comparative table, includes those not on thrms. 
 
 It will be noticed that the whole number of milch cows has in- 
 creased since 1865. There is also ti slight increase in the pounds 
 of butter made ; but there is a large decrease in the number of 
 pounds of cheese made in the State, and a large increase in the 
 amount of milk sold. During the year ending June 1, 1875, there 
 were 2,818,94!) gallons of milk, which, at 20 cents per gallon, 
 produced the sum of $563,790. 
 
 The average amount of wool to each sheep is veiy much less in 
 1875 than at previous dates. The reascni is, that, in 1875, the 
 number of sheep includes spring lambs that were raised for 
 slaughter. 
 
 In the blank echedulo for the statistics of Agriculture, in the 
 census of 1875, sub-divisions were made in some of the items, 
 and various new items were introduced. Six divisions were made 
 in the land composing farms, and the quantity of some of them, 
 compared with the census of 1865, was as follows : 
 
 Plowed Inud, 28,573 acres in 1S75, and 37,786 acres In 18CJ. 
 
 Mowing land, including bog-meadow, 115,050 acres in 1875, and 101,243 acres in 
 1865. 
 
 Pasture laud, 156,565 acres in 1875, and 152,467 acres in 1865. 
 
 Wood land, is 156,454 acres in 1875, and 169,399 acres by the United States cen- 
 sus of 1870. 
 
 The table of Agricultural Statistics of 1875, CTable XXXI.), 
 gives the number of acres, sown or planted, as ^vell as the amount 
 of the crop, in regard to several of the most important products 
 of farms in Rhode Island. The following shows the number of 
 acres devoted to certain crops, the amount raised, and the average 
 to the acre, compared, so far as possible, with the census of 1865 :

AGRIOULTUEAL STATISTICS. 
 
 CXXl. 
 
 These figures do not include the quantities reported on page 91, 
 under the head of "Additional Agricultural Statistics," as those 
 amounts were raised "not on iiu-ms,"but by persons planting from 
 one-fourth of an acre to one acre of ground. 
 
 Besides the 3,192 acres of Oats sown for grain, 1,366 acres 
 were sown with Oats for fodder. 
 
 The average amounts to the acre, in 1875, so far as the compari- 
 son can be made, are quite similar to those given in 1865. A 
 comparison of the average yield to the acre of several products 
 that constitute the staple products of the Western States, shows 
 that the average even of those crops is greater in New England 
 and in Rhode Island, than in the West. But though the average 
 crop per acre in New England may be greater than in the West, 
 the cost of production is so much greater that the crop may be 
 less profitable. 
 
 The general statement of the agricultural interests of the State 
 of Ehode Island, for the year ending June 1, 1875, may be given 
 as follows, compared with the year ending June 1, 1865 :

 In the cities of Providence and Newport the value of farms, as 
 
 given above, was $2,2,48,500 for 2,914 acres of land, in 1865, 
 
 and $3,569,400 for 4,069 acres in 1875, an increase of $1,320,- 
 
 900 in ten years. Of course, these values do not represent the 
 
 p 
 
CXXII, CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 value of the land for farming purposes, and a large deduction 
 should bo made in the amounts for a correct representation of the 
 subject. There was a considerable increase of land in farms, by 
 annexation, in the city of Providence during the. ten years. 
 
 It will be seen that there was a decrease in the value of live 
 stock on hand of $1,484,801 between 1865 and 1875 ; and also a 
 decrease of $2,512,919 in the value of crops produced. There 
 was also a considerable decrease in the value of animals sold or 
 slaughtered, and in the value of the products of market-gardens; 
 and an increase in the value of orchard products, and in the value 
 of eggs and poultry produced. There was also a large increase, 
 ($4,503,094,) in the value of farms in the State. It would be, 
 perhaps, difficult to explain exactly these differences in value ; 
 but wc may state in general terms some of the causes that have 
 produced them. 
 
 In regard to the increased value of farms it is due, to a great 
 extent, to the speculation that has been so rife in the last ten 
 years, increasing largely the nominal value of farms in the vicinity 
 of the cities and large villages. Thus there has been, in ten 
 years, an increase in the value of farms, in Johnston of 157(3,278 ; 
 in East Providence of $530,100; and in Cranston, notwithstand- 
 ing a large loss of territory, of $399,275, making an increase in 
 these three towns of more than one and a half millions of dollars 
 in the nominal value of farms. Of course this increase has nothing 
 whatever to do with the true agricultural interests of the State. 
 
 In regard to the decrease in the value of crops and of live stock, 
 we have already seen that there was a large decrease in the quan- 
 tities raised of many of the most important agricultural products, 
 and in the number on hand of several kinds of live stock. It is, 
 also, to 1)0 remembered, that the census of 1865 was taken just 
 at the close of the war when the values of all kinds of agricultu- 
 ral products weie very much greater than in 1875. Besides, dur- 
 ing the ton years from 1865 to 1875, large quantities of land in 
 the vicinity of the cities and manufacturing villages have been 
 platted into house lots for speculation and given up as farms, thus 
 decreasing, to some extent, the farm productions, of the State. 
 It is probable that these reasons are sufficient to explain the very 
 great decrease in the value of farm productions in 1875, as com- 
 pared with 1865. 
 
 The " Additional A(/ricicl(uraI Statistics, " on pages 90 to 96, 
 
AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS. CXxiu. 
 
 inclusive, furnish some interesting facts, to some degree impor- 
 tant, which though not required in the agricultural blanks were 
 given in the form of notes. Among the most important produc- 
 tions given in these notes wc find 408,114 heads of cabbage re- 
 ported in twenty-three towns, the greatest number in any one 
 to\^n being 80,000 in East Providence. There are, also, 14,996 
 bushels of tomatoes; 133,250 pounds of squashes; and 502 
 bushels of buckwheat. "\Vc also find on the same page (90) 
 11,(540 worth of asparagus ; $1,800 worth of celery ; $8,090 worth 
 of lettuce; and $1,575 worth of spinach. 
 
 On page 91 we find reported various vegetables and some farm 
 crops that were raised in different towns in the State, " not on 
 farms," but by persons planting from one fourth of an acre to one 
 acre of land. 
 
 On page 92 are given the statistics of nineteen green-houses, 
 all in Providence city. Among the curious and interesting facts 
 connected with them we find that one house during the year raised 
 400 orange trees and shipped them to Florida, where tliey find a 
 ready rav.rket because they are more hardy than the southern 
 trees. Another house reports various plants shipped to Texas, 
 Iowa, jSIinnesota, and Piinco Edwards Island. 
 
 A table on page 93 shows the number and value of horses and 
 cows "not on farms," so far as reported in each town in the State. 
 The total for the State is 11,711 horses, valued at $2,421,635; 
 and 1,545 cows, valued at $83,653. 
 
 The following table has been prepared for the purpose of show- 
 ing some important facts relating to the agricultmal interests of 
 Rhode Island, and is interesting and valuable for the comparisons 
 it gives between the different towns in the State. The table shows, 
 for each town and county : First, the pojoulation in 1875 ; Second, 
 the number of acres in farms, including the improved and unim- 
 proved land ; Third, the total value of thci farms, iuchiding build- 
 ings ; Fourth, the average value, including buildings, per acre, 
 of the land in farms; Fijth, the total value of all farm and forest 
 products in each town in the Slate, for the year ending Juno 1, 
 1875 ; Sixt/i, the average value to each inhabitant, in each town, 
 of the farm and forest products of the town ; /Seventh, the average 
 value of the farm and forest products of each town, to each acre 
 of land, improved and unimproved, iu each town :

AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS ; VALUE OF LAND. CXXV. 
 
 Tho preceding table contains many facts and will afford material 
 for much study and investigation. Some of the facts are very 
 surprising and may be difficult of explanation. Satisfactory rea- 
 sons can generally be given for the differences in values that will 
 be noticed in the different towns ; but some of them can hardly be 
 explained upon the theory that they are correct. We can only 
 refer, briefly, to the table, leaving it for the more careful study of 
 those who are familiar with the subject. 
 
 The average value per acre of land in farms shows very remark- 
 able differences in different parts of the Stale. The lowest value . 
 per acre given is $11.41 in tho town of West Greenwich; the 
 highest is $994.25 in the city of Newport. In Exeter, the ave- 
 rage value per acre is $12.4!i ; in Eichmond, $13.79; in Foster, 
 $17.45 ; in Charlestown, $18.89. On the other hand the average 
 value per acre of land in farms in Providence is $794.42; in 
 Pawtucket, §()34.24; in East Providence, $289.50. In thirteen 
 towns the average value given is over $100 per acre; in seven 
 towns it is less than $25 per acre. 
 
 We may remark in regard to this column of average value per 
 acre ; firU, It would appear that a different standard of value was 
 probably adopted by the enumerators, in the different towns, some 
 of them giving the value for farm purposes, others giving th& 
 actual speculative value without reference to its value for agricul- 
 tural purposes. Second, The effect of the vicinity of cities and 
 large towns in increasing the value of the land in farms, is plainly 
 seen in the very large average value in the two cities and in the 
 towns containing large manufacturing villages. A glance at the 
 column of figures shows this. Third, It is possible that in some 
 towns the value of laud in farms was intentionally given very low 
 for fear that, if the full value was given, the town's portion of the 
 State tax might be increased. This fear was expressed at the 
 time the census was taken, and an examination of the figures 
 seems to show that it had a certain influence. The average value, 
 per acre, including, as it does, the buildings, in several towns 
 certainly appears to be less than the truth. It would be a profit- 
 able investment to buy some whole towns at the values given for 
 the land, and let them grow up into forests. 
 
 The average value of tlje farm and forest products for the year, 
 to each inhabitant, is the smallest, 92 cents, in the city of Provi- 
 dence, and the largest, $173.90, in the town of Middletown. 
 
CXXVl. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 The average value of farm products to each inhabitant is $114.06, 
 for the whole of the towns of Xewport county, which is con- 
 siderably more than double the value in any other county. In- 
 deed, there are only two towns outside of Newport county, West 
 Greenwich and Exeter, in which the average value of farm pro- 
 ducts to each inhabitant is more than one hundred dollars. The 
 reasons that sua'o'est themselves for this larsje amount of farm 
 productions compared with the population in Newport county 
 are, that outside of the city of Newport, the population in the 
 county is almost entirely devoted to farming, and is not large, 
 there are no manufacturing villages, the land is generallj' fertile, 
 with less waste or unimproved land, than the average in the State, 
 and the cities of Newport and Fall Eiver furnish convenient and 
 favorable markets for the most profitable varieties of farm pro- 
 ductions. 
 
