to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject

are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover.

1878. 


Gevbral  Register  Offior, 
Charlemont  House,  Duhlin,  21i^  January^  1879. 
— ^Daring  the  year  1878  there  were  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration 
District,  9,513  births— 4,860  boys  and  4,653  girls— being  equal  to  1  in  33,  or  30 
per  1,000  of  the  population.*    The  average  annual  number  for  the  preceding  ten  years 
was  8,826,  or  28  per  1,000. 

Of  the  9,513  births  registered  in  1878,  7,794,  or  32  in  every  1.000  of  the  population,* 
oecurred  in  the  City,  and  1,719,  or  only  25  in  every  1,000  inhabitants  in  the  suburban 
districts  of  Rathinines,  Donnybrook,  Blackrock,  and  Kingstown. 

Of  the  9,513  births  in  the  entire  district,  2,526  were  registered  during  the  first  quarter 
of  the  year,  2,503  in  the  second,  2,369  in  the  thirds  and  2,115  in  the  fourth,  the  weekly 
average  being  183. 

In  London  the  number  of  births  registered  during  the  year  1878  was  129,182,  being 
equal  to  a  rate  of  36  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population  ;  in  Glasgow  the 
number  was  20,570,  also  equal  to  36  per  1,000 ;  and  in  Edinburgh  it  was  7,357, 
or  33  per  1,000  of  the  estimated  population. 


. — 9,269  deaths  were  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  during  the 
year  1878,  being  equal  to  1  in  34,  or  29'5  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,*  against  an 
average  death-rate  uf  26*2  per  1,000  for  the  previous  ten  years  ;  in  the  year  1877  the 
death-rate  was  28*0  per  1 ,000.  Of  the  persons  whose  deaths  were  registered  last  year 
4,616  were  males,  and  4,653  females,  the  former  number  being  equal  to  32'1  in  every 
1,000  of  the  male  population,*  and  the  latter  to  27*2  per  1,000  females.* 

Omitting  302  deaths,  which  being  those  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions 
from  localities  outside  the  Dublin  Registration  District  are  not  properly  chargeable  to 
the  District,  the  death-rate  for  last  year  is  28*5  per  1,000  of  the  population,  the  rate  for 
the  city  being  30*7  per  1,000  (291  on  the  North  side  and  31*9  on  the  South),  and 
for  the*  suburbs  20*8  per  1,000.  The  rates  for  the  several  Registrars*  districts  range 
from  i:V2  the  rate  for  Blackrock,  to  39*6  fur  No.  1  South  City  (Meath-street)  District. 

Of  the  9,269  deaths  in  the  entire  district,  2,460  were  registered  in  the  first  quarter 
of  the  }-ear,  2,380  in  the  second,  2,008  in  the  third,  and  2,421  in  the  fourth,  the  weekly 
averago  being  178. 

The  deaths  registered  in  Belfast  during  the  year  afford  a  rate  of  28  in  every  1,000 
of  the  ]>opulation  in  1871  (allowing  for  the  probable  increase  in  the  population  since 
that  ye»r  the  death-rate  yielded  by  the  deaths  registered  in  Belfast  is  23  per  1,000) ; 
in  Cork  the  rate  afforded  by  the  number  of  deaths  registered  was  27  per  1,000  of  the 
population  in  1871 ;  in  Limerick  it  waa  27,  in  Londonderry  20,  in  Waterford  32,  in 
Galwa}  28,  and  in  Sligo  20. 

The  leaths  registered  in  London  during  the  year  1878  amounted  to  83,695,  or  23*4  in 
evexy  1,000  of  the  inhabitants;  in  Glasgow  to  14,077,  equal  to  24*8  per  1,000;  and  in 
Edinburgh  to  4,895,  or  22*0  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population. 

FtMie  Imtitutions. — Of  the  9,269  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District 
last  year,  IfiW  occurred  in  the  various  hospitals,  prisons,  and  lunatic  asylums; 

*   According  to  the  Censos  of  1871. 


ir  Registration  of  Births  and  Deaths  in  Dublin  District, 

623  in  the  North  Dublin  Union  Workhouse,  and  801  in  the  South  Dublin  Union 
Workhouse ;  making  a  total  for  public  institutions  of  3^009,  or  32*5  per  cent,  of  the 
total  deaths  registered. 

BUeases. — Dublin  Registration  District — (See  Tables  I.  and  II.) — The  9,269  deaths 
registered  last  year  are  1,039,  or  12*6  per  cent,  in  excess  of  the  average  annual 
number  for  the  previous  ten  years.  An  analysis  of  the  tables  shows  that  four-fifths  of 
the  increase  occurred  in  deaths  from  the  two  groups  of  causes,  zymotic  diseases  and  af- 
fections of  the  respiratory  organs,  the  deaths  in  the  former  group  numbering  2,065 
against  an  average  of  1,708,  and  those  in  the  latter  amounting  to  2,046  against  an 
average  of  1,559.  The  deaths  tabulated  under  the  other  divisions  in  which  the  causes 
of  death  are  classified  do  not  piesent  any  material  difiference,  either  of  increase  or 
decline,  as  compared  with  the  average  mortality  in  the  ten  years,  1868-77. 

The  death-rate  represented  by  the  2,065  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  registered 
during  1878  is  6*6  per  1,000  of  the  population  ;  the  average  rate  for  the  preceding 
ten  years  was  5'4  per  1,000.  Omitting  51  deaths  of  hospital  patients  admitted  from 
without  the  district,  the  deaths  last  year  from  the  seven  principal  diseases  of  this  class 
amount  to  1,695,  or  5*4  per  1,000  inhabitants,  the  rate  for  the  city  being  6*1  (5*0  on 
the  North  side  and  7*0  on  the  South),  and  for  the  suburbs  2*7  per  1,000,  The  rates 
for  the  several  Registrars*  Districts  vary  from  1*9  per  1,000  in  Blackrock  to  10*0  per 
1,000  in  Number  1  South  City  (Meath-street)  District. 

Five  hundred  and  fifty  deaths,  or  more  than  26  per  cent,  of  the  mortality  from 
i3anotic  diseases,  resulted  from  small-pox,  which,  in  the  preceding  five  years,  or  from 
the  close  of  the  epidemic  of  1871-2,  caused  only  67  deaths. 

The  disesfie  was  most  fatal  in  the  South  City  Districts,  where  it  caused  400  deaths ; 
107  deaths  occurred  in  the  North  City  Districts;  14  are  chargeable  to  Rathmines 
District,  7  to  Donnyb rook,  and  1  to  Blackrock,  and  the  remaining  21  were  hospital 
cases  admitted  from  without  the  Dublin  Registration  area.  Fifty-seven  of  the  deaths 
were  registered  in  the  first  quarter  of  the  year,  212  in  the  second,  165  in  the  third, 
and  116  in  the  fourth.  These  figures  would  indicate  a  gradual  subsidence  of  the 
disease  since  the  summer  months,  but  it  is  to  be  regretted  that  the  returns  for  the 
closing  weeks  of  the  year  are  not  as  favourable  as  had  been  anticipated. 

Weekly  returns  of  the  cases  of  small-pox  treated  in  the  various  Dublin  hospitals 
have  been  received  during  the  last  eight  mouths.  From  these  it  appears  that  on 
Saturday,  27th  April,  231  patients  were  under  treatment ;  between  that  date  and 
Saturday,  28th  of  December,  1,835  new  cases  were  admitted,  364  patients  died,  and 
1,580  were  discEarged,  leaving  122  in  hospital  at  the  close  of  the  year.  It  will  be 
seen  that  of  1,944  cases  during  the  above  period,  the  respective  results  of  which  were 
determined,  1,580,  or  81*3  per  cent.,  made  recoveries,  and  364,  or  18*7  per  ctnt.,  ended 
fatally.  In  proportion  to  the  number  of  cases,  the  disease  was  more  fatal  in  the 
December  quarter  than  in  the  earlier  months.  The  highest  weekly  number  of  cases 
admitted  during  the  eight  months  was  106  in  the  week  ending  18th  May,  and  the 
lowest  11  in  that  ending  2nd  November;  48  cases  were  admitted  in  the  last  week  of 
the  year. 

During  the  year  333  deaths  from  the  several  forms  of  continued  fever  were  regis- 
tered, viz. :  98  from  typhus,  189  from  typhoid  or  enteric  fever,  and  46  from  simple 
continued  fever  ;  the  average  annual  number  of  deaths  from  fever  in  the  ten  years 
1868-77,  was  310. 

Whooping-cough  caused  281  deaths,  or  double  the  average  number ;  scarlet  fever, 
on  the  other  hand,  caused  only  132  (67  of  these  were  in  the  last  quarter),  against  an 
average  of  337  ;  305  deaths  were  ascribed  to  diarrhoea,  being  54  over  the  average  ; 
116  deaths,  75  of  which  were  registered  in  the  first  quarter,  resulted  from  measles  and  its 
complications,  which  caused  461  deaths  in  the  year  1877  ;  and  among  the  remaining 
deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  are  100  from  croup,  29  from  diphtheria^  20  from 
dysentery,  15  from  erysipelas,  &c. 

The  deaths  from  diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs,  which,  as  stated  above,  amount 
to  2,046,  consist  of  1,479  from  bronchitis,.  347  from  poeumonia  or  inflammation  of  the 
lungs,  17  from  pleurisy,  7  each  from  laryngitis  and  asthma,  and  189  which  were 


Yearly  Sumnaty.  r 

rslnnied  aa  from  "  lung  diaease,"  kc  The  Jeaths  from  tbew  csnsea  form  32  per  cent, 
of  the  total  mortality,  and  are  eqnivaleot  to  6'5  per  1,000  of  the  popolation,  against 
an  avenbge  rate  of  496  per  1,000  for  the  preceding  ten  years.  Deatlia  ^m  diseasea  - 
of  the  respiratory  organi  were  much  more  numerous  in  the  latter  lialf  of  that  decade 
th&n  in  the  earlier yeare  ;  thus  the  average  yearly  number  for  the  &ve  years,  1868- 
72,  W8«  only  1,422,  while  the  averate  for  the  Bve  years  1873-77  amounted  to  1,097  ; 
the  numher  in  1877  was  1,689.  The  deaths  last  year  from  these  caaaea  were  regi»- 
tered  as  fullows: — 660  in  the  first  quarter,  470  iu  tlie  aecond,  230  in  the  third,  and 
686  in  the  fourth. 

Deaths  of  children  from  coovuleioua,  though  somewhat  over  the  average,  are  a  few 
lest  than  in  1877  :  they  numb«-  618,  being  equal  to  226  per  cent,  of  all  the  deaths 
ul  children  under  five  years  of  age. 

Heart  disease  cauaea  396  deaths,  pericarditis  orlnflammation  of  the  heart's  covering 
13,  and  aneurism  18. 

One  hundred  and  eighty-nine  deaths  were  attributed  to  paralysis,  134  to  apoplexy, 
TS  to  cephalitis  or  inflammotion  of  the  brain  and  its  membranes,  30  to  epilepsy,  8  to 
iiUBDity,  2  to  chorea  or  St.  Vitas's  dance,  104  to  brain  diseaae,  unspecified  ;  9  to  hepa-

lented  by  the  defttbe  from  the  aeTen  principal  zymotic  diBeaaes,  registered  during  tbe

ud  filtgo,  20  per  1,000. 

The  high  zymoiic  rate  in  Galway  is  owing  principally  to  tbe  prevalence  of  small-

daring  tbe  year,  and  fever  caused  25.  In  Waterford,  measles  during  tbe  first  quarter 
and  whooping-cough  iu  the  first  and  second  quarters,  led  to  tbe  comparatively  high 
rate  ;  71  deaths  from  the  former  disease  and  52  from  the  latter  were  recorded  during 
the  year,  but  no  death  from  small-pox  wus  retitnied. 

In  Beliast,  where  tbe  deaths  from  all  causes  numbered  S,152,  there  were  776  from 
the  seven  zymotic  diseases,  tIz.  : — 36  from  small-pox,  204  from  seorlatiDa  (100  of  which 
were  recorded  in  the  last  quarter),'l99  from  fever,  209  from  diarrhtea,  69  from 
whooping-cough,  52  from  measles,  and  7  from  diphtheria.  No  deaths  from  small-pox 
were  registered  in  the  lost  qoarter. 

There  were  no  deaths  from  small-pox  registered  in  Cork  during  the  year;  tbe 
deaths  from  the  six  other  zymotic  diseases  named  above  are  :  73  from  diarrhfsa,  61 
from  measles  (49  of  which  were  in  the  March  quarter),  59  from  whooping-cough,  58 
from  fever,  and  only  1  each  from  scarlatina  and  diphtheria;  tbe  number  of  deaths  &om 
all  causes  registered  was  2,4Q4. 

Four  deaths  from  small-pax  were  reg^tered  in  Limerick,  and  1  each  in  London-

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore) 
remarks: — **The  weather  was  exceedingly  damp  and  dull  except  on  Monday,  which  was  a 
bright  cool  day — a  rather  deep  atmospherical  depression,  which  travelled  eastwards  across 
En;zland  during  Sunday  ni^ht,  having  temporarily  cleared  the  air.     From  Monday  »li(;ht 

fradientsfor  S.  W.  to  W.  wmds  held  over  Western  Europe,  where  the  weather  became  mild, 
amp,  and  overcast.  On  Thursday,  a  brilliant  sunrise  was  followed  by  a  very  wet  day— the  rain- 
fall at  Kingstown  bein^  -QiO  inch,  although  only  '318  inch  fell  at  Fitzwilliam -square,  Dublin. 
From  Wednesday  evenmg  temperature  was  high  and  remarkably  uniform  (at  from  47^  to  51°); 
and  from  Thursday  evening  the  atmosphere  was  nearly  saturated  with  moisture.  The  relative 
humidity  reached  99  per  cent.,  at  9  a.m.  of  Fridav.  Fogs,  with  drizzling  rain,  prevailed  on 
Friday  and  Saturday.  The  barometer  was  generally  above  the  average  height.  Its  readings 
yaried  from  29*480  inches  at  4  p.m.  of  Sunday  to  30*355  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Wednesday. 
During  Sunday  nij^ht  the  barometer  rose  with  considerable  rapidity,  so  that  it  stood  seven- 
tenths  of  an  inch  higher  at  9  a.m.  of  Monday  than  it  did  at  4  p.m.  of  Sunday.  Rain  Idl  on  5 
days  to  the  amount  of  '846  inch— the  maximal  tall  in  24  hours  being  '361  inch  on  Sunday.** 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes :  *'  The  week  just  closed  has  been  of  a  mild  character,  but 
dull  and  wet  throughout  wirh  the  exception  of  Monday  which  was  fine  and  bright.  There  was 
a  dense  fog  on  Thursday  night  which  lasted  till  noon  on  the  following  day.  Winds  were 
light  and  principally  from  the  S.  and  S.W.  The  b  irometer  gradually  ro>e  from  29*56  inches 
on  Sunday  to  30*2  inches  on  Wednesday  evening  when  a  slight  fall  took  place.  A  recovery 
set  in  next  day  and  the  glass  was  high  for  remainder  of  the  week.  Rain  full  to  the  amount 
of -587  inch." 

The  Observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks :  *'  On  Monday  morning  the  barometer 
was  rather  low  (29*4)  but  it  rose  quickly  during  the  next  twenty -four  hours  to  3  >*(»5,  and 
since  then  it  remained  almost  the  whole  week  at  the  same  height,  only  oscillating  a  little  up 
and  down.  The  weather  has  been  unusudiy  mild,  (only  on  Tuesday  night  the  tempeiature 
fell  to  3*2*5^),  and  at  the  same  time  moist  with  mist  and  drizzling  rain  everv  day.  The 
ffroatest  amount  of  rain  in  twenty-four  hours,  0*505  in.,  fell  on  Thursday.  The  wind  was 
8.W.  till  Tuesday  afternoon,  then  S.E.  or  S.S.E.  up  till  Friday  when  it  again  turned  to  S.W." 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  OiKce,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  heijrht  of  the 
barometer  durin;;  the  week  was  30*073  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*345 )  was  on  Wednesday 
at  9. 30,  A.M.,  wind  W.,  and  the  lowest  (29*5 i5)  on  Sundiiy,  at  3.30,  p.m.,  air  calm. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  44*6°  (being  3*7 **  over  the  average  for  the  cor- 
responding week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  highest  on  Saturday, 
when  the  thermometer  registered  51*7^,  and  was  lowest  on  Sunday,  the  mercury  having  fallen 
to  3i*0o.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  44*8^ ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bulb  437^. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  '912;  complete  seturatioii  being  repreaentod  by  1*0.

MBTBOBOXiOOT. 

