It is sta'ed that under the term Metropolis are com-
prised the 32 districts herein mentioned, which include tho
City cf London within and without the walls, the City and
Liberties of Westminster, the out parishes within the
bills of mortality—and the parishes of St. Marylebone ;
St. Pancras ; Kensington; Fulham ; Hammersmith
(Chapelry) ; St. Luke, Chelsea; Paddington; St. Mary,
Stoke Newington; St. Leonard, Bromley; St. Mary- !c-
-how ; Camberwell ; Greenwich ; St. Nicholas and St.
Paul, Deptford; and Woolwich. The population as enu-
merated in 1831 was 1,494,890. The weekly average for
1838 was obtained by dividing the deaths registered in th4t
year by 52. In comparing it with the weekly deaths in
1840, it must be borne in mind that the metropolis in-
creases nearly two per cent. annually ; and that, if the
population had been the same in 1838 as in 1840, the deaths
would [lave been 1-27th part more numerous.

A short time ago, says a provinctal journal, an
inhabitant of the Tillage of St. Daunt, in the Creuse, desired
one of his sons, who 's seventy-nine years of age, to have the
horses put to the plough, and went into a field with it, accom-
panied by his faintly ; he then held the plough, and when he
had worked for souse time, said, taking off his hat, " Dfy chil-
dren, let. us return thanks to God. Telt your friends that vour
ancestor, after his hundredth year, ploughed the field Which
gives you subsistence. I yesterday reached my hundredth
year."—French Paper.
