ANDORRA.

The republic of Andorra, which is under the joint suzerainty of the head of the French state and of the Spanish Bishop of Urgel, consists chiefly of a valley, surrounded by high mountain peaks. Its maximum length is 17 miles, and its width 18 miles ; it has an area of 191 square miles and a population of 5,231, scattered in some 80 villages. The surface of tie country is rough and irregular, with an altitude varying between o\f>f>2 and 10,171 feet. It is governed by a council of twenty-four members elected for four years by the heads of families in each of the six parishes. The council nominates a First Syndic to preside over its deliberations : in the First Syndic is vested the executive power. A Second Syndic is also nominated as deputy of the First Syndic. The judicial power is exercised in civil mat- ters in the first instance by 2 civil judges appointed by the, Bishop and by France respectively ; and there is also a Supreme Court of Andorra at Perpignan. This, or the Ecclesiastical Conrl of the Bishop, forms the highest appeal COurt. For criminal Milts two magistrates (fa I'inuin- dr France and le Viguicr Episcopal) preside over a criminal court at Andorra-la- Vieille. The republic pays an annual due of 960 francs to France and 460 pesetas: to the Bishop. A permanent delegate, the Prefect of the Pyrenees Orientales, moreover, has charge of the interests of France in the republic. A bm4 road runs from the Spanish frontier to Andorra. Catalan is spoken in Andorra. French and Spanish currency are both iu use.