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore] 
remarks : — 

**  During  this  period  atmospherical  pressure  has  been  unusually  high,  and  the  weather  in  the  Britisli 
Isles,  and  especially  in  Ireland,  singularly  mild  for  the  time  of  year.  Throughout  the  week  an  anticyclone 
existed  to  the  S.  of  the  United  Kingdom,  Ihe  centre  of  highest  pressure  being  at  first  S.E.,  afterwards 
S.W.,  and  nltimately  again  S.E.,  of  Dublin.  At  7  p.m.  of  Sunday  tlie  barometer  touched  30-85  inches 
at  Biarritz.  Meanwhile  a  series  of  bourrasques,  or  areas  of  low  pressure,  were  travelling  eastwards  ovei 
Northern  Europe.  Consequently,  steep  gradients  for  westerly  winds  were  formed  in  Ireland,  where  fresh 
to  strong  W.S.W.  or  W.  breezes  prevailed  until  Thursday— the  weather  being  dull  and  very  mild  both 
by  night  and  day.  In  France,  however,  it  was  extremely  cold  in  the  earlier  part  of  the  week,  so  that 
even  at  Lyons  the  thermometer  stood  at  19^  Fahrenheit  at  8  a.m.  on  Sunday.  At  the  close  of  the  week 
pressure  was  giving  way  steadily  in  Ireland,  towards  which  country  a  disturbance  seemed  to  be  advancing 
from  the  Atlantic.  A  very  perfect  lunar  halo  was  seen  at  9  30  p.m.  of  Sunday.  A  lunar  corona  on 
Thursday  evening  and  a  partial  solar  halo  on  Friday  afternoon  were  also  observed.  The  barometer  ranged 
from  30*521  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Friday  to  30*098  inches  at  II  p.m.  of  Saturday.  Kain  fell  on  four  days, 
to  the  amount  of  *105  inch ;  the  maximal  fall  in  twenty-four  hours  was  *037  inch  on  Wednesday/* 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

**  Dull  and  calm  weather  prevailed  during  the  past  week  with  a  high  temperature.  The  baromelei 
stood  considerably  above  30  inches  until  Saturday,  when,  owing  to  the  wind  freshening  from  the  south,  » 
fall  of  several  tenths  took  place.    Monday  and  Saturday  were  wet.    Total  rainfall  for  the  week  0*526  in.' 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks: — 

"The  barometer  was  above  30  inches  the  whole  week  up  till  Saturday  afternoon  when  it  had 
commenced  falling  fast,  while  the  weather  changed  from  dry  (though  dull  most  of  the  week)  to  wet. 
Westerly  winds  prevailed  during  the  whole  week.  Maximum  pressure  30*41  on  Thursday  at  9  p.m., 
temperature  very  mild." 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Sunrcy  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  the 
barometer  during  the  week  was  30*363  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30'513)  was  on  Friday 
at  9.30,  A.M.,  wind  W.S.W.,  and  the  lowest  (d0'108)  on  Saturday,  at  9.30,  p.m.,  wind  S.W. 

The  mean  temperature  foi  the  week  was  46*5^  (being  4*3"^  over  the  average  for  the  cor- 
responding week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  tcniperature  was  highest  on  Tuesday, 
when  the  thermometer  registered  53 '0^,  and  was  lowest  on  'umrsday,  the  mercury  having  fallen 
to  37-3«>.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  46-9*' ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bulb  45-lo. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  -8.58;  complete  saturation  being  represented  by  1*0. 
The  rainfidl  diuring  the  week  measured  '095  in.

the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outnde  the  district,  the  rate  was  28*6  per  1 ,000.  In  Lonaon  the  death-rate  was 
27*2 in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population;  in  Glasgow  26*6,  and  in  Edinburgh  24*1. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to

^^Yery  unsettled  weather  with  extreme  contrasts  of  temperature  prevailed  during  this  period.      At 
beginning  of   the  week   an   equatorial   air-current  was  felt  throughout   the   British  Islands,   and 
weather  was  showery,  mild,  and  breezy.     On  Sunday  afternoon  the  barometer  fell  quickly,  as  a  cycle 
system  advanced  towards  Scotland  and  Norway  from  the  Atlantic  ;  and  in  the  evening  the  wind  rose 
a  fresh  or  strong  gale  from  S.W.     During  this  nighty  the  thermometer  rose  to  55*6°.     Monday  was  v 
warm  (max.  temp.=s56*7^),  and  stormy  weather  with  thick  drizzling  rain  continued.     On    Tues( 
night  a  very  deep  depression  approached  our  northern  coasts  from  the  W.     As  it  passed  away,  temperat 
decreased  and  sleet  and  snOw  fell  in  Dublin  with  xery  wild  and  wintr^'  weather.     Violent  N.W.  wii 
sMcept  over  the  country  during  Thursday  and  B>iday.     On  the  morning  of  the  latter  day,  a  fall  of  1 
and  snow  again  occurred  in  Dublin ;  after  which  (at  10  a.m.)  the  sky  cleared,  and  a  keen  frosit  set 
which  lasted  for  a  few  hours.     The  lowest  temperature  of  the  week  was  recorded  about  noon  on  this  d 
Rainy  weather  returned  on  Saturday  afternoon.     The  barometer  varied  from  30*171  inches,  at  9  a.m. 
Sunday,  to  29*512  inches,  about  3  p.m.  of  Thursday.     Rain  fell  on  every  day,  the  total  amount  registc

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

*'  We  experienced  very  changeable  weather  during  the  past  week.    The  tempertiture  was  high  for

minimum  having  touched  27*1^  on  Friday  night     There  were  snow  showers  on  Wednesday  and  Frid 
the  week  closing  with  rain.*' 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : — 

**  Dull  and  rainy  weather  prevailed  during  the  whole  week.     Heavy  squalls  passed  this  place  betw 
Tuesday  afternoon  and  Thursday  morning.      The   barometer  was  gradually  falling  on   Monday  « 
Tue^ay  (29*69  on  Tuesday  at  9  p.m.),  remained  then  unsteady  (about  29*5)  until  Friday,  when  it  r 
quickly  to  29*97  on  Saturday,  at  9  a.m.     Since  then  it  is  fUling  gradually  again.     Wind  westerly 
whole  week." 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  1 
barometer  daring  the  week  was  29*820  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*185)  was  on  Sun(] 
at  9.30,  A.M.,  wind  S.W.,  and  the  lowest  ^29*509)  on  Thursday,  at  9.30,  a.m.,  wind  W. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  40*6^  (being  0*4  °  under  the  average  for  the  a 
responding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  hi^^best  on  Mond; 
when  the  thermometer  registered  56 'S^',  and  was  lowest  on  Thui*sday,  the  mercury  having  fidl 
to  29*6<>.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  41*2'' ;  and  of  the  Wet  finlb  9l9'i 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  '859;  complete  saturation  being  represented  b)r  1 
The  nitt/kll  during  the  week  measured  '563  in.

The  obsenrer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore 
remarks: — 

"  At  the  beginning  of  the  week  an  area  of  low  atmospherical  pressure  was  spreading  over  the  conntf] 
from  the  Atlantic  It  brought  with  it  mild,  damp  weather  on  Sunday ;  but  after  9  p.m.  of  that  day  th< 
barometer  began  to  rise,  the  wind  veered  to  W.,  the  sky  cleared,  and  the  temperature  fell  quickly.  A 
steady  and  rather  brisk  increase  of  pressure  took  place  on  Monday,  which  was  a  bright  and  bracing  day.  Oi 
Tuesday  the  rise  of  the  barometer  was  checked  by  the  approach  of  a  shallow  depression  towards  the  S.  W 
of  Ireland.  It  caused  an  increase  of  cloud  and  a  little  rain  in  Dublin  on  the  morning  of  Wednesday.  Ai 
anti-cyclone  now  began  to  develop  over  the  United  Kingdom.  The  centre  of  this  system  was  near  Dnblij 
on  Thursday  and  Friday.  As  the  sky  was  free  from  cloud  and  the  air  calm,  sharp  frosts  occurred — th 
thermometer  falling  to  28*0°  on  Thursday  morning,  and  to  27*6°  on  Friday  morning.  The  corresponding 
lowest  readings  on  the  grass  were  23*3^  and  22*4^  respectively.  Smoke-fogs  hung  over  the  city  during 
this  period.  At  10*30  p.m.  of  Thursday,  the  barometer  attained  the  exceptional  height  of  30*707  inche 
in  Dublin.  After  this,  a  gradual  decrease  of  pressure  set  in,  lasting  to  the  close  of  the  week.  On  Saturday 
morning  the  sky  became  overcast  and  the  frost  disappeared.  The  lowest  reading  of  the  barometer  wa 
29*716  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Sunday.  Rain  fell  on  two  days  to  the  amount  of  *086  inch,  the  maximal  fall  u 
24  hours  being  *076  inch  on  Sunday.  The  mean  temi)erature  was  lower  than  in  any  other  week  this  winter. 

The  obserrer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

"The  week  opened  with  rain  which  fell  the  whole  of  Sunday,  and  was  followed  next  day  by  fin 
weather  with  occasional  snow  showers.  Tuesday,  Wednesday,  Thursday,  and  Friday  were  frosty  an( 
foggy,  Saturday  was  overcast. 

**  Temperature  varied  from  47*7°  on  Sunday  to  30*4^  on  Saturday  morning,  when  a  thaw  set  in.  Th 
barometer  gradually  rose  during  the  week  till  Friday  afternoon  when  it  read  30*7  inches,  after  which  i 
slight  fall  took  place.  Rain  and  snow  (melted)  was  measured  to  the  amount  of  *304  inches.  Winds  wer 
yery  light  from  the  S.S.W.  and  W." 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : — 

*' Since  Tuesday  morning  the  barometer  has  been  above  30^  (max.  30*53°  on  Thursday  at  9  p.m.] 
while  the  weather  was  cold  and  foggy  (especially  on  Thurs^iay  and  Friday  nights).  No  wind.  Hoar  froi 
on  Thursday  and  Friday ;  Saturday  was  dull  without  frost." 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  th* 
barometer  during  the  week  was  30*288  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*685)  was  on  Thursday 
at  9.80,  P.M.,  air  calm,  and  the  lowest  (29*746)  on  Sunday,  at  9.30,  p.m.,  wind  S.W. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  37'8^  (being  5*2°  under  the  average  for  the  cor 
responding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  toinpcrature  was  highest  on  Sunday 
when  the  thermometer  rcgistt^rod  52*6<^,  and  was  lowest  on  Thursday,  the  mcrcun*  having  fallen 
to  34-00.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  ST'S*^ ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bulb  36-4o. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  *859;  complete  saturation  being  represented  by  1*0. 
!rhe  rainfall  daring  the  week  measured  *  142  in.

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore) 
remarks: — 

*^  At  the  beginning  of  the  week  an  area  of  low  atmospherical  pressure  was  spreading  over  the  countiy 
from  the  Atlantic.  It  brought  with  it  mild,  damp  weather  on  Sunday ;  but  after  9  p.m.  of  that  day  the 
barometer  began  to  rise,  the  wind  veered  to  W.,  the  sky  cleared,  and  the  temperature  fell  quickly.  A 
steady  and  rather  brisk  increase  of  pressure  took  pUce  on  Monday,  which  was  a  bright  and  bracing  day.  On 
Tuesday  the  rise  of  the  barometer  was  checked  by  the  approach  of  a  shallow  depression  towards  the  S.  W. 
of  Ireland.  It  cansed  an  increase  of  cloud  and  a  little  rain  in  Dublin  on  the  morning  of  Wednesday.  An 
anti-cyclone  now  began  to  develop  over  the  United  Kingdom.  The  centre  of  this  system  was  near  Dnblui 
on  Thursday  and  Friday.  As  the  sky  was  free  from  cloud  and  the  air  calm,  sharp  frosts  occurred — the 
thermometer  falling  to  28*0°  on  Thursday  morning,  and  to  27'(>°  on  Friday  morning.  The  corresponding 
lowest  readings  on  the  grass  were  23*3^  and  22*4^  respectively.  Smoke- fogs  hung  over  the  city  during 
this  period.  At  10*30  p.m.  of  Thursday,  the  barometer  attained  the  exceptional  height  of  30*707  inches 
in  Dublin.  After  this,  a  gradual  decrease  of  pressure  set  in,  lasting  to  the  close  of  the  week.  On  Saturday 
morning  the  sky  became  overcast  and  the  frost  disappeared.  The  lowest  reading  of  the  barometer  was 
29*716  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Sunday.  Rain  fell  on  two  days  to  the  amount  of  *086  inch,  the  maximal  fall  in 
24  hours  being  *076  inch  on  Sunday.   The  mean  tem^ierature  was  lower  than  in  any  other  week  this  winter." 

The  obserrer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

'*The  week  opened  with  rain  which  fell  the  whole  of  Sunday,  and  was  followed  next  day  by  fine 
weather  with  occasional  snow  showers.  Tuesday,  Wednesday,  Thursday,  and  Friday  were  frosty  and 
foggy,  Saturday  was  overcast. 

*'  Temperature  varied  from  47*7°  on  Sunday  to  30*4^  on  Saturday  morning,  when  a  thaw  set  in.  The 
barometer  gradually  rose  during  the  week  till  Friday  afternoon  when  it  read  30*7  inches,  after  which  a 
slight  fall  took  place.  Rain  and  snow  (melted)  was  measured  to  the  amount  of  *304  inches.  Winds  were 
very  light  from  the  aS.W.and  W." 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Piirsonstown)  remarks : — 

**  Since  Tuesday  morning  the  barometer  has  been  above  30^  (max.  30*53°  on  Thursday  at  9  p.m.), 
while  the  weather  was  cold  and  foggy  (especially  on  Thursday  and  Friday  nights).  No  wind.  Hoar  frost 
on  Thursday  and  Friday ;  Saturday  was  dull  without  frost. ^* 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phcenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  the 
barometer  during  the  week  was  30*288  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*685)  was  on  Thursday 
at  9.80,  P.M.,  air  calm,  and  the  lowest  (29*745)  on  Sunday,  at  9.30,  p.m.,  wind  S.W. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  37*8^  (being  5*2°  under  the  average  for  the  cor- 
responding week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  1'he  teiupcrature  was  highest  on  Sunday, 
when  the  thermometer  registered  52*6<^,  and  was  lowest  on  Thursday,  the  mercun*  having  fallen 
to  34-00.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  37*8" ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bulb  36-4o. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  '859;  complete  saturation  being  represented  by  1*0. 
The  rainfall  during  the  week  measured  *142  in.

MSTSOROKOGT. 

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore) 
remarks : — 

**  Serious  barometrical  disturbances,  with  heav}'  gales,  passed  over  the  extreme  north  of  Europe  during 
this  week ;  but  the  atmosphere  in  England  and  Ireland  was  in  a  singularly  quiet  condition  until  Saturday, 
when  a  depression  came  in  from  the  Atlantic.  Previously  the  anti-cyclone,  which  began  to  form  oVer  the 
United  Kingdom  on  January  30,  remained  nearly  stationary',  with  central  readings  of  30*50  inches  or 
upwards.  On  Sunday  its  centre  lay  to  the  W.  of  Ireland,  but  afterwards  it  became  established  o^'^r  the 
midland  and  S.E.  counties  of  England.  Calms,  or  light  variable  airs  and  very  dull,  chilly,  and  foggy 
weather  accompanied  tlie  high  barometer ;  but  on  Wednesday  evening  the  sky  cleared  in  Dublin,  and 
temperature  fell  quickly.  On  Thursday  a  brilliant  sun  and  light  W.S.W.  wind  sent  the  thermometer 
up  to  50  degrees,  but  the  air  again  became  calm  at  night  and  temperature  fell  so  quickly  that  a  sharp 
frost  occurred  on  Friday  morning.  The  shade  thermometer  marked  31*4  degrees,  and  the  grass  minimum 
25*6  degrees.  A  thick  smoke-fog  hung  over  Dublin  during  the  forenoon,  but  a  light  S.S.E.  breeze  sprang 
up  in  the  afternoon,  and  the  fog  cleared  away.  Until  Friday  evening  the  barometer  was  constantly  above 
30*60  inches ;  a  brisk  decrease  of  pressure  then  set  iu,  so  that  the  mercury  sank  to  30*040  inches  by  9  p.m. 
of  Saturday.  The  highest  reading  of  the  barometer  was  30*620  inches  at  10.30  p.m.  of  Thursday.  Rain 
commenced  to  fall  at  5.30  p.m.  of  Saturday,  and  continued  for  several  hours.  The  amount  registered  was 
*]40  of  an  inch.     This  was  the  first  rain  which  had  fallen  in  Dublin  since  January  29." 

The  observer  at  Amiagh  writes  :^- 

"  Although  the  barometer  continued  above  30  inches  during  the  past  weeK  the  weather  was  very  dull 
and  gloomy,  with  the  exception  of  Thursday  which  was  bright  and  mild. 
*•  Friday  morning  was  frosty. 

"  Temperature  ranged  from  50*1  °  on  Thursday,  to  34*0^  on  Friday. 
"Velocity  of  wind  very  low.     General  direction,  S.  and  S.W. 
»'  No  rain  fell  till  Saturday  night.     Total,  0*093  inch." 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : — 

"  The  past  week  was  remarkable  for  the  steady  character  of  the  weather  and  the  high  stand  of  the 
barometer.  The  latter  remained  almost  without  any  oscillations  at  30*4,  until  Friday  about  noon, 
when  it  began  to  fall  slowly,  but  regidarly.  With  the  exception  of  ThurMay  night,  which  was  clear  and 
starlight,  the  sky  was  almost  constantly  overcast  and  dull,  though  not  a  drop  of  rain  had  fallen  up  to 
Saturday  evening.  Wind  very  slight  from  S.  W.,  S.,  or  S.  E.  Temperature  mild ;  slight  hoar  frost  (29*4°) 
on  Thursday  night*' 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  the 
barometer  during  the  week  was  30*470  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*590)  was  on  Thursday 
at  9.30,  P.M.,  wind  W.S.W.,  and  the  lowest  (30*043)  on  Saturday,  at  9.30,  p.m.,  air  calm. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  40*7®  (being  I  '0°  under  the  average  for  the  cor- 
responding week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  highest  on  Thursday, 
when  theUiermometer  registered  54*7^iand  was  lowest  on  the  same  day,  the  mercury  having  fallen

Vol.  XV,]  Week  bhdiko  Saturday,  February  23,  1878.  [No.  8. 


Genercd  Register  Office,  Charlemont  Howe^ 
Dublin^  25th  FebrtAary,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  23rd 
Febnuuy,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortahty  of  33*1  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
lo^ties  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  32*7  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
25'6iae?ery  1,000  of  the  estimated  population;  in  Glasgow  21*6,  and  in  Edinburgh  26*0. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
184—96  boys  and  88  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  200—96  males  and  104  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years  were — births,  1 79,  and  deaths,  1 93. 

