Local Diseases also were slightly less fatal in May, the number of deaths having been 49 in April and 47 in May. Of these, diseases of the nervous system and of the digestive system proved more fatal, the deaths having been, of the former, 8 in April, against 12 in May, and of the latter 7 in April, against 14 in May; but diseases of the respiratory system caused only 10 deaths in May, against 15 in April.

Violent Deaths.—There were 3 of these deaths in May, against 6 in April.

The subjoined table shows the mortality for the last two months at each of these four boroughs from six principal specific febrile or zymotic diseases, 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.