 The towns of Newport county have 1,031 farms, with 43,415 
 acres of improved land to 7,859 inhabitants. Kent county has 
 953 farms, with 43,604 acres of improved laud to 20,348 inhabit- 
 ants. This explains wlij- the average value of the farm produc- 
 tions, to each inhabitant, should be $114.06 in the towns of Xew- 
 port count}', and only $32.71 in Kent county. The average value 
 of the ftirm and forest productions to each inhabitant of the whole 
 State is $19.47. The average value is greater than this in every 
 town in the State except "Warren, Newport city, Lincoln, Paw- 
 tucket, Woonsocket, Providence, and Westerly. 
 
 The last column of the table shows the average value of the 
 farm and forest productions to each acre of land in farms, in each 
 town in the State. This column is a more correct test than any 
 other of the actual value of the farming interest, in different por- 
 tions of the State, and we find here no such great extremes of 
 values, as in the other comparisons. Of course the value of the 
 productions per acre, will dificr considerably, according to the 
 kinds of crops raised, the fertility of the soil, the skill shown in 
 the cultivation, the nearness to market, and other reasons. We 
 find, therefore, that the greatest average value of the farm pro- 
 ducts to the acre of land, in farms, is $38.80 in the city of Provi- 
 dence. After Providence, we find Bristol with an average value 
 per acre of $31.38; next, -North Providence, average $28.37; 
 next. East Providence, average $28.02 ; next, Middletown, $27.05 ; 
 next, Johnston, $24.80; next, Pawtucket, Woonsocket, Warren 
 and Barrington, averaging from $21.47 to $22.63. 
 
AGEICULTDEE : FARM WALLS AND FENCES. CXXvH. 
 
 The least value of the farm procliicts to the acre is in Charles- 
 town, $3.23 ; and no town in Washington county averages ten 
 dollars per acre of products. The average product for the whole 
 county is only $5.92 per acre. 
 
 By counties, Bristol is much the highest, the average product 
 for the whole county being $25.89 to each acre of land in farms. 
 The average product for the whole State is $10.43 per acre. 
 
 But this must suffice for this subject. We commend the table 
 to the careful study of the farmers of the State. 
 
 Farm Walls and Fences. 
 
 There arc many points in relation to the farm walls and fences, 
 in every agricultural community, that render the subject import- 
 ant to the agricultural interests. They are expensive, much more 
 so than is generally supposed by those who do not reflect upon the 
 subject ; the interest on their cost is a large tax upon the commu- 
 nity ; it costs a large sum annually to keep them in repair ; the 
 walls cost much more at first, but do not require to be rebuilt as 
 often as fences ; the best walls occupy much land, the use of 
 which is lost ; the best walls, also, furnish the best of hiding places 
 for mice and other vermin, that prey upon the crops; the long 
 established customs of the State have required an immense amount 
 of walls and fences on farms, which other and different customs 
 would render entirely unnecessary ; thus, the use of walls and 
 fences is solely to keep cattle and other animals from the crops. 
 If the cattle and other animals were kept in their own proper 
 places by walls and fences, all walls and fences upon lines of 
 roads, and a large part of those on the farms might be abolished. 
 It is said that the land is cleared up and made more valuable by 
 taking the stone to build walls. But it would be much less ex- 
 pensive, when practicable, to deposit the stone in places unfit for 
 cultivation and thus save the land the walls would occupy; and, 
 in many cases, the land would be largely increased in value, by 
 depositing the stones in deep, blind drains. 
 
 Such are some of the points that readily suggest themselves, 
 and which make the subject of great importance to the farming 
 interests of the State. Perhaps the further consideration of it 
 will show the subject to be more important than is generally sup- 
 posed. The entire lack of accurate knowledge in regard to the 
 amount and cost of the walls and fences on farms in the State, is, 
 
CXXVm. CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 perhaps, the reason that the subject has not attracted more inter- 
 est and excited more discussion. 
 
 In view of these facts I have obtained an accurate measurement 
 of the walls and fences on farms, in one town, which will, per- 
 haps, afford a standard for correct estimates in regard to other 
 towns. The town is North Providence, with Us present limils. It 
 is generally a farming town, with no large vilhtges. Its farms 
 have been cultivated for a long time, and are divided by walls 
 and fences in accordance with ihe ancient customs of this portion 
 of the State. The town contains at present 5.5 square miles of 
 territory, with a population of 1,303, or 236.9 inhabitants to each 
 square mile. In extent of territory it is the smallest town in the 
 State. It has 47 farms, containing 165 acres of plowed land, 52 
 acres of bog meadow, 695 acres of " other mowing land," 640 
 acres of pasture land, 711 acres of wood land, and 10 acres of 
 "other unimproved land," making a total of 2,273 acres of land 
 in farms.

 in the whole town, amount to 1,256 rods; and the House-lot 
 fences to 1,563 rods. 
 
 This comprises the facts in relation to Walls and Fences in a 
 single town. Shall we assume that this town is a fair represen- 
 tative town, upon this subject, of the whole Slate, and proceed to 
 draw conclusions from the facts obtained? T have been inclined 
 to give the facts alone, and leave them to the consideration of 
 others to draw such conclusions as they may think proper. But 
 it is the opinion of some who are well acquainted with the sub- 
 ject, that the town of North Providence fairly represents the 
 average of the whole farming portion of the State, in the amount 
 and expense of its walls and fences ; that the rods of walls and 
 fences to each acre of land in North Providence are about the aver- 
 age for the State. It is said that in the northern towns of the 
 State the lots of land are generally smaller and the amount of 
 walls and fences greater than in the southern portions. 
 
 Assuming North Providence to be an average for the State, 
 whether right or wrong, it may, perhaps, excite some attention 
 to the subject and lead to further investigation, if we make some 
 calculations, applying the facts in that town to other towns and to 
 the whole State. All persons are at liberty to accept or to re- 
 ject the basis adopted and to make others to suit themselves. 
 
 Before we proceed fuither it is necessary to fix upon some sum 
 as the average cost of the walls and fences in North Providence, 
 and in the State. Here it is, of course, more opinion or judg- 
 ment. I have received the following statement from one familiar 
 with the subject : 
 
 " There are walls on the Town Parm, and on other estates, in North Provi- 
 dence, that actually cost twenty dollars, or more, for each running rod ; but 
 these are not to be considered. On an average, fifty years since, I should esti- 
 mate the cost of the average walls upon farms in North Providence, say 10,000 
 rods, at §5 per rod, equal to §50,000 ; and the balance, 30,243 rods at $3 per rod, 
 equal to $90,729 ; total, $140,729, for 40,243 rods of farm walls in the town. A 
 fair average cost, fifty years since, was |3.50 per rod for farm walls in that town. 
 At the present time the cost of building the same walls would be at least double, 
 or $7 dollars per running rod. The fences cost, on an average, one dollar per 
 rod, fifty years since, and there would not be much difference now ; but the 
 fences require to be renewed as often as once in sixteen or eighteen years." 
 
 Such is the carefully considered estimate of an intelligent resi- 
 dent of North Providence ; but this is the highest estimate I have 
 received. Others differ widely from this and from each other. 
 Q 
 
cxxx. 
 
 CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAKD ; 1875. 
 
 The lowest estimate I have received is three dollars per running 
 rod as the average cost of the farm walls, and one dollar per rod 
 for the fences. Wishing to keep within the limits of truth, and 
 give a proper consideration to the different estimates, it may be 
 fair to call the average cost of farm walls and fences, in North 
 Providence, three dollars per rod. 
 
 The census reports 47 farms with 2,273 acres of land, in North 
 Providence, and the cash value of the farms, including buildings, 
 as $296,100. There are 40,243 rods of stone walls, and 6,564 
 rods of fences upon farms in the town, making a total of walls 
 and fences of 46,807 rods, not including door-yard nor house-jot 
 fences. At three dollars per rod these farm walls and fences 
 amount to $140,421. This is nearly one-half the whole value 
 of ail the farms, including buildings. The average ^amount of 
 walls and fences in North Providence is 20.6 rods to each acre of 
 land. 
 
 As so much of this is wholly a matter of estimate or opinion it 
 does not seem proper to occupy the space necessary^ to give a 
 table of estimates for every town in the State. Others can readily 
 do this if they choose. It will be sufficient here to give the re- 
 sults by counties. 
 
 Takinof the measurements and estimates for the town of North 
 Providence as a correct standard for the whole State, the follow- 
 inf trble shows the number of acres of land in farms, the reported 
 value of farms including buildings, the number of rods of walh 
 and fences, and tiae cost of walls and fences, in each county ; in 
 the cities of Proviilence and Newport ; and in the whole State :

FISHERIES AND SHORE STATISTICS. CXXXl. 
 
 Ill Providence and Newport the value of farms is enormously 
 disproportionate to tlie quantity of land and the length and cost of 
 walls and fences. If we omit these cities from the above table the 
 true agricultural statistics will be more correct, and will be as fol- 
 lows : The Slate of Rhode Island, omitting the cities of Providence 
 and Newport, has 476,859 acres of land in farms, of an estimated 
 value, including buildings, of $25,322,!^36. It also has 9,823,295 
 rods, equal to 30,960 miles, of farm walls and fences, at an esti- 
 mated cost of 129,469,885. The walls and fences cost $4,146,- 
 949 more than the whole estimated value of the farms upon 
 which they stand, iucluding farm buildings. 
 
 The very great differences will be noticed, in the preceding table, 
 in the cost of walls and fences as compared with the value of 
 the farms, in different counties. Other points of interest and im- 
 portance in the table, will be noticed, and deserve the investiga- 
 tion of those familiar with the subject. 
 
 IV. COMMENTS AND EXPLANATIONS UPON THE TABLES.—Continued. 
 (c ) FISHERIBS AND SHOKE STATISTICS. 
 
 The statistics of the fisheries and of shore farms in the State, 
 as reported by the census of 1875, are given in Table XXXIV., 
 pages 97 to 102, inclusive. 
 
 The first attempt to collect these statistics in Rhode Island, was 
 made by the " Rhode Island Society for the Encouragement of 
 Domestic Industry," with the consent of the Census Bureau, in 
 connection with the United States Census of 1860. The results 
 were very imperfect and incomplete, as will be seen by a com- 
 parison given hereafter, with the products ascertained by subse- 
 quent censuses. The Society, however, while fully recognizing 
 the incompleteness of the returns obtained, is entitled to great 
 credit for the attempt. They remark very justly and pertinently: 
 
 " The Committee, however, are satisfled that they have commenced the in- 
 quiry. They did not expect fnll and accurate returns, but they have obtained 
 enough to show the great importance of the inquiry, and thereby to secure future 
 attention to it." 
 
