philosophiques sur l'homme, publies par De Jakob_, Halle 1818,
although written in French, was the production of a Russian, the late
writer Poletika, brother of the former Russian ambassador of that name
in this country.]
[Footnote 48: According to official reports, more than seven millions
of volumes of Russian books were printed in the ten years from 1833 to

During the same ten years 784 new schools were established. In 1842,
there were in the Russian empire 2166 schools of all kinds; among them
_six_ universities.]
