These statistics uot only show the relative increase and decrease of population in the various districts of, the county, according to colors and sexes, but unerringly point out the localities in which miasmatic and malarial diseases are most prevalent. Thev lso direct the attention of the sanitarian to the causes which generate such diseases and indicate the course to be pursued 'in their removal.

When individuals and public authorities are convinced of the existence of certain causes which give rise to preventable disease and continually operate to prevent the material development cud prosperity of the Country, they wiil not be slow in adopting the necessary means to remove the cause. And these statistics are indispensably necessary to the accomplishment of this great "work in the county and State, as well. There were 471 births reported during the year 316 white and 155 colored. Of this number there were 168 white males and 148 white females, against 87 colored males and 68 colored temales. Thus it will be seen the number of whites exceed" that of the colored 171.

Whole number of males, 255 whole number of females, 210. There were reported from all causes 2oS deaths-117 white slid 142 colored excess of deaths among tlje colored population being 25. The greatest number of deaths were due to consumption, there being in all 42 14 white and 28 colored 14 male -and 28 The next largest number was due to pneumonia, there being 34 it wnite and 18 colored were males and 15 females 34 years being the av erage-age at which the deaths from consumption and pneumonia occurred. There were 40 deaths under the age of one year, 14 due to typhoid fever and t6 to miasmatic and malarial causes. The death rate in the county is not tiere eiven, because of the imperfect returns but in the city the total diath rate per thousand was 18.7 whites 13.8, colored 28.6 death rate of the colored being in excess of the while 9 8 per thousand.

The greatest mortality in the city occurred in the month of March and the least in the month of April. Whil in the county the month of September gave tne greatest and. May the least. A glance At the above statistics will show our death rate to be compara tively, small much smaller than the average; and when it is remembered that a large proportion- of the death were due to-preventable causes, it be conies a matter of vital importance to every intelligent citizen as to when and ho the necessary steps are to lie taken which will prevent the development of disease) lessen the rate of mor tality, lengthen the scale of longevity ennance tne value oi our lands, in crease the material wealth of our neo. pie and make this beautiful country of ours, witn it many natural advantages, the fairest and bert under the As compared with other sections ours is naturally soexceedinelv healthv that it it not improbable that this patent fact has but rendered our people tne more inuitierent to observing ordi nary precautions lor nealth.
