[110] The works which followed one another on this subject are due to Reinhold Wagner (1699), B. S. Albin (1737), Barrière (1742), Mitchell (1744), Baeck (1748), Meckel (1753-1757), Le Cat (1756-1765), etc. See G. Pouchet, _Des Colorations de l’Epiderme_, 4to, Paris, 1864. [111] The analysis of the anatomical differences in the skeleton has been, perhaps, best made by Bérard, in France, and Lawrence in England; I may refer for the details to these two authors.

Maury, in the _Athénéum Français_, 1853, No. 47. [117] [We cannot entirely agree with the author regarding the low stature of the Spaniards. From our own observation we may unreservedly say that, at all events, the inhabitants of the _south_ and _south western_ parts of Spain are a fine race, not at all liable to the charge of being different in height from the Anglo-Saxons.--EDITOR.] [118] [Although our author rather despises the idea of the legs being bowed by riding, it is tolerably well known in this country that too much riding on horseback, _when young_, and especially on large animals, is very apt to alter the shape of delicate and weakly limbs.--EDITOR.] [119] “Tribus Mongoles,” translated by S.
