Thus, il will be seen that, within a fraction
two-thirds Of the mortality still proceeds FROM
cholera and the kindred diseases.
The proportion Of deaths Of natives OF the United
States to foreigners, is as follows -
Natives Of the United States. ................ s7
Natives Of other countries. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. .41g
II will be observed, that Ireland furnishes con-
siderably more than half Of the latter number,
namely, 2i2. II is worthy Of remark, that chill
dren born in this country, Of emigrants, no matter
how recently arrived, are set down IN the report
as Americans, so that, taking this into considera-
ton, with the fact that Of the entire number of
deaths, there are 29S, from birth up to two years,
the mortality Of native Americans, or Of persons
Injured to this climate, will be greatly diminished,
even from the small proportion it bears to the
deaths Of foreigners, on the face Of the report.
In the lower part of the city, the disease can
scarcely be said toexist now as an epidemic. 1t is
confined chiefly to the upper wards, particularlyhe
lIh, 18Th, 18th, and l7th and this may be accoun-
ted for from the filthy state In which those wards
are generally kept, and from the circumstance Of
their being Inhabited principally by the poorer and
more ignorant portion Of the population. One
cause Of mortality among them, is the abundant
sale of fruits, vegetables, and other provisions
unfit for human food at any time, much less in the
present crisis. For instance, in the 1lih ward,
cheese IL sold cents per H., potatoes for ceats
she half peck, "a shilling is the price ofgcod ones,
wilt,d cabbage, and green fruit shaken by the
first breath Of wind from the rotten branches. The
ptdlars purchase the refuse vegetables from the
nork ct people or the boats, and hawk them abou,
in carts, selling them TO the necessitous and the
simple, under the eye Of the Police Surely il tn.
Beard Of IIealn did it, duty, and f other officials
did their duty, these carts would be seized, and
their owners punished.
In connection with the Ilth ward, we have
singular circumstance TO relate. Among The re-
ports of deaths returned by physicians yesterday,
was the death Of one man by cholera, attended by
Dr Collins. Yesterday The death OF Dr.. Collins,
h.mself, Yves retained by another physician. lie
