Growth of England's Population

The increase of the population in Eng
land and Wales is still very rapid Accord
ing to the statistics for 1889, published bv
the registrar general, the births in that
year were 1856, 179, and the deaths ST, 1858, an
increase of 367, 211 within the twelve months,
without allowing for immigration. That
is good solid colony added to the popula-
ton every year. The total number now
exceeds 29,oOO,0 900, or six times the popula-
ton of Ireland, which was once much more
than half our own. The births of men ex-
coed those of women by 16,411, so that the
disproportion between the sexes in favor of
women is due entirely to emigration and
occupations abroad. But for these inter
vening causes the number of the sexes
would be nearly equal, the excess of male
deaths being more than 14,OOO At the
present rate of increase the population of
England and Wales will in 1870 be at least
sixty millions rather a formidable pros
pect if it were certain that the rates would
keep steady. There is, however, no GER
tainty of the kind.-London Spectator.

after the long winter of six months, and
the effect has been generally attributed
to faulty eyesight. DR.. Gyllencreutz has
