Statistics.
The population Of the. British Islands,
which was %, 32l ,2SS in 1881, is now
about 81 100000. 1t is astonishing how
few newspapers and other public jour
mails are published for the instruction ard
entertainment of this large number. In
the United States the mere list of news
papers fills a stout octave volume. In the
