~ ,sea PUBLIC HEALTH.—The quarterly returns ob-
tained from 115 districts, 34 placed under the metropolis,
anti the remaining 81 comprising, with some agricultural
districts, the principal towns and cities of Ei:gland, the
population having been 6,578,912 in 1841, show that the
deaths registered in the last quarter, ending the 30th of
September, were 38,784, or 141 less than the deaths
(33,925) in the June quarter, and 1,701 more tt,an
37,083, the average of five previous September quarters.
Allowing for the increase of population, the mot tality
will be found to be about the average of the stunint r
quarter (July, August, and September); that quarter
being now the least fatal in the year. Tlie deaths in the
metropolis amounted to 11,825, which are 354 more than
were registered in the spring quarter, and 694 above the
average uncorrected for the increase of population.
The deaths from small-pox in the first week of
the quarter were 36, in the last 37 ; from scarlatina
58 in the first week, 85 in the last, and 99 in
the tenth. '.teazles was fatal, but to a small
extent ; typhus showed a tendency to increase, for
the deaths from this disease, including what is some-
times called "common continued fever," and "fever,"
amounted to 424, while the average is 352. In the
country districts the most remarkable increase of mor-
tality occurred in Cornwall, and the Redruth and Pen-
zance districts. Small-pox has been epidemic in many
districts all over the kingdom, and has proved fatal to
great numbers, whose vaccination had been; neglected.
The districts in which the mortality was greater than
the mean mortality of the corresponding quarter in the
same district are stated to have been the west, north,
and south distsicts of the metropolis, Portsea Island
St. Alban's, Wycombe, Bedford, Colchester, Plymouth,
Redruth, Penzance, Stroud, Hereford, Shrewsbury, Kid-
derminster, Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Aston, Co-
ventry, Nottingham, Liverpool, West Derby, Blackburn,
Chorlton, Bradford, Merthyr Tydvil ; while those in
which the mortality was less than the average mortality
of the corresponding quarter in the same districts are
said to have been the central districts of the metropolis,
Norwich, Devizes, Exeter, Basford, Stockport, Maccles-
field, Great Boughton, Bury, Prescot, Seaford, Ashton,
Sheffield, Hull, Sunderland, Tynemouth, Newcastle-on-
Tyne, Pontypool, and Wrexham.
OFFERTORY AT BRIDGWATER.—It is ;aid that if
this practice be continued much longer in St. Mary's
Church, our townsmen intend resisting the payment of
church-rates. One of the two must go. at all events.--
