TABLE II.

Table exhibiting the State of Education in the Fifteen Departments of France in which it had made the greatest progress in 1843.

education in France in 1843, to the whole population, was about one in ten,
whilst in 1833, it was one in 17.

The number of the Roman Catholic population of France being 33,050,178,
it follows, (see Table I.,) that in 1843, there was one primary school for every
581 Roman Catholics.

The number of the Protestant population of France being 1,000,000, it fol-
lows, that in 1843, there was one primary school for every 1,018 Protestants.
The reason why the proportion of schools for the Protestants to their numbers
is so small is, that very many of this sect attend the mixed schools.

The number of the Jews being 80,000, it follows, that there was one school for
every 695 Jews.
