INDEX:

To avoid repetition in the following table, the reader is in-
formed that under the head of each country, will be found its
commerce, revenue, population, religion, geography, productions,
army, navy, history, and all remarkable features. In a few coun-
tries, such as Cuba and Panama, two sets of statistics have been
published, and as each appears to be official or reliable, both are
submitted in this volume, for the better information of the reader.
