three liver° rare exceptions. Beauty
is very much commoner among
women of - the English race than
among those of anylotheririth which.
It am acquainted ; and among that
race it ie\eommoner in " America"
than in England. I saw more beauty
of face antrfignre at the first tiro re
ceptions which I attended after my
return than I had, found among the
hundreds of thousands of women
who& I had seen in England. • •
• The types are tke same in both
countries; . but they seem to come
near to' perfection much oftener here
than there. Beauty "of - feature is,
however, sometimes more clearly de
fined in England than here. \ The
month in

ti:ul is inoreStatuesque. The _ carves, moredecided, and at the junction;
of\he red of the lips with the white
ther is, a delicately raised 'outline
which arks the form of the feature
in ave noble way. This may also
tto said f the nostril. ‘ -.lt gives a
\
chiselled e ect to those fe;utures
which is no so , often found in
" America",• bt the nose itself, the
brow, and the s e 'a nd carriage of the
head are - genefiner- among
"Americans." In th countries,
however, the head is tto bow. too
ly ilp
large for perfect proportion.. This is
a characte ristic , defect of 'the English
type of beauty. Its effect is seen in
Stothard's figures, in Etty's,\and in
those of other English painte 'An
other defect is, in the heaviness o he
artictdations. 'Really fine`arms a
rare;
but floe wrists are still rarer. .
Such. wrists as the Viennoise women
have--of *llia I saw, a wonderful
example in the Viennoise wife of a
Sussex' genileman—are almost,. un
'known among women of the 'English
race in either country.' .It is-often
said, even in England, that " Arneri-
Jean " ' women. have more beautiful
feet than Englishwomen have.... This
I am inclined to doubt.: The !feet
xiay be smaller here ;
and they goner
