MAGNITUDE OF RUSSIA.

At present the Russian empire en-
compasses AZ degrees Of latitude and
no less than 173 degrees Of longitude
that is to say, 1t doubles the extent
of the United States in length and
nearly triples it in breadth. The EN-
pire state Of New York could be easily
set down in the s.647,657 square miles

alone. is ten times the size of France
and thirty-three times the size of Eng
land and Wales. European Russia
takes up over one-half Of Europe, and
Asiatic Russia over one-third Of al
Asia. So We find Russia occupying
more than one-seventh of the total
land surface of the globe.

this gigantic whole. custom has fixed

however, is, like the equatorial line,

is barely broken up by the Urals; in

To the Asiatic side Of the Urals the
