JOHN SIMON." From the tables, which go into very minute details, we extract the following particulars : No. 1, which contains an analysis of the year's mortality as to the four quarters of the year, and states the population of the City to be 129,682; it appears that the deaths in four quarterly periods, terminating as follows, were : 1. 1851, Dec. 27, 773 deaths. 2. 1852, Marehi27, 773 deaths. 2, June 25, 774 deaths. 4. Sept  Half-and-ball ll 0 Garrick ,. 10 12  Malmsbury lO 10 Willingham lO 8 Reiver lO 6  Old Wells lO 41 Wee Mickey lO 4 Forest LA lO 4, Viotress Scavenger  25, 717 deaths. The second table contains an enumeration of deaths during the last four years, as distributed in sub-districts and districts or unions. From the table it appears that the total mortality, of the City has been : In 1848-9, 3,763 deaths ; in 1849.50, 2,752 deaths ; in 1850-1,1 2,978 deaths ; in 1851.2, 3.064 deaths. Total of four' years, 12,557 deaths. During the year 1848-9, there were 15 cases of death, in the registration of which the residence was imperfectly recorded. These cases, therefore, though included in the total (3,763) are excluded from the sub-district enumeration. The third table contains deaths of the last four years stated separately and conjointly, classified according to ages, and distributed in unions. To this table is appended the following note. During the year 1648-9 there were 15 cases, and during the year 1850-1 two cases, in respect of which the particulars of age or reeldonee could mot be ascertained with sufficient accuracy for the purposes of this table. The addition of them to the total amounts in the table would give the correct number of deaths for those years, viz., 3,763 and 2,978 respectively, and 9,493 for the general total. I have likewise been enabled to introduce some corrections in my account of the mortality during the first year. At that time my means for accurate registration of deaths were necessarily imperfect, and my first death list contained 36 cases (chiefly of certain patiehts in St. Bartholomew's Hospital) which ought not to have been reckoned to the mortality of the City. In carefully revising my tables of that date I have excluded these cases, and ' have thereby reduced the total number of deaths in the year in question to 3,763. In the report referred to it was estimated at 3,799. The fourth table contains the comparative fatality during the last four years of certain acute diseases, chiefly epidemic infections and endemic. It appears from this table that of typhus fever there died in 1849, immediately before the dreadful visitation of the cholera, 166 individuals ; and that in the present year, which many medical men are of opinion will immediately precede another cholera season, there have been swept away 165, being within one of the number which heralded the approach of the terrific malady. From the same table it appears that to the smallpox, which medical men concur in placing under the head of murder, are attributed 96 deaths within the last year. In 1849, the smell-pox killed 17 ; in 1850, 33 ; in 1851, 41 ; end in 1852, 96. The report, together with its valuable tables, was ordered to be printed, and a copy was ordered to be sent to every member of the court, and of the Court of Common Council.  AUSTRALIAN EMlGRATlON.—Ernigration from the United States to Australia does not appear to bave made t o much progress as was anticipated. From the beginning of June to the end of September only fourteen vessels had left with about I,SUO passengers, a large number of whom were from Canada. SUDDEN DEATH or A
