SINCE, says that the number of inhabitants who
nave lived on the earth amount to about 26, $685.
1875 ,O75,S4O. This sum, the writer saws.
when divided by 3,O96, 900, the number of square
leagues OF land on the surface Of the globe leaves
!2,s2O,57S.7S2 persons to each square league..-
There are 27 1864, 900 square miles of land which
being divided as above, it will give about five per-
sons to each square foot of terra frma on the
globe. Let the earth be supposed to be one vast
burying ground, and, according TO the above state
ment, there will be 1888 persons to be buried on
each square rod; supposing it capable of being
divided into twelve graves, it appears that each
grave contains 100 persons, and that the whole
earth has been one hundred times dug over to
bury Its inhabitants: supposing they had been
equally distributed.
