Excerpt from A Hand-Book for Travellers on the Continent: Being a Guide Through Holland, Belgium, Prussia, and Northern Germany, and Along the Rhine, From Holland to Switzerland Instead of designating a town by the vague words large or small, the amount of the population, according to the latest census, is almost inva riably stated, as presenting a more exact scale of the importance and size of the place. In order to avoid repetition, the Routes through the larger states of Eu rope are preceded by a chapter of preliminary information; and to facilitate reference to it, each division or paragraph is separately numbered. Every Route has a number, corresponding with the figures attached to the Route on the Map, which thus serves as an index to the Book; at the same time that it presents a tolerably exact view of the great high roads of Eu rope, and of the course of public conveyances.