The  numfier  of  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  registered  during  the  week  is  42 ;  average 
number  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  34.  Among  the  deaths  from  these 
diseases  are  2  from  small-pox — those  of  a  boy  aged  1 1  years,  and  a  man  aged  43  years,  both 
residents  of  No.  2  South  City  District,  but  the  boy  died  in  Cork-street  Hospital :  there  is  no 
reference  to  vaccination  in  either  return ;  5  from  fever  (2  typhus  and  3  tvphoid  or  enteric 
fever),  16  from  whooping-cough,  being  10  over  the  number  in  the  preceding  week;  8  from 
measles,  5  from  diarruoea,  2  from  croup,  1  from  scarlet  fever,  &c.  1  hirty-two  of  the  deaths 
from  zymotic  diseases  were  amongst  children  under  5  years  of  age. 

Twelve  children  died  from  convulsions.. 

Thirty-six  deaths  resulted  from  bronchitis,  8  from  pneumonia  or  inflammation  of  the  lungs, 
and  5  from  lung  disease  unspecified.  These  49  deaths  are  19  under  the  mortality  from  diseases 
of  the  respiratory  organs  registered  in  the  preceding  week,  but  4  over  the  average  number

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  ^Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore) 
remarks; — 

'^Very  mild  and  open  weather  characterized  the  week.  On  Sunday  a  rather  serious  atmospherical 
depression  skirted  the  west  coasts  of  Ireland  and  Scotland  in  its  passage  towards  N.N.E.  In  Dublin  the 
sky  cleared  in  the  f(H'enoon  and  a  warm  sun  shune  out,  making  the  early  afternoon  quite  like  Summer. 
The  thermometer  rose  to  69*4  degrees.  After  2  p.m.  th*  wind  freshened  from  S.S.W.,  and  rain  fell  heavily 
in  the  evening.  Monday  was  bright  and  bracing,  but  Tuesday  brought  a  return  of  cloudy,  unsettled 
weather,  which  accompanied  another  bourrasque  north-eastwards.  A  rapid  rise  of  the  barometer  now  set 
in,  as  an  anticyclone  became  developed  over  France  and  the  southern  part  of  the  British  Isles.  The  weather 
remained  settled,  although  overcast  and  very  dull,  in  Ireland  and  England  until  the  end  of  the  week ;  but 
on  Friday  a  deep  depression,  with  the  barometer  below  29  inches,  passed  over  Sweden  and  Lapland  in  a 
south-easterly  direction.  In  Dublin  the  barometer  was  observed  to  vary  from  29*747  inches  at  6  p.m.  of 
Sunday  to  30*673  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Thursday.  Rain  fell  on  4  days'  to  the  amount  of  *245  inch,  the 
maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  *204  inch  on  Sunday.  On  one  night  only  did  the  shade  thermometer  fall 
below  40  degrees.** 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

"  Sunday,  Monday,  and  Tuesday  were  gloomy  and  squally,  and  rain  fell  on  the  evenings  ol  Snndaj, 
Tuesday,  and  Saturday.  Wednesday  was  overcast  and  shower}' ;  the  remainder  of  the  week  being  almost 
entirely  cloudy. 

"The  thermometer  stood  highest  on  Sunday  (54°),  and  lowest  on  Tuesday  (88*6®).  The  baromater  rote 
from  29*81  inches  on  Sunday  evenmg  to  30*68  inches  on  Thursday  night,  after  which  it  continued  to  fall 
till  4  P.M.  on  Saturday,  but  is  again  slowly  rising. 

**  General  direction  of  the  wind,  8.,  S. W.,  and  W.S.W.     ToUl  rainfall  for  week,  0*222  inch." 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : 

"  Weather  mild  and  dry,  though  very  cloudy  since  Wednesday.  Barometer  most  of  the  week  very  high 
(80*6  on  Thursday).     Winds  south-westerly." 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  the 
barometer  during  the  week  was  80*257  inches.  The  highest  reading  (80-666)  was  onTHuriday 
at  9.80,  P.M.,  wind  S.W.,  and  the  lowest  (29*764)  on  Sunday,  at  3.8U,  p.m.,  wind  S.W. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  47-6"=^  (being  4*9°  over  Uie  average  for  the  cor- 
responding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  highest  on  Sundaj, 
when  the  thermometer  registered  61  '8^^  and  was  lowest  on  Monday,  the  mercory  having  fallen 
to  88-80.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  47*6;  and  of  the  Wet  Bulb  44iy>. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  -808 ;  complete  saturation  being  represented  by  l-O. 
The  nunfall  daring  the  week  measured  -258  in.

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  fur  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore) 
remarks : — 

"  At  the  beginning  of  the  week  the  luirometer  stood  high  o£F  the  S.  aud  S.W.  of  Ireland,  and  moderate 
gradients  for  westerly  winds  existed.  The  weather  was  mild  and  cloudy  on  Sunday  and  Monday.  On 
Tuesday  atmospherical  conditions  underwent  a  considerable  change.  The  barometer  fell  generally ;  but, 
as  the  fall  was  most  brisk  to  the  westward,  steep  gradients  for  S.W.  winds  became  established,  and  a  period 
of  squally,  showery,  although  warm,  weather  set  in.  A  succession  of  bonrrasques,  or  areas  of  barometrical 
depressions,  now  travelled  rapidly  north-eastwards  along  the  W.  coasts  of  Ireland  and  Scotland.  On 
Friday  night,  however,  a  rapid  increase  of  pressure  took  place,  the  wind  veered  slightly  and  moderated,  so 
that  Saturday  proved  singularly  fine.  Temperature  was  throughout  far  above  the  average;  consequently, 
trees  and  shrubs  were  budding  as  though  it  was  April.  The  barometer  was  observed  to  range  between 
30*275  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Sunday  and  29*392  inches  at  7.30  a.m.  of  Friday.  From  this  latter  low  reading 
it  rose  to  30*209  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Saturday.  Rain  was  registered  on  four  days,  the  maximal  fall  in  24 
hours  being  '124  inch  on  Friday,  and  the  total  amount  bein^  *215  inch.'* 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

'*  The  weather  during  this  period  was  exceedingly  mild,  but  very  wet  Bain  fell  on  every  day  with  the 
exception  of  Saturday.  The  thermometer  ranged  from  55*1^  on  Wednesday  afternoon  to  38*8®  on 
Monday  mornmg.  The  barometer  stood  highest  on  Sunday  (30*28  inches),  lowest  on  Friday  (29*40 
inches).  Qeneral  durection  of  the  wmd,  S.W.  Rain  was  measured  to  the  amount  of  1*042  inches,  the 
greatest  portion  ef  which  fell  on  Friday." 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : — 

**  The  barometer  fell  gradually  from  Sunday  morning,  when  it  stood  at  3014,  till  Wednesday ;  it  tim 
remained  almost  stationary  at  29*4  up  to  Thursday  night,  when  it  fell  to  29*28,  while  heavy  rain  was 
falling.  From  IViday  afternoon  it  has  been  rising  fast  and  is  now  (Saturday,  9  p.ic.)  at  30*1.  Weather 
mild  and  showery  with  wind  from  S.W.'* 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  the 
barometer  daring  the  week  was  39*877  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*260)  was  on  Sunday 
at  9.30,  A.M.,  wind  S.A\^.  and  the  lowest  (29*404)  on  Friday,  at  3.30,  p.m.,  wind  W.S.W. 

The  mean  temperature  foi  the  week  was  50*0^  (j^^S  ^'^^  ^^^^  ^^®  average  for  the  cor- 
responding week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  texnperature  was  hig^ot  on  Friday, 
when  the  thermometer  registered  58*8^,  and  was  lowest  on  Sunday,  the  mercurv  haying  fallen 
to  40*6^  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  50*3 ;  and  of  the  Wet  fitdb  ABiP. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  *645;  complete  saturation  being  represented  by  1*0. 
The  rainfiUl  during  the  week  measured  *4l  1  in.

high  over  France  and  the  Bay  of  Biscay,  while  a  series  of  atmospherical  depressions  passed,  at  first  fron 
W.  to  £.,  and  afterwards  from  N.W.  to  S.E.,  across  Scandinavia  and  the  northern  parts  of  the  Britisl 
Islands.  Owing  to  the  great  disparity  in  the  height  of  the  barometer  in  the  N.  and  in  the  S.  very  stroni 
westerly  to  north-westerly  gales  swept  over  the  N.W.  of  Europe.  On  Wednesday  the  storm  was  espe-

the  close  of  the  week,  with  a  dr^*  air  at  times.  On  Saturday  a  new  disturbance  approached  Irelattd 
from  the  Atlantic,  and  the  wind  backed  to  S.  with  showers.  In  Dublin  the  barometer  was  seen  fo 
vary  from  30*421  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Tuesday  to  29*911  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Saturday.  Rain  fell  on 
six  days  to  the  amount  of  '291  inch,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  *145  inch  on  Monday.  Co 
Saturday  morning  a  sharp  frost  prevailed  in  Scotland  and  the  north  of  England." 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

^'  Gloomy  and  stormy  weather  prevailed  during  this  period,  with  rain  on  Monday,  Tuesday,  and 
Saturday.  The  thermometer  ranged  from  52*5°  on  Sunday  afternoon  to  39*2°  on  Tuesday  morning- 
The  barometer  stood  liighest  (30*33  inches)  on  Tuesday,  lowest  (20*95  inches)  on  Wednesday.  Direction

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : — 

"The  barometer  remained  above  30  inches  up  to  Saturday  morning.  The  weather  was  dull  and 
showery  during  the  whole  week.     Wind  S.W.  to  W. ;  very  strong  on  Tuesday  and  Wednesday."

at  9.30,  A.M.,  wind  S.W.,  and  the  lowest  (29*918)  on  Saturday,  at  9.:3(»,  p.m.,  wind  S.W.

responding  week  oi*  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  highest  on  Thursdi/t 
when  the  thermometer  registered  5S'5^^  and  was  lowest  on  Monday,  the  mercury  having  falleu

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moon 
remarks: — 

'*  An  anticyclone,  or  system  of  high  barometer,  lay  over  Great  Britain  and  Ireland  from  Tuesda 
During  this  period  the  weather  was  much  colder  and  more  settled,  with  a  very  gentle  polar  air-currei 
During  Sunday  and  Monday  the  laat  of  a  series  of  atmospherical  depressions  passed  from  W.N.W. 
£.S  K.  across  Scotland,  the  North  Sea,  and  Denmark.      Moderate  to  strong  N.W.  winds  prevailed  in  t' 
United  Kingdom,  where  the  weather  was  showery  and  unsettled.    On  Monday  night,  the  barometer  ro 
fast,  in  the  N.  especially,  so  that  gradients  for  N.W.  winds  disappeared,  and  calms  or  light  northerly  ai 
easterly  airs  took  their  place.    The  sky  having  cleared,  temperature  became  low,  so  that  sharp  fnx 
occurred  on  the  grass  on  every  night  from  Wednesday.   In  Dublin  thick  smoke-fogs  formed  each  momin 
rendering  the  weather  very  winterly.    Towards  midday,  however,  a  bright  warm  sun  shone  forth,  ezce 
on  Saturday  which  was  dull  throughout.     Temperature  was  much  lower  than  in  the  preceding  weeks, 
was  about  tiie  average  for  the  time  of  year.    The  barometer  was  remarkably  high  hx)m  Wednesday, 
was  observed  to  range  from  80*090  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Sunday  to  30*712  inches  at  9  p.h.  of  Satordi 
Rain  fell  on  three  days  to  the  amount  of  *224  inch,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  bdng  -160  inch 
Monday.'* 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

*'  The  weather  for  the  period  under  notice  has  been,  generally  speaking,  very  fine.  There  was  a  lit 
rain  on  the  evenings  of  Monday  and  Tuesday,  and  frost  on  the  nights  of  Wednesday,  Thursday,  a 
Friday.  The  thermometer  ranged  from  51 '2^  on  Sunday  afternoon  to  80*6^  on  Thunday  morning.  T 
barometer  remained  considerably  above  80  inches  throughout  the  weds,  the  highest  reading  (80*74  faichi 
was  registered  on  Saturday  morning,  and  the  lowest  (80*10  inches)  on  Sunday  morning,  range  -64  i 
Rahi  fell  to  the  amount  of  0*211  in.*" 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  t

at  9.80,  P.M.,  air  calm,  and  the  lowest  (30-099)  on  Sonday,  at  9.30,  a.m.,  wind  W. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  430^  (bebg  0*4°  under  the  average  for  the  oc 
responding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  Ihe  temperature  was  highest  on  Mondi 
when  the  Uiermometer registered  54*0^, and  was  lowest  on  Wednesday,  ^  mercuiy  having  fall 
to  24'6^.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  44*2**;  and  of  the  Wet  finlb  41*C

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore) 
imnarka: — 

'*  An  anticyclone,  or  system  of  high  barometer,  lay  over  Great  Britain  and  Ireland  from  Tuesday. 
During  this  period  the  weather  was  much  colder  and  more  settled,  with  a  very  gentle  polar  air-current. 
During  Sunday  and  Monday  the  last  of  a  series  of  atmospherical  depressions  passed  from  W.N.W.  to 
E.S  K.  across  Scotland,  the  Xorth  Sea,  and  Denmark.  Moderate  to  strong  N.W.  winds  prevailed  In  the 
United  Kingdom,  where  the  weather  was  showery  and  unsettled.  On  Monday  night  the  barometer  rose 
fast,  in  the  N.  especially,  so  that  gradients  for  N.W.  winds  disappeared,  and  calms  or  light  northerly  and 
easterly  airs  took  their  place.  The  sky  having  cleared,  temperature  became  low,  so  that  sharp  frcMta 
occurred  on  the  gra.<«  on  every  night  from  Wednesday.  In  Dublin  thick  smoke-fogs  formed  each  morning; 
rendering  the  weather  very  winterly.  Towards  midday,  however,  a  bright  warm  sun  shone  forth,  exoepC 
on  Saturday  which  was  dull  throughout  Temperature  was  much  lower  than  in  the  precedhig  we^a.  It 
was  about  the  average  for  the  time  of  year.  The  barometer  was  remarkably  high  from  Wednesday.  It 
was  observed  to  range  from  30*090  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Sunday  to  30*712  inches  at  9  p.h.  of  Satorday. 
Rain  fell  on  three  days  to  the  amount  of  '224  inch,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  bdng  *160  inch  ea 
Monday" 

The  obflerrer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

**  The  weather  for  the  period  under  notiee  has  been,  generally  speaking,  very  fine.  There  was  a  little 
rain  on  the  evenings  of  Monday  and  Tuesday,  and  frost  on  the  nights  of  Wednesday,  Thnrsdagr,  and 
Friday.  The  thermometer  rangMi  from  51  *2o  on  Sunday  afternoon  to  80*6^  on  Thursday  momliig.  The 
barometer  remained  considerably  above  80  inches  throughout  the  week,  the  highest  reading  (^-74  hiehaa) 
was  registered  on  Saturday  morning,  and  the  lowest  (30*10  inches)  on  Sunday  morning^  range  *64  in. 
Rahi  fell  to  the  amount  of  0*211  in.*" 

At  the  Obflervatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office.  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  tbe 
barometer  daring  the  week  was  30*429  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*668)  was  on  Saturdaj 
at  9.80,  P.M.,  air  calm,  and  the  lowest  (30*099)  on  Sonday,  at  9.30,  a.m.,  wind  W. 

The  mean  temperatnre  for  the  week  was  430^  (bebg  0*4°  under  the  average  for  the  oor- 
responding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  highevt  on  Monday, 
when  the  Uiermometcrregistered  54 '0^,and  was  lowest  on  l^dnesday,  the  mercuiy  baring  fallen 
to  2i'eP.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  44*2** ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bulb  4l'e<». 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  .806;  complete  saturation  being  repreiMHed  by  1*0.

The  obsenrer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moote) 
temarks:-* 

''  Until  Thursday',  the  2 let  inst,  the  weather  in  Ireland  remained  very  quiet,  settled,  and  mfld-^-tlia  sky 
being  doudy  or  overcast,  and  the  wind  moderate  from  N.  W.    These  conditions  were  deteimiaad  by  the 
presence  of  an  anticydone,  or  area  of  high  atmospherical  pressure,  the  centre  of  which  lay  off  the  &W. 
and  S.  coasts  of  Irdand.    On  Thursday  afternoon  the  weather  underwent  a  complete  change,  owiniptothe 
advance  of  a  deep  barometrical  depression  across  the  north-west  of  Europe  from  the  Arctic  Ocean.    In 
Dublin,  the  forenoon  of  this  day  was  bright,  mild,  and  pleasant,  with  a  gradually  fs^g  barometer.    The 
air  was  unusually  dry — the  relative  humidity  being  as  low  as  56  per  cent,  at  8  p.m.    About  6  pjl  the 
wind  veered  to  N.,  the  sky  became  overcast,  temperature  fell,  and  rain  threatened.    The  night  was  wvy 
cold.    Next  day  a  polar  current,  with  showers  of  hail  and  snow,  prevailed.    A  sharp  frost  followed,  anil 
on  Saturday  the  Dublin  mountains  were  covered  with  snow.    A  fresh  bourrasque  adTtneed  from  K.W. 
on  this  day  bringing  cold  rain,  while  sleet  and  snow  fdl  heavily  in  the  evening.    Tba  barometer  raiigeci. 
from  30*671  inches,  at  9  a.m,  of  Sunday,  to  29*766  inches,  at  6  p.m.  of  Satozday.    Bain  (Indnding  haift 
and  snow)  fell  on  three  days,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  *188  inch  on  Satuday,  end  the  total. 
amount  registered  being  *228  inch.** 

The  observer  at  Armagh  writes : — 

"  A  week  of  very  gloomy  and  changeable  weather.  On  Friday  morning  there  was  a  heavy  hailishower^ 
which  was  succeeded  by  slight  falls  of  snow  occurring  at  intervals  thronghoat  the  day.  The  early  pait  oC 
Saturday  was  overcast,  the  afternoon  changed  to  rain,  and  afterwards  snow  fell  continuously  from  8  t,m^ 
till  5.80  P.M.,  with  subsequent  showers  of  sleet.  The  thermometer  attained  its  maximum  (62*6^)  oi» 
Wednesday,  and  its  minimum  (31*3^)  on  Saturday  morning.  The  barometer^  which  waa  T9tj  liigl»> 
(30*7  inches)  at  the  beginning  of  the  week,  receded  to  29*8  inches  on  Saturday  afternoon.  The  idaS- 
blew  principally  from  the  N.  and  W.    Rain  and  melted  snow  was  measured  to  the  amount  of  0*888  Sa.*^ 

The  ob8<»rvcr  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : — 

'*  The  weather  was  mild  and  rather  dry  up  to  Friday,  when  northerly  and  N.  W.  winds  set  in.  By  thi» 
time  the  barometer,  which  had  been  falling  very  slowly  since  Sunday,  when  it  had  been  at4K)-5,  haA 
fallen  bdow  30  inches,  and  a  period  of  more  unsettled  and  colder  weather  seems  to  have  commenced.** 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  th9 
barometer  during  the  week  was  30*308  inches.  The  highest  reading  (80*648)  was  on  Sundajr 
at  9.30,  A  Ai.,  wind  W.N.W.,  and  the  lowest  (29*807)  on  Saturday,  at  3.30,  p.k.,  wind  W. 

