Developmental Diseases.—10 children under 5 years died from debility.
Violent Deaths.—5 were accidental, including the death of a child at Dunedin from burns, and a case of accidental poisoning at Wellington.

The subjoined table shows the mortality for the last two months at each of these four boroughs from six principal zymotic diseases of the miasmatic order, and also the deaths from certain inflammatory diseases of the lungs. These causes of death have been distinguished from the others of the classes to which they belong, as being the most important special diseases which give rise to sudden increases in the death-rates of towns, and the prevalence of which is closely connected with sanitary condition and climatic influence of the season on health.
