Few people have a correct idea of the magnitude of Texas. Us bound aries enclose an area of 274,.156 square miles, or 176,087,840 sores. An idea of ita extent may beat l>e formed, perhaps, Jby eompairing it with other countries. For instance, it has 34,000 square miles of area more than the Austrian Empire, 62,000 mors than the German Em pire, about 70,000 more than France, is nearly as large at Sweden and Nerway together, and twice the eise of Great Itritain and Ireland. Com ing to this side of the Atlantio, the oocuparwon ia no Ism startling. The area of all the Eastern and Mid dle Stataa ineluding Maryland and Delaware, is 100,000 sqnare miles lam than Texas. U ie six times aa large as New York, seven times as large a Ohio, four times aa large aa all Nsw England. The area of Ohio, Indiana,. Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan, taken together, falls short •f that of Taxes by some 40,000 sqqprs miles, or ahntber .Htat* as large as Ohio. If you orosa the Mis sissippi, joa mutt consolidate •Kan sas, Nebraska, low* and Minnesota to equal tbe area of Texas.
