--- THE NATIONAL REGISTER. AUG. 16. Loan Mairoa and Common Council to the London Vac cine Institution, at the close of the last month, I trust the same spirit of activity will be awakened in other quarters, to open the eyes of the people to the health and welfare of their own families. The result of the labours of this Institution is certainly consolotary and encouraging. By their last Report, it appears that, in the last year, there have been Vaccinated — By Dr. Walker, 2,503 ; from the beginning, 10,898. By the appointed Inoculatura in the Metropolis, 1,075 ; from the beginning, 4,184. By the appointed Inoculators in the Country, 36,733 ; from the be giuhlUh!, :!14,'107. Making a total of 2.19,289 persons, who have received the Vaccination with uniform success. The resident Inoculater, has, also, since the last sear, supplied 25,923 Charges of Vaccine Matter, to 5,%56 Ap plicants, not only in the Metropolis and diffeleirt parts of. she United Kingdom, but to the Colonies, the Army and Navy, and to applications from Foreign Countries. The total supply of Matter afforded by the Institution, amounts to 119,003 Charges, to 24,158 Applicants. since 1806, the year of its commencement. I remain, Sir, your's, In addition to the arguments of our Correspondent in fa vour of Vaccination, we have to add the following extract from a late French paper in our possession, which shows what implicit confidence is placed in the efficiency of that salutary practice on the Continent, where to neglect vacci• ?ating children early is deemed criminal. It is to he wished the same measures should be adopted here as at Magdeburg, to prevent the extension of the contagion, when children have, either naturally, or through the inhuman perverseness of practitioners, caught the Small-pox :•••• MAODEatmo. JUNS *0 —The public have just been informed by au advertisement published in this department, that the child of a labourer, called Henkel. having rang' t the Small-pus, died After a few days illness. The ravages of that plague have even extended farther. Two other children belonging to the same Henkel have also been seized with this contagious distemper. It therefore be came the duty of administraticn to take most rigorous measures in order to prevent the guilty neglect of an individual from proving fatal to 1,800 children nut yet vaccinated. The Prefect has ordered, in conse quence, that the two sick children should be taken to St. Augustine Hospital, there to be kept in solitary quarantine under the care of the Hospital Physician. They shall have all the attend n paid them which humanity claims ; but they shell not be restored to their parents until their cure is completed, phould, however. the cruel im providence of their father and mother not have doomed them to cer tain death. Tile Prefect has learnt, with satisfaction, that within these few days more than 300 cbiWren hare been vaccinated..(Jeursel de feels, ikay 8, mt.) FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
