MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION. Population of the World. — A thousand millions have been mentioned, apparently for no other reason than the convenience of a round number. Matte Brun reduces the amount to 650 millions. We thm\i his enumeration for Asia, Africa, and America still rather high, and submit the following estimate as the result of our enquiries : — Europe, 185 millions, Asia, with Australia and Polynesia, S70 millions, Africa, 55 millions, and America, 40 mil- lions,— total, 550 millions. Hassel, in IS 19, estimate^ the population of Europe to be 180,703,000 ; but fialbi, in 1823, raised it to 226,283,000. De Schlieben put it at 188,391,174, of whom 172,432,000 were Christians, and the armed force of all its countries at 2,500,000. Dr. Mal- thus stated the population of China, from his authoriti(3s. at 330 millions. The Chinese ^ave this account to Lorq Macartney. Malte Brun, in hi3 view of the subject, re- duces it to 150 millions. Abbe Orocler reckopied it at 58 ■v'.^'--. -.1-! .-.- ""^t^v/jiii -■■-,■.■,;■- 157,301,755. The Pere Amiot at 900 millioos. Tim- kowski, one of a late Russian mission, from some account he saw in 1790, at 143,396,734. An official work publish- ed in China in 1833, entitled Tsin-shin, makes the a- ihount 146,380,163, which is adopted by Sadler in his J^ws of Population. But an Anglo-Chinese Kalendar, PR)1ished recently in China (1832), states that, accord- ing to a census taken in 1813, under the authority of the Emperor Keaking, the official returns carried the popu- lation of China to 363,447, 18S souls. M. Gutzlaff, the German Protestant Missionary, has adopted this as the most certain account of the real population of this surpri- singly extensive empire.

England and Wales con- tain 57,960 square miles, Scotland 30,600, and Ireland 30,000 ; in all 118,460 square miles. The United States contain about 2 millions sauare miles, or nearly one-twen- ty-fif^h part of all the lana on the globe. 59 Our Glube cootains about 146 mitlious ofuquhre miles Ci water, and 50 millions of land. In Americfk, one about 16 milliona of square acres of land, in Asia 16> in Africa 11, in Europe 3, in Australia 3^ millions. The number of languages spoken upon the globe is about 3000. The number of births, by estimation, fs^ to the numbflr of inhabitants, as 1 to 'iOA, and the number of deaths as 1 to 33. " . In Europe the number of male children born is to that of females as 21 to 30, or 26 to 25. At the age of fifleea years, the number of males and females is nearly equal* Over that age the number of females is greatest. In a country where there are 10,000 births, the whole population is computed at 295,000 ; children under fifteen years of age, 93,030 ; over fifteen, 202,000 ; married cou-* pies, 23,000 ; widows, 5000 ; widowers, 4000, It is also computed that nearly a quarter of the children born, die the first year, and nearly a third within the two first years. The number of births upon the earth in a year is about 84 millions ; in a day, 65^000 ; in an hour, 2,7 OS -, in a iTMUUte, 49* In a population of one million, 502,000 will live to be twenty years of age ; 334,000 to forty-five years ; 213,000 to 60 ; 177,000 to seventy ; 34,000 to eighty ; 2,800 to nine- ty ; 207 to one hundred ; 16 to 105 ; 2 to one hundred and eight ; 1 to one hundred and nine ; and none to one hun- dred and ten years.