 In the State census of 1865 the work begun by the Society was 
 continued. Blanks were prepared for these statistics, and returns 
 
CXXXll. 
 
 CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 of some description were received from every portion of the 
 shore line of the State. Ti^e results far exceeded those obtained 
 in 1860 ; but were still evidently much less than the truth. They 
 did, however, as in 1860, " show the great importance of the in- 
 quiry, and thereby secure future attention to it." 
 
 In the census of 1875 the blanks were somewhat changed and 
 improved, and use was made of previous experience to secure, so 
 far as possible, full and accurate statistics of this important in- 
 dustry of the State. The statistics obtained are given in the 
 table, and show a very large increase of products over the previ- 
 ous censuses. Perhaps the importance of the subject will be best 
 seen by comparison of the results at different dates. 
 
 I do not include the United States Census of 1870, as the sta- 
 tistics of fisheries in Khode Island, obtained by that census, are 
 too few to be ()f any value for comparison. The only products 
 given in 1870, for Rhode Island, are 12,082 bushels of oysters ; 
 600 gallons of fish oil, valued at $300; also, 97,568 barrels of 
 miscellaneous fish ; and total value of all products of fisheries in 
 the State, $124,505. 
 
 The following shows the general statistics of the fisheries and 
 shore farms in Ehode Island, as obtained by the State census of 
 1875, and compared with those obtained by the State census of 
 1865, and by the Rhode Island Society in 1860 :

 There is a very great range in the prices reported for fish, by 
 different individuals, and in different towns, as will be seen in the 
 table on page 101. Thus, for the whole State, the prices of salt 
 hay range from one to fifteen dollars per ton ; of sea drift from 
 fifty cents to six dollars per cord ; offish for manure from twenty 
 cents to three dollars per barrel ; of fish for oil and guano from 
 twenty-five to eighty cents per barrel ; and of fish for food from 
 two mills to ten cents per pound. 
 
 The average for the whole State of all the prices reported iu 
 1875 and in 1865, was as follows : 
 
 AVERAGE PRICES. 
 
 1875. 1865. 
 
 Salt Hay, per ton $9.46 $8.76

 Pish for OU and Guano, per barrel 0.41 Not stated. 
 
 Fish for Food, per pound 0.039 0.049 
 
 The comparisons given show an enormous increase in the pro- 
 ducts of the fisheries in the State, during the last ten years. This 
 is, to a considerable extent, owing to the more complete returns 
 in the census of 1875. The increase, in 1875, in the amount of 
 fish caught for food was 5,278,500 pounds, or 214 per cent, over 
 the amount reported in 1865. The increase in the bushels of 
 oysters produced was 581 per cent., and in the scallops, 651 per 
 cent. 
 
 The production of oysters and of scallops is iu the hands of 
 comparatively few persons, so that it is not so difficult to obtain 
 returns, as in the case of other shell fish. The collection of the 
 statistics of clams dug in the State is attended with peculiar diffi- 
 culties, and the returns given are only estimates, without any cer- 
 tain foundation for them. As is well known in Khode Island, 
 
CXXxiv. CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 every inhabitant of the State has fi-ee access to the shores of tide 
 water, and is at liberty to dig and carry away as many clams as 
 he pleases. This is done daily in ihe summer season by persons 
 from a considerable distance inland. Large quantities are also 
 dug by parties to sell to the shore resorts, and other markets, 
 though it is said that a large portion of the clams eateai at our 
 shore resorts in the summer season, are brought from Massachu- 
 setts. Under these circumstances, it is of course impossible to 
 obtain any exact information in regard to the quantity of clams 
 produced in the State. The quantity given in the census tables 
 is undoubtedly less than the truth. 
 
 The quantities and the value of the productions of the fisheries 
 and shore farms in the State, as shown by the tables of the census 
 of 1875, must attract attention. They are certainly important, 
 not only for what they are at present, but also because they are 
 capable of an almost indefinite increase. The great extent of tide 
 water shores, in proportion to the size of the State, make the 
 subject one of peculiar importance to us. Besides this there are 
 very extensive salt water ponds in the southern portion of the 
 State, and numerous small streams and fresh water pouds every- 
 where abound. It is probable that, with the aid of scientific cul- 
 ture, and with a slight expense, within a few years the products 
 of the fisheries will equal in importance those of agriculture. 
 The subject is already receiving the attention and the aid of our 
 General Assembly, and there can be no doubt of the result. 
 
 IV. COMMENTS AND EXPLANATIONS UPON THE TABLES.— Continued, 
 (d.) MAXUFACTUEES. 
 
 In all past censuses ui this country, State and National, the 
 collection of the statistics of manufactures has been made by the 
 enumerators of the population. These enumerators have gener- 
 ally obtained their positions through political or other influence, 
 and in nineteen cases in every twenty, have had no good qualifi- 
 cations for the work. Their highest aim in the performance of 
 their dnties has generally been to obtain the pay for their time. 
 Of course even in the enumeration of the population their work 
 has been only imperfectly done, and has been full of errors. 
 
STATISTICS OP MANUFACTURES. CXXXV. 
 
 In the collection of the statistics of manufactures, the case has 
 been still worse. These enumerators in ninety-nine cases in every 
 hundred have not had the slightest knowledge of the manufac- 
 tures in regard to which they are required to beek information. 
 They have, therefore, heen at the mercy of the manufacturers, 
 without any possible means of correcting, or of judging of the 
 correctness of the answers they receive. Any manufacturer who 
 wishes to conceal the results of his business or who wishes to ex- 
 aggerate its importance, can do so with perfect impunity, and past 
 experience shows that very many of those fi'om whom the statis- 
 tics of manufactures are obtained, will do one or the other. The 
 enumerator has no means of correcting the information received, 
 and no ability even to perceive that a correction is necessary. 
 
 Besides this, the pay for the collection of the statistics of manu- 
 factures, in most censuses, has been ridiculously inadequate, and 
 the enumerator has not even had the hope of gain as an induce- 
 ment for him to do the work. 
 
 The result has been, what might have been expected, that the 
 statistics of manufactures, in all our censuses, have been compara- 
 tively valueless. The only correct information in them has been, 
 perhaps, an approach to the number of establishments engaged in 
 manufactures. 
 
 Whenever any correct and valuable information in relation to 
 manufactures has been obtained in past censuses, it has been ob- 
 tained, as in the National census of 1870, by ignoring the clumsy 
 and inadequate methods provided in the census itself, and by ob- 
 taining suggestions and information from experts thoroughly famil- 
 iar with the subjects. In this way, in 1870, General Walker, 
 superintendent of the census, was enabled to supply the deficien- 
 cies in the returns, so as to make the statistics of certain import- 
 ant branches of manufactures apparently full and complete. 
 
 In the collection of the statistics of manufactures in the Rhode 
 Island State census of 1875, the work was entirely distinct from 
 the census of population. Under the liberal provisions of the 
 census Act, a copy of which is given on page 140, in the Appen- 
 dix, special agents were employed in collecting the statistics of 
 manufactures. In each of some of the most important branches 
 of manufactures in the State, a single person was employed who 
 had special knowledge of them and was an expert in them, to col- 
 lect the statistics in the whole State. It is evident that such per- 
 
CXXXVl. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ,' 1875. 
 
 sons would have great advantnges in collecting these statistics 
 over persons taken at random, with no special knowledge of the 
 kind. Such experts could at once detect errors and misrepresen- 
 tations, and often having a few general facts, they could assist the 
 owners of the establishments in ffiving the information. In not a 
 few cases, in the cotton and woolen manufactures, the agents from 
 their minute knowledge of the work, could miike as correct a re- 
 turn of the business as the owners themselves. 
 
 Special agents were appointed for each town, or district, to col- 
 lect the statistics of all other manufactures than those already 
 referred to. These agents were selected with particular reference to 
 their capabilities and their knowledge of the manufactures in their 
 districts. 
 
 The circulars and blanks used in the collection of the statistics 
 of manufactures, are given in the Appendix, on pages 151 to 159 
 inclusive. It will be noticed that the blanks are very much more 
 full, and call for many more particidars than have ever been found 
 in censuses. The special blanks for cotton, woolen, iron, and 
 jewelry manufactures could not be filled out, except b}' persons 
 acquainted with the various kinds of business ; but with an expert 
 in each manufacture the blanks would call for and obtain very ex- 
 tensive and very minute information. These special blanks, with 
 the circular, on page 155 in the Appendix, were sent beforehand 
 to all the manufacturers in each branch named, urging their coop- 
 eration in making the census as complete as possible. The blanks 
 for general manufactures with the instructions were also exten- 
 sively distributed in advance of the visits of the agents. 
 
 Such were the preparations made in the State census of 1875, 
 for collecting the manufacturing statistics. What was the result? 
 
 To say that the result equalled, in every respect, what the pre- 
 paratious would seem to promise, would not be true. The agents 
 were not all equal to their duties. Some were wanting in the 
 necessary natural qualifications, and others had too many natural 
 disqualifications. 
 
 While a considerable number of the manufacturers gave their 
 cordial assistance in carrying out the objects of the census, there 
 were not a few who hindered and obstructed the work, by delays 
 in furnishing information, or by false or deficient returns. 
 Through the knowledge of the special agents, however, these 
 
STATISTICS OF MANUFACTURES. CXXXVll. 
 
 falsehoods were generally corrected and the deficiencies supplied, 
 so that I have the ntmost confidence in the final resulls in regard 
 to some of the most prominent manufiicturing interests of the 
 State. 
 
 But the greatest loss to the census, and especially to the sta- 
 tistics of manufactnrcs, was in the death of Mr. Isaac Peck, the 
 chief assistant in the census office. Mr. Peck had a thoroughly 
 practical knowledge of all the details of the manufacture of cot- 
 ton goods, and understood the relations of such exact knowledge 
 to the interests of the manufacturers and of the State. He pre- 
 pared all the blanks for the manufacturing statistics of the census, 
 and was himself eno;ao;ed in the collection of the statistics of the 
 cotton manufactures for the whole State. He died before that 
 work was completed. His death has seriously interfered with all 
 the work on the census from that date to the present time, and is 
 especially felt now, in the consideration of the subject of manu- 
 factures. It has delayed for some months the completion of this 
 report, as it was found impossible to fill his place satisfactorily. 
 
 Such were the preparations for the collection of the statistics 
 of manufactures in the census of Rhode Island in 1875, and such 
 were the hindrances experienced in the work. The results so far 
 as expressed in tables, are found on pages 103 to 136, inclusive, 
 of the second part of this volume. An examination of the tables 
 will show, that in all particulars the facts are as fully and as cor- 
 rectly given as in any previous census, while in regard to several 
 manufactures, including the most important in the State, the sta- 
 tistics are very much more full, more complete, and more correct 
 than in any previous census, State or National. 
 
 The first table of manufacturing statistics. Table XXXV., on 
 pages 104 and 105, shows some general facts in relation to the 
 manufactures of every description in each town and city in the 
 State. We find from this table that the statistics of 2,019 manu- 
 facturing establishments in the State are reported with a capital, 
 including real estate and machinery, of $49,942,871 ; paying out 
 $23,707,513 in wages during the year; using materials to the 
 value of $76,715,970; and giving products of the value of $126,- 
 659.875. 
 
 The capital invested was equal to $193, and the ■value of the 
 
 K

 products for the year equal to $490 for each iuhabitant of the 
 State. 
 
 The following shows some general facts from this table, com- 
 pared with similar facts from the State census of 1865, and the 
 National census of 1870. The figures, in each case, are for a 
 single year :

 This comparison shows a large increase, during the last ten 
 years, in the number of establishments engaged in manufactures, 
 in the State, and in the results of tlieir business. It will be 
 noticed that there was an increase, from 1870 to 1875, in every- 
 thing except the capital invested. In that, a decrease was reported 
 of near]}' seventeen millions of dollars. The reason of this great 
 difi'ercncc is probably this : The capital invested has been gener- 
 ally understood, in censuses, to mean some indefinite sum of 
 money, and of other property, used in some way in carrying on 
 the business, and has therefore been an item of information which 
 it was impossible to obtain correct]}', and whicli there was a spe- 
 cial reluctance to attempt to give, on the part of manufacturers of 
 all kinds. There has been, therefore, very little if any value, 
 in the returns of censuses, on this point. 
 
 In the census of 1875, the "capital invested " means only the 
 value of tlie real estate, and of the machinery and tools employed 
 in the manufactures. The attempt was made, in all the large 
 manufacturing establisliments to obtain this information correctly, 
 and I thinly the values given are more correct than usual in cen- 
 suses. It is true that the fluctuations in the value of manufac- 
 turing property, from time to time, are often very great ; but this 
 alone could not explain the large decrease in value reported, be- 
 tween 1870 and 1875. 
 
MANUFACTURING STATISTICS BY COUNTIES. 
 
 CXXXIX. 
 
 It may be remarked that, in 1865, the value of the raw mate- 
 rials and the value of the products were much larger than at the 
 other dates, in proportion to the amounts and quantities of the 
 articles manufactured. 
 
 The amount of wages paid during the year, as reported by the 
 census of 1875, if divided by the whole uumbor of persons em- 
 ployed shows that all the persons of every description, in every 
 kind of manufacturing labor in Ehodc Island, received an average 
 of almost $420 each, for ihe year. 
 
 The following table shows some general statistics of all the 
 manufactures reported in each county in the State, by the four

 The preceding table shows, generally, an increase in the manu- 
 facturino- interests in each county and in the whole State. The 
 chano'es are generally what would be expected, and are capable of 
 explanation, with one exception. It is the large decrease in cap- 
 
Cxl. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 ital invested iu manufactures, between 1S70 and 1875. We have 
 already noticed this, on page cxxxviii. The present table shows 
 that, between I860 and 1870, there was an increase of $29,462,- 
 869 iu the manufacturing capital of Providence county, including 
 the city. It also shows that iu the same county there was a de- 
 crease of §16,146,747 in this capital, between 1870 and 1875. It 
 is hardlj' possible to explain these large fluctuations, except on the 
 theory that there nnist have been a serious error iu the returns in 
 1870. 
 
 Table XXXVI., on pages 106 to 112, inclusive, shows the sta- 
 tistics of the General Manufactures in Ehode Island, by indus- 
 tries, for the year euding June 1, 1875. 
 
 It will not be difficult for the experienced statistician to detect 
 errors and inconsistencies in this tal)le, and judged by a standard 
 of absolute correctness, it might very properly be condemned. 
 But this might be said of all census tables. Absolute correctness 
 is unknown iu them. 
 
 I can only saj- that in the preparation of this table great exer- 
 tion was used to make it as correct as possible. The agents em- 
 ployed to collect the statistics Avere selected with care, and could 
 hardly fail to be better qualified than the average of those usually 
 employed in censuses to collect the statistics of manufactures. It 
 is my opinion that the facts given will compare favorably', iu re- 
 gard to correctness, with those usually given in censuses. 
 
 In some cases there are apparent errors that are not so in fact. 
 For example, the item of Woolen jManufactures gives 81 estab- 
 lishments, while the special table of Woolen ilanufactures. Table 
 XXXVIII., gives only 67. The special table is correct. In 
 makins; Table XXXVI. , the different mills in the same estab- 
 lishment, or belonging to the same manufacturing company, were 
 reckoned as separate establishments, thus making a greater num- 
 ber than the truth. Some other slight changes were also made in 
 the special tables. 
 
 It will be noticed that more items of information are given iu 
 the table than are usually contained in similar tables. Some of 
 these items are important. Instead of " capital stock ' as usually 
 given, the table gives the estimated value of the real estate, and 
 of the tools and machinery employed iu the different industries. 
 This distinction makes some apparent errors iu comparison with 
 previous censuses ; because some quite important manufactures 
 
STATISTICS OF COTTON MANUFACTURES. Cxli. 
 
 are carried on, almost entirely, in hired rooms, and of course the 
 individual returns would give no value of real estate in the busi- 
 ness. 
 
 The number of hands employed in each industry, by age and 
 by sex, and the average daily wages of each class, are items of 
 much interest and importance. 
 
 The table gives nuioli iiiformation in relation to 102 different 
 industries in the State, and cannot fail to be of value to all who 
 are iuterestcd in the subject. 
 
 STATISTICS OF SPECIAL MANUFACTURES. 
 Cotton Goods. 
 
 Under the head of " Statistics of Special Manufactures," Table 
 XXXVIL, of cotton goods, on pages 113 to 121, inclusive, 
 shows the statistics of the cotton manufactures in each town and 
 county iu the State, for the > ear ending June 1,167,5. An ex- 
 amination of , this table, and of the bhink on page 156, in the 
 Appendix, will show that the attempt was made to obtain statis- 
 tics of this, the most important industry in the State, which would 
 be of great value and interest not only to the public, but also to 
 manufacturers themselves. 
 
 For various reasons the attempt was only partially successful. 
 The blank itself, prepared by an expert in the cotton manufacture, 
 was of a character that none but experts could correctly fill out.. 
 It was found that, in many establishments, the books were not 
 kept with sufficient minuteness and accuracy to make it possible 
 to till the blank correctly without much trouble. Not a few of 
 the manufacturers took much interest in the searching minuteness 
 of the blank, and acknowledged themselves greatly indebted to 
 its suggestions. 
 
 Mr. Peck, who prepared the blank, collected with it the statis- 
 tics of about one-half the establishments for cotton manufacture, 
 in the State. His intimate knowledge of the subject enabled him 
 to sive oreat assistance to the manufacturers in filling the blanks, 
 and also enabled him to detect and correct the intentional or acci- 
 dental errors that were made in the returns. 
 
 After the death of Mr. Peck we were, to a considerable extent, 
 at the mercy of the manufacturers, and obliged to accept such 
 returns as they furnished. These returns were like those usually 
 obtained iu censuses ; some of them fully, honestly and accurately 
 
cxlii. 
 
 CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 made ; some of them honestly but inaccurately made ; and some 
 of them intentionally and deliberately fiilsified. 
 
 The result is, that of the 128 cotton manufacturing establish- 
 ments in the State, from which returns were received, the statis- 
 tics of about 70 are fully and faithfully made, and are quite cor- 
 rect. The remainder cannot be so fully depended upon ; but, 
 undoubtedly, they are as full and as correct as the average returns 
 in censuses, and in some respects more complete. 
 
 The followins; shows a few general facts relating to the cotton 
 manufactures of the State, as obtained by the census of 1875, 
 and compared with similar facts by the three preceding censuses 
 of the State. The figures for 1865, 1870 and 1875, include 
 among the cotton manufactures cotton cloth, cotton yarn, twine, 
 thread, etc. ; cotton wicking, calico printing, shoe and corset 
 lacings, and wadding and batting. In 1860 bleaching and dying 
 were also included :

 A comparison of these figures shows remarkable fluctuations in 
 the value of products, as compared with the cost of the raw mate-

 rial and the pounds of cotton used. Thus, less than twenty-nine 
 millions of pounds of cotton in 1865, made sixteen millions of 
 dollars worth of products more than sixty-five millions of pounds 
 of cotton in 1875. The reason for this is evident in the remark- 
 ably high prices of cotton and cotton goods at the close of the 
 war in ISOo. 
 
 The number of establishments engaGrod in the cotton manufac- 
 tures in 1875 differed only one from the number in 1865; but 
 there was in 1875, as compared with 1865, a very large increase 
 in the business of cotton manufacturing, as shown b}' the increase 
 of nearly nine millions of doll^irs in the capital invested ; of 6,802 
 in the hands employed ; of 36,671,742 in the pounds of cotton 
 used; of 631,326 in the number of spindles; of 9,616 in the 
 number of looms; of 46,374,409 in the number of yards of cloth 
 made. There was, however, a decrease of nearly fourteen mil- 
 lions of dollars in the cost of the raw materials, and of over six- 
 teen millions of dollars in the value of the products. 
 
 In July, 1865, the average value of print cloths in the Provi- 
 dence market was about 20 cents per yard; in July, 1875, the 
 average was about 5 cents per yard. 
 
 The amount of cotton used in Rhode Island during the year 
 ending June 1, 1875,. was 65,631,368 pounds, equal to 218,771 
 pounds, or over 109 tons for each of the 300 working days in the 
 year. 
 
