BOARD OF TRADE.

A return was last week issued by the Board of Trade
of the declared value of British and Irish produce and
manufactures exported from the United Kingdom in the
year 1849, specifying the amount to each country and
colony. From this we have compiled the following list,
which will show the order in which the various com-
muniti(s of the world rank as our customers. It will be
observed that our own possessions and the United States
take ni arly one-halt c f the entire total, but Germany
occupies the third place, and such as to warrant there-
fore, even in a merely commercial point of view, the
greatest anxiety for the preservation of peace within
her territories. The States of Central and South
America, from Mexico to Brazil and Buenos Ayres,
would, however, if they were all included under one
head, make a total larger than that of Germany, the
amount of our shipments to them being between
7,000,0001. and 8,000,0001, which is also more than
double what is taken of us by Russia and France
together:-

HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK.
(Published by authority of theeßegistrar-General.)
The increase of mortality, noticed in the previous
week, is still apparent to nearly the same extent in the
week ending last Saturday. The deaths registered
Which,and 945, in the two pre-
eh;
dtilnlegrnweeterkosp,olwitearne districts,respeeti vely 845
num-
bered last week 921. In the corresponding weeks of
the ten years 1840-9 the average Was 963, which, if
raised in the ratio of supposed increase of population,
becomes 1,051, and shows a difference in favour of
last week to the amount of 130. The mortality from
pneumonia (or inflammation of the lungs) and asthma
nearly equals the average, while that from bronchitis
exceeds it; and though the deaths from all diseases
are diminished, as compared with last week's return,
those from that class of complaints of which the above
are the most important have increased; for, in the
prececlieg week, the deaths from diseases of the res•
piratory organs were 138—last week they were 171.
But, it will be seen that phthisis (or consumption),
which has this year been less fatal than usual, is not
included in this observation ; for, while in the pre-
vious week it was fatal in 112 cases, last week there
were only 93—a considerably less number than in any
of the 10 corresponding weeks in 1840-9, when they
ranged between 107 and 138. The present time
seems to be unfavourable to the health of the aged,
but more propitious to the young. Eleven children
died of smallpox, besides a man who had nearly at-
tained the age of 60; 22 of measles, 28 of hooping-
cough, 33 of scarlatina, and 7 of croup. Fever is
now the epidemic which is most productive of fatal
results ; last week 55 persons, of whom about a half
were of middle age, were its victims. In connexion
with various deaths from fever, the registrars draw
attention to local nuisances ; but the following case,
which occurred in Wild-passage,
St. Giles's, is espe-
cially worthy of notice :—The child of a labourer
died there on the 33 of this month from typhus, mak-
ing the third death which, according to the state-
ment of the mother, has taken place amongst her
children, in the same house, within six months. In
the d welling (added the informant) there is a constant
and intolerable smell from the drains. The death of
a boy, aged 22 months, is registered as caused by
" typhus, loss of blood from the throat by leeches."
Fatal cases of diarrhoea and dysentery do not exceed
20; and the following is the only instance in which
cholera is mentioned :—At 6, Pitt-street, St. George's-
road, the son of a shoemaker, aged 10 months, died of
"fever (2 days), infantile cholera (12 hours)." The
deaths of three persons are ascribed directly or indi-
rectly 7 to intemperance; and that of a woman in Jen-
ning s- buildings, Kensington, to want and exposure.
The births of 851 boys and 726 girls were regis-
tered in the week.

CAMBORNE,--EARLY LAMBING.--On the 4th inst.,
an ewe, the property of Mr. William Jackson, of Treswitbian,
yeaned two lambs. The same ewe yeaned two lambs in
January last. Such fecundity is of very rare occurrence in
this neighbourhood.—Cornwall Gazette.
