HEALTH OF LONDON _DURING THE WEEK

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

The returns, issued by authority of the Registrar-
General, for last week (exhibit a very high mor-
tality. In the week that ended January 11, the
deaths in London rose to 1,561; in that which fol-
lowed they fell to 1,391; and in the week that
ended last Saturday they again rose to 1,569. The
mean temperatures of the air in the last four weeks
have been 34.1 deg., 42.9 dg., 35 dg., and 36.1 deg.
The average number of deaths in the correspond-
ing weeks of ten previous years, corrected for in-
crease of population is 1,421. The mortality of last
week is in excess of the estimated amount by 148
deaths.
The deaths from bronchitis were 188, the cor-
rected average being 191; those from pneumonia
98, the average being 101 ; from asthma 25 against
28. The estimated and the actual results under
these several heads coincide very closely; and the
excess of deaths from all causes is not due to the
unusual predominance of these complaints. Phthisis
(or consumption) was fatal last week in 177 cases,
the average being 158 ; diseases of the heart in 86
cases against an average of 61; diseases of the ner-
vous system in 156 against 150.
The excess of mortality in the pre sent return
over the average must be referred in a considerable
degree to typhus and typhoid fever, which rose last
week to 94 deaths, and show a very decided increase
on the numbers under that head in previous weeks.
The 94 deaths stand against All average of 45. The
sub-district of Mile-end New-town returned 6
deaths from typhus, that of St. Peter, Walworth, 4 ;
the Dreadnought Hospital ship, . Amongst zy-
motic diseases whooping-cough was ft.; tal in the next
degree, and it rose to 86 deaths, the average being
66. There were also 19 from croup. Scarlatina
was fatal in 60 cases, 4 of which occurred in the
sub-district of St. Paul, Deptford.
Fourteen nonagenarians died last. week. The
two oldest were respectively 97 and 99 years.
An infant died at Crawford•passage, Marylebone,
from "want of sufficient nourishment, caused by the
poverty of its parents."
A butcher's journeyman, aged 50 years, died in
Featherstone-street, Finsbury, from " exposure and
want."
A man unknown, who was carried to St. Bar-
tholomew's Hospital, but found dead on arriving
there, is stated to have died from "cold and starva-
tion, with consumption and fatty liver."
A' woman, aged 67 years, the wife of a chair-
maker, died at 73, Pearson-street, Kingsland-road,
from "exhaustion from old age and extreme
poverty."
Last week the births of 900 boys and 901 girls,
in all 1,801 children, were registered in London.
In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1852-61