The  mean  temperature  for  the  week  was  45*1°  (being  2*1°  over  the  average  for  the  oar-' 
responding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  The  temperature  was  highest  on  Thnrsdiy* 
when  the  thermometer  registered  59*0<>,  and  was  lowest  on  Saturday,  the  mercurv  having  falleca 
to  27*6o.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  45*9*' ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bnib  4U'B^* 
The  mean  humicUty  of  the  air  was  *779 ;  complete  saturation  being  reprewnted  hf  1*0- 
Hie  jvinAll  daring  the  week  measured  '130  in.

Mardi,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortalitj  of  28*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  bj 
the  Gcnuos  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  27*4  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
S5^  in  efvy  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow  27*9,  and  in  Edinburgh  27*1.

7^  below  that  of  the  preceding  week,  and  was  upwards  of  12°  lower  than  that  of  the  week  ending  Maid 
2.  A  keen  polar  current  prevailed  throughout,  while  hail,  Hlcet,  and  snow  fell  frequentiy.  Sunday  wa 
exceptionally  severe.  On  that  day  a  polar  bourrasque  travelled  down  the  east  coast  of  England,  acconi' 
panied  by  great  cold  and  squalls  with  hail  and  snow.  In  Dublin  snow  fell  from  9  to  lO- a.m.,  and  in  tin 
afternoon  the  wind  blew  strongly  from  N.N.W.,  with  heavy  showers  of  hail  and  snow.  In  the  south  oi 
England  fine  weather  was  experienced  until  8.50  p.m.,  when  the  wind  suddenly  veered  from  W.  U. 
N.N. W.,  with  heavy  snow  and  a  remarkable  fall  of  temperature — the  thermometer  in  London  falling  froix 
46°  at  8  F.M.  to  28°  at  4.40  p.m.  During  the  fierce  squaU  which  accompanied  the  shift  of  wind  H.M.S 
Eurydice  foundered  off  the  Isle  of  Wight  The  weather  moderated  somewhat  on  Monday,  although  keei 
frosts  by  night  and  parching  winds  by  day  were  experienced.  On  Thursday  a  deep  depression  advanced 
over  Fnnce  from  the  Atlantic,  and  caused  steep  gradients  for  N.E.  and  E.  winds  in  the  United  Kingdom 
Accordingly,  a  severe  easterly  gale  sprang  up,  and  heavy  snow  storms  agafai  occurred.  Friday  anc 
Saturday  were  bright  and  very  dry  in  Dublin,  where  the  relative  humidity  fell  to  44  per  cent,  at  8  p.m 
of  Friday.  On  every  night  several  degrees  of  frost  were  registered  by  the  thermometer  exposed  on  tht 
grass.  The  barometer  was  observed  to  range  from  80*172  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Tuesday  to  29*410  inches  a 
7  P.M.  of  Thursday.  Hail,  sleet,  or  snow  fell  on  four  days,  yielding  *290  inch  of  rain,  the  ma-iriffi^i  f^U  h 
24  hours  being  *200  inch  on  Thursday.*' 

The  observer  at  Birr  Castle  (Parsonstown)  remarks : 

'*  The  past  week  was  remarkable  for  the  unusually  low  temperature  and  the  sharp  winds  which  bleii 
from  N.N.W.,  N.  and  N.E.  The  thermometer  fell  on  every  night  below  32°.  The  barometer  rose  tc 
30*04  in.  on  Tuesday  morning ;  it  then  fell  gradually  until  it  reached  29*29  in.  on  Thursday  evening 
8ince  then  it  has  remained  at  about  29*5  in.** 

At  the  Observatory  of  the  Ordnance  Survey  Office,  Phoenix  Park,  the  mean  height  of  th< 
barometer  during  the  week  was  29*804  inches.  The  highest  reading  (30*173)  was  on  Tnesdai 
at  9.30,  A.M.,  wind  W.,  and  the  lowest  (29-454)  on  Thursday,  at  3.a0,  p.m.,  wind  N.E. 

The  mean  temperature  fox  the  week  was  39*0o  (being  5*7°  under  the  average  for  the  cor- 
responding week  of  the  previous  ten  years).  Ijie  temperature  was  highest  on  Tuesday, 
whenthethermometer  registered  49*8o,  and  was  lowest  on  Wednesday,  the  mercury  haTing  fallen 
to  26-60.  The  mean  of  the  Dry  Bulb  for  the  week  was  38*8«> ;  and  of  the  Wet  Bdb  se-O^. 
The  mean  humidity  of  the  air  was  *776;  complete  saturation  being  repreie&ted  br  1*0. 
I^b^itsiiiikU  daring  the  week  measured  *3 13  in.

Piiblie  Institutions, — Of  the  2,460  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  District  d 
the  quarter,  358  occurred  in  the  various  hospitals,  prisons,  and  lunatic  asylums ;  1 
the  North  Dublin  Union  Workhouse,  and  213  in  the  South  Dublin  Union  Workh 
making  a  total  for  public  institutions  of  769,  or  31  per  cent  of  the  total  deaths. 

Btoeas«s. — Dublin  RegistrcUion  District — The  deaths  from  the  seven  principal  sy 
diseases  registered  during  the  quarter  are  equal  to  an  annual  mortality  of  4*3  per 
inhabitants.  The  number  of  deaths  from  all  zymotic  diseases  is  431,  or  17*5  per 
of  the  deaths  from  all  causes,  and  representing  an  annual  death-rate  of  5-5  per 
persons.  This  mortality,  although  29  deaths  under  the  average  for  the  correspoi 
quarter  of  the  last  ten  years,  exceeds  that  in  the  first  quarter  of  last  year  by  86  d< 
C/ompared  with  the  December  quarter  of  last  year,  there  is  only  a  difference  o 
death  in  the  total  mortality  from  zymotic  affections,  but  there  are  considerable  ^ 
tions  in  the  number  of  deaths  from  some  of  the  diseases  in  this  class,  there  h] 
been  a  large  increase  in  the  fatal  cases  of  small- pox  and  whooping-cough,  a 
corresponding  decrease  in  the  deaths  from  measles. 

Small-pox  caused  57  deaths,  of  which  16  are  chargeable  to  the  North 
Districts,  38  to  the  South  City,  1  each  to  Kathniines  and  Donnybrook,  and  1 
an  hospital  case,  admitted  from  without  the  Dublin  Registration  area.  The  nu 
of  deaths  from  small-pox  registered  in  the  preceding  quarter  was  11,  the 
number  for  the  year  1877  being  38. 

Sixty-nine  deaths  resulted  from  fever,  viz.,  17  from  typhus,  42  from  typho 
enteric,  and  10  from  simple  continued  fever.  In  the  preceding  quarter  deaths 
fever  only  numbered  56,  but  in  the  first  quarter  of  last  year  they  amounted  to  91 

Deaths  from  measles   and   its    complications,   which    had   been    very   numi 
thronghont  the  greater  part  of  last  year,  147  having  been  registered  in  the  Dece 
qnarter,  fell  last  quarter  to  75,  of  which  one-half  were  registered  in  the  mon 
January.      On   the   other   hand,  while   only   35  deaths  from  whooping-cough 
registered  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  1877,  and  only  106  during  the  whole  year, 
were  82  deaths  from  this  cause  reccirded  last  quarter.

Dublin,  Sth  April,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  6th 
pril,  1878,  represent  an  annoal  mortality  of  34'0  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
ue  Census  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
esJilaes  oatnde  the  district,  the  rate  was  32*6  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
7*4  in  efery  1,000  of  the  estimated  population;  in  Glasgow  28'5,  and  in  Edinburgh  28*8. 

In  the  Dublin  Regutration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 

l&9->80  boys  and  79  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  206  —94  males  and  112  females.    The  average 

nambers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years  were — births,  157,  and  deaths,  173. 

Tlie  number  of  deaths  nrom  zymotic  diseases  registered  during  the  week  is  42 ;  being  1 1 

ofver  the  average  number  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years.    Among  the  deaths 

^lon  these  diseases  arc  10  from  small-pox,  viz.,  1  in  the  Emerald-street  division  of  No.  1,

^here  is  no  reference  to  vaccination  in  the  returns,  so  that  it  is  impossible  to  state  accurately 

the  mmber  of  the  decedents  who  were  unprotected.    Through  the  courtesy  of  the  governors 

of  Cork-street  Hospital,  a  return  has  been  obtained  which  shows  the  number  ot  cases  of

so  that  1*102  inches  were  registered  at  0  a.m.  of  Tuesday.  Wednesday  and  Thursday  were  general!; 
unsettled,  with  some  rain  and  fog;  but  Friday  and  Saturday  proved  beautifully  fine  and  for  the  moat  par 
sunny.  Thunderstorms  were  experienced  in  England  and  France  on  Wednesday,  May  1 .  In  Dublm  th 
barometer  fell  from  30*107  inches,  at  9  a.m.  of  Sunday,  to  29*541  inches,  at  9  p.m.  of  Tuesday,  af^r  whid 
it  rose  steadily  and  gradually  to  30*078  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Saturday.  Bain  fell  on  three  davs,  the  maxima

bright  and  dry ;  but  the  barometer  was  falling  steadily  with  a  light  S.E.  irind,  and  from  9.80  A.i

iremarks : — 

*'  Exceedingly  changeable  weather  continued  all  tbruugh  this  week,  owing  to  the  passage  north-eastw 

of  a  series  of  atmospherical  depressions  along  our  Atlantic  coasts.    After  Sunday  barometrical  gradi 

for  S.W.  winds  took  the  place  of  those  for  S.E.  winds  which  previously  existed,  so  that  the  weather  bee 

comparatively  warm.    On  every  day  the  maximal  temperature  was  above  60°,  and  on  one  night  < 

did  the  minimal  temperature  fall  below  50^.    The  atmospherical  depressions  of  Wednesday  and  Fri 

were  especially  serious,  and  fresh  gales  from  S. W.  accompanied  both.    Showers  were  particularly  prsra 

during  the  week.    On  Saturday,  at  8.80  p.k.,  a  heavy  dash  of  rain  and  hail  was  accompanied  by  tbniH 

At  9  F.M.  of  Tuesday  a  paraselene  was  observed.     The  barometer  was  observed  to  range  from  2d^ 

inobet,  at  9  A.M.  of  Monday,  to  29-098  inches,  at  9  a.m.  of  Wednesday ;  from  this  latter  low  nsdii^ 

rose  to  29'860  inches^  at  9  r.»f,  of  Friday.    Bain  waa  te»a\«w4.  oil  ^vety  day— the  total  amount  bei

remarks: — 

^*This  was  another  week  of  extremely  broken  weather;  and,  as  the  centre  of  lowest  barometrical

temperature.  In  fact,  this  week  was  nearly  6^  colder  than  the  preceding  one.  On  Sunday  a  deep  " 
depression  advanced  from  the  Atlantic  over  Ireland,  and  subsequently  passed  on  to  Scotland  and  Norway.  — 
A  fresh  westerly  gale  prevailed  in  Dublin  for  several  hours,  and  drenching  showers  of  rain,  mingled  with-^ 
hail,  fen  from  time  to  time.  Next  morning  a  dry  polar  wind  set  in,  but  showers  of  cold  rain  and  haiLtf 
fell  in  the  afternoon.  At  night  even  the  shelter^  thermometer  was  as  low  as  89*9^.  Tuesday  wa^e 
generally  fine.  On  Wednesday  afternoon  the  barometer  g^ve  way  quickly,  as  a  deep  depression  approadie^V

The  centre  of  this  cyclonic  system  lay  over  the  S.  of  Ireland  on  Thursday  Tnorning.  As  it  passed

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore), 
remarks : — 

*'  In  Ireland  the  weather  underwent  a  great  change  for  the  better  early  in  the  week — light  nortlnrl^ 
airs  and  bright,  warm  sunshine  taking  the  place  of  the  squalls  and  showers  which  were  so  characteristic 
of  the  greater  part  of  May.  Very  heavy  showers  fell  on  Sunday,  especially  at  3  p.m.,  when  the  rain  waf

"XTbe  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  RegiBtration  District  during  Uie  week  ending  8th 
JcLZft^e,  1878,  repreeent  an  annual  mortality  of  27*8  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
tb^  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
locsjBJities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  25*6  per  1,000.  In  Lonaon  the  death-rate  was

the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
l^O — 95  boys  and  85  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  165—80  males  and  85  females.  The

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  Londcm  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moo 
remarks : — 

«  Very  changeable  weather  prevailed  during  this  period,  more  or  less  rain  falling  on  six  oat  of  the  »* 
days.    This  was  brought  about  by  the  passage  across  the  United  Kingdom  of  three  or  four  distinct  m 
of  comparatively  low  atmospherical  pressure.     Throughout    the  week,  also,  a  perfectly  indepen 
depression  lay  over  Scandinavia  and  the  Baltic.    On  Monday  night  a  bourrasque  came  in  over  Ire 
from  the  Atlantic,  and  next  morning  its  centre  passed  eastwards  south  of  Dublin.    Nearly  an  inch  of 
feU  in  the  city  during  the  early  morning  hours,  and  the  entire  day  was  overcast  and  chilly,  with  a 
wind.     Wednesday  was  beautifully  fine ;  but  on  Thursday  the  barometer  again  gave  way,  the  sky  be* 
overcast,  and  there  was  an  api^earance  of  rain.     The  decrease  of  pressure  continued  until  6  r^- 
Saturday,  when  a  cyclonic  system  was  travelling  north-eastwards  across  Ireland,  bringing  with  it  a  ^ 
and  continuous  rainfall.     The  temperature  was  about  the  average.     The  barometer  was  observed  to  i 
from  29*678  inches,  at  7.80  a.>l  of  Tuesday,  to  30*11)0  inches,  at  0  a.m.  of  Thursday,  from  which  ifc-  i 
receded  to  29'452  inches  (the  minimal  reading  of  the  wt^ek)  at  G  p.m.  of  Saturday.     Bain  fell  on  siac 
to  the  aggregate  amount  of  1'651  inches,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  *980  inch  on  MoDdax* 
occultation  of  the  planet  Mars  by  the  moon  occurred  at  9.85  p.m.  of  Monday,  the  3rd  inst.**

Dublin,  17th  June,  1878. 

Xhe  deaths  regitiered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  15th 
June,  1878,  repreeent  an  annual  mortality  of  25*8  in  every  1,000  of  the  peculation,  by 
the  Cenfoi  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  firom 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  25*8  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
19*0  in  eiery  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  m  Glasgow  26*6,  and  in  Edinburgh  22*2. 

In  the  Dublin  Begistration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
179—88  boys  and  96  girls, — ^and  the  deaths  to  156—91  males  and  65  females.  The

The  mortality  from  zymotic  diseases  has  fluctuated  considerably  for  some  weeks  past,  but 
in  etch,  owing  to  cases  of  small-pox  and  whooping  cough,  it  has  been  much  over  the  average 
for  the  corresponding  period  in  the  ten  years  1868-77.  Last  week  37  deaths  from  diseases  o 
this  diss  were  registered,  bein^  22  less  than  in  the  preceding  week,  but  14  over  the  average 
for  the  24th. week ;  they  comprise  18  from  small-pox,  3  from  fever  (2  typhus,  and  I  typhoid  or 
enteric  fever),  7  from  whooping  cough,  2  each  from  croup  and  diarrhoea,  1  from  measles  &c. 
The  deaths  from  small-pox,  afi  of  which,  with  one  exception,  occurred  in  the  South  City 
Districts,  are  1  less  Uian  in  ihe  week  ended  8th  inst.  The  hospital  returns  show  that  97 
smatt-pox  patients  were  admitted  during  the  week  (being  11  more  than  in  the  preceding 
week),  59  were  discharged,  14  died,  and  258  remained  under  treatment  on  Saturday  last.

General  Reguter  Office^  CharlemarU  Ratuff 
Dublin,  17 th  June,  1878. 

Hie  doatlifl  refpstered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  during  the  week  ending  15th 
ne,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  25*8  in  every  1,000  of  the  p<^ulation,  by 
I  Census  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  pubHc  institutions  from 
alities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  25*3  per  1,000.    In  Lonoon  the  death-rate  was 

0  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow  26*6,  and  in  Edinburgh  22*2. 

ji  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
) — 88  boys  and  96  girls, — ^and  the  deaths  to  156—91  males  and  65  females.  The 
rage  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years  were — births,  187,  and 
ilu,  133.

