Polk, Dallas, Bancroft. Allen, Buchanan, Marcy, Walker, Cass, Jackson, Woodbury, and their associates, with tempting them withi too many offices. The detailed expenditure for consuls, custom-houses, lights, envoys, the navy, seamen's protection, &c., will enable the reader to compare the cost of protecting foreign commerce, with the charges on inland trade. POPULATION, VALUE OF PROPERTY, STATE DEBTS, ELECTIONS, SALARIES, &c. The old thirteen' States, with Vermont, contained 371,124 square miles; the thirty now incorporated contain 1,450,000, which, with the Great West, gives 3,311,110 square miles as the area of the territory of the Republic. The value of real and personal property is nearly 8,500 millions of dollars. In 1775, the population was about 2,500,000; it is now (Nov. 30) estimated at 21,300,000.
