How THE WORLD IS GovERNED.-There are

How THE WORLD IS GovERsED. There are
about one hundred separately organized Gov
ernments ir the world at the present time.
Nearly one9half. are monarchies in Europe.
and of:these' q large proportion are petty
Principalities and Dukedoms, containing alto
eether about six millions Of inhabitants.
: Of the Governments Of Europe, Great Brl-
tain is limited monarchy; France is nomln-
aIly constitutional, bnt in reality an absolute
monarchy; RusSia and Austria are absolute.
Prussia, Spain and Sardinia arc limited, with
the chambers of Deputies There are only
four Republics in, Europe-Switzerand, San
Marino, Montenegro and Ancona. The three
latter contain an aggregate population OF not
over 100000 people. Switzer ardSsecurc : In
her mountain fastness, is now by common con-
sent, left unmolcsted Tie Governments OF
Asia are all absolute despotisms. Ihlbet has
the name Of being hierarchy, but differs 10
no practical sense from despotism. In Atrl-
ca, the Barbary States, and all the various ne
gro tribes, of whatever name are ruled de'Potl.
calv, except Liberia, which is republican, and
may be the opening wedge of civilization on
that continent. ,
The great islands in the Southern and Pa
c:fc Oceans are mostly independent and des,
potic, such as Japan, with population OF
twenty millions, and Madagascar, containing
about Eve millions. The Sandwich aud Society
Islands are limited monarchies, and other
islands in the Southern and Pacific Oceans
belong mostly to tue different European Pow
ers and are ruled according to their respective
forms of government On the American con-
tiuert, there are two Monarchial Governments;
that of Brazil, which is, however, Literally
constitutional. and that of Mexico. In the
three geographical divisions Of America, there
are new eighteen sepcrate Republics. The
British Possessions in North America exceed
the United States in territorial extent, and they
enjoy large amount Of political freedom.