 The amount of cotton cloth of all kinds made during the year 
 was 207,088,380 yards, or 117,663 miles of cloth. The daily 
 product of cotton cloth was 690,294 yards, or 392 miles, which 
 is equal to 1,150 yards for each minute of the ten working hours 
 of each day. The product of cotton cloth, during the year, was 
 equal to 802 yards for each man, woman and child in the State. 
 If the cotton cloth made during the year would average seven- 
 eighths of a yard in width, it would be sufficient to cover 37,438 
 acres of land, or fifty-eight and one-half square miles. 
 
 Waste. 
 
 In the blank for cotton manufactures, in the census, very minute 
 enquiries were made in relation to the waste in the process of 
 manufacture. In each establishment the weight of cotton used 
 was returned and also the weight of all the products. This en- 
 abled us to obtain the gross waste, by calculation. Besides this, 
 
Cxliv. CENSUS OF EHODE ISLAND; 18/5. 
 
 « 
 
 questions were asked of each establishment to obtain the amount 
 of waste in pounds, in the several processes of manufacture. We 
 therefore obtained, in pounds weight, the amount of waste, in each 
 establishment, in two ways; by calculation, and by the returns of 
 the owners. 
 
 From the 128 cotton manufacturing establishments in the State, 
 I have selected 74, the returns of which seem to be carrfully pre- 
 pared, and from these the statistics in regard to waste are as fol- 
 lows : 
 
 Cotton used in 74 establishments, pounds 38,517,89-t 
 
 Weight of all products, pounds '. 30,817,600 
 
 Amount of waste, by calculation, pounds 7,700,294 
 
 Amount of waste, by returns, pounds 6,222,200 
 
 Percentage of waste, by calculation , 19.99 
 
 Percentage of waste, by returns 16.15 
 
 The largest percentage of waste returned by any single estab- 
 lishment was 27.2 By calculation the waste of the same estab- 
 lishment was 18.5 per cent. The smallest percentage of waste 
 returned by any single establishment was 7.6. By calculation, 
 the waste of the same establishment was 15.4 per cent. 
 
 In all these calculations reference is had only to the gross waste, 
 or the actual weiglit of the waste. The net waste, or the actual 
 moue}' loss from waste, is not considered. Of course, in the gross 
 waste, there must be very great differences in different establish- 
 ments, depending upon various circumstances, and especially upcui 
 the kind of product made. Thus, in the manufacture of very fine 
 thread, the gross waste would be very large, while in the manu- 
 facture of cheap cotton twine the gross waste might be very 
 small. With this explanation, the largest and smallest percentages 
 of waste given in the returns may reasonably be supposed to be 
 correct. 
 
 The returns show the amounts of the various kinds of waste, 
 as cop waste, spinners' waste, drawing v^aste, flyings, strippings, 
 picker waste, sweepings, bags, and bands ; but I have not thought 
 it necessary to compile the facts at this time. They may be con- 
 sidered hereafter. 
 
 Occupations in Cotton Mills. 
 
 In the statistics of special manufactures, on page 116, we find 
 that there are 19,979 persons employed in the manufacture of 
 
OCCUPATIONS IN COTTON MILLS. cxlv. 
 
 cotton goods ill the Stale of Rhode Island. Of this number 
 1,928 males, and 1,656 females ; total, 3,584, are under 15 years of 
 age; and 6,941 males, and 9,454 females, total, 16,395, are of the 
 age of 15 years and over. Having obtained lists from several prom- 
 inent cotton manufacturing establishments, it is found that these 
 19,979 hands employed are divided among 33 different occupations, 
 or occupations with different names. It was intended to divide the 
 whole number in the State, among each of the different occupa- 
 tions named ; but it was found to be impossible, as different 
 names seem to be given to the same occupation in different estab- 
 lishments ; or, at any rate, the names given to the different occu- 
 pations are not so exactly defined as to be uniformly used with 
 the same meaning in all the establishments. Names of occupa- 
 tions are given in some establishments that are not found in 
 others. 
 
 On account of these difBculties, 1 have only divided the 19,979 
 hands employed, among the different rooms in the cotton mills, and 
 tind the result as follows :

 The table of statistics of the Cotton Manufactures in the State, 
 contains many facts that might be made the basis of extended com- 
 ments. There is no doubt that such comments, founded upon a 
 careful and thorough study of the table, might be of very great 
 value to the public as well as to manufacturers ; but to show their 
 greatest value they should be made by an expert entirely familiar 
 with all the details of the subject. Not possessing the requisite 
 special knowledge and not having been able to obtain the desired 
 assistance, it seems to me better to leave the study of the table to 
 those specially interested in it. Besides, the publication of this 
 report has been already too long delayed. I shall therefore finish 
 the subject of cotton manufactures with brief notices to call atten- 
 tion to two or three points in the table. 
 
 It will be noticed that the town of Lincoln is the firot town in 
 the State in the extent of its cotton manufactures. Though each 
 of several other towns has a greater number of cotton manufac- 
 turing establishments those in Lincoln seem to be much more ex- 
 tensive. The value of real estate, the value of machinery, and 
 the amount of horse power, including steam and water, engaged 
 in the cotton manufacture, are very much greater in Lincoln than 
 in any other town. Of all the Frame and ]Mule Spindles in the 
 State, 17.3 per cent., or more than one-sixth, are in the town of 
 Lincoln. During the census \ear that single town paid $1,207,- 
 753 in wages to operatives in cotton mills, and consumed y,879,- 
 571 pounds of cotton. The products of the yeiir were more than 
 twenty-six millions of j'ards of cotton cloth, which, with other 
 products of cotton manufacture, were valued at $3,285,907. 
 Other comparisons and items of interest in the cotton manufac- 
 tures of different towns, may be found in the table. 
 
 The table gives the anioimt of flooiing in cotton mills, in each 
 town in the State. When too late, it was ascertained that a few 
 very large mills were omitted in this column, which destroys the 
 value of this item of information. The column, though incom- 
 
AVERAGE WAGES IN COTTON MILLS. Cxlvii. 
 
 plete, shows 6,844,072 sqiuire feet of floors in cotton mills in the 
 whole State. This is equal to more than one hundred and fifty- 
 seven (157) acres. 
 
 The average daily wages of all the persons employed in cotton 
 mills in each town in Khode Island, is given in Table XXXVII., 
 on page 116. The classification of the operatives given, is ac- 
 cording to age and sex, no reference being made to the kind of 
 labor in which They were engaged in the mills. 
 
 In the average daily wages paid, the towns of West Greenwich, 
 and a portion of the establishments in Richmond and Westerly, 
 seem to be exceptions to the rest of the State, and not fair repre- 
 sentatives of the wages paid in the cotton manufacturing estab- 
 lishments of the Stale. 
 
 Omitting these towns, we find the highest and lowest average 
 daily wages paid to each class of persons in the several towns of 
 the State to be as follows : 
 
 Malet. under 15 years of nge. The highest average of the daily 
 wages is 62J cents, in the town of Cumberland ; the lowest aver- 
 age is 37i cents in Warren and in Newport. The average for the 
 whole State is 52 cents per day. 
 
 Males of 15 years and over. The highest average is §1.83 per 
 day in Pawtucket; the lowest is $1.29| per day, in North 
 Kingstown. The average for the State is $1.51| per day. 
 
 Fe7nales under 15 years of age. The highest average is 56-| 
 cents per day, in Smithfield ; the lowest average is 331 cents per 
 day, in Warren. The average for the whole State is 50^ cents 
 per day. 
 
 Females of 15 years and over. The highest average per day 
 is $1.21 in Smithfield and North Smithfield; the lowest average 
 is 80 cents per day, in Warren. The average for the whole State 
 is $1.00| per day. 
 
 Much other information was called for in the blanks for cotton 
 manufactures, and was obtained in the returns, which has not 
 been tabulated. We may name the weight of the cloth of ditfcr- 
 ent kinds, the "number of the yarn " used, the " reed and pick," 
 the " price paid per cut for weaving," the "length of cut," &c. 
 Besides this, other information was obtained which was common 
 to other manufactures, as for example, the mode of hcatino-. 
 
Cxlviii. CENSUS or EHODE island ; 1875. 
 
 the mode of lighting, the "head of water in feet," and the 
 " cubic feet of water available per minute." Some of these facts 
 are of importance and may be made use of hereafter. For the 
 Ijresent we leave the subject of the statistics of the cotton manufac- 
 tures in Ehode Island. 
 
 STATISTICS OF SPECIAL MAXrFACTUEES.-Coutimied. 
 Woolen Goods. 
 
 Table XXXYIIL, on pages 122 to 127, inclusive, shows the 
 statistics of the Woolen Manufactures in each town and county in 
 Rhode Island, for the year ending June 1, 1875. 
 
 The statistics of the Woolen Manufactures in the whole State 
 were collected by Mr. Henry Pollock, of Woonsocket, who was 
 recommended as intimately acquainted with every process in this 
 branch of industry, and abundantly qualified to judge of the 
 accuracy of the returns, and to correct any error, accidental or 
 intentional, that might be found in them. The returns were all 
 obtained by him, and, in very many cases, were prepared with his 
 assistance. After being received thev were all carefully and criti- 
 cally examined by him, and duplicate copies were made with such 
 corrections as his knowledge of the business authorized. 
 
 Having been prepared in this way I have entire confidence in 
 the statistics given in the table and believe that they represent the 
 Woolen and AVorsted Manufactures of the State very much more 
 correctly than they have ever been represented in any previous 
 census. I am sure that they represent the facts far more correctly 
 than did the original returns of the establishments. If there are 
 any important errors in the figures they must have been made in 
 the pre])aration of the tables, and did not exist in the returns. 
 
 In the census of 1875, under the head of woolen goods, there 
 were included, as in the previous State census, all kinds of woolen 
 and worsted cloths, including Kentucky Jeans, woolen shirtings, 
 linse3's, lastings and seiges, etc., together with shoddy, woolen 
 yarn, worsted braid, cardigan jackets, nubias, shawls, cut flocks, 
 etc. 
 
 A comparative statement of some of the prominent items in the 
 woolen manufactures of the State, is as follows :

 In 1865 there were reported 159,143 blunkets made; in 1875, 
 the worsted braid and lacings were reported as 810,500 dozens, 
 in 1870 as 651,090 j5om?icZs, and in 1865 as 9,747,000 yards. In 
 1875 there were reported 260,000 pounds of .shoddy made in Lin- 
 coln and Smithfield ; and in 1865, 134,000 pounds. 
 
 In 1875 there were reported in the woolen and woi^ted manu- 
 factures of the State, 2,850 looms, and 211,912 spindles; in 
 1870 there were reported 3,383 looms, and 215,973 spindles. 
 
