In 1851 the population was 27,475,271. A ca jle dispatch mentions the completi n of the census of Engliiiid, Wales md Inluid for 1870, and tho population of England and Wales is officially stated to be about 22,700,000 ; that of Ireland about 5,400,000 - in all, 28,100,000. In 1701, when the first estímate of the American white population was takon, within the limits of the present United States, the nuinbor was found to be only 262,000, and now we count about 35,000,000.
