Tabular Statement

　　The following tabular statement will not be void of interest to the reader, nor entirely out of place in a work of this character. Though but a small proportion of the population of the globe bears the christian name, yet about one half are under christian governments, and, in some measure subjected to wholesome laws. The following table will show the correctness of this remark:

　　 Population under Christian governments

　　 387, 788, 000 Population under Mohammedan governments

　　 72, 000, 000 Population under Heathen governments

　　 -277, 212, 000

　　 Total 737, 000, 000

　　 Those under Christian governments are thus divided:

　　 Protestant States

　　 193, 624, 000 Roman Catholic States

　　 134, 164, 000 Russian, or Greek Church

　　 60, 000, 000 Total 387, 788, 000

　　 Almost one hundred and fifty millions belong to the British Empire.