 The amount of "capital invested," as given above, in 1875, in- 
 cluded only the value of the real estate, amounting to the sum of 
 $3,890,200; and the value of machinery, amounting to $2,814,- 
 500. 
 
 It will be seen from the table that, in 1875, the woolen and 
 worsted manufactures in the whole State used 50 steam engines, 
 of a total of 4,377 horse power; and 97 water wheels, of 4,266 
 horse power. 
 
 In 1870, there were employed in the same manufactures, 43 
 steam engines with 3,383 horse power, and 72 water wheels with 
 3,428 horse power. 
 
cl. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 The whole number of hands employed in the woolen and worsted 
 manufactures in the State, as reported by the several establish- 
 ments in 1875, was 8,557. Of this number, G41 males and (5G8 
 females, total, 1,309, were under 15 years of age ; and 4,153 
 males and 3,095 females, total, 7',248, were 15 years and over. 
 
 The returns gave the names of 71 ditferent occupations into 
 which these 8,557 hands employed in woolen and worsted mills, 
 were divided. Ail of these ditferent occupations were not found 
 in every mill, so that the same difficulty as in the cotton manufac- 
 tures, was found in dividing the whole number of hands correctly 
 among all the different occupations named. I have, therefore, as 
 in the report on cotton manufacture-^, divided the whole number 
 of hands employed in the State, in the proper propcntions among 
 the different rooms, as given in the full returns of a large woolen 
 mill, which is taken as the standard for all in the State. The re- 
 sult is as follows :

 Comii.iring the average by towns of the daily wages paid in the 
 woolen and worsted manufacture, with the average of the daily 
 wages paid in the cotton manufacture, we find the following: 
 
 From 
 
 Males tinder 1 5 years 80 61 
 
 Males 15 years and over 1 32 
 
 Females under 15 years 55 
 
 Females 15 years and over . . 90 
 
 The whole amount of wages paid in the manufacture of woolen 
 and worsted goods, during the year, is reported as $3,001,014. 
 The number of hands, of all ages and sexes, employed is 8,557. If 
 we call 300 the number of working daj's in the year, the result 
 for the year is 2,567,100 days' work in the woolen and worsted 
 mills. Dividing the whole amount of wages paid hy the number 
 of da}s' work, it gives $1.17 as the average daily wages of all 
 classes of hands employed. The total amount of wages paid in 
 the woolen maiuifacture in the whole State is a little more than 
 ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per day. 
 
 Woolen Goods, Materials Used. 
 
 The statistics of the quantities and the value of the materials 
 used in the manufacture of woolen goods in Rhode Island are 
 given on pages 124 to 126 of the tables. The principal materials 
 are 17,258,549 pounds of wool, 1,668 pounds of silk, 2,383,822 
 pounds of shoddy, 4,523,280 pounds of cotton, 4,140,275 yards 
 of cotton warp, 365,131 pounds of worsted yarn, 259,114 pounds 
 of flocks, and $128,102 worth of cotton yarn. Besides these 
 there are $1,141,020 worth of drugs and dyes, nearly a million 
 and a half poinids of soap, with oil of various kinds, coal, wood, 
 etc., etc. ; the whole value of all materials being $11,803,014. 
 The amounts of the different materials and the proportions to each 
 other in the several towns in the State, will be seen in the table, 
 and might afford an interesting subje( t for study and comparison. 
 
 It will be noticed from the figures on page cxlix., that there is 
 a very large increase in the materials used in 1875, as compared 
 with 1870 ; while at the same time there is a large decrease iii the 
 
WOOLEN GOODS : MATERIALS USED. cHli. 
 
 amount of cloth made. Thus, iu 1875, of the chief substances 
 used in the manufacture of woolen cloths, there were 17,258,549 
 pounds of wool, 4,523,280 pounds of cotton, and 2,383,822 
 pounds of shoddy. This gives a total of 24,105,(351 pounds of 
 textile materials, besides cotton warp, yarn, etc. From this 
 amount of materials, 18,155,379 yards of cloth were made. 
 
 But in 1870, according to the National census, 17,038,106 
 pounds of similar materials produced 21,903,819 yards of cloth. 
 In other words, 17,038,106 pounds of material in 1870, produced 
 3,748,440 yards of cloth more than 24,165,651 pounds of mate- 
 rial in 1875 ; as follows : 
 
 Woolen Goods Manufacture. 1875. 1870. 
 
 Domestic Woo] used, pounds 13,322,742 13,649,720 
 
 Foreign Wool used, pounds 3,935,807 772,247 
 
 Cotton used, pounds 4,523,280 1,697,139 
 
 Shoddy used, pounds 2,383,822 919,000 
 
 Total materials used, pounds 24,165,651 17,038,106 
 
 Cloth made, yards 18,155,379 21,903,819 
 
 We omit other materials and other products in both years. 
 
 It needs no argument to show that the figures for one or the 
 other of these dates must be wrong, and no amount of reasoning 
 or explanations can possibly make them consistent with each 
 other. Let us e.xamine them. 
 
 The average weight of woolen cloths for winter wear is from 
 eleven to thirteen ounces per yard, and for light weights for sum- 
 mer wear, the average is about eight ounces per yard. If we ex- 
 amine the figures, as given in the census of 1870, we find the 
 average of all the textile materials used, to be less than 12.5 
 ounces for each yard of cloth, of which the wool comprises only 
 10.5 ounces. This is the weight of the wool in its original state 
 before the process of manufacture is begun. But in the first pro- 
 cess, in the scouring of the wool before carding, it shrinks from 
 30 to 50 per cent., the finer grades shrinking the most. 
 
 In the process of manufacture there is a further shrinkage in 
 weight of from 10 to 15 per cent., so that, according to the cen- 
 sus of 1870, there could not have been more than an average of 
 six or seven ounces of material left in each }ard of cloth weigh- 
 ing 11 to 13 ounces. Of course it is impossible that the returns 
 
 T 
 
Cliv. CEKSUS OF KHODE ISLAND ,' 1875. 
 
 could have lieeii correct. It is probiibly certain that the amount 
 of foreign wool, shoddy :uid cotton, reported iu the census of 
 1870, wiis considerably less than ihe truth, ami that the amount 
 of cloth reported was greater than the truth. 
 
 Accoidiiig to the census of 1875, there was an average of 21.2 
 ounces of the raw material of all kinds, for each yard of cloth, 
 of which wool comprised 15.2 ounces. Of course it will not be 
 understood that all the materials named are used in all the cloth 
 made in the State. In some of the largest manufactories of 
 woolen goods, no cotton or shoddy is iised, while in some towns, 
 the amount of cotton and shoddy used in woolen manufactures, is 
 greater than that of wool. 
 
 STATISTICS OF SPECIAL JIANUTACTURES.— Coutinned. 
 
 Print Worlis and Bleadieries. 
 
 The statistics of print works and bleacheries in Rhode Island, 
 for the year ending June 1, lS75,are given on pages 128 and 129 
 of the tables. The general facts relating to the print works have 
 been included with those relating to cotton manufactures ; but 
 there are many points of interest in them, peculiar to themselves 
 and not connected with other cotton products. The following 
 shows some facts relating to the print works in the State in 1875, 
 compared with similar facts from the National Census of 1870 :

 In the table on page 128, from which the above sUitistics are 
 taken, for the capital cmplo^'ed, the value of the real estate and 
 of the maehinery alone, is given as follows : Real Estate, $1,200,- 
 000; Machinery, $1,3()8,000; Total, $2,568,000. These values 
 were the estimates of the agents employed, no values being given 
 in the returns from the establishments. Whether these values are 
 less than the truth or not, the figures given for this item in the 
 census of 1870 arc evidently too large. 
 
 In the same table, on page 128, near the bottom, the value of 
 Acids used in Bieacheries, should be $26,899, instead of $88,90.5. 
 
 In the comparison with the census of 1870, on the preceding 
 page, it will be noticed that in 1870 the yaids of Prints made 
 were precisely the same as the yards of print cloth used. 
 
 If the census marshals had been familiar witli calico printing it 
 would have occurred to them that the cloth might stretch in print- 
 ing, and as improbable that the yards of calico would be exactly 
 the same as the yards of cloth used. According to the census of 
 1875, we find that 178,234,405 yards of print cloth made 186,- 
 474,863 yards of calico, an increase of 8,240,458 yards, or 4.6 
 per cent. The increase in the length of the cloth alone amounts 
 to 4,682miles, and the whole amount of calico made in the State, 
 in the year, is equal to 105,951 miles. 
 
 STATISTICS OF SPECIAL MANUFACTUEES.— Continued. 
 Iron Manufactures. 
 
 The statistics of the iron manufactures in Ehode Island, as re- 
 turned by the census of 1875, are found in Table XL., on pages 
 130 to 136 of this volume. The statistics of blacksmithing, as 
 ordinarily carried on, are omitted from the table ; because it is 
 impossible to obtain them with any approach to correctness, and 
 when obtained they are not of any special importance, not being 
 properly manufactures. The table includes the statistics of the 
 manufacture of files and rasps ; hardware ; horse shoes ; iron 
 castings, light and heavy, of every description ; machinery of all 
 kinds, large and small; muskets; nails, cables, etc.; screws; 
 steam engines, boilers and locomotives; tools of all kinds; wire; 
 and other miscellaneous articles. 
 
 If we take the same manufactures, so far as possible, in the 
 
clvi. CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 censuses of 1865 and 1870, we have the following comparative 
 statistics :

 The table of statistics of the Iron IManiifactures contains many 
 facts relating to machines used, matei-ials used and products, not 
 given in previous censuses, and which therefore cannot be com- 
 pared with previous statistics. They will be found important to 
 those interested in the subject. 
 
 It was my intention to present the statistics upon several other 
 important interests of the State, and to illustrate the statistics of 
 the manufactures by a map and diagrams. But the ditEculty in 
 obtaining suitable assistance, and the unavoidable delay, which 
 has already been explained, seem to render it necessary to close 
 the report here. I will only add one or two recapitulatory and 
 additional tables.

 ences in the value of the total products, in proportion to the pop- 
 ulation in the different towns in the State. Thus in Cbarlestown,

 manufticttu'cs, only amounts to $72^'^Jq for each inhabitant in the 
 town. But in Warwick the total products amount to $904j-yg for 
 each inhabitant; and in Pawtucket the value of the total products 
 is equal to $9493^52. for each inhabitant. 
 
