GERMAN LITERATURE. The number OF
weekly, monthly, and quarterly journals and
magazines in every department OF science
literature, and art exclusive of dailies), pub
lished in the German language in Germany
Switzerland. and the German part of Austria,
according to the published statistics Of the last
half of 1867 and the first half of 1865 amount to
S83. If we calculate an average edition OF
6OO0 copies for each periodical. etc.. we have an
annual circulation of 295 900 copies OF periodl~
cal literature, or about one copy for every eighth
German-speaking inhabitant. The number of
books, pamphlets. etc., In every department of
science art, and literature-not the number of
copies printed of each work. but the number OF
so many separate and distinct tworKs-published
curing the year 1867. amount to $3.50; and in
1868 the number Will reach about 1900. II we
calculate an average edition of 1000 copies for
each work. we have an average circulation in
lS67eS of from 6S, 1856 900 TO $4,000 900 copies,
about two copies for every German-speaking
inhabitant 1t must be remembered. however
that about one-fourth of these publications are
exported TO France. England. Holland, ana
the United States so that the average number
of works for each inhabitant will be somewhat
reduced.

DRUNKENNESS has been reduced to statistics
by 81. Louis physician, who makes the fol-
lowing statements in reference to the subject
after great deal OF laborious research:-
'S,Taking the population of this country
at 100000. of 300 men l22 never
drink spirits at all; 100 drink moderately
but not to intoxication; so are ephemerai
drinkers 25 drink periodically, called 'spree-
ing" and are habitusl inebriates. I'd
every l78 who drink. are confirmed ine-
briates; 20 are periodical drinkers SO are
ephemeraI drinkers. OAe confirmed ine0riate
TO every 5915 men. OF 100 women, go never
taste alcoholics of any kind; 30 taste wine occa-
sionally; II taste ardent spirits; S6 drink ale or
beer constantly; Ia drink ardent spirits periodi'
cally, and are habtual inebriates. Predomi'
nance in confirmed inebriates among the sexes:
3 men in every l78; women In every 100; con
firmed inebriate TO every 80 l3 OF women
Fewer women drink than men, but q larger
proportion of them become habitual drinkers
Debauch drinkers rarely become habitual, but
periodical drinkers; the latter rarely become
habitusl drinkers, as the violence of their
drinking is too great, and leads to disgusting
safety, and hence to intervals of sobrlety."

AN EDUCATIONAL ITRM.-We have before US
the annual catalogues of three of the most
prominent educational institutions in the
country. That of the University of Michigan,
which still ranks the first in the United States
in point of numbers, shows lll4 students in
attendance during the current year, OF whom
422 are attached to the department of arts,
35S to that of medicine and surgery, and 342
to that Of law. The list of professors and
other instructors numbers thirty-three. Al
though the new university founded by Ezra
Cornelps liberality is not yet fairly in
working order, the annual catalogue contains
the names of 3S8 students, 25l being in the
department of science, letters, and arts in
general; and l59 in that OF special arts and
sciences. The faculty is not yet complete
twelve professorships being yet vacant, but
thirty-two positions in the faculty have already
been filled, twenty-six with resident professors
and six with nonresident professors and leo
turers. Among the resident professors occurs
the name OF Goldwin Smith, the distinguished
English historian and statesman, who has sc-
oepted the professorship of English oonstitu-
tiOnal history. The College of Nav Jersey,
which has, as yet, established no professional
school in its connection, numbers go stu
dents, and seventeen professors and instruc-
tors,

liable value of our GOAL formations. He esti-
mates that the amount Of coal used every
year in England for the purpose Of propelling
machinery generates productive force equal
TO the combined labor Of 66,000,000 men;
while, If the entire product Of the English coal
fields were turned into the same channel, it
would generate q force equal to the labor Of
4O0, 900, 900 men The area of the American
coal fields being thirty-three times as great as
that OF England, our readers can easily take
away their breath by going through the pro-
cess Of multiplication, and contemplating the
result as the possible achievement OF Ameri-
can industry when our population approaches
in density the almost limitless extent of our
resources.
