HEALTH of LONDON during the WEEK.
(From the Registrar-General's Return.)
In the week ending last Saturday the deaths re-
gistered in the metropolitan districts were 893, a
number wbich shows an excess of 56 on the return
of the previous week, but a reduction of 269 on the
corrected average of five autumns. If the present
return be compared with that made in the same week
of each of the years 1840 8, it will be found that,
with but one exception (in 1841, when the deaths
were 841), the mortality ranged formerly from
910 to 1,165, and therefore was considerably
higher than in last week, though the popula-
tion in those years was less. The increase
of 56 now observed on the week ending No-
vember 3 partly arises from pneumonia and bron-
chitis, the deaths from which become more numerous
as the winter advances, having been 104 in the
previous week, 127 in the last. The total number of
deaths from cholera in the week was only six (five
less than in the previous week); in the same week of
1848 there were 62. The steady decline of diarrhea
and dysentery is shown by the numbers of the last
five weeks, which were respectively 105, 63, 51,40,
and 29. A boy died of diarrhea in Peterborough-
row, Fulham, whose father had been carried off by
cholera in September ; a boy of the same disease at
l3rudenell-place, New North-road, from an unwhole-
some condition of the house ; and a girl at Maidstone-
place, in the house in which a death from cholera,
reported in the former week, occurred, and in a locality
then described as " low and ill-drained." Of the six
deaths from cholera, one occnrred in Water-lane, Ho-
merton ; one at Weatherhead-g ardens (Hackney-road),
a place low, undrained and drenched by waste water ;
one in Christchurch, St. Saviour's ; •one at Drummond-
road, St. James's, Bermondsey
one in Walwortb,
and one in Lambeth.
A death
occurred
a
fromapoplexy, on
curr
w,,ich an inquest was held,in Huntingdon-
street, lloxton. The deceased was
a woman
under-
an of 65,
a
who for the last four years had lived
ground cellar, which is only 11 feet in length, 8 feet
6 inches in width, 5 feet 9 inches in height, and sunk
5 feet 7 inches below the surface of the street! A
small window scarce gives light or ventilation, and
" the walls," says the registrar, " are so damp that
you might brush the water from them."
The mean daily reading of the barometer was above
30 inches on the last three days of the week. The
mean of the week was 29-732. The temperature on
the last three days was considerably higher than the
average of the same days in seven years. The mean
of the week was 50.2 degrees, which is higher than
the average by 4.1.

BODY FOUND ♦_ CLAYGATE, NEAR ESHER.—On
Monday afternoon, in consequence of information reach-
ing Wandsworth, of the discovery of the body of a man
supposed to be murdered, in a pond at Claygate, a lonely
place near Esher, and the description coinciding with
that of a man named Frederick Phipps, who had been
missing from Wandsworth since Friday last, Mrs.
Phipps, the mother of that individual, proceeded to
Claygate, and identified the body as that of her
SOH, who was potman to Mrs. Sumner, the Ram
Inn, Wandsworth. Deceased left that house on
Friday morning, and from that time was never seen
alive. His absence creating suspicion, inquiries were made
by Mrs. Sumner amongst her customers, and it was
found that several whom he had debited with rather
large amounts owed little or nothing. Fer some time
past the deceased, who had always been considered a
faithful servant, had drank very freely, and shown at
times symptoms of insanity. He had given out that
he had come into some money, and he was going to open
a greengrocer's shop. The deceased, who was 35 years
of age, ,is supposed to have pawned his watch and
chain on his departure from Wandsworth to supply
himself with money, and it is believed that having spent
it, and fearing punishment after the detection of his de-
linquencies, he determined on self-destruction.
ALLEGED DEATH FROM IMPURE VACCINE LYMPH.
—Tuesday forenoon an inquest was resumed for the
third time, and concluded before Mr. T. Wakley, M.P.,
the coroner, at the Vineyard House, Vineyard-walk,
Clerkenwell, touching the death of an infant named
Rosina Elizabeth Pilcher, aged four months, who was
alleged to have died from the effects of impure lymph.
The jury returned a verdict—" That the deceased died
from erysipelatous inflammation, which had been pro-
duced by a puncture on the left arm for vaccination, and
they were of opinion that there was a want of sufficient
care on the part of the operator."

D. Graham, Edinburgh, grocer, to meet Nov. 19 and
Dec. 10, at two, within the Railway Station Hotel, Edin-
burgh.

DREADFUL FIRE AT CIRENCESTER.—An alarm-
ing conflagration took place at about a quarter before
six o'clock this morning at Cirencester, on premises
occupied by Mr. Daniel Thomas, hatter, Cricklade-
street, and which could not be subdued until after the
entire stock had been destroyed. Both Mr. Thomas and
his wife were severely burnt, and, in consequence of the
fierceness with which the flames raged, narrowly escaped
with their lives. The disaster appears to have aris4n
from a spark falling from a candle upon some paper
while Mr. Thomas was packing up a quantity of goods
for Fairford fair. We understand that the stock was
insured.—Cheltenham Journal of Tuesday.
YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN Assocuatorr.—On Tues-
day evening the Rev. Hugh Stowell delivered the first of
a series of lectures to the members of the above associa-
tion, in the large room at Exeter-hall. The subject
selected by the Rev. Gentleman was. according to the
bills, " the Bible self-evidential," a plirase which means,
we
apprehend, that the holy volume authenticates itself.
For upwards of an hour and a half Mr. Stowell, in his
usual animated and energetic style, enlarged on the
principal doctrines of Christianity,
arguing' that from
their nature man never could have imarined or devised
them. In the more forcible passages of his lecture his
audience frequently paid him the tribute of loud cheer-
ing and applause, which alone secularized the character
of the meeting. The room was crowded to excess--
floor, platform, and galleries—by a highly respectable
body of men and women, who heard Mr. Stowell with
great attention throughout his long and eloquent ad-
dress.

EAST AND WEST INDIA DOCKS AND NORTH-
WESTERN JUNCTION.—There were no fewer than 44
tenders sent in for the formation of this company's line
lying between the Lea-cut Canal and Blackwall, and the
"difference between the highea land the lowest tender was
no less than 16,0001,
