For 1839 the number is carried to 17,500,000 or
18,000,000. The number of sheep was reckoned by vari-
ous authorities, some three or four years since, between
32,000,000 and 35,000,000, as we believe, writing from
memory.
The mean import and export of woollen yarn and piece
goods, from 1836 to 1838, for Prussia was

During the same years the aggregate manufacture o
woollen cloths was of the estimated value of 6,500,000/
The number of spinning machines, in 1837, was 4.143 ;
of spindles. 401,210; of cloth and stuff looms, 16,937 ; of
woollen mercery, idem, 4,085.
For all the associated states of the German Commercii
League, the mean import and export of raw cotton, and
cotton yarn, and piece goods, was estimated at the begin-
ning of 1839 to be as follows :
Import of raw cotton
Export 4,404,280
Yarns, import
Ditto, export
Piece goods, import ... ..... 1,486,444
Ditto, export
The mean home consumption, on deduction of the
quantity exported was, therefore, 33,370,933 lbs.
At the same epoch the particular share of Prussia was,
on the hverage—
Import raw cotton
Ditto yarns
Export cotton and yarn
Import piece goods
Export 5,500,000
Total import, 30,500,000 lbs; total export, 17,500,000.
The mean home consumption was therefore 13,000,000 lbs.
The whole production of printed piece goods, in Berlin
alone, was estimated in 1838 at 350,000 pieces, which is
about the quantity said, in the report of some of the late
touring speeches by the learned Dr. flooring, to be
turned off annually by each of several calico- printing
establishments in and about that city which he inspected,
or talked as if he had. At the end of 1837 there were,
in Prussia, of

In 1834, the number of cotton-weaving looms did not
exceed '31,739;
in x 825, not more than 22,139. The in-
crease has been greatest in Silesia. The number in
1805 was .................................... 5.884

1837
hnsiees 2,581 looms for ribands, &c. In Silesia the peo-
ple were already very apt, and well trained to progress in
the cotton manufacture, from the circumstance of its
having so long been the principal seat of the great linen
manufactures of Germany. And in that province also
capitals had been accumulated, and were more abundant
for new commercial manufacturing enterprises.

CHARLESTON.—We have received Charleston
Papers to the date of Feb. 14. The bloodhounds which, in
the pursuit of their unholy purpose to drive the stricken
Indians from the homes of their fathers, the Americans,
availing themselves of " all the means which God and
nature have put in their power," have employed, to
hunt down their oppressed neighbours, have been brought
into active training. It may be remembered that the
fact of the transshipment of those unnatural emissaries,
which was in the first instance indignantly denied, has been
subsequently confirmed by the reluctant and official admission of
Congress itself. And now we are exultingly told by the pat-
tern Republic of modern days. that after the bounds had been
subjected to a series of experiments, "they can rapidly, and
with certainty, follow a trail 24 hours old.:— Standard Teeth,
