HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE

WEEK.

(From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return.)

Eleven hundred and eleven deaths were regis-
tered in London in the week that ended last Satur-
day. The average number of deaths in weeks cor-
responding with last week of the ten years 1852-61
(corrected) is 1,201. The present state of the public
health is therefore so far good that the number of
persons who died last week was less by 90 than the
number that would have been recorded if the ave-
rage rate of mortality for the third week of July
had prevailed.

The births of last week exceeded the deaths in the
same time by 701.

There were four deaths from smallpox, two of
which occurred in the sub-district of St. John, St
George-in-the-East. Typhus, of which 68 fatal cases
were recorded, exhibits an increase on any weekly
number returned since the middle of June. Nine
deaths out of the 68 are reported by the London
Fever Hospital. Four deaths by typhus occurred
in the Belgrave sub-district, four in that of the
Regent's Park. Measles and scarlatina were fatal
each in 55 cases. The former disease prevails chiefly
in the east districts, where it carried off nine chil-
dren in Bethnal-green, four in Shadwell. The
deaths from diarrhcea were the same in number as
those of the previous week—namely, 39. Besides
these, two cases are referred in the tables to cholera,
which are returned thus :—At 5, Union-court,
Whitechapel, a boy, aged four months, "choleraic
diarrhoea (20 hours) ;" and at 3, Potier-street, Kent-
road,
a labourer, aged 66 years, " choleraic
diarrhoea."
