THE PUBLIC HEALTH.

(From the Quarterly Return of the Registrar General.)
The return of births and deaths and marriages
registered in the divisions, counties, and districts
of England, by authority of the Registrar-General,
comprises the births and deaths registered by 2,197
registrars in all the districts of England during the
autumn quarter that ended Dec. 31, 1860; and the
marriages in 12,449 churches or chapels, about
4,342 registered places of worship unconnected
with the established church, and 631 superinten
tendent registrar's offices, in the quarter that ended
Sept. 30, 1860.
The quarterly returns are favourable, and imply
that the population was not only more prosperous
but healthier than usual. Births slightly decreased,
but marriages became more frequent, and the mor-
tality fell below the average: The improvement in
health was greatest in the town districts.
The accounts of births and deaths for the year
1860 show an increase of the birth and a decrease
of the death rate. 81,144 persons married in the
quarter that ended on Sept. 30; and the marriage
rate was 1,608, or higher than in any correspond-
ing quarter since 1856, but slightly
below the ave-
rage of ten summer quarters. The increase of mar-
riages was most striking in London and in Lanca-
shire. 162,248 children were born and registered
in the last quarter of the year 1860; or more by
4,286 than were registered in the last quarter of
1858, and 7,843 less than the number in the last
quarter of 1859. The birth rate of the quarter was
3.203; the average of the quarter 3.232..683,430
children were registered in the year 1860; and the
annual birth-rate was 3.418, making .014 above the
annual average. Taking one day with another
through the year, 1,867 children were born daily.
The births exceeded the deaths in the quarter
by 59,691, and that was the , natural increase
of the population. In the year the natural increase
of England and Wales was 260,930 souls-713
daily. If Scotland tind Ireland increase at the same
rate the natural increase of the population of the
United Kingdom must have been at the rate of
1,069 daily. Emigration carried off a part of the
increase. In the quarter about 7,047 English emi-
grants sailed from the ports at which there are
Government emigration offices; nearly in equal
proportions to the United States and the Australian
colonies.

'THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITIPS
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

DR. KAHN on MARRIAGE.—A new and
entirely re-written Edition (the 4F,th) of this celebrated
Treatise, with new Steel Plates, Woodcuts, kc., is now ready.
The object of the work is not to maintain any particular
hypothesis, but to enable everyone to understand for himself
the structure and functions of the organs concerned in the
fulfilment of the physical obligations of the married stale;
to acquaint him with the consequences arising from excesses ;
to prevent unnecessary misapprehension from unfounded
fears, and to indicate, when those fears are well founded, the
means of speedy relief. The work is not crowded with the
technicalities of ordinary professional books, nor does it pre-
sent the crudeness which characterises the so-called "popular
works" on the subject.

The scarcity or the abundance of the principal
articles of food is shown by their prices. Wheat
was 56s 9d a quarter, or 31 per cent higher than it
was in the corresponding quarter of 1859. Beef at
the Leadenhall and Newgate markets was sold by
the carcase at 4-1 d a pound, or nearly id less. Mut-
ton was on an average 51-d a pound, and remained
the same as in the last months of 1859. The potato
crop partially failed, and York Regents, at the
waterside market, sold at 122 s 6d a ton, or at the
rate of 141 b. for a penny. The price of this uni-
versal article of food rose progressively in the last
three months of the three years 1858-59-60 from
87s 6d to 102 s 6d and 122 s 6d a ton. To supply its
deficiency other antiscorbutic vegetables, fruit, or
herbs are required.
The meteorology of the season was peculiar.
Pauperism gradually declined; and the paupers
fell from 826,655 to 793,391, and 788,838 receiving
relief on an average during the last quarters of the
Tears 1858-59-60. 102,557 deaths were registered
in the last quarter of the year 1860, and the annual
rate of mortality during the season was 2.024. The
mortality was 0.158 below the average. Upon mak-
ing up the account for the year the deaths are
found to be 422,500; and the annual rate of morta-
lity 2.113, or a little more than 21 in 1,000. The
average of the preceding 10 years is 22. So one
life in every 1,000 living was saved. Yet the mor-
tality of England and 'Wales is still greatly in
excess of the rate experienced in the least unhealthy
districts. The deaths instead of 102,557 would
at that rate have been 79,283 ; so during the 92
days, 23,274 persons died unnatural deaths in
the least unhealthy country in Europe. Upon
looking at the country generally, epidemic
diphtheria still prevails in parts of the kingdom ;
measles, whooping-cough, small-pox, scarlatina,
fever, also so frequently mentioned in the regis-
trar's notes that they may be considered prevailing
epidemics. It is the characteristic of these zymotie
diseases that they do not depend upon general
atmospheric conditions, but are often very fatal in
one community, while they are entirely absent from
another in the same climate.

at the Corn Exchange, Rochester, for the purpose
of hearing addresses from Mr. Sergeant Kinglake
and Mr. P. W. Martin, the represer'tatives of that
city in the House of Commons.