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore), 

remarks : — 

**  Frequent  rains  again  occurred  during  this  week,  the  mean  temperature  of  which  was  also  somewhat 
below  the  average.  Atmospherical  depressions,  of  rather  irregular  and  varying  form,  travelled  north-east- 
wards over  the  British  Isles,  and  brought  -with  them  clouded  skies  and  cliangcable  weather.  On  Sunday, 
rain  fell  in  torrents  over  Dublin  from  9  30  to  10  a.m.,  with  thunder  and  lightning.  The  wind  was  fresh 
from  W.  on  Monday,  but  it  backed  to  S.  the  same  night  owing  to  the  approach  of  a  new  and  deep 
depression  from  the  Atlantic.  Tuesday  was  wet  throughout,  the  centre  of  the  depressien  just  mentioned 
passing  north-eastwards,  a  short  distance  north  of  DubUu  in  the  afternoon.  When  the  centre  had  pasMd, 
the  wind  became  N.W.  with  a  temporary  improvement  in  the  weather.  On  Thursday  at  midday  ridn  fell, 
locally  in  Dublin  to  the  amount  of  a  quarter  of  an  inch.  Friday  was  generally  fine,  but  on  Saturdays 
another  shallow  depression  brought  hca^y  rain  with  thunder  at  4  p.m.  The  barometer  was  observed  tc 
vary  from  29*202  inches  at  8  p.m.  of  Tuesday,  to  29-974  inches  at  9  a.m.  of  Friday.  Rain  was 
on  every  day,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  '808  inch  on  Tuesday,  and  the  total  amount ' 
iMcb§0  (nearly  2j  inches).*

and  rather  cloudy  skiea  On  Thursday  a  bourrasque  travelled  northwards  over  Ireland,  where  squalls  ai 
rainy  weather  prevailed  for  some  hours.  Friday  and  Saturday  proved  very  fine,  bright,  and  warm.  1 
the  S.K.  of  England  great  heat  was  experienced  on  these  days — the  thermometer  rising  in  London  to  8G

"  Summer  heat,  accompanied  by  severe  thunderstorms,  was  the  prominent  feature  of  the  weatherduring  tl:

but,  nevertheless,  very  warm  and  oppressive  weather  was  experienced  on  several  days.    Thus,  in  Dubfia  t.

266  Quarterly  Summary  of  Births  and  Deaths  in 

Glasgow  the  number  was  3,611,  equal  to  25*5  in  every  1,000 ;  and  in  Edinburgh  1,310» 
affording  an  annual  death-rate  of  23*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population. 

Public  Institutions, — Of  the  2,380  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  District  during 
the  quarter,  505  occurred  in  the  various  hospitals,  prisons,  and  lunatic  asylums;  166  in 
the  North  Dublin  Union  Workhouse,  and  207  in  the  South  Dublin  Union  Workhouse  ; 
making  a  total  for  public  institutions  of  878,  or  37  per  cent,  of  the  total  deaths. 

Biseases. — Dublin  Registration  District — There  were  586  deaths  from  zymotic 
diseases  registered  during  the  quarter,  being  155  more  than  in  the  preceding  three 
months,  and  201  over  the  average  number  in  the  June  quarter  of  the  last  ten  years. 
Exclusive  of  15  hospital  cases  admitted  from  without  the  district,  the  deaths  from  the 
seven  principal  diseases  of  this  class  number  478,  equivalent  to  an  annual  mortality  of 
6*1  per  1,000  inhabitants.  These  deaths  exceed  the  number  from  the  same  causes  in 
the  March  quarter  of  this  year  by  143,  deaths  from  small-pox  having  risen  from  56 
to  206,  and  an  important  decline  in  the  mortality  from  measles  being  almost  counter- 
balanced by  an  increase  in  that  from  other  diseases,  notably  whooping-cough. 

There  were  212  denths  from  small-pox  registered  during  the  quarter,  of  which  47 
are  chargeable  to  the  North  City  Districts,  152  to  the  South  City,  2  to  BAthmines,  4  to 
Donnybrook,  1  to  Blackrock,  and  6  were  of  persons  admitted  into  hospital  from  without 
the  Dublin  Registration  area.  Classifying  these  deaths  according  to  the  dates  on 
which  they  occurred^  it  is  found  that  2  should  have  been  registered  in  the  previous 
quarter,  67  took  place  in  April  (38  being  in  the  second  half  of  the  month),  80  in  May, 
and  63  in  June.  Allowing  for  deaths  in  June  not  yet  registered,  it  would  seem  that  the 
epidemic  is  not  increasing  in  intensity,  but  that  there  has  been  but  little  abatement  of 
the  disease  in  the  later  weeks  of  the  quarter. 

Weekly  Beturns  of  the  cases  of  small-pox  treated  in  the  various  Dublin  hospitals 
have  been  received  for  the  last  nine  weeks ;  the  information  therein  may  be  thus 
summarized  : — On  Saturday,  27th  April,  there  were  231  small-pox  patients  in  hospital ; 
between  that  date  and  Saturday,  29th  June,  777  new  cases  were  admitted,  122  patients 
died^  and  645  were  discharged,  leaving  241  under  treatment  at  the  close  of  the  quarter. 
The  highest  weekly  number  of  new  cases  admitted  during  the  period  named  was  106 
in  the  week  ending  18th  May,  and  the  lowest  70  in  the  week  ending  Ist  June. 

The  various  forms  of  continued  fever  caused  81  deaths,  viz. :  typhus  27,  typhoid  or 
enteric  fever  44,  and  simple  continued  fever  10.  In  the  second  quarter  of  last  year 
79  deaths  from  fever  were  registered. 

Only  22  deaths  from  measles  were  recorded,  against  75  in  the  preceding  quarter  and 
147  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  last  year,  but  the  deaths  from  whoopinff-cough  amount  to 
112,  being  30  more  than  in  the  preceding  quarter,  and  77  over  me  number  in  the 
December  quarter  of  1877. 

Among  the  deaths  from  other  zymotic  diseases  there  are  39  from  diarrhcBa^  27  from 
croup,  20  from  scarlet  fever,  7  from  diphtheria,  6  from  dysentery,  4  from  erysipelas, 
3  from  quinsy,  &c. 

One  hundrcil  and  thirty-eight  children  died  from  convulsions,  being  15  over  tiie 
average  number  in  the  second  quarter  of  the  last  ten  years,  but  27  less  than  in  the 
June  quarter  of  1877. 

Although  not  so  fatal  as  in  the  second  quarter  of  last  year,  diseases  of  the  respiratory 
organs  caused  470  deaths,  being  105  over  the  average  for  the  June  quarter  of  the  ten 
years  1868-77 ;  they  consist  of  329  from  bronchitis,  85  from  pneumonia  or  infiamnuir 
tion  of  the  lun^s,  9  from  pleurisy,  4  from  asthma,  3  from  laryngitis,'  and  40  from  long 
disease  unspecified.  The  deaths  from  these  diseases  form  20  per  cent  of  the  deaths 
from  all  causes,  and  are  equal  to  an  annuid  mortality  of  6  per  1,000  of  the  population. 

One  hundred  and  seven  deaths  were  ascribed  to  heart  disease,  3  to  aneurism,  5  to 
pericarditis  or  inflammation  of  the  heart's  covering ;  35  to  apoplexy,  44  to  paralysis, 
27  to^  cephalitis  or  inflammation  of  the  brain  and  its  membranes,  4  to  epilepsy,  1  to 
insanity,  29  to  brain  disease  unspecified ;  2  each  to  jaundice  and  hepatitis  or  inflamma- 
tion of  the  liver,  34  to  liver  disease  unspecified ;  1 8  to  nephria  or  Bright's  dis^Me,  2 
each  to  diabetes  and  nephritis  or  inflammation  cf  the  kidneys,  1  each  to  stone  in  the 
bladder  and  cystitis  or  inflammation  of  the  bladder,  and  16  to  kidney  disease  unspecified. 

Phthisis  or  pulmonary  consumption  caused  258  deaths,  mesenteric  disease  40|  scrofola 
JZ,  bydrocephalua  or  water  on  the  brain  47,  cancer  51,  and  gout  4. 
There  were  02  deaths  from  accidents  or  ne^\gesiiQ«>^  caaRA^f  homicide,  and  3  of 
saiclde  registered.

[No.  28. 


General  Begitter  Office,  Charlemont  Home, 
Dublin,  I5th  JvJLy,  1878. 

The  deaths  regiistered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  13th 
July,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  22*6  in  eTery  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  21*8'  per  1,000.  In  Lonoon  the  death-rate  was 
33*2  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow,  19*5 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  20*6. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
185—102  boys  and  83  girls,— and  the  deaths  to  137—70  males  and  67  females.  The 
awrage  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previotis  ten  years  were — births,  159,  and 
deadis,120. 

.  Deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  are  1  less  than  in  preceding  week,  but  13  over  the  ayerage 
for  the  28th  week  of  the  last  ten  years  :  they  number  38,  of  which  23  were  from  small-pox, 
4  from  fever  (2  typhus  and  2  typhoid  fever),  3  each  from  scarlet  fever  and  diarrhcea,  and  I 
each  from  diphtheria,  whooping-cough,  erysipelas,  and  hydrophobia,  the  last  named  death 
being  that  of  a  girl  a^d  5  years,  who  was  bitten  by  ^*  a  rabid  dog  "  on  5th  April  last  and 
died  m  Sir  P.  Dun^s  Hospital  on  the  4th  instant. 

Of  the  23  deaths  from  small-pox  4  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City  Districts,  18  to  the 
South  City,  and  1  to  Donnybrook.  The  deaths  from  this  cause  are  5  over  the  number 
registered  in  the  preceding  week,  but  there  has  been  a  remarkable  decline  in  the  number 
of  fresh  cases  of  the  disease  admitted  into  hospital,  the  total  for  the  week  bein?  only  51, 
which  is  43  under  the  number  for  the  previous  week,  and  much  less  than  in  any  week  lor  some 
months  past.  Seventy-fuur  small-pox  patients  were  discharged  during  the  week,  and  16  died ; 
197  remained  under  treatment  on  Saturday  last,  being  39  less  than  on  Saturday  6th  instant. 

Tablb  I. ^The  Numbxb  of  Casbs  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases   treated,  during   the 

Week  ended  Saturday,  13th  July,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals: — ^Cork-

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore), 

remarks : — 

"  North-westerly  winds  with  very  cloudy  skies  and  a  ratlier  low  temperature  were  the  characteristics  of 
this  period.  Until  Friday  the  barometer  was  relatively  high  in  the  S.W.  or  S.,  while  one  or  two  areas  of 
low  pressure  travelled  eastwards  across  Scotland  snd  Scandinavia.  On  Friday  and  Saturday  a  shallow 
depression  was  found  off  the  S.  of  Ireland  and  S.W.  of  England,  in  which  localities  rainy  weather  pre- 
vailed. In  Dublin  some  showers  fell  on  Sunday  morning,  but  Umt  day  and  Monday  were  fine.  On  Tuesday 
a  new  depression  came  in  from  the  Atlantic,  the  wind  backed  to  W.  and  freshened  with  an  increase  of 
cloud.  The  next  two  days  were  cloudy,  and  a  fresh  to  strong  breeze  prevailed  accompanied  by  a  few 
showers.  Early  on  Friday  moruin/z  a  heavy  shower  fell  locally  over  Dublin,  where  the  r^ulting  rainfall 
measured  one-tenth  of  an  inch.  In  the  afternoon  the  sky  cleared  and  a  beautiful  evening  followed. 
Saturday  also  was  warm  and  brilliant,  with  light  northerly  airs  and  a  hot  sunshine.  On  this  day  the 
highest  (70'4^)  and  lowest  (48*2*')  temperatures  of  the  week  were  recorded.  The  barometer  ranged  only 
between  29'946  inches,  at  9  a.m.  of  Friday,  and  80*169  inches,  at  9  r.u.  of  Saturday.  Bain  fell  on  three 
daj's—the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  bemg  *100  inch,  onTbuxvAay.''

**  Throughout  this  week  an  anticyclone,  or  area  of  high  atmospherical  pressure^  lay  over  Ireland,  whsrt 

the  weather  was  consequently  fine  and  dry.     Until  FrUlay'the  centre  of  this  system  of  Ugh  pressure  was 

found  off  the  S.W.  or  W.  of  Ireland,  so  that  gradients  for  K.W.  winds  existed.    The  air  was  cool  on 

Sunday,  but  on  the  following  day  a  considerable  rise  of  temperature  occurred  and  a  period  of  warm 

Weather  set  ia.    Cloudy  skies  tempered  the  heat  by  day  in  Dublin,  but  hi  London  the  thermometer  rose 

above  80**  in  the  shade  on  several  days — to  88°  on  Friday.     Wednesday  night  was  remarkably  warm 

in  ]>nblin— the  mmtma/ temperature  behig  65*9°.     On  Friday  morning  the  centre  of  tha  antkydonewas 

near  Dublin,  where  calms  or  light  easterly  airs,  with  foggA*  or  hazy  weather,  took  the  plaoe  ol  the 

previously  existing  K.W.  wind.    On  this  day  patches  of  electrical-looking  ciims  cloud  were  obeerved, 

Mjod  prov^  to  he  the  precursors  of  a  severe  thunderstorm,  which  prevailed  over  the  sea  to  tha  SJE.  and 

X.  of  Dublin  early  on  Saturday  morning.    Frequent  tYinndei  waa  heard  for  several  hours,'  from  8.80  ajl^

General  Register  Ofiee,  Charlemont  Hauae, 
Dublin,  29th  JtUy,  1878. 

The  deaths  regbtered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  27th 
Jnly,  1678,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  26*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  25-4  per  1,000.  In  Lonoon  the  death-rate  was 
26*1  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  popuUtion ;  m  Glasgow,  24*0 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  18*5. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  daring  the  week  amounted  to 
139 — 75  boys  and  64  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  161 — 90  males  and  71  females.  The 
average  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years  were — ^births,  160,  and 
deaths,  125. 

Deaths  from  zymotic  diseases,  which  in  the  preceding  five  weeks  had  been,  respectively, 
30,  53,  39,  38,  and  30,  rose  again  last  week  to  44,  being  15  over  the  average  number  for  the 
30th  week  of  the  last  ten  years ;  18  were  from  small-pox,  8  from  fever  ^3  typhus,  4  typhoid 
or  enteric,  and  1  simple  continued  fever),  7  from  diarrhcea,  2  each  from  dysentery  and 
whooping-cough,  I  each  from  measles,  scarlatina,  diphtheria,  croup,  &c. 

The  deaths  from  small-pox  are  5  in  excess  of  the  number  registered  in  the  week  ending 
20th  instant,  and  are  equal  to  the  average  weekly  number  for  the  last  three  months :  14  are 
chargeable  to  the  South  City  Districts,  1  to  the  North  City,  and  3  to  Rathmines.  The 
number  of  new  cases  of  the  disease  admitted  into  the  Dublin  hospitals,  which  had  fallen  to 
51  in  the  week  ended  13th  instant,  rose  to  64  in  that  ended  20th  instant,  and  to  72  last 
week.  Sixty-six  patients  were  discharged  during  the  week,  13  died,  and  183  remained 
under  treatment  on  Saturday,  being  7  less  than  at  the  close  of  the  previous  week.

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore), 
remarks: — 

**  With  the  breaking  up  of  the  anticyclone  at  the  beginning  of  the  week,  the  weather  became  changeable, 
and  a  series  of  severe  thunderstorms  prevailed  throughout  the  British  Isles.  In  Dnblin  Sunday  and 
Monday  were  beautifully  fine  and  sunshiny,  with  a  pleasant  sea  breeze.  The  amount  of  cloud  was  very 
smalL  A  steady  decrease  of  pressare,  however,  showed  that  a  *  thunderstorm  depression  *  was  advancbu^ 
over  the  country  from  the  westward.  At  4,  p.m.,  on  Tuesday  massive  nimbi  and  cumuli  were  seen  to  W. 
from  Dublin ;  and,  although  the  weather  remained  fine  in  the  city,  a  heavy  thunderstorm  passed  over  the 
midland  and  western  counties  of  Ireland.  At  night  occasional  vivid  flashes  of  lightning  were  observed. 
A  gentle  rain  fell  on  Wednesday  morning,  and  that  day  was  cool  and  changeable.  Thursday  was  very 
fine,  but  heavy  showers  of  rain  fell  on  Friday,  after  which  the  weather  again  took  up  with  a  cool  K.  wind 
and  clearer  sky.  Dublin  quite  escaped  the  thunderstorms  which  were  so  prevalent  in  most  parts  of  the 
country  from  Tuesday  to  Thursday  inclusive.  The  barometer  fell  from  80*188  inches,  at  9,  A.M.,  of 
Monday,  to  29*787  inches,  at  9,  a.m.,  of  Wednesday,  and  again  rose  to  80*085  inches,  at  9,  p.m.,  of 
Saturday.  Temperature  was  about  10^  lower  at  the  end  than  at  the  beginning  of  the  week.  Bahi  fell  oo 
four  days,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  '824  inch  on  Friday,  and  the  total  fall  *438  inch."

