This return comprises the births and deaths registered by
2,196 registrars in all the districts of Boglead during the

of worship, ninon:noted with the established church, and
628 superintendent registrar.' cans, in the quarter that
ended on Much 31, 1866.
The marriage rate, which was law, is now slightly shove
theaverege rate ; the birth rate is high ; and the death rate
is low : so that the state of the population, in the light of
these returns, Is favourable.

Sixty-six thouend mina hundred and seventy-sir pertune

and Much. The annual rate in the quarter we. 707 mar-
riages to ovary 100,000 of the population ; while the rate in

average rata of the preceding winter quarters was 704. The
merriages (33,388) were more by 4,267 then the marriages
(29,131)1a the winter quarter of 1866; and the bureau is a
tare 941114.44110 ot the preeperlty of the country. This
Lacrosse of marriages is absented In every division. The •
erects le the number in Portsmouth, Plymouth, and Hull
is probably due to the :stun or our gallant seamen from the
Black See and the Baltic.

173,204 boys and girls were born alive and registered in
the spring gamier that ended on the last day of June ; giv-
ing an mamma of 7,954 children on the numbers of the cor-

INCREASE OP POPULATION,
As the number of births was 173,204, and the number of

June; so 1,903 lives were lidded, 1,102 were takes away,
daily ; leaving 801 as the daily increase. But in the setae

the United Kingdom at which goeernmect agents

tured near Hill., and brought back prisoners. A fourth

little doubt that he will also be taker. Tilers is some un-
cortaiaty am to the filth—the men who have be.ci taken
state that he was killed by the Euglish before the boat lett

SUBMARINE Rituns.—The schooner, South Shore,
Captain Edward Oils, arrived at this port from Caps Biet n
last night, having on board many memorable impl,met.ts of
war and other article*, buried in the deep at the c pure of
Louisburg, by the English, in 1745 At that time tire
French ennui muds were auk , 1 attempts, more or
lets successful, have bun made to recover ordoaace,
Mc , which sure then engolphed. The crew of the South
Shore have been fortunate in this particular on their lute
cruise. They obtained 18 iron cannon, some of tee
of 1 ego calibre, and one retching the weight of 9,204) lbs.
The ordoance remaining in the watt r for more then a
century is covered with rust, end has no legible 'corks to
stamp it u once belonging in Louis In Besides she cau to
a variety of shot of different sites, iron knees, pieces of
cable, rapiers, and mementos of French defeat, of
inte direstvers
shapes, were also ousted, all possessing a peculiar ,
as recalling that interesting anti-re v.ilutionary era when our
fathers acquired the disc One which enabled them atsbse•
gustily to oast off Britian thraldom. The val us of the ma.
metal raised from toe French wreck is estimated at 2,500
dole. The company. consisting of five men, have been ab-
sent only two month' and a half, unit as they charts red this
routh Shore on their own account, will nap a profits ble re•
ward for their toils. This is the second trip they have made
to the scene of the Freash disaster, as they visited the scot
last summer; bet their success in the pecuniary view was
not so decided then as it has been the present sesson.