The spacious room was decorated with flags,
banners, and evergreens, and over the platform a
tasteful device was suspended, with the motto, " The
light men in the right place."
The chair was occupied by Mr. S. STEELE,
.who commenced the proceedings by briefly
alluding to the past services of the honour-
able members, and stated that the pre-
sent meeting had been convened at the Corn Ex-
change in order to obtain a fair hearing for their
representatives, who had been grossly insulted on a.
former occasion when they held a meeting at the
Town Hall.

In London the mortality was below the average;
the deaths were 15,197.
The severe weather occurred late in December,
and its effects on the mortality will only be fully
apparent in the next return.

A MOTHER AND Del UGRTER RIVAL
WOOERS.

The tender susceptibilities of many a fair damsel
residing at Risca were lately shocked by the occur-
rence of a matrimonial monstrosity and atrocity
that has seldom been equalled in those virtuous
vales. The question has been seriously discussed
in all its aspects, by not only the maidens and
widows of the district, who are the parties princi-
pally interested, but also by the married folks, the
even tenor of whose course has been disturbed by:a
gross desecration of the laws of propriety, if not of
nature. Some 12 months ago a lad of the village
wooed, and it was supposed won, the budding affec-
tions of a lass who resided with her father and
mother. After the usual preliminaries of wooing
and cooing had been exhausted, the young couple
panted for the novelty to be found in the honeymoon.
But a difficulty presented itself. The intended bride
had a little of the becoming pride of her sex, and
she demurred to marry her swain until he had
equipped himself with a new suit of clothes, in
which to exhibit to advantage on his wedding day
the well knit and muscular limbs and whipcord
sinews that would make the bride the envy of the
lasses around. Joskin, not being well up in this
world's wealth, was somewhat disconcerted at this
condition, which it was not easy to comply with.
Now it so happened that six months previously the
mother of the gentle maid had become a widow, and
the first bitter pang of grief having subsided, the
buxom widow commenced to look out for a helpmate,
and after vainly scanning the horizon in search of
a mate she at length fixed her fascinating glance
on no other than her daughter's betrothed, pro-
mising to take him with or without a suit
as it best suited himself, inasmuch as she
only wished to secure his person and not his clothes.
This adroit proposition was, will it be believed,
readily assented to, and the daughter's affections
were duly transferred to the mother, to the horror
of all the maids of the district, who look with dis-
gust upon the success of the old 'un. The happy
pair were duly wed a few days ago, to the unut-
terable disgust of the jilted fair, who was robbed
of the darling of her heart by her gentle mammy.
The widows of the district feel elated at the success
of the veteran of 50, who succeeded in bearing off
the prize from juvenile 20, the age of the disap-
pointed one. The latter with some sympathising
young female friends endeavoured to get up a de-
monstration, with tin pans and kettles, to welcome
the return of the deceitful pair. The first husband
of the new triumphant wife died some ten months
ago in the lunatic ward of the Newport Union
House.—/flonmouthshire Merlin.

