HEALTH OF BOULOGNE.—The following is t xtrac.-
from a letter dated Boulogne, May 28 :—At the sr;
proach of the bathing season it may be as well to reasseki,
intending visitors as to the sanitary condition of i"0.
favourite place of resort, and to contradict anYunns
favourable impressions which may stiil remain ir:r.
last year. The alarm that was caused by the aPPfrot
ance at Boulogne of that severe form of sore thre
which had previously shown itself at Paris and 105°0
other points in the north of
-France, and has eie-0
appeared in several other places, is too well line."ng
for any injury to be done to the locality by referti„la
to it. But statistics now show, what, of course, ef:7o
not be known at the time, that' it was very far ir
ed
prevailing to the extent that was .at one moment infer
from a few unfortunate instances to which general atfe„n„.
ticn became directed. On the other hand, since last se
if
rm r the exsrt ions of the municipality have been strentioe:ba
and unremittingly engaged on the improvement of
sanitary condition of the locality, and the favourable
suit of these exertions is proved by the present low rli,„e,
of mortality, which is considerably under the avaree'o
I am assured that for several months past there bane
been no case of ;infautine febrile disorders at Bouleg;0
beyond those isolated instances which occur from tit
to time in every centre of population, and arise, 13,,
from any local cause, but from the very nature of thirl,ll
;
and that in this respect the health of B ulogne durivg
past winter can be advantageously compared with
-
t
of several of the neighbouring towns. The mortality dtin,
the Ist of January
ing the present ytar, 1857, has amounted to 315 fr°t7o
to the 26,h of May. being at tho Ineio
of 755 deaths a-year ; while in 1856 there were
deaths, 384 of which occurred between the Ist of Januced
ar
and the 17t!i of May. The mortality of 1855 exceed
es
of 1856. It is char, then, that the mortality bee
been diroieishirg
for some years past, while a still
satisfactory asqtrance is found from c imparing it t° tha
cltehe
population, which bliliough estimated at 34,739 bywo
census, is believed to amount to 40,000.
medical men of Boulogne are unanimous in ststliT,
that sit this ra,mun the public health is in a satisfactory
a
condition, anti one in accordance with the reputation
locality hair always enjoyed for salubrity. I think it's
only a matter of justice at the opening of the b rofrt!
,eaSOll to give those inter,sted in Boulogne an oPP_".„
tunity of sLitting the ti uth in regard to its sanitary err,
if not "
the
recto?, ruiL;bt tx,rcise an unfavourable fl
dition, and thus removing iiliressiiniswilituhe,nce

number of visitors."