 In the whole State the value of the total products is $133,025,- 
 291, which divided among 258,239 persons, the total population, 
 is equal to SSlS-jig^jj for each person. In 1865, the total products 
 amounted to $111,118,886, which was equal to $601 for each of 
 the 184,965 inhabitants at that time.

103 CENSUS or RHODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 The situation aud natural features of the State of Ehode Island 
 are, of themselves, sufficient evidence that the statistics of the 
 fisheries, and of the farms bordering upon the tide water, must be 
 of considerable importance. "We find them, therefore, to be of 
 importance actually, and especiallj^ in their relations to the size of 
 the State. 
 
 Thus, the State with a total area of only a little over 1,000 square 
 
 miles, and with a continental shore-line of only 45 miles, has 320 
 
 miles of shore washed by the ebbing and flowing tides. Five of 
 
 the thirty-six towns in the State are situated on islands. 
 
 " The bays embraced within the State abound with flsh, many kinds of which 
 are excellent for food, while others are used for the manufacture of flsh-oil and 
 for manures. The shores and shoals of these bajs, and of the numerous and 
 extensive salt ponds near the southern coast, abound with shell-fish. Besides 
 this, every ebbing tide leaves, on almost every portion of these shores, a rich 
 and valuable deposit of sea- weed and drift." 
 
 The " Rhode Island Society/ for the Encouragement of Domes- 
 tic Industry " first attempted to obtain the statistics of fisheries 
 and shore farms, in connection with the United States Census of 
 1860. The returns wei-e incomplete, though sufficient to show 
 the importance of the subject. 
 
 In the State Census of 181)5, blanks were used for these sta- 
 tistics, and the returns were published. The results were much 
 more full than were obtained in 1860, though still evidently in- 
 complete. The total value of the products of fisheries and shore 
 farms, for the year ending June 1, 1865, was $422,412. 
 
 The returns of the State Census of 1875, of these statistics, 
 are given in the preceding pages. The total value of the pro- 
 ducts of fisheries and shore farms, as obtained hj this Census, is 
 SI, 337, 087, showing a large increase over that of previous Cen- 
 suses. For reasons obvious on reflection, the collection of these 
 statistics has many and peculiar difficulties. The influence of these 
 difficulties, and their eifect upon the results, will be considered in 
 another place. 
 
 The following is a list of the dilferent kinds of fish caught for 
 food, in the salt waters of the State, as reported in the Census of 
 Jime 1, 1875 :

 towns are expected to nominate and recommend tlie agents to he employed In taking the

 These agents should he, and must be, persons of intelligence, easy and polite in their 
 intercourse with the people. They must be able to write a good and plain hand, to spell

 character and qualifications of each person before a recommendation is granted. 
 
 Thenumber of agents needed in each town is not yet determined; but it is desired 
 that each Town Council should nominate a number equal to one for each thousand of 
 the population. If all are not employed, a selection can then be made.

 as described above to take the census in your town.

 INSTRUCTIONS 
 
 Enumerators of Population, 
 
 EDWIN M. SNOW, M. D., 
 Superintendent of the Census. 
 
 INSTEUCTIONS. 
 
 To THE Enumekatoks : 
 
 The work on the census must be begun at noon on the first (lay of June, 1875, and must 
 ■ be continued diligently until completed. 
 
 Unless you can write a plain hand, easily read, and spell correctly, you had better de- 
 cline the appointment before you begin the work. The writing must be with pen and 
 black ink, and must be written with ink at the time the inquiries are made. It will not 
 answer to write with a pencil, to be written over afterwards. There is a piece of blot-- 
 ting paper in each fold of the blanks, which should be used to prevent blotting. 
 
 Particular care must be taken to make the writing plain, so that it cannot be mistaken, 
 for anything different from what is intended. Make the figures especiall3- distinct. 
 
 For convenient reterence, the columns in the blanks are numbered at the top. The^ 
 figures at the sides of the pages, and also the dark blue lines across the pages, are 
 merely for the purpose of guiding the eye, so as to keep the particulars relating to each 
 person on the same line. 
 
 2)28<ric<».— Each enumerator will have a single, separate district assigned him, with, 
 clear and well defined boundaries. Be sure that the boundaries of your district are per- 
 fectly understood before you begin, and when you have finished, be certain that you 
 have obtained the name and other particulars relating to every human being, (man, 
 woman and child,) who was living within the limits of your districted noon on the first day 
 of June 1 1875. Do nothing outside of the first district assigned you until that district is 
 perfectly finished. 
 
 Blanks. The blanks are in folds of one, two, three, four, five, or six sheets. The folds- 
 of more than one sheet are stitched, and in these stitched folds, the sheets must never, in 
 any case, be separated. 
 
 .OS-Youwill fill out the head of eBcry /las'e with the number of your district, and the 
 name of the town. Tou will also number each page from the beginning to the end of 
 your district. As the pages are double, place the numbers of the pages only on the left- 
 hand corner of each page as it is turned over. 
 
144 CENSUS OF RHODE ISLAND ; 1875. 
 
 .^- At the top of the fourth column of the blanks, the word "street" is printed. In 
 country towns, write here the name of the road, oi village, or any other name by which 
 the locality is commonly known. 
 
 «S=-Please read and consider carefully the following directions in relation to filling 
 the blanks. 
 
 1st Colujix. Dwelling housfs numbered in the order of msilation. Under this head, give 
 the number of the dwelling houses in the order of visitation ; the first house visited 
 being number 1; the second house visited number 2; the third, number 3; and so on to 
 the last house in the district. Each house having a separate entrance is to be consid- 
 ered as one dwellingiouse^ though it may contain one or more families. There may 
 be several houses in a block, but it they are separated by walls, and have separate out- 
 side front entrances, each is to be considered as one dwelling house, and is to be num- 
 bered as such. If a house is used partly for a shop, store, office, or for other purposes, 
 and partly for a dwelling house, it is to be nutabered as a dwelling-house. 
 
 Hotels, poor-houses, asylums, prisons, jails, boardiUfi schools and other institutions, 
 are each to be numbered as a dwelling-house ; but should be marked as *' hotel," '■ poor- 
 house," Ac. 
 
 «S» When a dwellinghouse ia found not occupied, put the number in the proper place 
 and write the words *■ not occupied" against the number, leaving the rest ol ihe line 
 across the page blank. 
 
 2. LwclUng Bouses; Wood, Bri^k or Stone. In this column, against the number of each 
 dwelling-house, write \V., B. or S., indicating the principal material of which the house 
 is built. 
 
 ^Ir' The blanks for the cities of Providence and Newport are diflferent. In those cities 
 place the letters W., B. or S., (for wood, brick, or stone,) directly under the number of 
 the house in column 2, 
 
 3. Families numbered in the order of visitation. Under this head, number each family as 
 visited, from the first family visited to the last in the district. 
 
 B5' the term " fam ily " is meant either one person living separately in a house, or part 
 of a house, and providing for hiuistlf, or several persons living together. Thus a family 
 may be one person living alone, or any number of persons living together and provided 
 for by a common head. The resident inmates and regular boarders of each hotel are to 
 be all reckoned together as one family, and the inmates of each jail, poor-house, board- 
 ing-school, or other institution, are to be reckoned together, including the keeper and 
 officers, as one family. 
 
 4. The name of every Person. iS:c. Be sure and give the name, plainly written, of every 
 individual, from the oldest to the youngest, who was a member of the family at noon, on 
 the first day of June, 1S75. Include, as in the famUy, those tcmporarUy absent in the 
 armj- or navy, at school, at sea, traveling, &c. 
 
 All members of the family are to be included who were living at noon, on the first day 
 of June, though they may have died after that hour; but children born after that 
 hour, are not to be reckoned. Transient persons at hotels are not to be included in the 
 family; but permanent boarders should be included. 
 
 In taking the census of a family, write the names in the following order: Beginning 
 with the father as the head of the family, then the mother, then the children in the 
 order of age beginning with the oldest, then servants, boarders, and other persons. If 
 the father or mother, or both be dead, begin with the ostensible head of the family. 
 
 5. Age. If the individual is one year old, or over, give the age at the last birthday, 
 in years only, in the first of the three columns under the head of •' Age." If less than 
 one year and more than one month, give the age in months in tlie second column only. 
 If less than one month, give the age in days, in the third of the three columns. 
 
 Take special pains to give the exact age, as nearly as possible, of each individual. If 
 it is impossible to get the exact age, give it as nearly as possible, and write the word 
 " about " against the age as given. Leave no Individual with age not stated. 
 
 6. Sex. In this column write the letter M. or F., meaning male or female, against the 
 name of every individual. Leave no blanks. 
 
 7. Color. In this column write W., or B., or JL, (meaning white, black or mulatto,) 
 against the name of every individual. In case of Indians or Chinese, write Ind., or Chi., 
 as the case may be. 
 
APPENDIX. 
 
 145 
 
 8. Relation to the head of the family. In this column begin with the " Head of the fam- 
 ily," and then write against every other individual the connectidn or relation to the 
 " Head," as '■ wile," " child," '■ father," " mother," " aunt," " servant," " boarder," &o., as 
 the case may be. 
 
 9. Civil Condition. In this column write M., S., W., or D., (meaning married, single, 
 widowed, or divorced,) against the name of every individual. 
 
 10. Place of Birth. If born in Hhofle Island give the name of the town or city ; if else- 
 where in the ITuiled States, give the name of the State, as Mass., Conn., Vermont, \ir- 
 ginia, Maryland. &c.; if in other countries, give the name of the country, as England, 
 Ireland, Scotland, Germany, Canada, Nova Scotia, &o. Get the birtli-place of every in- 
 dividual. Let there be no " unknown " in the returns. 
 
 .8®- The annexation of East Providence and Pawtucket to the State, and the changes 
 in town lines within a few jears, may cause some perplexity in giving the birth-places. 
 The rule must be to give the hiitU-place of each individual, as it was when the im/ividual was born. 
 Thus, those born in East Pjovidence and Pawtucket, before they were annexed to the 
 State, must be put down as born in Massachusetts; those born in Lincoln, North Smith- 
 fleld, and Woonsooket, south of the river, before the division of Smith4,eld, must pe 
 put down as born in Smithfleld ; those born in the tenth ward of Providence before its 
 annexation to the city, must be put down as born in North Providence, and the same 
 rule with South Providence, Pawtucket west of the river, and with the portion of Bris- 
 tol annexed to Warren. 
 