Mr. P. W. MARTIN, who was received with
cheers, observed that it would have been more plea-
sant for him and his colleague to have convened a
meeting of the whole constituency at the Guildhall,
but they were aware that a number of men, on a
former occasion, created a riot, and thus upset the
meeting. With reference to his parliamentary
conduct, he believed that he was able to give a
satisfactory account of his stewardship. He had
warmly supported the commercial treaty with
France, and the free trade budget of the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, who was worthily following out
the principles of that great statesman, Sir Robert
Peel. Those principles had conferred inestimable
blessings upon the nation, especially when it was
considered that, in consequence of the failure of the
harvest last year, we were compelled to depend to
a:great extent upon other countries for a supply of
food. He had voted _for the, _repeal of the paper
duty, and hoped that, notwithstanding the opposi-
tion offered, that measure would yet be carried. The
aggression of the House of Lords prevented the
budget from being passed in an unmutilated state,
and he thought the Liberal party in the House of
Commons did not manage the paper question so well
as it might have been done. Hewes quite satisfied
that the right of taxation, or remitting taxes, rested
with the House of Commons; and should the rejec-
tion of the paper bill by the Lords ever be urged as
a precedent, he should be one of the first to vindi-
cate the constitutional prerogative of the Commons.
At every Conservative meeting it was urged
that the budget had brought about distress
amongst the paper-makers and'' taivation amongst
the Coventry weavers. He had not. sufficient
evidence to believe that much distress existed
amongst the papermakers, but as he resided
about nine miles from Coventry he could bear tes
timony to the dire misery which had prevailed in
that city. At the same time he did not believe
that this poverty resulted from the budget, but it
arose from a diminished demand for the staple pro-
duce—ribbon. He believed, with Lord Brougham,
that war contained within itself every element of
evil, and he should strongly oppose any interference
on the part of this country with the affairs of foreign
nations. It was highly important to be properly
armed and prepared, and vigorous measures had
been taken to procure an efficient army and navy.
He trusted, however, that an attempt would now
be made to retrench the expenditure of the coun-
try, and on carefully looking over the estimates of
last year he could find many items which ought to
be reduced. The Reform Bill introduced by Lord
JOhn Russell had received his support ; but on
account of the pressure of public business the bill,
as they were aware, was withdrawn. It was gene-
rally considered that the Reform question would
not be introduced by the Government during the
next session, but he should always be anxious to
vote for a real measure of Reform which would
enfranchise the working classes, and protect them
exercising it. Alluding to local questions, Mr Mar-
tin expressed his satisfaction that Rochester had
been admitted as one of the favoured ports for the
importation of French wines ; and the recent Admi-
ralty order, combined with the Superannuation
Act, would confer a great boon upon the dockyard
labourers, who abounded in that district. The
Rochester Conservatives had accused himself and
Sergeant Kinglake of being silent members; but if
they did not often speak in the House, they were
constant in their attendance, and had not omitted
to vote upon all those questions which were im-
portant to the country at large, and affected the
interests of their constituents. Mr. Martin resumed
his seat amidst repeated applause.
Mr. Sergeant KINGLAKE, who was well received,
observed, that when returned for the city of
Rochester he determined to enter the House of
Commons as a free and independent member, not
to obey the biddings of a faction or party, but to
maintain and endeavour to extend the great bless-
ings of constitutional freedom. At the commence-
ment of the last session, the people looked forward
in anxious anticipation that many important
measures would be passed, and, above all, that the
great question of parliamentary reform, which had
so often been shelved, would be settled. These
hopes had not been fully realised, and it was the
opinion of many—and he confessed he shared in
that opinion—that much valuable time was wasted.
There were also many unavoidable circumstances
which impeded the progress of legislation, but it
was his firm opinion that the fate of the Reform
Bill resulted from the apathy, and even the obstruc-
tion, of numerous Liberal members, some of whom
sat for largo constituencies, and who, in violation
of their hustings' promises, did not give the veteran
reformer, Lord John Russell,,that determined sup-
port which he had a right to expect from. the
Liberal party. He was in the House of Commons
when Lord John Russell introduced his bantling,
and witnessed the anxious faces of numerous
Liberal members, many of whom looked the picture
of melancholy. It was a fact 'that some Liberal
members who represented large boroughs, did not
fancy going through the ordeal of an election too
often, and when the bill was introduced they
reflected—Ah, is this the last time I shall held a seat
in this house. Then they looked to the other
benches, and *saw the Conservative party smiling
—they fratelnised together, and ultimately the
poor bantling reform bill was pinched and pulled
about, and tossed from one to the other, until
after a few gasps and faint cries it expired, to

IMPORTANT TO SPIRIT DRINKERS.-Dr E. Smith,
says the Medical limes and Gazette, has recently exhibited,
in active operation, at the Medical Society of London and
the Society of Arts, the new French test for the detection
of alcohol in the breath and the perspiration. The test is
prepared by dissolving 1 part of biehromate of potass in 300
parts of strong sulphuric acid, and it is applied by simply
breathing or passing the vapour from the skin through a
drachm of it. M. Lallemand made his experiments upon
the skin of the dog; but Dr. Smith has shown that bv en-
closing the arm of a man in a caoutchouc bag, ,through
which a current of air is made to pass, the presence of alcohol
may be detected at the end of one, two, three, and four
hours after alcohol has been taken, and doubtless it might
be shown for a much longer period. He finds that it is best
shown in those who perspire freely. The experiments are
very striking, and those upon the akin are full of interest
and importance.
