Figures alone can convey an idea of its immensity. Great Britain, which is only two hundred leagues long, and the soil of which is far from rivalling in richness the plains of Lombardy or Aragon, yields annually to the labors power among the nations is rendered manifest by the number and greatness of its fleets and dominions.
