division stretching out to Acton, Ealing, and Hanwell ; and the W.C. division, lying between the City and Charing Cross.
This Postal District, therefore covers an area as large as that of the Metropolitan Board of Works, but is not nearly so extensive as that controlled by the police.
The immense size of this area is denoted by some of the figures mentioned in the annual report of the board. The money spent during a year is two and a half millions. Besides the nine parliamentary boroughs, each ...sending two members to the house of commons, no THE " METROPOLITAN AREA."" 295 fewer than sixty distinct "villages have in course of time become constituent parts of London." The area is occupied by several thousand streets, "which, if laid end to end, would form a line 1,600 miles long." There are more than half a million different buildings and eleven hundred churches. Within the police district the popula- tion is fully four millions. " There are in London more Scotchmen than in Edinburgh, more Irish than in Dublin, more Jews than in Palestine, and more Roman Catholics than in Rome." Compared with the Metropolitan Area, even New York and Paris, the two cities of the world which come nearest to it, are so far behind that both put together would only equal it The six cities of Great Britain which come nearest to it are Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester with Salford, Birmingham, Leeds, and Sheffield ; but the population of all put together does not equal that of the Metropolitan Area, even if the city of London be taken out The rateable value is reckoned to amount to upwards of twenty-five million sterling.