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Of&ce,  London  (Dr.  J.  W*  M oore)i 
Remarks : — 

**  Very  pleasant  weather  was  cxpcricnctjd  Until  f'ridaV,  when  a  fresh  or  strong  easterly  wind  began  to 
How  with  an  unsettled  appearance.  On  Sunday  a  shallow  atmospherical  depression  appeared  off  the  S.W. 
of  Ireland,  and  passed  away  in  a  south-easterly  direction  across  the  Bay  of  Biscay  and  Franc&  In  its  wake 
an  anticyclone  advanced  over  Ireland,  where  the  barometer  rose  steadily  with  light K.  to£.  winds  and  fine 
cool  weather.  On  Wednesday  this  anticyclone  lay  over  Great  Britain  and  Ireland,  the  barometer  readings 
at  8  A.M.  being  remarkably  uniform  at  all  the  British  stations — between  30*3  and  30*4  inches.  Pr'essore 
now  began  to  give  way  in  the  extreme  S.^-over  Spain  and  France, — and  this  change  subsequently  extended 
to  Ireland  and  England,  while  the  barometer  remained  high  in  the  North  of  Scotland.  Gradients  for 
easterly  winds  thus  became  steep,  and  strong  breezes  from  this  quarter  set  in  generally.  In  Dublin  the 
wind  rose  at  times  to  a  strong  breeze  or  moderate  gale  from  N.E.  on  Saturday.  Ko  rain  fell  until  the 
CTcning  of  this  day,  when  some  .smart  showers  occurred,  yielding  -OSO  inch  of  rain.  On  Thursday  morning 
a  dense  vapour  fog  prevailed  for  seme  time.  The  nights  were  chilly  at  first,  and  the  wind  constantly  ia 
the  £.  or  N.E.  llie  barometer  rose  gradually  from  30012  inches,  at  9  a.m.  of  Sunday,  to  30*886  inches, 
at  9  A  M.  of  Wednesday.  From  this  high  reading  it  receded  to  29*908  inchee,  at  7*80  P.1C.  of  Satnnlay, 
when  AD  utmoapbericfd  depression  lay  over  France  and  the  S.E,  of  England,**

General  Register  Office,  Charlemont  Souse, 
Dvhlin,  I2th  August,  1878. 

The  deaths  re^tered  in  the  Dublin  RegiBtration  District  daring  the  week  ending  1 0th 
August,  1878,  represent  an  annual  morj^ty  of  26'3  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  25*8  per  1,000.  In  Lonaon  the  death-rate  was 
24*7  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population;  in  Glasgow,  21*6 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  15*2 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
173—94  boyj  and  79  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  159—86  males  and  73  females.  The 
average  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years  were — ^births,  173,  and 
deaths,  128. 

There  were  47  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  registered  during  the  week,  being  7  less 
than  in  the  preceding  week,  but  15  over  the  average  for  the  32nd  week  of  the  last  ten 
years.  They  comprise  20  from  diarrhoea  (12  of  which  were  of  children  under  1  year  old), 
12  from  small-pox,  5  from  fever  (2  t3q)hus,  2  typhoid  or  enteric,  and  1  simple  continued 
fever^  3  each  from  croup  and  simple  cholera,  2  from  whooping-cough,  and  1  each  from 
measles  and  erysipelas. 

The  number  of  deaths  from  small-pox  is  the  same  as  in  the  preceding  week.  The  number  of 
new  cases  of  the  disease  admitted  into  the  Dublin  Hospitals  last  week  was  37,  being  1  less  than 
in  the  preceding  week.  Sixty-three  patients  were  discharged ;  9  died,  and  I  *25  remained 
under  treatment  on  Saturday,  being  35  less  than  at  the  close  of  the  previous  week. 

The  Deputy  Registrar  of  No.  2  North  City  (Coleraine-street)  District  slates,  that 
diarrhota  is  exceedingly  prevalent  and  is  beginning  to  prove  very  fatal  among  children^  and  attri- 
butes the  presence  of  the  disease  mainly  to  defective  sanitation,  specially  to  bad  sewerage. 

Tablc  L — ^The  Number  of  Cases  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases  treated,  during  the 
Week  ended  Saturday,  10th  August,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals: — -Cork-

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore)| 
remarks : — 

•'  The  weather  during  the  greater  part  of  the  week  was  determined  by  the  very  peculiar  movements  of  a 
cyclonic  system  which  had  travelled  northwards  across  France  on  the  2nd  and  3rd  Inst  At  8  a.m.  of 
Sunday  this  depression  lay  over  the  English  Channel  and  the  south  of  England,  where  thunderstorms  and 
heavy  rain  prevailed.  In  Dublin  the  barometer  gave  way  slowly  all  day,  with  a  fresh  N.E.  wind,  and  a 
good  deal  of  rain  fell  in  the  evening.  The  depression  was  then  evidently  travelling  in  a  westerly  direction ; 
and  in  point  of  fact  its  centre  was  found  near  Valencia  in  Kerry  on  Monday  morning,  when  heavy  rain 
and  high  winds  were  felt  along  the  E.  coast  of  Ireland.  On  Tuesday  the  same  depression  began  to.  travel 
northwards,  the  centre  being  off  tlie  W.  coast  of  Scotland,  at  8  A.M.,  of  Wednesday,  and  over  the  Hebridej 
at  the  same  hour  on  Thursda}*.  On  Friday  this  erratic  bourrasque  finally  disappeared  to  the  eastward  in 
the  neighbourhood  of  Denmark,  while  a  new  disturbance  approached  Ireland  from  the  Atlantic,  and  caoaed 
a  renewed  rainfall  at  the  Irish  stations.  Very  severe  thunderstorms  accompanied  the  former  depression  in 
its  journey  across  France  and  the  United  Kingdom — and  the  rainfall  was  exceptionally  large  in  many 
places.  Dublin,  however,  quite  escaped  the  electrical  distorbances  of  the  week,  and  the  weather  in  this  city 
was  extremely  fine  on  Tuesday,  Thursday  and  Saturday.  The  barometer  was  observed  to  range  between 
80'116  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Thursday  and  29*656  inches  at  9  a.k.  of  Saturday.  Rain  feU  on  four  dm  ta

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  OfHce,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  A! oore), 
remarks : — 

**  The  weather  Was  very  unsettled  and  fainy  throughout  the  week.  On  Sunday  A  deep  atmospberical 
depression  advanced  towards  the  Hebrides  from  the  S.W.,  and  caused  more  or  less  rainy  weather  oVer  the 
entire  of  the  United  Kingdom.  In  Dublin  Monday  was  tine  with  the  exception  of  a  few  showers  in  the 
afternoon,  and  at  night  the  partial  eclipue  of  the  moon  was  well  seen,  especially  after  11  p.m.  On  Tnesday 
a  new  disturbance  travelled  quickly  across  Ireland  from  W.S.W.,  causing  an  exceedingly  heavy  rainfall 
at  many  stations  in  this  country  and  in  England.  At  Kingstown  1*77  inches  of  rain  were  registered  up  to 
8  AiM.  of  Wednesday  ;  in  Dublin  1*106  inches  fell.  As  the  centre  moved  eastwards,  the  wind  shifted  to 
N.W.  and  the  weather  became  temporarily  fine  and  bright  At  night,  however,  more  rain  fell,  and  next 
morning  another  bourrasque  was  maniiestly  approaching  from  8.W.  This  prov«l  to  be  a  *  thunderstorm 
depression.*  The  weather  remained  fine  until  4.30  p.m  ,  when  a  severe  thurderstorm  passed  over  the  city 
and  its  S.£.  suburbs  from  S.W.  There  was  vivid  forked  lightning  and  much  rain  and  hail  felL  At  Fitz- 
william-square  the  rainfall  from  the  storm  amounted  to  '3S1  of  an  inch,  but  at  Kingstown  no  Icrss  than 
2*28  inches  of  rain  were  registered  next  morning.  A  peculiar  feature  of  the  storm  was  a  succession  of 
electrical  discharges  towards  and  from  a  magnificent  mass  of  snowy  white  cumulus  cloud.  Friday  was 
cold  and  showery.  Saturday  was  stormy  with  frequent  showers.  The  barometer  was  very  unsteady 
during  the  week.     It  fell  to  20*290  inches  at  9  p.m.  of  Tue^ay,  and  rose  to  29*890  mche»  at  9  p.m.  of

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore), 
remarks : — 

** Although  not  so  unsettled  as  during  the  previous  week,  the  weather  was  changeable,  especially  from 
Tuesday.  In  Dublin  Sunday  and  Monday  were  very  fino,  and  the  sun  shone  at  times  with  considerable 
power.  On  Monday  a  bourrasque  was  travelling  northvrard^ii  across  the  Bay  of  Biscay,  and  at  8  A.X.  of 
Tuesday  its  centre  lay  off  the  South  of  Ireland,  where  the  wvather  became  dull  and  rainy.  During  the 
next  two  days  the  barometer  remained  lowest  to  the  S.W.  of  Ireland,  and  S.E.  winds  prevMled,  with 
tolerably  fine  weather.  On  Thursday  the  depression  in  the  S.W.  advanced  slowly  in  a  north-easterly 
direction,  causing  a  moderate  to  fresh  easterly  f;alc  and  heavy  rainfall  in  Ireland,  Wales,  and  England. 
Friday  was  most  inclement  in  Dublin,  bein;;  gloomy,  wet,  and  stormy.  TemiKsrature  also  was  low  for  the 
time  of  year.  On  Saturday  the  weather  cleared  temporarily,  and  the  wind  backed  through  N.E.  and  N. 
to  N.W.:  but  the  week  closed  with  an  unsettled  appearnnce.  The  barometer  was  observed  to  range 
between  30-034  inches,  at  9  a.m.  of  Sunday,  and  29'Oo3  inches,  at  9  p.m.  of  Saturday.  Rain  fell  on  five 
days,  the  maximal  fall  in  24  hours  being  *661  inch,  on  Friday,  and  the  total  amount  registered  bdog  *985 
inch."

19'9  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population;  m  Glasgow,  20*9  ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  16*8. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
183^86  boys  and  97  girls,— and  the  deaths  to  155—74  males  and  81  females.  The 
average  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  years  were — births,  166,  and 
deaths,  143. 

Deaths  from  zymotic  diseases,  which  in  the  preceding  five  weeks  numbered  respectively  44, 
51,  47,  56  and  41,  amounted  last  week  to  48,  beins  9  over  the  average  number  for  the  corres- 
ponding week  of  the  last  ten  years.  The  most  fatal  disease  in  this  class  was  diarrhoea,  from 
which  17  children  under  5  yeai's  of  a^e  and  3  adults  died ;  7  deaths  resulted  from  small-pox, 
8  from  fever  (1  t}'phu8  and  7  tj-phoia  or  enteric  fever),  5  from  whooping  cough,  2  each  from 
scarlet  fever  and  simple  cholera,  1  each  from  diphtheria,  croup,  &c. 

The  deaths  from  small-pox,  which  consist  of  4  in  the  South  City  Districts,  and  3  cases 
admitted  into  hospital  from  without  the  Dublin  Registration  area,  are  3  less  than  in  the  pre- 
ceding week,  and  are  much  lower  than  in  any  other  week  for  the  last  four  months ;  the  hos- 
pital returns,  however,  are  not  as  favourable  as  those  for  the  week  ended  24th  August, 
during  which  only  22  new  cases  of  the  disease  were  admitted;  last  week  the  admissions 
numbered  43;  30  patients  were  discharged  during  the  week,  7  died,  and  119  remained  under 
treatment  on  Saturday,  being  6  more  than  at  the  close  of  the  preceding  week.

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore)-^ 
remarks : — 

"Although  short  periods  of  fine  bright  weather  were  experienced,  this  week  was  generally  unsettled  anc^ 
rainy.     During  the  first  two  days  an  irregularly  distributed  area  of  low  atmospherical  pressure  lay  ove^^ 
the  United  Kingdom;  but— as  the  barometrical  gradients  were  slight — no  high  winds  or  very  bad  weather^ 
were  experienced.     In  fact,  Sunday  was  beautifully  fine  in  Dublin,  and  on  IMonday  only  one  smart  shower^ 
fell  (at  4  P.M.)     On  Tuesday  afternoon  heavy  showers  fell  at  intervals,  but  Wednesday  proved  unexpectedl^i^ 
fine,  bright,   and  warm — the  barometer  rising  steadily  and  the  wind  drawing  into  N.W.      At  nigh' 
there  was    brilliant  starlight ;   but   on  Tliursday   morning  a  cyclone  was  mauifeslly  approaching  th^ 
south  of  Ireland  from  the  Atlantic — the  barometer  was  falling  quickly,  and  tbe  w  ind  had  shitted  to  E.  witl^ 
an  overcast  sky  and  threatening  appearance.     In  the  afternoon  rain  fell  very  heavily  in  Dublin  and  th^ 
wind  rose  to  a  moderate  gale  from  E.  and  N.E.     At  night  a  still  more  violent  S.  W.  gale  prevailed  in  th»   - 
English  Channel,  where  severe  thun<leretorms  had  occurred  some  hours  previously.      Friday  was  giocm^. 
and  wet  in  Dublin  with  a  light  N.W.  wind,  but  on  Saturday  the  weather  improved  as  the  bourrssqn  — 
passed  off  to  tbe  north-eastward.     The  barometer  was  observed  to  range  between  29*395  inches  at  9  p.j^ 

of  Thursday  and  29-972  inches  at  9  p.m.  oI  Saturday.     l^amUW  qu^x^  ^«^^\a  \iia  ^t&sssoiX ^1*^12  incl^

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  during  the  week  ending  7th 
September,  1878,  represent  an  annual  morta£ty  of  24*3  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  23*8  per  1,000.  In  Lonaon  the  death-rate  was

The  deaths  from  small-pox,  all  of  which  are  chargeable  to  the  South  City  Districts,  are  1

portion  of  the  British  Islands  in  the  rear  of  the  cyclone  which  had  caused  such  bad  weather  towards  the

spread  over  the  country;  but  on  Monday  a  depression  skirted  the  west  coast  of  Ireland,  where  the  wind 
freshened  from  S.W.  with  clouds  and  some  rain.  In  Dublin  the  weather  remained  dxy  and  warm,  although 
tlte  Ay  became  overcast    A  tranquil  period  of  summer-like  weather  followed,  which  lasted  until  Satur-

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Mooro) 
remarks : — 

"  In  the  neighbourhood  of  Dublin  the  weather  was  fine  and  pleasant  throughout  this  week,  but  in  the 
north  it  was  changeable.  Several  atmospherical  depressions  passed  over  the  northern  parts  of  the  British 
Islands,  while  the  barometer  was  generally  high  m  the  S.W.,  S.,  or  S.E.  This  distribution  of  pressure  led  to 
a  prevalence  of  westerly  winds,  varying  between  S.  W.  in  front  of  the  centres  of  the  depressions  in  the  N.  and 
N.W.  in  their  rear.  Considerable  changes  in  temperature  were  also  observed,  and  the  nights  of  Monday 
and  Thursday  were  cold.  On  Thursday  a  heavy  squall  from  N.  passed  down  the  cast  coast  of  England,  but 
in  Dublin  that  day  was  beautifully  fine  after  a  smart  shower  of  rain  in  the  early  morning  hours.  On 
FridMy  and  Saturday  the  barometer  gave  way  considerably,  and  the  week  closed  with  a  fresh  S.  W.  breeze 
and  A  rather  threatening  appearance.    The  baiomeiei  waa  obaetN^^  \.q  i^\^^^  V>^V9i«^  EQ  '283  inches  ait  9  p.il

remarks : — 

*•  A  very  stormy  period  prevailed  from  Sunday  to  Thursday  inclusive,  and  the  week  was  further 
characterised  by  the  first  decided  autumnal  fall  of  temperature,  the  mean  being  more  than  5^  lower  than 
that  of  the  preceding  week.  On  Sunday  a  very  serious  atmospherical  depression  advanced  from  S.W., 
and  barometrical  gradients  for  S.  and  S.  W.  winds  became  very  steep  all  over  the  United  Kingdom.  In 
Dublin  a  fresh  to  strong  S.S.W.  gale  prevailed  in  the  forenoon,  while  shortly  after  mid-day  rain  fell 
lieavily,  and  the  wind  veered  towards  W.,  continuing  to  blow  in  violent  squalls.  At  8  a.m.  of  Monday, 
the  centre  of  the  depression  was  near  the  Shetland  Isles,  where  the  barometer  was  as  low  as  28-53  inchea 
At  the  same  moment  the  reading  at  Biarritz  was  oO'2'S  inches — a  difference  of  1*7  inches.  Heavy  gaks 
were  blowing  at  nearly  all  the  British  stations,  and  in  Ireland  the  mercur}*  was  rising  quickly  with  a  keen 
dry  air.  In  Dublin  the  relative  humidity  was  only  67  per  cent  at  9  a.m.  On  Tuesday  and  Thursday 
minor  depressions  crossed  the  country  from  TV.  to  E.,  and  caused  squally,  cold,  and  showery  weather.    Qn

Dublin,  Uth  October,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Reffistration  District  daring  the  week  ending  12th 
October,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortimty  of  25*8  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  (Hstrict,  the  rate  was  25*4  per  1,000.  In  Lonaon  the  death-rate  was 
20*7  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  popuktion;  in  Glasgow,  21*1  ;  and  in  Edkburgh,  16*1. 


In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amotmted  to 
156—85  boys  and  71  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  156—78  males  and  78  females.  The 
average  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  previous  ten  jrears  were— births,  150,  and

Only  20  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  were  registered  during  the  week,  bemg  19  less  than 
in  the  previous  week,  and  only  one-half  of  the  avera^  in  the  forty-first  week  of  the  last  ten 
years.  They  comprise  5  each  from  small-pox,  scarlatma,  and  fever  (typhus),  2  each  from  croup 
and  diarrhoea,  and  1  from  whooping-cough.  The  decline  in  the  mortality  from  diarrhoea  in 
the  last  two  weeks  is  remarkable. 