The Planets. — It is a universal fact, that while none of the planets are perfect spheres, so none of their orbits are perfect circles. Each planet revolves around the Sun in tin ellipse, which is more or less eccentric, having the Sun, not in the centre of the ellipse, but in one of its fo' ei. The eccentricity of an orbit is the distance from the centre to either of the foci, and is equal to half the differ- ence between the two diameters. In every revolution of a planet, therefore, it is once in its aphelion, and once tn its perihelion. In the former case, it is as much farther from the Sun than it is in the latter, as the longer diame- ter of the orbit exceeds the less, which excess is always equal to twice the eccentricity. The Sun. — The Sun is by fur the largest of the hea* lehly bodies, whose dimensions we have been able to es- timate. Its diameter is something more than 884 thousand miles ; and, consequently, it contains a mass of matter equal to fourteen hundred thousand globes of the ^ze of the earth. Of a body, so vast in its dimensions, the hu- man mind, with all its efforts, can form no adequate coa- ception. The whole distance between the Earth and the Moon would not be sufficient to embrace one-third of its diameter. . Were the Sun a hollow sphere, with nume- rous openings to admit the light from above, and were it sun, moon, planets and stars to be represented on the concave surface, and a globe as large as the- earth to be At the c^tre, 'thf^re would be present to the view of a spoctat^ir pi^.thje £arth*i3 surfkc9, a universe at ipleodid as that; whfhsh up"^ ibpean^ to the unloatructed eye— a uai versa CIS ldri« ^odext^ftilve a^tbt whole craatlo^ W^'jI seemed to be in the infancy of astronomy. The next thing which fills the mind with wonder, is the distance nt Whieh 80 great a body nsust bo placed, to occi|pv, appa- rently BO small a space in the firninmeut. The Sun's mean distance from the Earth, is eleven thousand nine hundred and ninety-two times the Earth's diamete%or nearly ninety-five millions of miles. We may derive some faint conception of such a distance, by considering that the swiftest steam-boats that ply our waters, at the tate of 200 miles a day, would not traverse it in thirteen hundred yeaps; &nd, that a cannon-h&W, flying night and day, at the rate of 16 mile a minute, would not reach it in eleven years. [From numerous experiments, made at the Imperial Polytechnic and Military Schools under Bonaparte, the mean velocity of a musket ball is 1600 feet in a second; that of a cannon-ball 1400 feet in a second^ Which is about twice the velocity erroneously given in school books.] The Earth.— The Earth, like all the other planets, moves in its elliptical orbit with a velocity which is vary- ing every instant^ being most rapid in its perihelion, (when the Sun, as we say, is in perigee,) and slowest in its aphelion, (when the Sun, as we say, is in apogee.) — It ism its perihelion, or Sun in perigee, about the Istof January, and in its aphelion, or Sun in apogee, about the 1st of July. Thus we are above 3 millions of miles nearer the Sun in mid-winter than in mid-summer. The reason why we have not, as might be expected, the hot- test weather when the Edrth is nearest tne Sun, is, that *fhe Sun, at that time, having retreated to the southern tropic, (the Earth being in the ascendin? part of heroi'- bit,) shines so obliquely on our northern hemisphere, that its rays have scarcely half the force of the Summer sun ; and continuing but a short time above our horizon, more cold is accumulated by night than is dissipated by day. The constant variation of the Earth's orbit motion, is occasioned by two forces, one tending to the centre of the SuQs.atad the other in the direction or a tangent to its or- ^b|t, arising from the primitive impulse given at the time when it was launched into space. The former is called iia. eentri^etal^ the latter, \tBcenirifi/»alft>tce, Should the centrifugal force ceai^p, the Earth would fajp to the Sun % its gravity alpn^ in 64 days, IS hpurs> SBip. 55s.; ; and, Were the ^uh not,to atoint oTitsorbif whicfa is da v'«V-!JUfc''.-^9-*>-' farthest from tho Sun, his attraction ovarcomes its veloci- ty, and brings it towards him with so accelerated a mo- tion, that it at last overcomes the Sun's attraction, and Rhoots past him: then, gradually asain decreasing in ve- locity, It arrives at the aphelion where the Sun's attrac- tion again prevails. This is the universal law of plane- tary motion. However large or small, however near or remote, the planets may be, their motion is always such that imaginary lines joining their centres to the Sun, pass over equal areas in equal times: and this is true not only with respect to tho areas described ever^r hour by the same planet, out the agreement holds, with rigid exactness, be- tween the areas described in the same time by all the pla- nets and comets, belonging to the solar system. — The form of the Earth's orbit is such, that its longer axis or diameter is about the one-sixtieth part longer than its shorter axis or diameter; consequently, the foci of the orbit arc above 1| million of miles from its centre. [In aphelion, the Earth is distant from the Sun 96,477,3S0.2 miles; in perihelion, 93,'^86,551.4 miles; the mean dis- tance being 94,881,890.8 ; and theeccentricity of its orbit, 1,595,339.4:— taking the Earth's mean diameter at 7912 miles, and the Sun's horizontal parallax at 8.6".] Now as the Sun remains fixed in the lower focus of the Earth's orbit, it is easy to perceive that a line, passing centrally through the Sun at right angles with the transverse or lunger axis of the orbit, will divide it into two unequal se- gments: precisely thus it is divided by the equinoctial. — That portion of the Earth's orbit which lies above the Sun, or north of the equinoctial, contains about 184^ ; while the portion which lies below the Sun, or iouth of the equinoctial contains only 176°. This fact shows why the Sun continues about 8 days longer on the north side of the equator in summer than it does on the south side in winter. Important Discovery. — The Baltimore Athcne?om says that some very remarkable lectures were lately delivered by Mr. Biot, at the College de France—He has proved, that, by polarized rays it is possible to ascertain the che- mical action which takes place between bodies held in solution in various liquids: an action which has not yet been discovered by less delicate means. The discovery, it is thought, will lead to the most important results. Equalizmg the Blood in the Human System.