A comparison of these five epochs leads us to a knov.^leclge of the 

 fact that the gross amount of our annual revenue from our Agriculture 

 is now double that during the Empire, and that in only one generation 

 it has tripled the revenue given by the whole territory of France under 

 Louis XVIj before the benefits of the revolution, and finally that it is 

 quadruple that of the Agricultural production of the age of Louis XIV. 

 There is not in history another example of such an Agricultural })ro- 

 gress and the acquisition of such great wealth, the fruit of labour, in- 

 telligence and public liberty. 



Royal Studs in 1848. — The number of Stallions of pure blood now 

 in these studs is 322. They are divided among the several establish- 

 ments. Twelve stalUons are in the pin stud, viz. B^ranger, Bolero, 

 Eylau, Friedland, Governor, The Juggler, Oak Stick, Pole Cat, Prince 

 Caradoe, Royal Oak, Sylvio and Tipple Cider. 



Ten stallions are at St. Lo, viz. Adolphus, Comminges, Don 

 Quixotte, Great Wond*^r (Croesus) Jocko, Marengo, Paul de Kock, 

 Richard Y Snail, and Ulysses. 



Among the 322 stallions are ten newly brought from England by 

 Mr. De Laplace. The Stud Journal says, that these are rich and 

 precious, and that the English saw with regret that some of these were 

 taken away from th^m. 



These horses have cost 52,800 francs, or about 10,000 francs each. 

 Sting cost more than the rest, viz. 15000 francs. 



The number of horses imported in one year is 28000.
