BIRTHS A:TD DEATHS IN LONDON.—The effect of
the greet and prolonged madams of the asestephere is now
wen very perceptibly in the MUM of mortality. During
as last five weeks the MMUS daily tempenduni has been
aimed invariably below the avenge, an the first three days
of March so much as 10 deg below it • sad dace the middle
of February the weekly deaths Is London, which had pre.
vionsly declined to 1,193, have lacreased continuously,
though at first slowly. until the number returned in the
week that ended last Saturday wee 1,487. Is the tenth
week of each of the ten yeses 1848-67. which earrespande
with lest week, the deaths ranged from 875 to 4436, mad lb.
a was 1,187; but as the deaths of last week emend
Is an inaeuol population, they can only be compered with
the average when the latter is Mewl in proportion to the in-
am" action which will make it .
_The result I.
that 182 persons died last week more than would have died if
the rate of mortality had not been higher than the average
rate at this wade. It deserves to be noticed that the deaths
increased from 1,353 in the previous week to 1,487 leetweek,
and that this increase is derived from the mortality contri-
buted by each clam of Mamas except "local diesesee," whka
iaclude bronchial complaints. In the lad two weeks the
deaths referred to dilemma of the respiratory orgies de-
creased from 399 to 366. But hooplarcengh, srblolt Mends

same complaint. "Diphtheria" is recorded se fated in 13
more, either as a primary or secondary disease. Bronchitis

rected average of the former is 143, that of the latter 98. A

corded in the soak were widows aged respectively 92 and
