Présentation de l'éditeur
The developments of statistics are causing history to be rewritten. Till recently, the historian studied nations in the aggregate, and gave us only the story of princes, dynasties, sieges, and battles. Of the people themselves the great social body, with life, growth, forces, elements, and laws of its own he told us nothing. Now, statistical inquiry leads him into hovels, homes, workshops, mines, fields, prisons, hospitals, and all other places where human nature displays its weakness and its strength. In these explorations he discovers the seeds of national growth and decay, and thtis becomes the prophet of his generation. The chief instrument of American statistics is the census, which should accomplish a twofold object. It should serve the country, by making a full and accurate exhibit of the eletnents of national life and strength; and it should ser-oe the science of statistics by so exhibiting general results that they may be compared with similar data obtained by other nations. The census is indispensable to modem statesmanship. fAMES A. GARFIELD.
