Hence it appears that the population of Poland is stationary. The Turkish provinces are, Cherson, the Tauride, the country of the Cossacks of the Black Sea, and the remainder of Catherin- Dslaw, to which may be added Caucasia. The population of these provinces is as follows:— Governments. Males Cherson The Tauride Cossacks of the Black Sea, Caucasia. Femals. 124,321 88,864 9,155 2;#,240 251,580 ?V 555,309 As the Cossacks of the Black Sea have veiy few women, and still retain many of the customs of tlieir ancestors, the famous Sapa- rocjues, the preceding statement is probably correct.

Besides, if we consider the imperfection of a first enumeration, it is but reasonable to suppose that General Opperman's estimate is too small. 'llius it appeals that the population of the countries acquired since 1773 was in 1804 as follows :— 5.
