Comparison of

3. Regarding the foregoing statements Dr. Bird writes as follows:—"The European
numbers, out-door and in-door, are for 1876 much the same as for 1875. The Native numbers
for those years show a remarkable difference. In 1876 the in-door average number of Native
patients largely exceeded that for 1875. This is mainly owing to a desire to meet the wants
of the station, which are largely in excess of the capacity of the institution; and it is to be
feared that, by using verandahs as wards, and so on, a certain amount of relief has been
afforded at the cost of efficiency. The average of Native out-door attendance was smaller in
1876 than in 1875. This, however, was apparent rather than real, and is attributable to the
introduction of a more correct system of registration at the request of the Deputy Surgeon
-General. In connection with the remark it is to be noted that more out patients, individually
speaking, were treated in 1876 than in 1875."
4. In the following table is shown the total number of in and out-door patients (Chris
-tian and Native) treated during the years 1875 and 1876, together with the number of deaths
and the death-rate per mille of total treated during those years:—
