Cholera Statistics.

Several incorrect statements having been pub
lshed in the papers, with regard to the number of
cases and deaths by cholera in this city, in 1892
and 1884, we have taken the trouble to examine
the records OF the Board of Health, at the City
Hall, and from them we have prepared the follow
ing abstracts, which may be relied on as correct.
We may remark, that in few instances, where
the records of the Board of Health are unac-
countaby deficient, we have endeavored to supply
the deficiencies by referring to files of newspapers
published at the time, when the public mind was
alive to the subject, and when accuracy IN reports
was attempted by the journals of the day.
THE CHOLERA or 1892.
The first case of Asiatic cholera which occurred
IN the city, IN 1882, said to have been on the
9th June, but such were the disputes among ply
slcians and others, that the Board of Health ar
rived at definite conclusion until the 81 of July,
when up to that time it appeared that twelve cases
and eleven deaths by cholera had taken place.
From that time until the 18th August, daily re-
ports of cases and deaths by cholera were made
by the Board of Health, as folows:-
