HEALTH OF LONDON,

(From the Registrar-G;nerats Weekly Return.)
In the ten principal cities or boroughs of the
United Kingdom 4,071 births and 3,218 deaths were
registered in the week that ended on Saturday last.
In the seven cities or boroughs of England the mor-
tality was at the rate of 29 per 1,000 annually; and.
the deaths of the week were 2,618.
Fifteen hundred and eighty-five deaths were re-
gistered in London in the week that ended Jan. 21.
In the corresponding weeks of ten years, 1855-64,
the average number of deaths is, with a correction
for increase of population, 1,637. The deaths in the
present return, therefore, are less by 52 than the
estimated number.

From zymotic diseases 357 persons died. Small-
pox proved fatal to 7 children and 2 adults ; 42
deaths occurred from measles, 5 of these cases were
registered in the sub-district of Kensington-town ;
typhus carried off 81 persons 5 deaths occurred
from this disease in the sub-district of Whitecross-
street, 4 in that of St. Giles South, and 4 in that of
Hoxton New-town ; 52 deaths were caused by scar-
latina, 12 by diphtheria, and 62 by whoopingeough.
The deaths during the week from diseases of the
respiratory. organs (exclusive of phthisis) amounted
to 379,, the corrected average number for this period
of the year being 440. From bronchitis 221 deaths
occurred ; 101 persons died from pneumonia, and
22 from asthma.

Phthisis proved fatal to 156 persons. From dis-
eases of the heart 72 deaths were registered, and
from various diseases of the brain and nervous sys-
tem 175 persons died.
The winter season is more particularly fatal to
perions advanced in life. Fifty-six persons died
last week who had attained the age of 80 years and
upwards ; amongst this number are recorded the
deaths of six nonagenarians, the eldest of whom
was a widow who had attained the age of 98 years.
Thirty-six persons were accidentally killed. Nine

deaths were caused by burns or scalds, three persons
were drowned, and four were suffocated. Eleven
deaths were occasioned by fractures or contusions.
The wife of a pedlar, aged •56 years, died in the
workhouse, Clerkenwell, from a fracture of the ribs,
from being run over by a mail cart. The daughter
of a carpenter, aged 2 years, died on 11th January,
at 150, Long-lane, Bermondsey, from injuries
I caused by a cart passing over her. A spinster, aged
62 years, died at the City of London Union work-
house, Bromley, on 18th January, from exhaustion
consequent on her refusal to take food.
Last week the births of 1,053 boys and 1,069
girls, in all 2,122 children were registered in Lon-
don. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years
1855-64 the average number (corrected) was 2,015.
At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer in the week was 29.178 in.
The barometrical reading increased from '28.80 in.
at the beginning of the week to 29.51 in. on Satur-
day. The mean temperature of the air in the week
was 34.1 deg., which is 2.7 deg. below the average
of the same week in 50 years (as determined by 11r.
Glaisher). The highest day temperature was 42.6
deg. on Sunday. The lowest night temperature
was 19.7 deg. on Saturday. The entire range of
temperature in the week was therefore 22.9 deg.
The mean of the highest temperature of the waester
of the Thames was 41.1 deg. ; that of the lonlyea:

A CtINAED STEAMER ASHORE.—Tha Omani
steamer
Niagara, which left the Mersey yesterday morn-
• went ashore during a dense fog, about 11 a.m., on the
Burbo Bank. No fears, however, are entertained as to the
safety of the vessel, and it was fully expected that she
would float off on last night's tide.

tractive to the taste or acceptable to the stomach ; the nut
was either supplied in the crude state, or so unskilfully
manufactured as to obtain little notice. J. Ep vs, of London,
Hommopathio Chemist, was induced in the year 1839 to turn
his attention to this subject, and at lenAlli succeeded, with
I the assistance of elaborate machinery, in being the first
to produce an article pure in its composition, and so refined
by the perfect trituration it receives in the process it passes
through, as to be most acceptable to the delicate stomach.
For general use Epps's Cocoa is distinguished as an invigo-
rating, grateful breakfast beverage, possessing a most deli-
cious aroma. Dr. Ilassall, in his work, "Food and its
Adulterations," says"" Cocoa contains a great variety of im-
portant nutritive principles—every ingredient necessary to
the growth and sustenance of the body." Again: "As a
nutritive, cocoa stands very much higher than either coffee
or tea." Directions—Two teaspoonfuls of the 'powder in a
breakfast cup, filled up with boiling water or milk. Secured
