lIEALTII OF LOIVE 'ON DURING' THE

wi OK.

(From the Report of ah,e Registrar-General.)

The deaths registeredi in London, which in the
previous week were 934,, in the week that ended
on Saturday (June 20t ;a) were 987. In the ten
years 1847-56 the are- rage number of deaths iu
the weeks correspondi og with last week was 966.
But as the deaths of last week occurred in an
increased population, the average, for the pur-
pose of comparison, she )nld be raised in proportion
to the increase, in whit h case it will become 1063.
Hence it appears that; the deaths nor returned
were less by 76 than vv ould have occurred if the
average rate of mortallj,%v had prevailed.
The births registers d last week exhibit an
excess of 540 over th.a deaths returned in the
same period.

The deaths referred t o the zymotic class of dis-
eases were in the previous weak, 164 ; last week*
they were 197. The in crease arises chiefly from
diarrhoea, which in the last four weeks was fetal
in 17, 26, 20, and 35 cases. Two thirds of the
35 cases occurred to infants. No death is recorded
in the week as caused by "English cholera," or
any other description of the disease. Two children,
aged 6 aud. 7 months died of chicken-pox
in Islington. Two eases of small-pox were
fatal ; one in Poplar ancl one in Marylebone. Both
measles and diarrhoea numbered more deaths in the
E tst districts than in the other par's of the metro-
polis ; the former oomph tint appearing to be chiefly
in the Shoreditch distr id, in Bethnal-green and
Limehouse. Hooping-e nigh is now slightly on the
decline ; 41 children (a smaller number than has
been obtained for a lo ng period) died of it last
week. The illness of a. child who died of measles
and typhoid fever was supposed by its father to
have been caused by ei ding some pork in au un-
sound state. Four children died of syphilitic dis
ease ; one person of isch.uria, one of diabetes, one
of elephantiasis ; 3 pereons were the victims of in-
intemperance, besides 4 whose deaths are assigned
to delirium tremens. Five nonagenarians died
in the week, all, with ou.e exception, women and
widows. ne was 92 ye ars of age, one 94, one 95,
and two had attained the age of 96.
Last week the births of 764 boys and 763 girls,
in all 1,572 children, we re registered in London.
In the ten corresponding weeks of the years
1847-56 the average nuns .ber was 1,465.
At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer in the week was 22.882 in.
The mean reading of Thursday was 30.015 inches.
The highest reading was 30.09 in. at the beginning
of the week. The mean, temperature of the week
was 60.3 deg., which is 1 deg. above the average of
the sat le week in 43 ye: irs (as determined by Mr.
Glaisher). The highest reading of the thermometer
in the shade was 84 deb'. on Saturday ; and the
mean temperature of the same day was 69.1 deg.,
which is 9.3 deg. above the average. The lowest
reading was 38.8 on Sun day (the 14th) • and the
range of the week was 45.2 deg. The highest
reading of a thermometer in the sun was obtained
on Friday, and was 106 d eg. The mean dew-point
temperature was 51.2 deg., and the difference be-
tween this and the mean air temperature was 9.1
deg. The mean temperature of the water of the
Thames was 621 deg. The temperature of the
river rose to 64.7 deg. Sat urday. The wind, which
was in the south-east and east on Sunday and Mon-
day, changed to north-east, and continued in that
direction till Friday at noon, after which it blew
from the east. The amount of rain in the week
was 0.85 in., all of which fell on Saturday. A
violent thunder storm occurred at 40 minutes past
12 on the morniug of that day ; and rain fell to the
amount of 5-tenths of an inch within ten minutes.
