The Bill of Mortality for the past week shows
much lower number of deaths frem cholera than
might have been expected. Only 53, or 20 per cent.
of the whole number of deaths, from that
During the corresponding week in lo49 there were
l,4C9 deaths, of which ia, or 80 per cent, were
from cholera At that ratio, allowing for increase of
population, there should have been last week 973
deaths, of which 1000 would have been from cholera.
The weather during the past week was intensely hot
hotter, including Sunday We think, than for any
period of similar length within recollection The
mortality among children amounts to the standard
figure of 60 per cent, while for the same week in
1e49 it was only 40 per cent. OF course the great
weight of mortality from cholera falls upon persons
of foreign birth, unused to our climate.

Of the same Court whose Judgment we not long since

exception of Mr. Justice Crawford, agree in this
view of the question. They hold the law to be
stitutional because it entruss the adudca lion of

great acuteness and dignity and presents the points

As our readers will see by the news from the Sand
witch Islands which appears in another column, the
Legislature the Islands has treated the question Of
annexation in quite significant way sundry pe,i.
tons had been presented against the measure and it
was moved to go into joint session of the two Houses
for their consideration. That motion was laid on the
table, showing plainly which way the feeling runs in
the Legislature. STILL we suppose th. i. not to be
ascribed to any immediate knowledge on the part of
the Lower House that treaty is on foot and nearly
completed for the contamination of the scheme In