The  registered  deaths  from  small-pox,  all  of  which  arc  chargeable  to  the  South  City  districts, 
are  2  lesu  than  the  number  registered  in  the  precediag  week.  Twenty-nine  new  cases  were 
admitted  into  the  Dublin  hospitals  during  the  week,  bemg  1  less  than  in  the  preceding  week ;

ten  years.  Excludinf(  19  hospital  cases  admitted  from  without  the  district^  the  deaths 
from  the  seven  principal  diseases  of  this  class  are  equal  to  an  annual  mortality  of  6*4 
per  1,000  inhabitants.  They  number  506  or  28  more  than  in  the  June  quarter ;  for, 
although  the  fatal  cases  of  small-pox  were  much  less  than  in  that  period,  and  the  deaths 
from  whooping-cough  not  quite  equal  to  one- half  of  the  number  then  registered, 
diarrhoea  (always  prevalent  in  the  September  quarter  of  the  year),  proved  much  more 
fatal  than  usual.

in  the  preceding  six  months,  the  disease  was  most  fatal  on  the  south  side  of  the  city,  thus, 
of  the  165  deaths,  23  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City  District,  123  to  the  South  Ci^, 
7  to  Rathmines,  2  to  Denny  brook  District,  and  10  were  of  persons  admitted  bto

In  the  preceding  three  months  there  were  112  deaths  from  whoopinff-cough ;  kst 
quarter  the  deaths  from  this  cause  fell  to  51,  but  this  number  is  considerably  over 
the  average  for  the  third  quarter,  and  is  31  in  excess  of  the  deaths  from  whooping-cough 
in  the  September  quarter  of  1877.

they  amounted  to  162  being  22  over  the  averageforthe  third  quarter  of  the  tenyeafli 
1868-77.  The  deaths  under  this  heading  form  21  per  cent,  of  the  mortality  from  all  causes 
amongst  children  under  5  years  of  age. 

Deaths  from  diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs  also,  were  in  excess  of  the  average

[No.  42. 


General  Regixter  Office,  Charlenumt  Route, 
Dublin,  2l8t  October,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dnhlin  Renstration  Distriot  during  the  week  ending  19th 
October,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortuity  of  24*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  bj 
^e  Census  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  firom 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  23*8  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
20*0  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow,  21*2 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  15*7. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  we^  amounted  to 
165^93  boys  and  72  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  149—78  males  and  71  females.  The 
emerage  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — ^births,  153,  and 
deaths,  135. 

The  general' death-rate  is  lower  than  in  the  week  ended  12th  instant,  but  tbedecHne  in  the 
mortality  from  zymotic  diseases  noted  in  that  week  has  not  continued,  41  deaths  from 
these  causes  having  been  registered,  being  6  over  the  average  number  for  the  corresponding 
week  of  the  last  ten  years.  They  comprise  10  from  fever  (4  t3rphus,  5  typhoid  or  enteric, 
and  1  simple  continued  fever),  9  from  small-pox,  8  from  scarlet  fever,  7  from  diarrhoea, 
3  from  whooping-cough,  1  from  measles,  &c. 

With  the  exception  of  one  case  admitted  into  hospital  from  without  tbe  Dublin  Registration 
area,  all  the  deaths  from  small-pox  are  chargeable  to  the  South  City  Districts.  Twenty-one 
new  cases  of  this  disease  were  admitted  into  the  Dublin  Hospitals  during  the  week,  being 
8  less  than  in  the  preceding  week ;  20  patients  were  discharged,  8  died,  and  69  remained 
imder  treatment  on  Saturday  last,  being  7  under  the  number  on  Saturday  the  12th*instant. 

Table  I. — ^The  Numbbr  of  Cases  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases  treated,  during  the 
Week  ended  Saturday,  19th  October,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals : — ^Cork- 
street,  Sir  P.  Dun*s,  the  Hardwicke,  the  Meath,  and  Dr.  Steevens^ ;  and  in  the  Small-Pox

[No.  43. 


General  Register  Office^  Charlemont  Hwue^ 
Dublin,  2%th  October,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Reffistration  District  during  the  week  ending  26th 
October,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortidity  of  23*5  in  every  1 ,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  23*0  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
21-0  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow,  20*9 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  18*5. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to    ' 
147—76   boys  and   fl  girls, — and  the  deaths    to  142—70  males   and  72  females.     The 
average  numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  150,  and 
deatlu,  136.  ^ 

Thirty-eight  deaths,  21  of  which  were  of  children  under  5  years  of  age,  resulted  firom 
zymotic  diseases,  being  3  under  the  number  in  the  preceding  week,  but  8  over  the  ayerage 
for  the  43rd  week  of  the  last  ten  years.  They  comprise  8  from  scarlet  fever — making  8 1 
deaths  from  that  disease  in  the  last  five  weeks—S  from  snall-pox,  7  from  fever  (1  typhus,  5 
typhoid  or  enteric,  and  1  simple  continued  fever),  7  from  diarrhoea,  5  from  whooping-cough, 
2  irom  croup,  &c. 

The  deatns  from  small  p'^x-— 2  of  which  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City  and  3  to  the 
South  City  Districts — are  4  less  than  in  the  preceding  week.  Twenty-  one  new  cases  of  this 
disease  were  admitted  into  the  Dublin  Hospitals  during  the  week,  being  similar  to  the

remarks : — 

'*  At  the  beginning  of  this  week,  the  wcathci  underwent  a  complete  change  from  the  fine  mild  period 
experienced  previously.    Sunday  indeed  was  warm  and  pleasant,  but  a  steady  fall  of  the  barometer  indi- 
cated the  approach  of  an  atmospherical  disturbance  from  the  Atlantic.     Towards  evening  some  showers 
fell.    At  8  A.M.  of  Iklonday  a  large  depression  had  its  centre  near  the  Hebrides,  while  another  dbturbance 
was  fast  approaching  the  S.W.  of  Ireland.     Rain  fell  in  considerable  quantities  in  Dublin  between  9  a.m. 
and  3  p.m.,  when  the  wind  veered  to  W.K.W  with  a  rapid  fall  of  teinperature.     By  9p.m.  the  thermoiarter 
had  fallen  to  44*2^,  having  been  as  high  as  60*6®  on  the  afternoon  of  the  previous  day  (Sunday).    The 
Spell  of  cold  weather  thus  ushered  in  continued  to  the  end  of  the  week,  the  mean  temperature  of  which  was 
almost  8°  below  that  of  tlie  preceding  week.     Atmospherical  pressure  remained  extremely  low  over  Korth- 
Westem  Europe  from  Monday,  and  numerous  secoudary  oi  sul)8ldia^^'  depressions  crossed  the  British  lAm

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
159—81  boys  and  78  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  144—80  males  and  64  females.  The

Thirty-eight  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  were  registered,  bein?  similar  to  the  number  in 
the  preceding  week,  but  6  over  the  average  for  the  44th  week  of  the  last  ten  years.  The 
deatns  from  these  causes,  24  of  which  were  of  children  under  5  years  of  age,  comprise  8

Three  of  the  deaths  from  small-pox  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City  Districts,  and  3  to 
the  South  City.  Only  1 1  new  cases  of  this  disease  were  admitted  into  the  Dublin  Hospitals 
during  the  week,  being  10  less  than  in  the  preceding  week,  and  much  lower  than  in  any 
other  week  for  some  months  past ;  18  patients  were  discharged  during  the  week,  6  died,  and

[No.  45. 


General  Register  Office,  Ckarlemont  Hmue^ 
Dublin^  llth  J^ovember,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  during  the  week  ending  9th 
KoTember,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  25*1  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  hf 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  fit)m 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  24*5  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
23*2  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow,  24*8 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  23*6. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births'  registered  durin^r  the  week  amounted  to 
200—102  boys  and  98  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  152—78  males  and  74  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  154,  and  deaths,  142. 

It  is  to  be  regretted  thlit  as  regards  9  of  12  deaths  in  the  South  Dublin  Union  Workhouse 
last  week  no  information  has  been  afforded  as  to  the  cause  of  death,  the  entry  in  each  case 
being,  "unknown." 

The  registered  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  are  5  under  the  average  for  the  corresponding 
week  of  the  last  ten  years,  and  10  less  than  in  the  week  ended  2nd  instant ;  they  number  28, 
of  which  12  were  from  fever  (4  typhus,  5  t}^hoid,  and  3  simple  continued  fever),  5  from 
scarlet  fever,  3  each  from  measles  and  whooping-cough,  and  2  each  from  small-pox  and  croup. 

From  the  Hospital  Returns,  all  of  which  are  now  furnished  in  a  complete  form,  it  appears 
that  there  were  59  cases  of  typhoid  fever,  28  of  tj-phus,  and  55  of  small-pox,  under  treatment 
in  the  principal  Dublin  Hospitals  on  Saturday  last.  Compared  with  the  close  of  the  preceding 
week,  typhoid  fever  shows  a  slight  decline ;  typhus  is  stationary,  while  small-pox  exhibits  an  in- 
crease, 30  new  cases  having  been  admitted  during  the  week,  as  against  11  in  the  preceding  week. 
However,  the  number  of  small-pox  patients  under  treatment  compares  favourably  with  the 
number  in  hospital  at  the  close  of  any  week  during  the  epidemic,  except  that  ended  2nd  instant. 

Tabljb  L^The  Number  of  Cases  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases  treated,,  during  the 
Week  ended  Saturday,  9th  November,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals  : Cork- 
street,  Sir  P.  Dun's,  the  Hardwick©,  the  Whitworth,  the  Mater  Misericordiee,  the  Meath, 
and  Dr.  Steevens' ;  and  in  the  Small-Fox  Hospital  in  connexion  with  the  South  Dublin 
Union  Workhouse.

The  observer  at  Dublin  City  for  the  Meteorological  Office,  London  (Dr.  J.  W.  Moore), 
remarks  :— 

"  The  cold  weather  which  set  in  on  Octolcr  21st  persisted  throughout  this  week.     It  was  caused  by  a 

somewhat  unusual  distribution  of  atmospherical  pressure,  particularly  at  this  season  of  the  year — namely, 

the  existence  of  an  area  of  low  pressure  over  Scandinavia  and  the  Baltic,  while  the  barometer  stood  high 

over  the  Atlantic  to  the  S.W.  of  Ireland.     Several  siibidiary  depressions,  or  bourrasques,  travelled  in  a 

south-easterly  direction  across  Great  Britain  and  the  North  Sea,  causing  N.W.  gales  and  cold,  broken 

weather,  with  showers  cf  sleety  rain  and  hail  in  many  places.     In  Dublin  rather  heavy  showers  of  jain 

and  hail  fell  on  Monday  evening.     On  Thursday  ahio,  after  a  frosty  night,  a  disturbance  advanced  from 

N.  W.,  and  caused  heavy  showers  towards  nightfall.     A  very  perfect  lunar  halo  was  seen  at  9  pjm.    The 

centre  of  this  bounasqne  was  over  North  Wales  at  ft  k.in.  ol  Ytv^vj,  mv^  «.  i«^\^  x\s»  of  tha  baromefr

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  16th 
Kovember,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  30*9  in  every  1,000  of  the  population^  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  29*1  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death -rare  was 
84*3  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population  ;  in  Glasgow,  25*8;  and  in  Edinburgh,  16*8. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  durine  the  week  amounted  to 
154 — 77  boys  and  77  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  187—91  males  and  96  females.  The  average

[No.  46. 


General  Register  Office,  Charlemont  Huuse, 
Dublin,  ISth  November,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  during  the  week  ending  16th 
November,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  30*9  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localitieB  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  29-1  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death-rare  was 
S4'3  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow,  25*8 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  16*8. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  durinsr  the  week  amounted  to 
164 — 77  boys  and  77  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  187—91  males  and  96  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  157,  and  deaths,  161. 

Deaths  from  zymotic  diseases,  which  in  the  preceding  five  weeks  were  respectively  20,  41, 
38,  38,  and  28,  rose  again  last  week  to  41,  of  which  11  were  caused  by  fever  (2  typhus, 
6  t3rphoid  or  enteric,  and  4  simple  continued  fever),  1  i  by  smalUpox,  6  by  scarlet  fever,  4  by 
whooping-cough,  2  by  measles,  &c.  The  average  number  of  deaths  from  diseases  of  this 
class  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  was  38. 

The  deaths  from  small-pox  registered  last  week  are  in  excess  of  the  number  for  some  weeks 
previous ;  4  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City  and  7  to  the  South  City  Districts.  There  were  62 
smalUpox  patients  under  treatment  in  the  Dublin  Hospitals  on  Saturday  last,*  being  7  more  than 
on  Saturday,  9th  instant,  but  the  number  of  new  cases  (26)  of  this  disease  admitted  during  the 
week  is  somewhat  less  than  in  the  preceding  week.  Twenty-eight  cases  of  typhus,  and  47  of 
typhoid  or  enteric  fever,  were  under  treatment  in  the  principal  hospitals  on  Saturday  last ; 
at  the  dose  of  the  previous  week,  the  nimibers  were — typhus  28,  typhoid  59. 

Tabub  L— The  Number  of  Cases  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases  treated,  during  the 
Week  ended  Saturday,  16th  November,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals  : — Cork- 
street,  Sir  P.  Dun*s,  the  Hardwicke,  the  Whitworth,  the  Mater  Misericordise,  the  Meath, 
and  Dr.  Steevens^ ;  and  in  the  Small-Fox  Hospital  in  connexion  with  the  South  Dublin

Gerural  Register  Office,  Charlemont  Htnuff 
Dvhlin,  25th  November,  1878. 

The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Re^stration  District  daring  the  week  ending  23rd 
Norember,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  35*2  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  33*9  per  1,000.  In  London  the  death -rare  was 
22*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in  Glasgow,  28*9 ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  22*7. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  birlhs  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
149—72  boys  and  77  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  213— 99  males  and  114  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  correspondintr  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  162,  and  deaths,  160. 

Twenty-eight  deaths  in  the  South  Dublin  Union  Workhouse  were  registered  during  the  week : 
in  23  instances  the  '*  dhuse  of  death''  communicated  to  the  District  licglstrar  was  certified  by 
the  medical  attendants ;  in  2  cases  the  cause  of  death  was  given  by  the  informant,  but  not 
renfied  by  medical  certificate,  and  in  3  instances  the  entry  is  *^  unknown,  uncertified.** 

Zymotic  diseases  caused  38  deaths,  being  3  less  than  in  the  preceding  week,  but  3  over 
the  average  for  the  47th  week  of  the  last  ten  years;  they  include  10  from  fever  (4  typhus, 
5  typhoid  or  enteric  fever,  and  1  simple  continued  fever),  1 1  from  small-pox,  being  similar 
to  tne  number  from  that  cause  in  the  previous  week ;  6  from  scarlet  fever,  2  each  from 
whooping-cough  and  croup,  1  each  from  quinsy,  erysipelas,  diarrhoea,  &c. 

Three  of  the  deaths  from  small-pox  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City,  7  to  the  South  City, 
and  1  toRathmines.  The  hospital  returns  r&«[iecting  this  disease  are  not  favourable,  the  ad- 
missions (31)  showing  an  increase  on  the  number  in  recent  weeks,  and  64  cases  remaining  under 
treatment  on  Saturday  last  against  53  on  Saturday,  16th  instant,  lliere  has  been  a  decline 
in  the  number  of  t^'phus  cases  in  the  principal  hospitals,*  but  the  decrease  in  cases  of  typhoid 
fever  noted  in  the  preceding  week  has  not  continued,  the  number  of  patients  under  treatment 
on  Saturday  last  being  46,  or  2  more  than  on  Saturday,  16th  instant

Seven  children  died  from  convulsions. 

The  effects  of  the  cold  weather  which  has  characterized  the  past  four  weeks,  the  mean 
temperature  of  which  was  5  decrees  under  the  average  for  the  corresponding  period  of  the 
last  ten  years,  are  seen  in  the  increasing  mortality  from  diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs, 
deaths  from  these  causes  having  gradually  risen  from  21  in  the  week  ending  26th  ultimo  to 
57  in  the  week  now  closed.  Of  the  57  deaths  last  week  (which  are  21  over  the  average 
number  from  these  diseases  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  ten  years,  1868-77)  46  were 
attributed  to  bronchitis,  7  to  pneumonia  or  inflammation  of  the  lungs,  and  4  to  ^^  lung  disease^*'

The  deatliB  regiBiered  in  the  Dnblin  Reffistration  District  during  the  week  ending  dOth

the  Census  of  1871  ;  omittins  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  30*6  per^  1,000.  In  Glasgow  Uie  death-rate  was 
Si*7  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population  ;  and  in  Edinburgh,  19*6.* 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  Distiict  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
132^56  boys  and  76  girls,— and  the  deaths  to  189  —89  males  and  100  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  3rears  were — births,  164,  and  deaths,  161. 

Only  24  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  were  registered,  being  14  less  than  in  the  preceding 
week  and  8  under  the  averaco  for  the  48th  week  of  the  last  ten  years ;  they  include  5  each 
from  small-pox  and  scarlet  icTer,  4  from  diarrhoea,  2  each  from  measles  and  croup,  1  each 
from  whooping  coush,  typhus,  typhoid  fever,  &c.  In  each  of  the  preceding  six  weeks 
there  were  5  deaths  mm  typhoid  fever  recorded. 

The  deaths  from  small-pox— all  of  which  are  chargeable  to  the  South  City  districts 

are  6  less  than  in  the  preceding  week,  but  in  other  respects  the  hospital  returns  regarding 
this  disease  are  again  unfavourable,  51  new  cases  having  been  admitted  during  the  week 
against  31  in  the  previous  week,  and  86  patients  remaining  under  treatment  at  the  close  of 
the  week  against  65  on  Saturdny,  23rd  November.  There  has  been  but  little  change  in  the 
number  of  typhus  and  typhoid  fever  cases  in  the  principal  hospitals.

[No.  49. 


General  Register  Office,  Charlenumt  House, 
Dublin,  9th  JDeeember,  lb78. 

Hie  deaths  registered  in  the  Dablin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  7th 
December,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  37*2  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871 ;  omittins  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  36*2  per  1 ,000.  In  London  the  death-rate  was 
39-i*  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population  ;  in  Glasgow,  25*6 ;  and  in  Edinburgli,  22*2. 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  durinir  the  week  amounted  to 
1*61—82  boys  and  79  girbi, — and  the  deaths  to  225  —112  males  and  113  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  162,  and  deaths,  175. 