-^We see ihat a patent has been taken out at Washington for an ■'A. '^'■fX'.'^^T. g#8«r» Apparatus to effect the above importnnt pnrpoAe. The limb aficcted, or the whole body, is to be enclosed in a tube or vessel rendered air tight by India rubber, and tbo air is to be then extracted by moans of an air pump, so as to take off atmospheric firessure from the part enclo- sed, and thereby cause an influx of blood. Heat is at the same time to be applied, to propitiate the circulation. Bleeding to death. — Whore an artery of considerable size is cut, it ia in general neeessary te tie it up, and in most cases if u surgeon be nut at hand, the person dies in a short time. The following simple plan for check- ing the hiBmorrhage, until surgical assistnncc can be had, may prove useful. Pass a strong cord, string or handker- chief around a limb, aud above the point of injury ; tie it tight, so thut it will not slij), and insert a stick of any kind between it and the limb ; by twisting the stick around (which is thus formed into a kind of lever) the cord or handkerchief may be made so tense around the limb, as to stop the circulation of the blood, whicl^ may be thus retained for several hours, without injury to the individual. We know diseases of stoppings and suffocations, says Bacon, are the most dangerous in the bo^ly^ and it is not much otherwise in the mind: you may take s.irza to open the liver, steel to open the spleen, flower of sulphur for the lungs, ca.sto reum for the brain; but no receipt open- eth the heart but a true friend, to whom you may impart griefs, joyij, fears, hopes, suspicions, counsels, and what- soever lieth upon the heart too]>pre£'s it, in a kind of civil shrifl or confession. — Where peace is, there God is, or dwells. Important to F'armers. — Beet Sttgar. — As the man- ufucture of Sugar from Beets, may ere long be undertakea by some of our Agriculturists, the following article from an American paper, may be of interest : — It appears that a Mr. Lecerf, of Ournaing, in the arron- dissement of Valenciennes, has for sometime made sugar of most excellent quality, and that the apartments used as his factory are only two in number, one of which is 17 feet, the other 7 feet square. The machinery in the first apai'tment, consists of a wooden i asp turned by a crank, a hand-press of the same material, three small iron kettles^ cootainmg 35 to 30 gallons each, and three filterers of the same capacity. In the second apartment aie two copper kettles, an evaporator and ehristuiizer, holdinjp 30 gallons 64 cncb, and moulds ranged around for tke recoption of tho f u^ar. Tho price ofthe wbolo apparatus does not exceed $l2b. Tho quantity of su^ar iauear planting so thick,' I believe that I can secure a larger product than from any other that I have ever tried. But the circumstance which gives it its chief excellence, in my estimation, arises from the fact that I can gather my corn in season for tho sowing of wheat or rye. In the most unfavorable seasons, wheat or rye may be sown in September, and in very favorable seasons early in that month." 67 At a late meeting of the Londoa Horticultural Society, Mr. Knight, the President, described the culture of a new variety of potatoo, whereby 1000 bushels (each bushel 00 lbs.) may be obtained as the average produce of an acre. He also stated that he had found a minute quantity of the flower of sulphur very efficacious in destroying the red spider on peach and nectarine trees, and on melon vines. Planting Forest Trees. — The best time for planting acorns and walnuts, as well as peaches, cherries and other stone fruits, is in the fall of the year, as soon as they are ripe. If they are -kept long after becoming thoroughly ripe, they are apt to lose their vegetative principle. Remedy for Vermin in Sheep. — Mr. Coke's recipe for dressing all his flocks previous to winter, was as follows: two pounds of tobacco, two pounds and a half of soft soap, one pound of white mercury in powder, boil in eight gal- lons of water one hour; part the wool once down each shoulder and the breast, and twice along each side ; into which pour it; this quantity is enough for forty sheep. — Young^s Annals. Dairy Secret. — Have ready two pans in boiling water; and on the new milk's coming to tne dairy, take the hot pans out of the water, put the milk in one of them, and cover it with the other. This will occasion great aug- mentation in the thickiicss and quality of the cream. Remedies against Rats and Mice. — Take a spoonful of flour, mixed with some scrapings of old cheese, and seeds of hemlock, (cicuta,) made as fine as possible. Set it where the mice haunt. If it be set in a house, let it not be in the same apartment with any thing which is food for man. This mixture, according to Deane's New England Farmer, will destroy all the mice which have access to it; and the same poison will destroy rats. Hints to House-keepers.'^ho'iViig codfish in hard water makes fish firmer. Soap should be cut up in pieces that it maybe kept hard. A little wet whiting will get ink out of boards. A little white wax will clear-starcn nice- ly. Milk will take ink out of prints. To boil Peas or Beans — That dry peas or beans may readily boil soft in hard water, throw a small quantit;)^ of sub-carbonate of soda, (common soda of the shops,) in^o the veanl io which the dry seeds are put to boil.

