HEALTH OP LONDON.

The Rezistrar-General's report states that the
deaths registered in London last week were 1,121. The
average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with
last week in the ten years 1832-61, after correction for in-
crease of population, is found to be 1,156. The mortality
shown in the present return is, therefore, not high, rela-

from diphtheria to 20. The former disease was returned in
four cases in each of the following anb.districts
Emit, Bethnal-green, and Plurnstead. There were 52 deaths
from measles, and five of these were returned in the Hack-
ney-road sub-district. All the deaths from measles except
two occurred to children under four yearn of age. Sixteen
children died of croup, and 24 of whooping-cough. The
