THE CENSUS OF THE AUSTRIAN EMPIRE. The Austrian-Hungarian Census returns, Dec. 31, 1880, show a more favourable set of figures for Austria than her sister Hungary. While the Hungarian population, during the eleven years following the former Census (1849), has only increased from 15,417,327 to 15,610,729, or at the rate of 0'11 per cent annually, the population of Cis-Leithania during the same interval has increased at the rate of 0.74 per cent. Bosnia and Herzegovina are not included in this calculation. The individual "Crown lands" of the the Hapsburg Monarchy yielded the following figures at the Census:-Galicia, 5,953,170; Bohemia, 5,557,134; Lower Austria, 2,329,021; Moravia, 2,151,619; Styria, 1,212,367; The Tyrol, 805,326; Austria (Proper), 760,879; The Bukovina, 569,599; Austrian Silesia, 565,772; Krain, 481,176; Dalmatia, 474,489; Istria, 295,854; Salzburg, 163,566; Trieste and its district, 144,437; Gorz and Gradiska, 210 241; Vorarlberg, 107,367. The total population of the Cis-Leithanian lands in 1880 was 22,130,864, against 20,396,639 in the year 1889. A decrease has nowhere taken place. The city of Vienna numbers (exclusive of the military) 726,106 inhabitants. The city of Prague, on the contrary, has decreased in population since 1869, 1 per cent.
