THE following letter from the Surgeon to the Board of Health, JOSEPH BIRD, is published for general information.
FRED. A. CARRINGTON,
Superintendent.
New Plymouth, 22nd March, 1875.
SIR,—I have the privilege of reporting to your Honor upon the general sanitary condition of New Plymouth during the past year.
Two meetings of the Board of Health have been held during the year; one in the month of March, 1874, and the last during the present month.
I have made inspections at different times of suspected neighborhoods in the town, and the dangers which were not removed at my own representations and remonstrances, were laid before the Board on one or other of the meetings referred to, and have been promptly remedied, as far as at present practicable. On the whole, the year has been a very healthy one. We have had no contagious epidemics. The amount of illness and deaths has been greater during the last two months, but not more so than might reasonably be expected in an unusually hot and dry season.
The prevalent complaints since the hot weather set in, have been dysentery, diarrhoea, and stomach and bilious fevers, children being the most generally affected. The deaths, I consider, have been few, compared with the numbers attacked. In no instance has the sickness been traceable to any local condition, the disease occurring alike in the most airy and healthy localities, and in the most crowded parts of the town.
These most prevalent complaints, since the hot weather set in, may reasonably be attributed to the excessive action of the skin, and the morbid sympathy of the liver, and the consequent acrid biliary secretions, and febrile and irritable condition of the lining mucous membrane of the stomach and bowels, hence the bilious fever, dysentery, diarrhoea, and gastro-enteritis, all links in the same chain of morbid symptoms.
The Board of Health has no power to enforce habits of personal cleanliness, so important in the preservation of health, and the prevention of contagion, as clean premises; but the Board
