MEASURES OF DIFFERENT CouNTRIEs.-The Newbury-
port Herald, in the of article Weights and
Measures, remarks that two nations have the same
though the to designate them may be used in
many countries. Take the mile for instance
In England and the United States mile means 100
yards; in the Netherlands it is 1908 yards while in
Germany it is 1920 yards nearly six English miles;
in France 2 OPS yards The Scotch mile is 1874 yards
and the Irish 303S yards The Spanish mile is 2,4T2
yards and the Swedish mile 1l,700 yards These are
computed in English yards but the yard ITSELF Of three
feet in length has divers Specifications in different places
The English yard SO inches; the French 1913 inches
the Geneva yard 81 co. the Austrian the Spanish
yard 33 90 the Prussan 36 81 the Russian 80 81 For
measures of capacity the dssmary is yet wider and
pcrplexng The British have two sorts Of bushels,
the Imperial and the Winchester of different capacity
The Winchester bushe is the United States standard
but the State Of New York has another Of different capa
city, and other States have varying standards Of their
own. These are incommensurabe with the measures Of
any other naturalization Chronicle.
