 The greatest density of population of kingdom, is exhibited in Belgium, where it is 538 to the squar mile; single districts in Rhenish Prussia, show as high as 700 to the square mile.
 Political economy has not yet found guage by which to determine how densely people can be crowded and make living. In civilized Europe the density is steadily incrt asing. America promises a similar development in future. The fertility of her soil, and the concentration of mind upon the utilization of her resources, promise high capacity of sustaining population | Civilized emigration to Polynesia may tend to a similar development in Australia, East India and China, although how densely peopled, incline, after period of stability, toward decrease rather than an increase owing to the peculiarlties of their civiliza tion.
 The chapter on distribution of races, is preiaced by an interesting sketch of Retzius' new saystem of cranioogy with its two di- visions of oval heads (dolieo oephalous and broad or cubic heads (Jradry cepholous;) ) the former including, in Europe, all the Latin and German tribes, 151 millions; the latter the Slavonic, Magyar, Turkish, and some of the Romance tribes of the south, 115 millions; in Asia, the Chinese, Hin doos, Arian Persians, Arabs Jews and Tungusians are oval heads, 610 millions; all the rest broad heads 145 millions.
 The estimate of America is, of course, based on aborignes only. In regard to them, the opinion is advanced that, from the islands around Behring's Strait, along the west coast, including the Russian colo nies, Oregon, Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Bo- livia, Chili, Argentina, Patagonia and Fire Island, the population consists principally of broad heads; while the east coast, from Canada downward, including the United States, the Caribbean Islands, the West Indies, Venezuela Guiana and Brazil, the oval heads predominate. This would coin eide with Humboldt's theory, that the west coast of America was peopled from Asia The aborigines would now probably not ex ceed one million. All the rest are emi
 grants and their descendants, including per haps half a million of broad heads; one-hal of the aborigines being oval heads, one mil lion is therefore the extent of the, broat heads of America, to fifty-eight millions c ? oval heads. In Australia, the broad an, oval heads are probably evenly divided being one million each. The footings ar
 therefore as follows:

 (Not on the " Shorter'' plan;
 That's too "old fogy" for the wise,)- Q.-What's' the chief end of man2 Alt is to think, or cen pretend
 The negro is a saint,
 And blame the MAKER of all flesh
 For putting on the paint Q.-Was man created good at first?
 And did he fall from grace? A.-None were at first created good
 Except the long -heeled race. Dwell, what is sin? my gentle friend; You're posted and can tell? A.-Sin is th' "agreement made with Death, Ana c0Venent With He'll"
 And all who love the UNION dear, The CONSTITUTION brave,
 Are sinners of the foulest sort Whom salt can never save. | Q.-What do the Holy Scriptures teach? And what's effectual calling? | A.-Ihey teach us nigger hood to preach.- It's nigger! to keep bawling. | Q.-Sanctifcation,- what is that?
 What, when and how begins? A.-1t's niggerism, sir, throughout, And hides host of sins. l Q.-What is the sum of the commands,
 By which we must abide? A.-To hate thy brother at the South,
 And '' let the Union slides Q.-And what is faith? my smiling friend? A.-Well, you don't pose me yet Faith is the evidence have
 Enables me to bet
 It is firm and fixed belief
 That negroes will prevail,
 And something good turn up for me,
 And be it head or tail Q.-What instrument do angels play!
 What song sing they above?
 (Old fOgies used golden harp,
 Their song Reckoning Love.) A.-Me glad you ax dat question, sar;- A banjo of one string, , And nigger! nigger is the tune Externally they sing.

From the New York Century The Population of the World.

A recent paper, prepared by c. F. W. Dieterici, director of the statistical depart ment of Berlin, on the present population of the globe, presents some curious facts. We have translated and condensed some of the leading results of this exceedingly inn portant document which can hardly fail to be of interest even to the general reader.- We suppose, of course, that the author bases his figures on the last official reports, and hence, in a growing country like the United States, the figures given are probably some what below the actual number.
 The author adopts three different modes of classification:
 First by totals of the several countries;
 Second, by races, and
 Third by creed or religion.
 According to the first mode of classified tion, the mass of detail given sums up in the following round numbers:
