PopuLaATION OF CutNA—Minister Young, of Peking, writes to 
the State Department, under date of May 22, 1883, respecting 
the population of China, as follows: “I have been informed indi- 
rectly, but from official sources, that the census of China, as taken 
last a Sid for the purpose of taxation, shows a total population of 
255,000,000. This does not include the Mongolian or other out- 
lying dependencies of the empire, but only the eighteen provinces 
of China proper. Nor does it embrace the aboriginal tribes 
which exist in very considerable numbers in the Island of For- 
mosa and the provinces of Kuangsi, Yunnan, Knei Chow and 
Szchuan, Making due allowance for understatements due to the 
purpose for which the census was taken, and for the aboriginal 
tribes mentioned above, and for the Mongolian dependencies, 
which are really an integral part of the empire, it is probable that 
the sum total of the population of China really exceeds 300,000,- 
000. (Consular Reports, Aug., 1883.)
