GENERAL GARIBALDL

The pUblic enthusiasm about General Gatibaldi has in no
degree abated. At all the places he was expected to visit
yesterday crowds had assembled, and wherever he appeared
he was greeted with tumultuous cheers. The fatigue and
excitement of Monday do not teem to have affected him in-
jutionslY, and during the clay his time was fully occupied in
receiving and paying visits.
Throughout the whole morning the courtyard at the
back of Stafford House was thronged with visitors waiting
anxiously, either in the hope of catching a glimpse of the
General at some of the windows, or at least of seeing him
in the event of his leaving the mansion to pay visits. The
great patience of the crowd did not go unrewarded, for at
midday, when the yard was densely packed, it became
generally known that Garibaldi would leave the house at
half-past 12 on a visit to the villa of the Dowager Duchess
of Sutherland at Chiswick. Precisely, at that time one of
the Duke's carriages drove into the yard, and in a few
moments the General stepped into the carriage, followed by
the Duke of Sutherland and another gentleman. The cheer-
ing when Garibaldi appeared was immense, and was con-
tinued till the party had driven from the yard. Before
going to Chiswick he paid a visit to Lord Palmerston, and
remained with him about a quarter of an hour.
At Chiswick the weather was delightful, and the beauti-
ful pleasure-grounds were seen to the greatest advantage.
The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, the Duke and
Duchess of Argyll and family, Lord Granville, Lady
Caroline Lascelles and family, the Duchess (Dowager)
of Norfolk, Lord and Lady Blantyre and daugh-
ters had assembled at an early hour. Shortly
before 2 o'clock the Earl and Countess Russell, the
Earl and Countess of Clarendon, and other personages in-
vited to luncheon began to congregate. At 20 minutes
after 2 o'clock Garibaldi arrived in an open barouche, ac-
companied by the Duke of Sutherland and General Eber.
On alighting at the villa the band of the 2d Life Guards
played the Garibaldi Hymn. The Duke of Sutherland,
after assisting the General to alight, introduced him 'to the
Duke of Argyll, and he was then conducted to the vestibule
where the Dowager Duchess and the Duchess of Suther-
land, the Duchess of Argyll, Lady Blantyre, and Lady
Constance Grosvenor had met to welcome him. In the
centre saloon all the company had congregated, and gave
the General a hearty greeting. At a quarter to 3 o'clock
the Duchess Dowager and her guests descended to the
summer dining room to luncheon. The General sat at the
head of a table in the principal room, supported on the
right by the Duchess Dowager, and on the left by the
Duchess of Argyll. At the same table, covers being laid
for twenty, were the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, the
Duke of Argyll, Earl Granvile, Viscountess Palmerston,
the Earl and Countess of Shaftesbury, the Earl and
Countess Russell, the Earl and Countess of Clarendon, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer and Mrs. Gladstone, and Lady
Constance Grosvenor. There were also present—Lord and
Lady Blantyre and the Hon. Misses Stuart, the youthful
Marquis of Lorn and Lord George Campbell and sisters, the
Duchess (Dowager) of Norfolk and the Hon. Masters
Foley, the Hein Frederick Leveson Gower, M.P., and Hon.
Miss Pitt, the Earl of Sefton, Hon. Lucy Lyttelton, Lord
and Lady Taunton and Hon. Misses Labouchere (3), Lady
Caroline Lascelles and Misses Lascelles, and Mr. Las-
celles, Mr. Seeley, Mr. and Mrs. Loch, Mr. Hewett, Mr.
Watts, Colonel Marshal, Sir E. Landseer, Sir David Dun-
dee, Hon. Mrs. Norton, Sir Joseph Paxton, M.P., Hon.
Leopold Agar Ellis, Hon. Henry Howard, Lord Albert and
Lord Ronald Leveson Gower, Mr. Paniazi, Lord Frederick
and Lord Richard Cavendish, Dr. Quin, Mr. and Mrs.
Cowper, Dr. Watson, Baron Marochetti, Viscount Jocelyn,
&c. Shortly after the luncheon was over, the General, his
hostess, and her guests walked through the pleasure-
grounds, At the solicitation of the Dowager Duchess
General Garibaldi planted a cedar (cedrus deodara) on the
lawn, in front of the house, to commemorate his visit. At
a quarter altar 5 o'clock General Garibaldi took leave of the
Dowager Duchess, cordially thanking her for the hospi-
tality he had received. After taking leave of the Duchess
of Argyll and Lady Constance Grosvenor, the General took
his seat beside the Duchess of Sutherland in an open
barouche, the Duke of Sutherland and General Eber occu-
pying the other seats. Tho military band played the Gari-
baldi Hymn at the carriage left the gates.
The crowd waited about the y ird of Stafford House till
the return of Garibaldi in the afternoon, when again he was
cheered heartily. During the day many visitors called at
Stafford House, among whom were the Duke of Wellington,
Lord Farnham, Sir J. D. Hay, Admiral Sir Augustus
Clifford, Earl St. Maur, the Earl of Harrowby, Ear
Somers, Sir H. Bruce, the Lord Mayor, &c. On his
return from Chiswick General Garibaldi, accompanied
by his sons, visited Mr. Stansfeld, M.P., at his house in
Thurloe-square. By some channel the fact of his visit to this
part of the town became known, and there was a large con-
course of persons outside the house who warmly greeted
him. In the latter part of the evening the Duke and
Duchess of Sutherland invited a select party to meet
the General at dinner, the guests including the Duchess
Dowager of Sutherland, the Duke and Duchess of Argyll,
Earl Granville, the Earl and Lady Constance Grosvenor,
the Earl and Countess of Shaftesbury, Mr. Frederick Leve •
son, Gower, &c.
This evening a grand banquet will be given at Stafford
House, to which the most distinguished members of both
houses, irrespective of party, will be invited to meet the
General. Later in the evening the Duchess gives a reeep-
den, which is likely to be, both in the number and rank of
of its guests, one of the most brilliant of the season.
A general meeting of the City Reception Committee was
held yesterday afternoon at the London Tavern to arrange
the visit of General Garibaldi to the Crystal Palace on Sa-
turday and Monday next, and to receive a deputation from
the Italian committee. Mr. Edmond Beaks occupied the
chair; Messrs. Negretti, Serena, Rossi, See., attended as
the deputation. The chairman, in opening the business,
congratulated the meeting on the glorious event of the pre-
ceding day. Mr. Negretti then detailed the arrangements
which had been entered into between the Italian Committee
and the directors of the Crystal Palace for the Garibaldian
fetes on Saturday and Monday next. Saturday would be
the Italians' fete, on which occasion the Italian address
would be presented to the General, accompanied by the pre-
sentation of swords to him and his eldest son, Menottl, fol-
lowed by a concert by the artists of the Italian Opera.
Monday would be a day especially devoted to the working
classes, at Garibaldi's own request, at which addresses
from corporate and other bodies would be received. Al-
though the Italian Committee had taken the initiative in
engaging the Crystal Palace, they desired the co-operation
of the City and Working Men's Committees, and would be
happy to receive any suggestions from those committees to