 11. Parentage. The parentage of each individual depends upon the birth-place of his 
 or her parents, and has no connection with his or her own birth-place. Thus, if both 
 parents of a person were born in the United States, the person is of American parent- 
 age wherever he or she was born ; if both parents of an individual were born in lre_ 
 land, the individual is of Irish parentage whether born in Ireland, England, the United 
 States, or elsewhere; and so with other nations. 
 
 If the father of an individual was born in England, and the mother in Ireland,, the pa- 
 rentage of the individual should be put down E & I; if the father of an individual was 
 born in the United States and the mother in Germany, the parentage of the individual 
 should be put down A & G, &o. Be sure and get the information with reference to 
 every individual; let there be no blanks. 
 
 The abbreviations for parentage may be as follows ■. A = American, I = Irish, E = 
 English, S = Scotch, Swe = Swedish, Sp = Spanish, G = German. F = French, It = Ital- 
 ian, D = Dutch, (i. e, of Holland,) Port = Portuguese, B A = British American, &e., &c. 
 
 12. Cannot read and writey 10 years old and over. In this column if the individual can 
 read snd write, leave It blank; if he or she can read but cannot write, make a single 
 mark under the "W"; if he or she can neither read nor write, make a mark both under 
 the '* R" and under the " W." 
 
 Eeading and writing do not refer to the English language alone. If an individual can 
 read and write in any language, he or she is to be considered as able to read and write, 
 
 13. Occupation. Give the occupation, as far as possible, of every individual, male and 
 female, and including children. Do not use general terms like mechanic, laborer, mer- 
 chant, agent, ovej'seer, manufacturer, &c. ; but state the kind of mechanic, laborer, 
 merchant, &c. If an operative or workman in a mill, state the kind of mill, as cotton, 
 woolen, &c. Give the specific kind of labor performed in mills, as spinner, weaver, 
 dresser tender, &c. Make as particular distinctions aspos^sible in all occupations; thus 
 distinguish between stone and brick masons, between Are and life insurance agents. 
 
 14. Voters. In this o'olumn, make a mark against the name of every male person, over 
 21 years of age, who has the constitutional qualificailons of time of residence, property, &c., 
 to make them voters, whether their names have ever been placed on voting lists or not. 
 
 15. Attending School. The object of this column is to ascertain who have attended 
 school, and the number of months they have attended, during the year ending June 1, 
 1875. Write in this column, against the name of each individual who has attended 
 school, the letters "Pub.," "Se.," or " Calh." with figures indicating the number of 
 monWs the individual has attended school during the year. Thus, " Pub. 10," " S(;. 7," 
 "Cath. 8," mean Public Schools, 10 months; Select Schools, 7 months; Catholic Schools, 
 8 months.

146 CENSUS OF KHODE ISLAND; 1875. 
 
 16. Whether Deaf and Dumb, Blind, Insane or Idiotic. Wlienever a person is found 
 afiiictecl in these wfiys, write against Ms name, in this column, the words Deaf and 
 Diimb, or Blind, or Insane, or Idiotic, as the case may be. 
 
 i6®"It is expected that especial care will he taken to obtain full information relating 
 to every individual in the State, and that there will be no blanks or " unknown." 
 
 ,6®^ In case there are marked errors or deficiencies, that injure the value of the cen- 
 sus, or render it neccssaxy to clo the work over, no pay will be allowed for the work 
 done. 
 
 As soon as any enumerator has completed his district, and is sure that it is all correct, 
 he should enclose all the returns in the portfolio, tie them up strongly, and send them 
 to m.y office, No. 37 South Main street, Providence. 
 
 jfiiSir It is expected that in Providence the returns will be all complete and returned 
 within one week from the fiist day of June, aud thai the returns for the rest of the State 
 will be completefi and returned on or before the fifteenth day of June.

 tics of every living human being In the district. Make returns as soon as completed to 
 my oflicc, No. 37 South Main street, Providence. 
 
 It is expected that by polite persuasion there will be no difficulty in obtaining all the 
 information required, and every one is expected to succeed by politeness if possible. In 
 case of necessity, however, reference may be made, t/i^niiy, to the Seventh section, of the 
 State Law. providing for a Census, which says :— '' If any person shall refuse to give the 
 information lequired to be obtained by the provisions ot this Act, he shall forfeit and. 
 pay a sum not exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars." 
 
 The following notes are suggestedby questions that have been asked, since the blanks 
 were distributed. 
 
 Population. The inmates of the Reform School, State Prison, and of Insane Hospitals, 
 Work Houses, Jails and Poor Houses will be enumerated at those Institutions and not 
 at their homes. 
 
 Pupils attending Boarding Schools, Academies, or in College, who have homes in the 
 State will be enumerated at their homes; Pupils from out of the State, will be enumer- 
 ated in the towns where the Schools are located. 
 
 Farm Laborers for they GRT, or season, should be enumerated with the family where 
 they are living. 
 
 Agricultural Statistics. Under the head of Turnips it should read, " i?'renc7t and Rounds" 
 Intending to include all kinds of Turnips. 
 
 The cash value of farms should be given according to the best judgment of the enumer- 
 ator after obtaining all the information he can. 
 
 Thetotalvalue of all farm products means what it says, and includes all farm and garden 
 products though the value of some of Ihera is given previouslj''. 
 
 A farm, may be considered any ainount of landnoi! less than three arre^, which Is devoted 
 entirely to agricultural purposes. If a piece of bmd of one acre or more is exclusively 
 devoted to raising vegetables for sale, or lor a nursery, or for raising plants and flowers 
 for sale, it should be put down in the agricultural blanks as a farm, and the statistics of 
 it be given. 
 
 Shore Farms. When a farm borders on the sea shore, give the acres, value, &c., of the 
 whole farm in the agricultural blanks, and then give the shore statistics and statistics of 
 fisheries separately, on theblanks prepared for them. 
 
 There are many men employed as fishermen, oystermen, &c., who have no farms. 
 The statistics of their business should be given on the blanks lor fisheries, and all enu- 
 merators near the sea shore should be careful to get these statistics. 
 
 Further information will be promptly given on application in person, or by letter, at

 STATISTICS OP GEXEEAL MANUFACTDKBS. 
 
 INSTKUCTIONS. 
 To the Agents : 
 
 The collection of the statistics of the Mnnufaeturcs of Cotton, Wool, Worsted,, Jewelry, 
 and some of those of Iron, has been entrusted to special agents. It will be your duty 
 to obtain the stiitistics of all other manufactures in your district. An alphabetical list 
 Is given hereafter of various manufactures in the btate, as obtained by pre^ ions cen- 
 suses, the statisiies of which you are expected to obtain. 
 
 yAf^/Jrsi ama sprciaZ/i/ iw^ortamMustruction we would give you is, that all the informa- 
 tion you obtain relating to the raanufaotures, is to ha^e'pi strictly semt. You will neither 
 show nor communicate any facts that you may obtain to any pei-son whomsoever. You 
 can give this assurance, by order of the Census Board, to all persons in the strongest 
 terms. You can also assure all persons, that In the publication of the statistics, no use 
 will be made of the name of any person, firm, or corporation, and that the statistics 
 will be combined so tliat they will show no facts relating to the business of any corpo- 
 ration, Arm, or private individual. 
 
 In seeking the manufacturing establishments, it will not answer to depend upon 
 general knowledge; but thorough enquiry must be made in every street, lane and load 
 in your district. In some cases, important manufactures are carried on in a single 
 room, with power hired from some engine in the vicinity. Enquiry should be made 
 from the owners of engines, in regard to the power furnished, so that no shop or room 
 may Be omitted. 
 
 It is believed that the blanks will be easily understood, and will need no special in- 
 struction or explanation. The space given on the blanks is much more than will be 
 needed for very many of the less important manufactures; but it is thouglit to be better 
 to have them of uniform size and arrangement. 
 
 It is desirable to obtain more full and accurate infonnation in relation to some im-- 
 poitant industries of the State that have been given in previous censuses. For exam- 
 ple, we wi.-ih to obtain full information relating to the stone quarries of the State, show- 
 ing all the kinds and qualities of stone quarried, the cost of production, and transpor- 
 tation and other particulars; and also the estimated extent and value of the quarries. 
 Similar full information is also desired in relation to coal, iron, and other mines. Such 
 informatiun is important for the interests of the State, and also of the persons inter- 
 ested in these productions. 
 
 It is expected that each agent will feel a special personal interest in obtaining a full 
 and accurate statement of all the manufactures of every description, in his district. 
 The work must be prosecuted with diligence and completed as soon as possible. Each 
 person will keep an exact account of the lime cmploj ed, and report as soon as the 
 work is finished. 
 
 If further explanations, special instructions, or additional blanks are needed, apply 
 at once, in person or by letter, to the undersigned, at the Census OtHce, No. 37 South, 
 Main Street, Providence.

 CENSUS OF BHODE ISLAND, 1875. 
 
 Providexce, July. 1875. 
 To 
 
 Gentlemen:— In taking the census of manufactures in this State, the present year, 
 we are desirous of obtaining more full and more accurate statistics than have heen 
 obtained in any previous census. With this view, in accordance "witb the provisions of 
 the Census Act, special agents have been appointed to obtain the statistics of several of 
 the most important manufactures in .the State; and agents have been selected who have 
 special and practical knowledge upon the subject. In this waj-, we confidently expect 
 to obtain information which will be interesting and valuable not only to the public, but 
 also to manufacturers themselves. 
 
 .6®^ All statistics obtained in relation to the business of any corporation or inflivid- 
 ual, will be considered strictly confidential, and will, in no case, be shown or commu- 
 nicated to any other person, nor will any facts be published except in the aggregate for 
 the State, and so arranged that nothing will be made public in relation to the business 
 of any individual or corporation. 
 
 Mr. Isaac Peck, of Coventry, has been appointed to obtain the statistics of the Cotton 
 Manufactures of the State, and will call upon you within a few days to obtain the infor- 
 mation desired. Mr. Peck is well known in the State, and is highly recommended by 
 prominent manufactui'ers for this special business. We ask for him your cooperation 
 and assistance in making the returns the most co'mplete and perfect possible. 
 
 We send with this a copy of the blank used, that you may examine it, and so far as 
 possible have the information ready when the agent calls. 
 
 In behalf of the Census Board, 
 
 EDWIN M. SNOW, 
 
 Superintendent of the Census. 
 
 ;e®" Similar circulars wei-e sent out in connection with the blanks for "Woolen and 
 Worsted," ■' Iron," and " Jewelry " manufactures.
