The Register General's quarterly return of the health and mortality of England, for the quarter ending the 31st of December, has just been published ; and as it must be a question of considerable interest at the present season of scarcity to know the effect of the deficiency of food, and the badness of its quality, on which the greater portion of our working people have been recently fed, we subjoin a condensation of the document, in so far as it relates to our own Districts. These quarterly returns are obtained from 115 districts in the Kingdom, which are sub-divided into 576 sub-districts. Thirty-four of the districts are in the Metropolis, and the remaining 81 comprise, with some agricultural districts, the principal Towns and Cities in England. And these are made from an area of ground which, according to the census of 1841, contained 6,579,693 souls. The return commences by stating, that in the first quarter of 1846, in consequence of the mildness of the weather, the rate of mortality was lower than it had been in any of the corresponding quarters of the pre vious 8 years. To this pleasing fact, however, the districts of Sunderland•, Newcastle-on-Tyne, and Carlisle were striking exceptions. In the second quarter, (ending the 30th of June,) the mortality was a little above the average : and diseases began to be prevalent in June, which raised the mortality in the third quarter to the ex traordinary amount of 9655 above the average of that sea son. During this time, as can well be remembered, there was an epidemic of Diarrha Cholera. From that time the average number of deaths has been increasing. Although the abstract returns for the whole of England have not yet been made out, yet from the present returns it may be calculated that there were 106,000 deaths in the September quarter, which, after correction for increase of population, is 20.000 ,nd what is called English THE CHURCH PASTORAL AID SOCIETY We rejoice to hear that an adjourned Meeting of the Friends of the Pastoral Aid Society will be held on Fri day evening next, in the Concert Hall,. Lord Nelson street. The Rev. H. M'Neile in the chair. We have been asked to direct attention to the Advertisement in our columns this day, we can do no better than by stat ing that the grants made for the support of Curates mid Scripture Readers in Liverpool, amount to £l,lOO per annum, and inserting the following deeply interesting extract, from one of the occasional papers published by the Society, showing what it has been the honoured in strument of effecting in the parish of Whalley, near Blackburn The parish is about twenty miles by thirty in extent, and containing, seven years' ago, when the Auxiliary to that Society was formed in that parish, 110,000 inhabitants : 7 . _ _ "At the time of the Reformation, the population of e parish of Whalley could not exceed 6,000. There - - was then a church for every 400 inhabitants ; i. e., 15 in all. In 1801 the population had increased to 49,000. During this long interval one ruinated- church had been restored by the father of the prea tional church built in 1788. Th' churches for 100,000 inhabitant' average to every 6,000.

The in creased mortality in London gives but a faint idea of the. number of deatiis which have occurred in the other large towns in the kingdom. Thus the deaths in the London district during the December quarter of 1845 and 1846 respectively, were 11,695 and 1 - 3,033; whilst and West Derby the increase between these mortali d in the latter guar -In the December rated to 853 ind in that of 1846 in deaths have occurred numbers being 552, and 5 dent not been so great, the numbers being scot, 290 and 510.

It cannot be surprising that while such a stale of things exists the mortality should be great." The same thing has been noticed in Liverpool. The Registrar of St. Thomas says :—" A considerable portion of the increase (of deaths) arises from the great influx of the poor from Ireland, most of whom are quite desti tute when they arrive. Some hive been only a few weeks, and others a few days in the town previous to their death." The " high price of provisions," " Depression in trade," and " Distress," are referred to by the Regis trars of Stockport and Little Bolton, as causes of the high mortality in December last. The failure of the potato crop and the dearness of provisions left the poor very ill able to provide the additional clothing and tiring required by the severity of the weather, and their suffer ings must have been aggravated while their earnings were at the same time diminished. However, no mention is made of the potato disease having per se had any direct connection with the mortality. No doubt large quantities of the potato in a partially diseased state were consumed by the poor; but still it does not appear that its use even in this ate has been productive any specific di appreciable connection witli lisorders of the bowel and fever which grew preva- s came into USE The return next the mortality in different p. !es in the s Lt populai lanchest rri„. .7 Salford; and cember quarter 0f1845 were 2555, and in the same quarter of 1846 they increased to 4029 ; whilst in 1841 the population of Anglesea was 38,105; the deaths being, in 1845, no more than 163, and in 1846 they were 206 thus, after allowing for increase of population, the inha bitants of Manchester, &c., were probably 10 times as numerous as the inhabitants of Anglesea ; the mortality was 15 timed as great in 1845, and 20 times as great in The same maybe said of all the manu6ctUring districts as compared with the agricultural. It is found from the- returns of the seven years, 1838 to 1844, that the mortality of Liverpool and Manchester, and the worst part of other towns, has nearly doubled the mortality of tolerably salubrious districts ; and it is here seen that while the mortality of the latter districts was raised 50 or 70per cent., the ordinary but unnatural and frightful mor tality of the dense districts was raised from 70 to 100 per cent. in 1846 over what it was in 1845. Opinions differ as to what fraction of the suffering and death in the manufac turing districts is to be attributed to the want of water or of sewerage—crowded lodgings, narrow and ill cleansed streets, badly ventilated workshops—the destitution of skilful medical advice—the neglect of children, doses of opium and overfiowings of quackery—the nuisance of slaughter-houses and rank churchyards ; but a large amount of the misery may be fairly set down to the want of proper sanatory regulationS.

The Court of Directors of e the Bank of England met on Thursday afternoon, and adjourned, without having or dered any increase in the rate of discount, as was fully expected in some quarters. It appears that many of the directors are averse to further restrictive measures, and do not expect that the bank will decide upon further raising the rate of interest at present. One great drawback to the export of the precious metal is, the high rate of premium now charged. - The apprehension of approaching tightness in the money market, however, still continues to depress commercial activity, which is further affected by the diminution of foreign exports and of consumption at home, caused by the existing high prices of provisions. Some dissatisfac tion exists amongst the commercial classes, both here and elsewhere, in consenuence of the impression, which has been excited the wording of Lord John Russell's an nouncement of his Irish measures, that the amount re quired, or a portion of it, for the relief of distress in that )nt the ordin country, will be taken of the year, thus putting an end to tion in the tea duties, &c. , rented to Government on the subjk the funds for this purpose, a great and a mer revenue f reduc- rospect ialhas been pre- It is argued that A which are to be repaid in course of years, ought to be raised by way of a loan similarly repayable. It does, indeed, seem hard that the present generation should be called upon to furnish a large sum of money, the benefit of the repayment of which will accrue to their successors.

Of this increase 17 persons were born i t klicashire ; 27 came from other English counties; 1 came from Scotland, and 83, or fifty-six per cent. of tb whole. we nn Ireland.

Of those brought up in 1846, there were for indulgence in the.vicious habit of intemperance 6392, of whom 3226 paid the fines imposed on them—the amount of which was £844 7s. Gd. ; and 3166 did not, the amount whose fines, if paid, would have been £825.

Sixty-two went to prison for fines to the amount of ;VG. There has been a great number " brought up" for the commission of another and most dangerous offence—that of throwing missiles.

Smuggling spirits, 27 tines, £216 13s, of which only £27 were paid. Detaining seamen's register tickets, only one case ; and. conveying spirits into prison, the' same number.