(From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return.)
in the week that ended last Saturday the deaths in Lon-
don were 1,501. In the 14th -week of ten years 1854-63 the
average number was 1,257, which corrected for increase of
population becomes 1,383 The present return therefore
shows ah excess of 118' deaths.
There were 197 deaths from brouchitie, and 104 from
pneumonia; the corrected averages being respectively 152
and 102. The oldest person registered in the week was a
widow, 96 years of age. The wife of a file-cutter, aged 42,
died on the 2d inst., at 12, Plumtree-court, llolborn, from
" effusion on the brain, accelerated by want of nourishment;"
and a razor-strop maker, aged 50, died on the 4th inst., at
13, Devonshire-street, Mile• end, from " bronchitis, accele-
rated by want of necessaries." A gardener died at Plum-
stead of " tertian ague; engorgement of the lungs (two
weeks) ; apncea." A child of "erythema neclosum ; pneu-
monia."
Last week the births of 1,018 boys and 995 girls, in all
2,013 children, were registered in London. In the ten cor-
responding weeks of the years 1854-63 the average number
(corrected) was 1,966.
In the first 13 weeks of the year the deaths in London
were very numerous; they were 22,733. In the same quarter
of each of the four previous years 1863-63 they may be stated,
as an approximation, to have been 19,000. Hence it appears
that nearly 4,000 lives were shortened, which would have
been prolonged, some perhaps for months, others probably
for years, if circumstances had not been more adverse than

those which attend an ordinary winter.
The weekly deaths rose to their highest point in the second
week, when they were 2,427 ; they fell to their lowest point
in the 12th week, when they were 1,397. Twice they rose
above 2,000; ten times above 1,600. In the first week the
mean temperature of the air was as low as 261 deg. The
mean temperature of the quarter was 38.2 deg.
That inclement weather was the source from which sprung
so great a mortality is proved by the Table of Diseases,
Cold weather gives increased returns under many heads,
but bronchitis is, more than any other disease, the mea-
sure of its intensity. The deaths from bronchitis scarcely
exceeded 2,200 in the warm winters of 1862-63 ; they rose
to 4,023 in the winter now past. Those from pneumonia
rose from about 1,000 to 1,425. Phthisis increased from
about 2,000 to 2,486; heart disease from nearly 800 to 1,027 ;
whooping-cough from about 800 to 913,
17 deaths were ascribed to privation in the quarter. The
average is 12.
The districts on the south side of the river returned more
than their due proportion of deaths from zymotic diseases.
Of 413 deaths from measles, 147 occurred in the south dia..
tricts ; of 749 from scarletina 245, and of 172 from diarrhcea
70 occurred in the same districts, Though diarrhcea does
not prevail In winter, there were not few cases of it in
Lambeth and Battersea.
