The 1890 census data is spotty at best. What didn't burn in a D.C. government office building was mostly discarded by the feds in the 1910s and 1920s. Some regional extracts from the 1890 census, such as agricultural schedules, still exist.

There are several sources of US Census data on CD-ROMs. A good place to
begin looking is any one of many genealogy sites on the web. Most of these
sites have links or stores where you can purchase various genealogical
references, including the census. Some of the sites also allow you to read
these records on the web site if you are a member.
Independent of the genealogy sites are private companies who will custom
prepare a census CD for you -- these firms can be located on-line via an
internet search. Of the census data I've seen, 1880, 1890, 1900, and 1910
are available for most states and many of the counties within the states.
Costs are variable.
