Progressive Population Of London

The population from the reign of Queen Anne to the last Census, will appear thus:

The last quoted enumeration, however, includes the population of Greenwich; so that, in round numbers, the area of the Metropolis may be taken at 60, 000 acres; and its population as 2, 000, 000.

It is also calculated that if the population of 69 of the principal cities and towns of England were added together, the total would not equal the population of London. It would require above 60 cities as large as Exeter, or 534 towns the size of Huntingdon. to make another metropolis; and it is computed that a population equal to that of Salisbury is added to London every three months!
