Here is what my source looks like:

1870 U.S. census, Perry County, Mississippi, population schedule, on Black 
Creek, p. 54 [penned], dwelling 338, family 510, James Simmons household; 
digital images, Ancestry (www.ancestry.com : accessed 23 Oct 2009); citing 
National Archives and Records Administration microfilm M593, roll 745.



In a report it prints like this:
