" Gentlemen -"Having now completed my inspection of
the borough, I beg to submit to you my report on its
general condition. The sanitary state of Weymouth in I
think, almost unprecedented. The mortality per 1,000 of
its inhabitants having been at the low rate of 143 during
UN past twelvemonths. whilst forth. month ending June
10th ult., was at the mtronsedy low rate of ti per 1.000 per
annum. •The births on the other hand ken been as usual
much in sum of the death-rate, via, at the rate of 119 of
the population. The scavenging of the town is dmidedly
better dens than during last you*, although there still
remains room for improvement, especially in the trout of
Johnstone-row to the end of Obusince-bniklings. Many
conapielats have been made of the nuisances gamed by the
escape of sewer gas front the ventilating shafts, and I
would beg to suggest that the Minim of our shafts be
increased, as by mg mesas the ventilation of the sewer
would be more eaarda and the annoyance from theta
much diminished. would mil attention to the cab-stead,
extending aa it does, from north to south, along the line
of the Toplanads. behind the bathing machines, the stench
from which stilts present hot season of the year is moat
objectionable, but for which, I baileys, a remedy might
easily be found. lam happy to inform your Board that
the nuisances existing in the town are not tumorous.
Of these the Inspector of Nuisances has • list, and
will doubtless adopt measures for their abatement.

of very frequent gushing, of the open drains during the
hot weather, which I wonder very desirable and moss-
