son tlan either New York or Philadelphia
her eight daily journals printing 223 DOC
copies every day, which, distributed among
her 362,535 people, allow somewhat more
than one copy TO every two OF her inhabl'
tants. Chicago does not so well, for her
503,053 occupants contriva TO get on with
the 2l9,l00 daily impressions furnished by
her fourteen daily presses. Milan, however,
SURPRISES all, her eleven daily offices issuing
253, 900 copies of thar journals, or nearly
enc for each inhabitant every day.
In respect Of daily newspaper issues, Great
Britain has no occasion to boast over Amer
lea; for the nineteen daily journals Of Lon.
don give her A, 100000 people only 100000
impressions day, or a little more than one
paper to four inhabitants. Tho nine dailes
of Livsrpool population 525,0O0) hsve a
combined daily circulation Of only 255 600.
Manchester population $4,000 issues daily
from six presses only 247 900 newspapers.
Edinburgh population 2OO0OO) has four
daily journals with an aggregate edition not
lsrgsr than 100 900; while her luSty heighbor
Glasgow, population 650,000), with six daily
presses, calls for no more than 200, 900 copies
per day. Even Dublin does, propertlonately n
trihs better that her Scottish neghber, and
considerably better than London; for hor six
presses daily give her 100000 people 81, 600
daily papers, or one copy to three inhabi-
tants. Thus it DOES not appear, that, in re-
gard to the general demand for daily new,.
papers, the British public is more exscting
than the American. Indeed, we find upon
examination that the cities of London,
Liverpool, Manchester, Eanburg, Glasgow
and Dublin, with an aggregate population Of
six millions, with Hfty daily newspapers, de-
mand 1884 900 copies dav; being at the
rate Of 1903 papers per annum for
each individual, estimating 9ll pub
fishing days 10 make year. On
the other hand, the cities Of Now York,
frooklyn, Jersey City, Newark, Philadal-
phia, Boston and Chicago, with an aggregate
population of 100000, having eighty-four
daily newspapers, issue an aggregate edition
of 1903, 900 copies; being at the rate Of 40
copies per annum for each person in those
plaoes-or tbirty-sevsn copies per anuum,
lover three per montb) more than are Issued
named.
II is in.the patronage of newspapers, msg.
aznes and other periodical literature Issued
less frequently than every day that the
readers Of Great Britain more than
make good the deficiency already
noted. Pursuing with much energy and
care his Investigations into the character and
extent Of the circulations of the press, both
at home and abroad, Mr. Hubbard has made
discoveries which must, IN great measure, dis
pei the illusion that Americans are tho mos in.
satiste devourcrs of periodical literature in tne
world. We undoubtedly do, as n people,
make way with vast amount OF current
reading matter in the coursO of year (esti-
mated, with the aid of Canadian resderr, at
about 2,3OO,0OO000 pieces), but it appears
upon comparison that British readers, rs q
whsle, keep fully abreast Of us in the years
race.
