THE deaths in the cities Of New York;
Brooklyn and Philadelphia during the late,
hot weather were equal to those ip times of
epidemic. New York nearly trebled its usual
mortality, and Brooklyn exceeded New York;
while the mortality of Philadelphia was
double the ordinary average. Baltimore;
although It suffered severely, has reason to
congratulate itself that it escaped so we'll:
Its cleanly condition, and the fact that there
is within its limits but very little crowding
in tenement houses in comparison with other
cities, partly accounts for its having passed
through the ordeal with Comparatively small
proportion Of deaths.
