The land and naval forces, the monks and nuns, 

 and foreigners not domiciliated (transient persons), 

 are not included in the census of 1810. The figures 

 of this census have been referred to erroneously in 

 works otherwise worthy of credit, as corresponding 

 to the year 1817. The garrison of Havana is usually 

 six thousand men, and the number of foreigners 

 20,000, so that the population of Havana, with its 

 seven suburbs, doubtless at the present time (1825) 

 exceeds 130,000 souls. The following table shows 

 the increase of Havana and its suburbs between the 

 years 1791 and 1810 :
