POPULATION RSTURNS. 263

It is difficult to say how near any of the foregoing
returns, except those for Madras, approximate towards
correctness; the estimated population of 422,990
square miles here given is 89,577,206, leaving 91,200
square miles of British territory, of the population of
which no accounts can he traced ; but if we allow the
low rate of ninety mouths to the square mile, it will
make the population of the British territories about
one hundred million ! Now to this vast number, we
are to add the inhabitants of the protected and allied
states ; the area of which is greater than that of the
British territory by 100,000 square miles; and allow-
ing an equal amount of population to the British ter-
ritories, it will give a grand total of two hundred
MILLION INHABITANTS, dircctly and indirectly under
the sway of Great Britain, and subject to the govern-
ment of the Honourable East India Company ! The
number of whites, or Europeans, does not, including
all the military, amount to 100,000.