The  marked  excess  of  deatlis  last  week  over  the  average  for  the  corresponding  week  in 
recent  years  is  due  to  the  great  mortality  from  diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs.  The  week 
was  **  uniformly  cold,  with  alternate  frost  and  showers,"  and  the  deaths  from  the  diseases 
refeiTed  to  show  a  further  advance  upon  the  lar^e  number  of  fatal  cases  in  each  of  the  two 
preceding  weeks  ;  they  comprise  70  from  bronchitis,  1 4  from  pneumonia  or  inflammation  oi 
the  lungs,  and  5  from  lung  disease  unspecified,  these  89  deaths  being  48  over  the  average 
number  from  diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs  in  the  49th  week  of  the  last  ten  years. 

Thirty  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  were  registered,  being  6  more  than  in  the  preceding 
week,  but  3  under  the  average  for  the  49th  week.  Nearly  one-half  (13)  of  the  deaths  in 
this  class  were  from  small-pox,  which  has  now  been  prevalent  in  Dublin  with  varying  severity 
for  twelve  months ;  5  were  from  fever  (I  t^-phus,  3  typhoid  or  enteric,  and  I  simple  continued 
fever)  3  each  from  scarlet  fever  and  diarrhoea,  and  2  each  from  quinsy  and  whooping- 
cough. 

The  hospital  returns  show  that  49  new  cases  of  small-pox  were  admitted  during  the  week, 
being  2  less  than  in  the  preceding  week.  There  has  been  a  slight  decrease  in  the  number  of 
typhus  cases  under  treatment,  and  a  corresponding  increase  in  the  cases  of  typhoid  or 
enteric  fever. 

Table  I. — The  Numbeb  of  Cases  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases  treated,  during  the 
Week  ended  Saturday,  7th  December,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals  : — Cork- 
street,  Sir  P.  Dun's,  the  Hardwicke,  theWhitworth,  the  Muter  Misericordia;,  the  Meath,  and

General  Register  Office,  Charlemont  ffousef 
Dublin,  Uth  December,  1878. 

^Hie  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  aiding  14th 
December^  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  38*0  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871 ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  36*7  per  1,000.  In  Lonoon  the  death-rate  was 
24 '8  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population.* 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
170—91  boys  and  79  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  230  —116  males  and  114  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  155,  and  deaths,  173. 

Diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs  were  again  very  fatal,  the  deaths  from  these  causes  being 
far  beyond  the  average  ;  they  amount  to  87,  of  which  66  were  ascribed  to  bronchitis,  13  to 
pneumonia  or  inflammation  of  the  lungs,  I  to  pleurisy,  and  7  to  lung  disease  unspecified :  the 
average  number  in  the  50th  week  of  the  last  ten  years  was  only  46.  The  mean  temperature 
for  the  week  was  3  degrees  Fahrenheit  below  freezing  point,  being  1 2  degrees  under  the 
average  mean  for  the  corresponding  week  of  the  ten  years  1868-77. 

Zymotic  diseases  caused  32  deaths,  being  2  over  the  number  in  the  week  ending  7th  instant, 
but  2  less  than  the  average  for  the  50th  week  ;  they  include  8  from  small-pox — a  decline  of 
5  compared  with  the  preceding  week — 8  from  fever  (3  typhus  and  5  typhoid  or  enteric  fever) 
5  from  whooping-cough,  2  each  from  measles,  scarlet  fever,  croup,  and  dysentery,  1  each  from 
diarrhoea,  erysipelas,  &e. 

The  number  of  new  cases  of  small-pox  admitted  into  the  Dublin  Hospitals  during  the  week 
was  4], being  8  less  than  in  the  preceding  week.  There  was  also  a  decline  in  the  new  cnse^ 
of  typhus  and  typhoid  fever,  the  respective  numbers  being  5  and  1 1  apiintst  7  and  1 5  in  the 
previous  week ;  but  the  returns  show  an  increase  in  scarlet  fever,  the  admissions  numbering 
10,  or  7  more  than  in  the  week  ended  7th  instant.

remarks : — 

"  The  intensity  of  tlic  cold  which  prevailed  during  this  week  may  be  learned  from  the  fact  that  the

the  lliermometer  scarcely  touched  82**  in  the  warmest  part  of  the  day.     A  slight  fall  of  snow  in  Dublin 

farly  on  Sunday  morning  ushered  in  a  severe  frost,  which  lasted  until  Friday.     Hea>-y  hail  fell  between 

4  and  5  p.m.  of  ^fondny,  and  next  day  a  snowstorm  prevailed  from  11  a.m.  to  2  p.m. — the  depth  of  snow

General  Regi»ter  Office^  Charlemont  ffimse, 
Dvhlin,  2Srd  December,  1878. 
The  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  2l8t 
December,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  41*0  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omitting  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  i^m 
localities  outside  the  district,  uie  rate  was  40*0  per  1,000.  In  Glasgow  the  death-rate  was 
38-S  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  populatior,  and  in  Edinburgh  24*1  per  1,000.* 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  registered  (during  the  week  amounted  to 
184->98  boys  and  86  girls,— «nd  the  deaths  to  248—106  males  and  142  females.  The  average 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  154,  and  deaths,  160. 

Deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  are  above  the  average,  but  affections  of  the  respiratory  organs 
continue  to  be  the  chief  causes  of  the  excessive  mortality,  the  deaths  from  these  diseases  again 
numbering  87,  being  more  than  double  the  average  number  (40)  in  the  51st  week  of  the  ten  years 
1868-77  ;  they  consist  of  69  from  bronchitis,  9  from  pneumonia  or  inflammation  of  the  lungs, 
1  from  asthma,  and  8  from  lung  disease  unspecified.  The  wean  temperature  for  the  week 
was  nearly  5  degrees  Fahrenheit  below  freezing  point,  being  1 3  degrees  lower  than  the  average 
for  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  jrears,  and  it  may  be  here  mentioned  that  in  addition 
to  32  deaths  amongst  the  old  from  bronchitis  and  other  diseases,  the  returns  include  25  deaths 
of  persons  aged  65  years  and  upwards,  which  were  ascribed  to  *^  infirmity  '^  or  **  old  age.*' 

Forty-six  deaths  from  zymotic  diseases  were  registered,  being  14  more  than  in  the 
preceding  week,  and  15  over  the  average  for  the  5l8t  week  ;  they  include  15  from  small-pox, 
12  from  fever  (SStv-phus,  7  typhoid  or  enteric  fever,  and  3  simple  continued  fever)  4  n*om 
scarlet  fever,  3  from  whooping-cough,  2  each  from  diphtheria  and  diarrhoea,  1  each  from 
measles,  croup,  erysipelas,  dysentery,  &c. 

The  deaths  from  small -pox  are  seven  over  the  number  in  the  previous  week,  and  the  Hospital 
returns  show  a  serious  increase  in  the  new  cases  of  that  disease,  the  number  admitted  during 
the  week  being  82  or  double  the  number  in  the  week  ending  the  l4th  instant.  The  new  cases 
of  scarlet  fever  admitted  into  the  principal  Hospitals  arc  similar  in  number  to  those  for  the 
preceding  week,  but  there  has  been  a  further  decline  in  cases  of  typhus  and  typhoid  fever.

General  Register  Offiu^  Charlemont  HtrnKy 
Dublin,  30th  December,  1878. 

The  deaUis  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  daring  the  week  ending  28th 
December,  1878,  represent  an  annual  mortality  of  38*5  in  every  1,000  of  the  population,  by 
the  Census  of  1871  ;  omittmg  the  deaths  of  persons  admitted  into  public  institutions  from 
localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  was  37*8  per  1,000.  In  London  Uie  death-rate  was 
27*7  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population.^ 

In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  the  births  regirtered  during  the  week  amounted  to 
148—72  boys  and  76  girls, — and  the  deaths  to  233—95  males  and  138  females.  The  ctverage 
numbers  in  the  corresponding  week  of  the  last  ten  years  were — births,  1 70,  and  deaths,  172. 

Deaths  from  diseases  of  the  respiratory  organs,  which  in  the  preceding  five  weeks  wore 
respectively  57,  73,  89,  87,  and  b7t  rose  last  week  to  96,  of  which  75  were  ascribed  to 
bronchitis,  12  to  pneumonia  or  inflammation  of  the  lungs,  and  9  to  lung  disease  unspecified. 
The  average  number  of  deaths  from  this  group  of  diseases  in  the  52nd  week  of  the  ten  yean 
1868-77  was  only  43. 

Zymotic  diseases  caused  41  deaths,  being  5  under  the  number  in  the  week  ending  the  2i8t 
instant,  but  11  over  the  average  for  the  52nd  week ;  they  comprise  19  from  small-pox — 4  of 
which  are  chargeable  to  the  North  City,  and  15  to  the  South  City  Districts,  4  irom  fever 
(2  typhus,  and  2  typhoid  or  enteric  fever)  5  from  measles,  4  from  scarlet  fever,  2  from  croup, 
1  each  from  whoopmg- cough,  dysentery,  diarrhoea,  &c 

The  deaths  from  small -pox  are  4  over  the  number  in  the  preceding  week,  hut  the  Hospital 
returns  regarding  new  cases  of  this  disease  are  comparatively  favourable,  the  admissions  for 
the  week  bein^  only  48  against  82  in  the  week  ending  the  21st  instant.  The  new  cases  of 
typhus  and  typhoid  fever  admitted  into  the  principal  Dublin  Hospitals  exceed  the  low  numbsrs 
for  the  preceding  week  :  the  increase  in  typhoid  cases  being  from  5  to  15 ;  the  scarlet  fever 
eases  are  less  than  in  that  week. 

Tabub  L — ^The  Number  of  Cases  of  the  undermentioned  Diseases  treated,  durinff  the 
Week  ended  Saturday,  28th  December,  1878,  in  the  following  Dublin  Hospitals  : Cork-

General  Register  Office, 
Ckarlemant  ffouse,  Dublin,  lOth  January,  1879. 

BirOis. — In  the  Dublin  Registration  District  (with  an  area  of  10^050  statute  acres, 
haYing  a  population  ot  314^666)^  the  number  of  births  registered  during  the  quarter 
ended  on  Saturday,  28th  December,  1878,  amounted  to  2,115 — 1,084  boys  and  1,031 
girls — being  equal  to  an  annual  ratio  of  1  in  37*2,  or  26*9  in  every  1,000  of  the  population. 

The  number  of  births  registered  in  the  City  was  1,736,  or  28*3  in  every  1,000  of  the 
population ;  and  in  the  suburbs  of  Rathmines,  Donnybrook,  Blackrock,  and  Kings- 
town,  379,  or  only  21*9  in  every  1,000  of  the  population. 

There  were  registered  in  London  daring  the  same  period  31,702  births — ^being 
equal  to  an  annual  birth-rate  of  35*4  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population ;  in 
Glasgow  there  were  registered  4,713,  being  equal  to  33*3  per  1,000;  and  in  Edinburgh 
1,751, — a  number  affording  an  annual  birth-rate  of  31*5  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated 
population. 

]>eatiis— »The  number  of  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  Registration  District  during 
the  quarter  amounted  to  2,421 — 1,163  males  and  1,258  females — affording  an  annual 
ratio  of  1  in  32*5,  or  30*8  in  every  1,000  of  the  population  ;  the  average  number  in 
the  fourth  quarter  of  the  ten  years  1868-77  was  1,978,  equivalent  to  an  annual  mortality 
of  25*2  per  1,000  persons.  Omitting  the  deaths  (70)  of  persons  admitted  into  Public 
Institutions  from  localities  outside  the  district,  the  rate  for  last  quarter  was  29*9 
per  1,000. 

The  number  of  deaths  of  inhabitants*  of  that  portion  of  the  City  north  of  the  Liffey 
registered  last  quarter  wi^  813,  affording  an  annual  mortality  of  30*1  in  every  1,000 
of  the  population;  and  the  number  in  that  portion  south  of  the  river  was  1,188,  or 
34*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  population.  In  the  suburbs  of  Rathmines,  Donnybrook, 
Blackrock,  and  Kingstown,  the  number  of  deaths  registered  was  350,  being  equal  to  an 
annual  death-rate  of  20*2  in  every  1,000  of  the  population. 

The  number  of  deaths  registered  in  London  during  the  same  period  was  21,147— a 
number  equal  to  an  annual  mortality  of  23*6  in  every  1,000  of  the  inhabitants;  in 

*  Since  ih«  beginning  of  July,  1C76,  deaths  in  Pablic  Institutions  in  *  the  Dublin  Registration  District.*  baTe

the  iereial  Dahlia  Diitrieta  in  thif  SoouiMury  haTO  been  calculated  on  the  mortalitj  for  tho  respectivo 
dirtricti  M  eoRtctid. 


534  Quarterly  Sumnary  of  Births  and  Deaths  in 

Glasf^ow  the  number  was  3,696,  €qual  to  26'1  in  every  1,000 ;  and  in  Edinburgh  1,104, 
affording  an  annual  death-rate  of  19-9  in  every  1,000  of  the  estimated  population. 

PMic  Institutions. — ^Of  the  2,421  deaths  registered  in  the  Dublin  District  during 
the  quarter,  389  occurred  in  the  various  hospitals,  prisons,  and  lunatic  asylums ;  173  in 
the  North  Dublin  Union  Workhouse,  and  231  in  the  South  Dublin  Union  Workhouse ; 
making  a  total  for  public  institutions  of  793,  or  33  per  cent  of  the  total  deaths. 

Diseases. — Dublin  Registration  DistricU — ^The  number  of  deaths  from  zymotic  dis- 
eases registered  during  the  quarter  was  456,  being  136  under  the  number  in  the 
preceding  three  months,  but  24  over  the  average  for  the  fourth  quarter  of  the  ten 
years  1868-77.  Omitting  9  deaths  of  hospital  patients  admitted  from  without  the 
Dublin  Registration  area,  the  seven  principal  diseases  of  this  nature  caused  376  deaths, 
a  number  equal  to  an  annual  rate  ot  4*8  per  1,000  persons.  More  than  50  per  cent 
of  the  total  deaths  in  the  zymotic  class  were  caused  by  the  three  diseases  small-pox, 
fever,  and  scarlatina. 

The  deaths  from  small-pox  numbered  116,  being  49  less  than  in  the  previous  three 
months,  and  66  under  the  fatal  caf^cs  in  the  June  quarter.  Of  these  116  deaths  26 
were  registered  in  the  first  four  weeks  of  the  quarter,  30  in  the  second  four,  and  60  in 
the  remaining  five  weeks,  showing  that  although  the  total  number  for  the  three  months 
was  less  than  in  either  of  the  two  preceding  quarters,  still,  unfortunately,  the  gradual 
diiuiuiition  of  the  disease  was  checked  towards  the  close  of  the  year.  As  has  been 
the  case  all  through  the  epidemic,  by  far  the  greater  part  of  the  mortality  occurred  in 
the  South  Oily  Districts,  the  distribution  of  the  deaths  last  quarter  being  21  in  the 
North  City  Districts,  87  in  the  South  City,  and  4  in  Rathmines,  the  remaining  4 
deaths  being  hospital  cases  admitted  from  without  the  Dublin  Registration  area.  No 
deaths  from  small-pox  were  recorded  in  Donnybrook,  Blackrock,  or  Kingstown  Districts. 

The  returns  received  from  the  various  Dublin  Hospitals  show  that  at  the  close  of  the 
September  quarter  there  were  74  small*pox  patients  under  treatment;  daring  the 
quarter  now  ended,  466  new  cases  wore  admitted  (a  decline  of  126  compared  with  the 
preceding  three  months),  304  patients  were  discharged,  and  114  died,  leaving  122 
in  hospital  on  Saturday,  28th  December.  The  highest  weekly  number  of  new  cases 
admitted  during  last  quarter  was  82  in  the  week  ending  21st  December,  and  the 
lowest  1 1  in  that  ending  2ud  November ;  48  cases  were  admitted  in  the  last  week. 

The  deaths  from  fever  registered  during  the  quarter  amounted  to  106,  viz, : — 33 
from  typhus,  56  from  typhoid  or  enteric,  and  17  from  simple  continued  fever.  The 
average  number  of  deaths  from  fever  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  the  ten  years  1868-77 
was  only  78. 

Scarlatina  caused  67  deaths,  diarrhoea  40,  whooping-cough  36,  measles  16,  and 
diphtheria  4. 

Among  the  remaining  deaths  from  diseases  in  the  zymotic  class  are  23  from  croup, 
6  from  dysentery,  4  from  erysipelas,  3  from  quinsy,  A'c. 

The  greater  part  of  the  excess  in  the  total  mortality  last  quarter  compared  with  tlio 
corresponding  period  in  previous  years  is  due  to  the  remarkable  prevalence  of  diseases 
of  the  respiratory  organs  in  the  later  weeks  of  the  quarter,  which  had  the  effect  of 
raising  the  deaths  from  these  causes  to  686  or  28*3  per  cent  of  the  total,  this  number 
being  291  over  the  average  mortality  from  these  diseases  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  the 
ten  years  1868-77.     The  deaths  in  this  group  consist  of  513  from  bronchitis,  101  from 

fmeumonia  or  inflammation  of  the  luns^s,  2  from  pleurisy,  ]  from  asthma,  and  69  from 
ung  disease  unspecified. 

There  were  142  deaths  of  children  ascribed  to  convulsions,  being  23  per  cent,  of  the 
deaths  from  all  causes  amongst  children  under  five  years  of  age. 

Heart  disease  proved  fatal  in  114  instances,  aneurisui  in  8,  and  pericarditis  or 
inflamn.ation  of  the  heart's  covering  in  2. 

Fifty  deaths  Were  attributed  to  paralysis,  29  to  apoplexy,  15  to  cephalitis  or  inflani> 
mation  of  the  brain  and  its  membranes,  3  to  insanity,  11  to  epilepsy,  29  to  braiu 
disease  unspecified;  2  to  hepatitis  or  inflammation  of  the  livor,  3  to  jaundice,  27  to 
liver  disease  unspecified  ;  1  to  spleen  disease;  12  to  nophria  or  Bright'a  disease,  3  to 
cvfc'titis  or  inflammation  of  the  bladder,  2  ca^'h  to  nephritis  and  diabetes,  1  to  stone
