_London_.--The majority of the higher classes are above the medium,

being the prevailing admeasurement.

_Coventry_.--Almost exclusively peopled by weavers, the same facts are
peculiarly observed.

_Hertfordshire, Essex, Suffolk_, and _Norfolk_, contain a larger

general; and 6-3/8, the usual size for a boy of six years of age, is
