Der is only made up to the 23d Of Deem
Der. Up to that day forty-nine deaths were
reported among the white and thirty-five
among the .colored population. We, have
estimated that at the same death-rate for the
balance of the year it will be Us above re-
ported. ,~sut st-...-
1t will be observed that there has been an
increase OF fiity-three deaths during the
past over the preceding year. This increase
Ia more than accounted for by the fatality
attending the epidemic of whooping
with which our city was afflicted during
the past year, seventy-two deaths having
been ascribed to that disease, while only
three deaths from that disease were report
ed in the previous year. The very intense
heat in July sensibly affected the death-list
OF that month, sunstroke causing eight
deaths, while in the preceding five years
only three deaths were reported from that
cause. .s. .s -.
The estimated population OF the city OF
the middle of the year was 10000, when
gives an increase Of only 1,430 to the white
and l,070 to the colored population.
The rate of mortality per 1000 OF the
whole population is 21.SG. The rate OF NOR.
tality of the white population is 1877; OF
the coIored population, 27.85.
