A Healthy VILLAGE.

DR.. Frank Richardson writes to the London
Times from Harbottle, MOrpeth: "The interest
ing letters which have appeared in your columns
during the last week or two upon the mode OF
committing Earth to Earth tempt me to send
you the following instance Of q district In which
that unpleasant process is postponed in q singu-
larly unusual manner. The large parish of Al
Winton-With Holystone Is situated upon the south
ern slopes Of the CheViots, includes the upper
vale Of the CoQuet, and extends about twenty
miles in length and several in breadth, COM
prising a 472 acres. Its population has decreased
from 1895 at the census Of 1851 to 22 at that Of
1871. The occupations Of Its Inhabitants are
almost equally divided between the tending Of
sheep and the cultivation Of cereals upon lands
which rest In nearly similar proportions upon free
stone snd porphyry. During the year 1874 six
deaths occurred In this parish, being at the rate
ott7 per thousand, one Of those deaths being
ished in the recent snoWstorm. This mortality
was lower than usual; during the previous
age Of 10 per thousand. or these 100 deaths
there were 10 between 70 and so years Of age, and
curiously, q above go years, considerably more
ring in people above soyears old, or 27S.e per
thousand, Now, Is there anything exceptional In
the ages of the inhabitants to account for this
low death rate? The aged and very young,
among whom proPortionally the mortality Is
and TENTH, our parish clerk, died last week ct
the age Of eighty-three. In this village Of Har-
bottle, with one hundred and twenty Inhabitants,
there are thirty.seYen children under fourteen
years Of age, and during the last twenty years no
child has died, and for nearly four years no one
until the case Just mentioned. l may add another
instance Of the large proportion OF children ex-
isting and their immunity from death. A farmer
in this parish and his three shepherds, who have
years, have among them fortY.seven children, and
not single death has occurred 10 these families.
The Inhabitants have abundance OF plain, sub
stantial food excellent water, good residences as

Turf prnrnantI for 1878.

pared without their knowledge, and they had
reprimanded Grant for his indscretion.
