L BOU& Patrcirr or Latins Towns tit RIIIIIA.

-—St. Petersburgh, Moscow, and Odessa, are the only cities whose population ex-

ceeds 100,000; indeed, there is some‘

doubt whether that of Odessa reaches this figure. There are only four towns containing more than 50,000 inhabitants each, and I8 or 20 with a population exceeding l5,000. In fact, it has been computed from the official reports, that there is only one town with an average population of 7000, in an area of I30 square miles. Now, the result of this is obvious. The absence of any market renders it unnecessary for the proprietor, who has no facilities for transporting his graintoa seaport. to grow more than sufiicient for his own consumption; and the peasant only cultivates land enough to yield the produce required to support his own family.——Russian Shores of the Black Sea.

Rnaiaiotrs Woasitii-.—There has just been published a Parliamentary volume containing a report and tables concern- ing religious worship, as exhibited by thu census of Great Britain, I85l. The vo- luitie has reference to England and Wales 35 different religious comtnunities or eects—27 native and indigenous, and 9 fogeign. Taking the population of Eng- land and Wales at 17,927,609 there was present at the most nunierously attended services on Sunday, March 30,- I85l, the number of 92,97 L258 members of the Church of England, 3,ll0,78*2 Protestant Dissenters, 249,389 Roman Catholics, and 24,793 of other bodies. According to the census tables, the religious bodies in England and IVales have 34,467 places for worship, and the number of attendances on the census Sunday was 10,896,066. It is estimated that 7,261,033 persons attended some religious service on that day.

Stminr-sciioot.s IN GREAT BRITAIN. -At the time of the census, there were more than 230,000 teachers in Sunday- schools instructing, every Sunday, in re- ligious knowledge as many as l,t-300,000 children. The total number of Sunday scholars on the books of the schools was about -2,400,000, and about two teachers to every fifteen scholars.

Ora, rnoii COTTON Si:t:n.—-An estab- lisltmeiit for the manufacture of oil from cotton seed has been started in New Or- _leuns. It is asserted that the oil is of a bland, pleasant taste, possessing all the qualities of olive oil, that it burtis with great brilliancy, and is peculiarly fitted for using upon machinery, on account of not gumming or drying. If the oil is really valuable, the manufar:ture will be an im- portant one, for the quantity of raw material is unbounded. .

A French Lady, at Athens, established in I849, a prize of five thousand francs for the Jewish damsel who, after close examination, should be declared the most proficient in the Hebrew language. It was divided between it young lady of the city of Nancy and-another of Strasburgh, 2.300 to the other. The Three Grand Rabbis of the Central Consistory of France, and several eminent Hebrew scholars, were the judges. They found the competitors thoroughly versed, and worthy in an absolute sense, of what was awarded.

Mr Martha Ball.of Pitt- street, in this town, had been for a consilerublo tlrne laboring under nervous debility, loss of a petite. and ‘general ill health, occitsinned by ulcernteifwounds in the breast. She it had much experience in the use ofall the known remedies for the cure of ulcers, but without any beneficial result; in fact she had nearly lost all faith and ho of a cure being effected. In this distressing and” painful condition of body and mind, she was persuaded to ve recourse to your invaluable Ointment and Pills. which she immediately did, and in the course of a very short time the afoot produced was most asloniahing; her up the was speedily improved. and the sores and u cars in the breast gradually healed, and the nervous excitement or system was wholly removed.
