Low DEATH RATE.


Favorable Report Of the Health Of
Acer for Last View.
The favorable health conditions Of the
city continue. BY the reports to the health
department for the last week 1t is shown
that the low death rate was repeated last
week. By an unusual coincidence the num-
Der Of deaths. and consequently the death
rates. as well as the relative mortality be-
tween white and colored, were precisely the
same for the two weeks. Infant mortality
increased somewhat. probably owing to the
change in the atmospheric temperature
from the cool weather of the first Of the
month to the present heated term. There
was at the came time a material increase
in fatal cases Of consumption, while the
deaths from typhoid fever were equal in
runiber. Malarial fevers do not prevail to
any extent in dangerous form, and the alb
sence Of epidemic diseases renders the health
OF the city In very satisfactory condition
In view OF the season of the year.
The report for the week ending August
70 Is as follows: Number of deaths, 30;
white, 30; colored, 10. Death rate per LOCO
per annum, white, 1873; colored, 20. Total
population, 1I.3; Al were under five years of
age, 81 were under one year old and Is
over 90 years. Sixteen Of the deaths oc-
CURED in hospitals and public institutions
The deaths by classes were as follows:
Zymotfc, 20; constitutional, II; local. 81;
developmental, 9; violence, 2 The principal
causes Of death were: Diphtheria, 6; con-
SUMPTION 10; diarrhoeal IL: typhoid fever,
8; pr eumonia, a: bronchitis, s; whooping
cough. 4; kidney diseases. 1; meningitis. 3;
