HEALTH OF LONDON.

(From the RegistraT-General's Report.)

The deaths in London in the week that ended
last Saturday were 1,268. The number returned
have varied little during the last five weeks,
1,262 having been the lowest in that period,
and 1,297 the highest. The average number
for the 27th week of ten years 1854-63 is, with a
correction for increase ct population, 1,172. The
actual result of last week is therefore in excess of
the estimated number by nearly 100 death?,
Diarrl eel continues to increase slowly, and it was
returned last week in 81 cases. Seventy-nine deaths
from measles were registered. This disease exhibits
a mortality double the average, but its weekly num-
ber is not higher now than it was after it obtained
a sudden increase in the middle of May. It is not a
favourable sign of the sanitary condition of the
eastern division of the metropolis that it returned
more deaths from measles than any other division,
also more from whooping-cough, typhus, and diar-
rhcea. There were seven from measles in Mile-end
Old-town. Of six deaths in the Old-street sub-dis-
trict of St. Luke four were from measles, one from
diptheria, and one from fever. Of eight deaths in
Haggerstone East six were from zymotic diseases.
A man died from " thrombi of the femoral veins
(seven days), oe-lema of the lungs (eight days)."
In the Cambridge road, Bethnal-green, on the 2d
inst. a greengrocer, aged 61 years, died of " cholera
Asiatica (five days), following consecutive fever."
Last week the births of 967 boys and 900 girls, in
all 1,876 children, were registered in London. In
the ten corresponding weeks
of the years 1854-63
the average number, corrected, Was 1,782.
At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer in the week was 29 88in.
On Sunday the reading was
20,17 in, and rose to
30.02 in on Wednesday. The mean temperature of
the air in the week was 56.5 deg,, which is 5.1 deg.
below the average of the same week in 43 years (as
determined by Mr Glaisher). The mean daily tempe-
rature was below the average throughout the week.
The highest day temperature was 74.1 deg. on Tues-
day. The lowest night temperature was 45.8 deg, on
Friday. The range of temperature in the week was
therefore 28.3 deg. The mean daily range was 20.8
deg. The difference between the mean dew-point
and air was 9 deg. The mean degree of hu-
midity of the air was 72, complete saturation being
represented by 100. The wind was in
the south-
west on the first two dap, then in the north-west,
and afterwards in the north-east. The amount of
rain was 0.13 in., which fell on Sunday, accompa-
nied with thunder.

The deaths in Vienna, as returned by
were 338 and 315 in the weeks coding the 25th of
June and the 2d of July, when the wean tempera-
turesDr Glatter,
were 66.2 deg. and 67.9 deg. respectively,
those at Greenwich having been 65.5 deg. and 57.4
deg.
In the thirteen weeks that ended the 2d of July
the mortality in London was high ; the deaths were
17,346, In the three corresponding quarters of
1860-62 they ranged from about
15,000 to nearly
16,000; in the same quarter of last year they were
17,417. The mean
temperature of the air was 53.5
deg., which is the same as it was
in the correspond-
ing period of 1862, but higher than in any other
spring of 1860.3.
There were 2,793 deaths from diseases of the re-
spiratory organs, a higher number than occurred in
any spring quarter of the four
previous years. The
mortality from zymotic diseases was also high ; it
included 4,325 deaths, of which 116 were from
smallpox, 844 from
measles, 593 from scarlatina,
143 from diptheria, 198 from croup, 639 from
whooping-cough, 783 from typhus, 321 from diar.
rhsea. Measles was the most fatal epidemic disease
of the season, end nest to it trphus. Measles pre.
vailed chiefly is the east district ;
it carried off 58
children in the district of Shoreclitch, 55 in B atlinal-
green, 37 in Whitechepel, 61 in St. George's•in.the
East, 22 in Stepney,
43 in Mile-end Old-town, and
13 in Poplar. This dis.easo was also very fatal in
Gray's-inn-lane sub district, in Islington, Hackney,
and St. Andrew Eastern, Holborn.
Of 616 violent deaths 510 were by accident or
negligence, 30 by homicide, 75 by suicide, and one
by public execution.

Of 2,919 deaths
in public institutions, 1,556
were in workhouses, 34 in pri2ons, 75 in military
and naval asylums, 1,181 hospitals, and 74 in lu-
natic asylums.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—At an inquest held on Mon-
day in Abbey-road, St. John's-wood, a verdict of Acci-
dental hearth was returned in the caso of a man named
Charles Taunton, a publican, who died from the effects of
injuries sustained by being thrown out of a cart on Friday
evening in the move-named road.
