The area of the United States, including
all its territorial possessions, is estimated by
geographers at 1886, 900 square miles, q
100000 of which at least have a surface
which is inhabitable, and will require, in ac-
cordance with the above estimate, 100000
miles of railroad to furnish it adequatcI
with the means of transportation and travel.
The above table shows that very nearly one
ninth part of this amount has already been
constructed-a signal proof of the broad en-
terprise and indomitable energy of the Amer
lean people, and wonderful illustration of
the growth and expansion of our country in
the grand elements of material progress.
Neither ancient nor modern times have seen
the like.-CoUrier.

merchandise from this port for the last
year has fallen under that of 1855. This
Is mainly attributable, however, to the ex-

STATISTICAL. Sc.

TEE WHALE FIsHERY-The New Bed
ford Whalemen's Shipping List has its an
nual statement for 1856, from which it ap-
pears that .r.
"Tbe success Of the feet has been, con-
trary to the anticipations of many, very
favorable The number was ISL, and all
bnt three have been heard from: 76 have
arrived in--T3 at the Sandwich Islands,
and 3 at San Francisco with an average
of 769 barrels oil to each ship. Only two
ships have been lost so far as heard from
the Mount Vernon, and Alexander Coffin
Of New Bedford.
The importations of oils exceed those of
the previous year, in sperm, 1922 bbls.,
and whale, 1855 bbls. The excess, how
ever, is in the amount shipped home rather
than in the catch; the high prices, partic-
ularly of sperm, having induced many to
pursne this course 1t will be seen that
tbe import of whalebone falls short of the
previous year ia 200 pounds.
The accounts from the sperm whale
fishery, on the whole, may be regarded as
fair aud nothing more.
The excess Of tonnage over that of last
year, is 5,068 tons, and from what we can
Judge Of the present state Of affairs, the
business will not warrant any material in-
crease the coming year.
