Holland and Germany. Ii in three years
the Society of Paris aids the French to vie
In a commercial point Of view with England
and Germany, if France becomes rich, pros
porous and strong, it will not have lost lis
time.
The science of statistics is very plea sant
one; with figures, it teaches many things
interest ting to know, aud in concise terms
explains the problems of complicated
philosophy. But the most Partisan of
Parisians knows very little about Paris.
Who knows that the city contains S7,426
trees, and that pavements in stone represent
g. 339, 600 meters sQnare, while those in wood
cover only a suface OF 446, 900 meters square?
The sewers of Paris are about 1925, Az feet
in length and the amount expended each
year on streets is about S3.OOOCOO.
Parisians eat about fifty million pounds
of poultry each year, 33S, coo oxen are
slaughtered for their use, 203,000 calves,
100000 sheep and 100000 hogs. Sixty
mil lion pounds of fish aud thirty-two mill
ion pounds Of fruit must also be added 10
the list.
For every 10000 inhabitants there are
SO marriages: and for every 2l,OOO mar
riages there are only 30 between cousins.
20 between brothers and siSters-in-laW and
three between uncle and niece.
In the poorer quarters of Paris the num-
Der of births is very great but In the richer
quarters the average IS very small. Stalls
tics follow the foundlings also, for of sixty
waits, twenty-one are left outside doors las
there are no doUrsteps), six in churches, six
teen on the sidewalks and two in gardens.
Each year Parisians take out 1000 patents
for various inventions, send and receive
10000 foreign kilograms and 100000 city
kilograms.
Parisians send each year 33,oOO,0O0 letters.
100000 postal cards and 100000 Dews-
papers.
In Paris thore are 1000 cabs and the
same number of omnibuses; eco objects
are lost each year in cabs, and at the rail
way stations 100000 travellers arrive
yearly.
There are about 80, GOO arrests each year,
and OF those arrested only thirty-five are as
sassins.
In the city there are $1,000 gaslights, so
that Paris is just one hundred times better
lighted than it was century ago.

the heavy -weights of the San Franeiscns
