by the number of births, as I did before 1881, and have to take
the number of houses assessed to the rates as a guide to a
certain extent, and believe that the estimated population is
below rather than above the true number. It will be noticed
also that the marriages have not increased in proportion to
population, having been in 1884 fewer than in any year since
1876 (exception, 1880), when the number was 8 less than in
1884. The density of population goes on increasing, being
now 54'7 per acre against 369 in 1875. This is a matter of
grave sanitary import, as the death.rate as a rule is found to
correspond more closely with this than almost any other known
permanent factor of mortality.
