of the excellent health which the army has erjoyed fo
some time past, but that no death from disease hasois: -
curred during the week. I believe one or two deaths
from accidents took place out of hospital ; hut for an
army of this strength, 00 service the field, to hare
lost no man by diease in a whole week is a remarkable
circumstance ; and when it is t:+ken into consideration
that only 14 men have died in three weeks, little 'need
be said about the character of the diseases that have
been prevalent in ca•up ; and as the ratio of ►ick to well
is only 44- per cent., the sanitary condition of the errby.
may fairly, I think, be pronounced satisfactory.: •
-Some of the divisions of the army have er joy ed on_
nsea!!y good health of late ; for instance, the highland
Division at samara has had only one death fur five
weeks, out of a strength of 4,360 men.
In the Third Division in camp no man has died for
23 days, out of a strength of 6,450 ; and in the Light
Division no death has occurred for a Lirtnight, out of a
strength of 6,460.
This favourable state of things does not, I am sorry:
to say, apply to the L.,nd Transport, in which there is
still a considerable amount of sickness anongat -the
young lads who Lave been sent out of late.
I have, Pi. ,
