therapeutic, of the 13 patients in it was considered satisfactory.

XVI. Principal causes of sickness. —The principal cause has been ague—172 cases having
occurred, which is a great decrease on the previous year, when the admissions were 364. The
disease was of a mild type. Naturally, local injuries are the next chief causes of sickness, and
rheumatism is the third, numbering 32 cases. A large number of the latter were probably of
syphilitic origin.

Inspection—The hospital and lines of this regiment were inspected by the
Deputy Surgeon-General of the Rawal Pindi Circle on the 5th of December
1876, Mr. Allen reports that on the date of his inspection the huts were
being re-roofed, and the general condition of the lines was satisfactory. The
latrine was on the dry-earth system, and the burnt litter from the lines was
used in it. Owing to its roof being considered unsafe, the hospital was not occu
-pied, but the sick were in a separate building close by. There was no bath-room
attached to the hospital for the use of the patients. All the arrangements
are stated to have been quite satisfactory, and the patients seemed to have every
care taken of them.

1 D y s e n t e r y .
1 Aneurism of the aorta, by rupture.
1 Simple continued fever.
XVIII. Epidemics.—None. Measles were very prevalent at one time in the city. One
case only occurred in the regiment.
XIX. Vaccination.— Forty-five men, chiefly recruits, were vaccinated during the year,
with a successful result in 30. A large number of children in the lines and belonging to
camp followers were also operated on. No case of small-pox occurred, and the regiment is
thoroughly well protected.
XX. Recommendations.—During the year I strongly urged the construction of the
detached hospital and the supply of stoves to the main building. No other suggestions of
special importance were made. Every possible assistance is given me by the officer Com-
manding.
XXI. Special observations and remarks.— During the year, 42 recruits were examined : of
these, 16 were rejected, 3 being for defective vision, 5 for poor physique, and 8 by the com-
mandant for other than medical reasons.
Inspection. —Inspected by the Deputy Surgeon-General of the Rawal
Pindi Circle on the 30th November 1876. Mr. Allen reports that the lines
were good and roomy, but the ventilation and lighting within were indifferent.
There was no regimental latrine, and, instead, the men had to resort to the
neighbouring jungle for necessary purposes. The cleanliness of the lines were
well attended to. A detached building was used as a hospital, and the ventila-
tion, cleanliness and all the arrangements in it were considered to be satisfac-
-tory. The water-supply, which was from wells, is reported on as being of
indifferent quality. The hospital equipment for the proper treatment of the
sick was complete.

MEDICAL AND SANITARY REPORT OF THE NATIVE ARMY OF BENGAL.
Inspection. Inspection.—Inspected by the Officiating Deputy Surgeon-General of the
Dacca Circle on the 18th of December 1877. The lines of this regiment are
situated on an elevated plateau, surrounded and commanded by hills except
towards the south, where they are open to the plains. The crests of the surround-
ing hills are surmounted by fortified pickets. The buildings occupied by the
sepoys are constructed of bamboo and rods, plastered with mud and thatched
with grass. The ventilation through them is considered to be defective.
The water-supply is from the hill streams, and is said to be of good quality,
although the men suppose that goître is brought on from its use. The drainage
is, as might be expected from the situation of the lines, perfect. No latrines
are in use ; the men, instead, resorting to the jungle for necessary purposes.
The hospital can accommodate 36 patients, but on an emergency an
adjoining barrack can supplement the hospital in providing additional room for
the sick. The hospital equipment was in good order, and calculated to meet
all the requirements of the regiment.
Mr. Adley inspected the men on parade and considered them to be
fairly well conditioned.

CAMP DELHI, 29TH NOVEMBER 1876.
These general remarks on the sanitation, &c., of the British and Native civil encamp-
ments at Delhi are communicated for the consideration of medical officers in charge of
Camps. All details should be completed as far as possible before the Camps arrive.
2. Cleanliness in all matters is the great point to be observed. Separate papers---Nos 46,
47 and 48-have therefore been drawn up on the plan and use of latrines, urinals and
trenches for other matters.
