where fir tuo good of his country we are certain

all will go well in Paris, lint if by chance the

we shall conclude indeed tliut this matter lias

consider this as but one of many other acts, Indi

to regard party more than principle, and ambition
more than patriotism—n spirit which it is oar duty

The question before us is not what we would

National Republican leaders has been to suppose
that tliut party could recruit from the majority, or

En long as the partisans of cither of tho other

excusable in refusing lo nnito upon Judge White;

irospcct of electing any oilier candidnte against

selves lo tlioso who aro misled by party feelings
or selfish ambition. 1
Were wc tho personal triond, and political par

STAfIStICS OF FRANCE.
Although the probabilities of a War happily be
come fainter and faiater, as the returning good
sense of our own people, and those of our own
ancient ally, render both more and more disposed
to terminate aU differences amicably) we have
thought it wonld not be uninteresting to preseat a
summary condcosed view of tlie present ruodithm
of France, from the latest authorities—chiefly ax
bridged from a late valuable little work by M>
Bcnoiston de Chatcauneuf, highly spoken of for
the authenticity of its details.
Sur/aro—Greatest length 245 leagues, breadth
205, frpntier line 1000 leagues.
. Forati—Vast and numerous, 15 millions a-
cks,'greatest towards East and South—at St. Ger
main, Fontainbleau, Ardennes, Jura, Ccvetinees,
Pyrenees, Berry, Bourgogne, Alsace, Provence,
especially Lorraine, in fine limber. France and
the Crown possess about half of these forests.—
They contain 37 species of trees, which grow from
30 to 40 feet high, Tho mass is composed of 18
species, viz. 3 of oak, 5 resinous. 1 chesnut, 1
beech, 1 birch, 1 linden, 1 ash, 1 willow, 1 maple,
2 elms 1 yoke elm—of these 18, seven only serve
for ship-building and carpentry. The annual valbe
ofthe timber cutis 110 millions francs,
y Mineral Waters.—240, especially in the moan-
tains, Auvergoe, Languedoc, &c.
Mines—No gold, silver, mercury or plalina; a-
bnndancc of copper, lead, [f] iron, coal, fee: al
together 520 mines, which employ 30,000 work
men. The population, comprising Corsica, is 32,
367,600. The north is and always has been the
most populous, for after abstracting Paris, there is
still 1466 ton square league; the centre is next, the
south least. By tho census of 1831, 15JOB,500
males, 16,024,400 females, viz: children 8,864,-
200, monied men 6,046,000, widowers 742,400,
military 303,000, girls 9,068,100, married women
6,054,400, widows 1,501,900—of these there
were in 1826,166,410 above 80 years of age. A
third ofthe population Jive in towns, and the other
two-thirds in the country. Thus, 10 or It mill
ions occupy’ 4,450,000 urban habitations, and 21
millions 3,982,450 rural. There would be then
only 4 1-2 persons, to each house in towns, nnd
5 nnd two-tenths.incountry houses. Tbereisnn-
nually about 1 birtit on every 32 persons, nnd one
death im every 39—a marriage in every 131, nnd
4 and nnc-sevcntli children to each marriage.—
The number of births is less than .formerly, yet
tho population increases because fewer die—they
live better. Most nro bortf on the' Loire, fewest
in Normandy. The greatest number-die in Brit
tany, the least in Gnscogny. The overage births
are.i0 for8dcnths- Tlie ratio of increase is, 1,-
169 on this number per annum. The medium of
life before tho revolution was 28 years, now 32.
Agriculture.—Nearly hnlf France is cultivated
—a twentieth in Vines, tin eighth in meadows, q
ninth in forests, n thirteenth in marshes.' Tho
average bushels of grain to tlie acre, is about 48—
the maximum in tiro north. Tho annual agricul
tural products, aro 2,775,000,000 francs. There-

It is necessary to remark, thnt, notwithstanding
this list of formidable navies, the'number of ships
armed, or in a condition for active service, forms
to the snm total on
weden, for instance, although
ly such powerful fleet, has eel-
ilnm in actaal* service any but a few insignificant
flotillas, merely to exercise her naval officers in
nautical {tactics. Tho total number of British
ships nf all sizes in commission, for instance, in
Jnnuaiy, 1835, amounted to only 182. France
lias seldom more than forty ships in commission,
manned by 13,000 men, while Russia Has always
a largor proportion in active service.
The number of vessels building,, we have not
staled. Thus, England has 62 of different sizes,
besides 13 Steamboats on the stocks; France, 14—
and the United States has five ships of the line
and seven frigates building in her dock yards. Of
the fifty-one stated in tho above list, as belonging
to this country, a considerable number are unfit
for service. Since the close ofthe late war, near
ly four hundred ships of different gradations, have
been struck from the list of the British Navy os
-unfit for service, and condemned and sold. The
present navy ofthat country, as well as of,France,
is almost new.