Sweeten it to taste, stir it till it thickens, and serve it up in cupa or in a dish. It may be used either hot or cold. To make hard Water soft. — Take the hard water flrom the well, and into one bucket put one ounce of the carbo* uato of soda, which dissolves immediately when the wa-> ter is warmed, and it becomes at once us sod and harm* less as the purest rain water. lieeipefor the Croup. — Sponges or napkins dipped in the hottest water, wrun^ out, and applied to Me throat, are said to be excellent in the croup. Recipe — Linseed, sugar, liquorice, and lemon juice, ad- ded to a little rutii, arc said to be an excellent recipe for a cough. » Cure for a JBttrn.— Scrape the inside of a potatoe; mix oil and turpentine so ns to make a poultice of the mixture"; apply it to the burn immediately, and it will extract the heat. China Ware — In Chiua, it is said that the prepared clay for the manufacture of porcelain ware is buried in deep pits, and left to rinen there for half a century; by whicn means their porcelain attains that semi-pelucid and pear* ly delicacy which has never been equalled in this country or iti England. Transparent Cement for uniting broken glats. — It is said that Isinglass, boiled in sjurits of wine, makes afino transparent cement, which will unite broken glass, ren- dering the iVactu re almost imperceptible and very strong. Earhj Frugality. — In early childhood you lay (lie foun- dation of poverty or riches, in the habits you give your children. Teach them to save every thing;— nQ§fortheNr oion use, for that, would make them selfish— but for some use. Teach them to share every thing with their play- mates ; but never allow them to destroy any thing. I once visited a family where the most exact economy was observed, yet nothing was mean or uncomfortable. It is the character of true economy to be as con)fortable with little as others are with much. In this family, when the father brought a package, the older children would of their own accord put away th^ paper a^Ptwine neatly, instead of throwing them in the fire» or tearing them to pieces. If the littb ones wanted a pieee of twine to spin a topy there it wa^ in readiness; and wheh they threw it upon the floor, the older cbl|i|)^n i^od no need to be told to put if again in \t§ plaee. ■ ■ 69 i^i^^M^^ie^'Wsj^'i^ i I II ITiLus OF Ti3CE4'~'Lord Brpugham, the most indefati- ?[ab)e man «n Epgland, often does not quit his study be* ore midniffht, and he is always up at four. Dr. Cotton M^atber, wno knew the value of time in evenr thin^, was never willing to lose a moment of it. To ef^ct this pur- {)Ose he had written upon the door of his study, in lnr<;e etters, " Be Brief." Ursines, a Professor in the Univer- sity of Hiedelbur^, wishing to prevent the idlers and bab- blers from interrupting him in his hours of study, had written aUfhe entrance ilito his library, *• Friend, whoever you majnre, who enters here, be quick with your busiuess, or go away." The learned Scaliser placed the following phrase at the door of his cabinet, " My time is my estate," The favorite maxim of Shakspeare was, <* Consider time too precious to be spent in ^ossipping." *' Friends are the real robbers of time," said Byron. An old attorney of Cbatelet, was accustomed to get rid of such of his clients as were importunate, or he had little to hope from, by these words — " My good friends, time lost, goes for nothinj^." , " Sire, one tworrf," said a soldier one day to Frederick the Great, when presenting to him a request of Brevet Lieutenant, " If you say fiwo," answered the Prince, " I will have you hanged.'* " Sign,'* replied the soldier. The monarch, surprised at his presence of mind, immediately granted his request.
