Persons ton

1t will be seen that of the larger cities in this
list, or those having above % 900 families. New
York has the greatest number of persons to a
dwelling, and Washington the lowest. In New
York the number to a dwelling stands as high
rs H.12, while in this city there are but $50 to
the house. This amplitude of house room, to-
gether with the ample ventilation afforded by
our wide streets and divergent avenues, ac-
counts, doubtless, for the low death-rate Of
Washington.
This city. it Is constantly remarked, is much
cooler in summer, than cities further north and
from the same causes. The circulation of air is
unchecked here, and finds il way, from what
ever quarter the wind may blow, through the
city by means either of the numbered or lettered
streets, or the great avenues intersecting the
streets at various angles. The number of cases
of sun-stroke in Washington Is very small in
proportion to population to that in New York,
or even in Philadelphia, where tall buildings
and narrow streets, intersecting at right angles,
effactually stop any general circulation of air.
As the area of available ground for building
purposes is large in Washington, it is not prob
able that the ratio of persons to the dwelling
will ever be greatly increased beyond the pres
ent healthy proportions.
