paper, daily, weekly, and semi-weekly, Califor-
nan and European, is 95,24O, and that the ex-
cess of receipts over expenses for the month of
November reaches the comfortable sum of S3,.

This IS "A Great Country!"--The final re.
port OF the seventh census of the United States
is now passing through the press. 1t will
consist of single quarto volume of twelve
hundred pages, and will be ready for distribu-
ton to the opening of this session of Congress.

not the least interesting of which are those in
reference to the extent of territory of the Uni>
ted States the total area of which, including
the territories, is set down at 1881 1923 square
miles. "The territorial extent of the republic
is nearly ten times as large as that of Great
Britain and France combined three times as
large as France, Great Britain, Austria, Prus-

mark together; one and half times as large as
the Russian empire in Europe; one sixth less
only than the area covered by the fifty nine or
sixty empires, states and republics of Europe;
ofequal extent with the Roman empire, or that

area of North America is 8,373,647 square
miles.

honor to the east nave of the Crystal Palace
and one lady whose dress we were regarding
being composed of a red jacket to the knees,
and copious bloomer trowsers-rushed up to
the bar and asked us if we would not treat her
to some gin. There is something in the voice
of femcnine innocence that seems borne from
the most dulcet corner of Heaven. But, Oh,
when woman can neither laugh nor blush,
how hell seems to have wiIted up the chords
of her tones, and turned them into the rasping
echoes of usexed despair! Sweet sixteen
drugging herself with libel on gin, and invok-
ing at the awful hour of midnight, the wrath of
God on her soul if it was good! good-to burn
and blast the tissues of the glory of woman-
hood-the proudly set throat-the rounded
bosom, life of maternal love--the loye-distIing
lips--the celestial painted eye!"
