By reference to the above report of the Board of
Health, it will be perreired that cnu hundred and
fifty-eight new cases, aud fifty-tire deaths, by cholera,
bare occurred in this city within the twenty.four
bourn preceding that at which it ??? made, vie twelve
o'clock. How rnanv, in addition hare occurred, we :
cannot tell, and will not be able to d> no uutil the j
' City Inspector hand* in hie weekly rep >rt Kver riuce
the epidemic broke out among us. there has been
a marked variance between the number of ca?es reported
by the Board ot Health and thiM? certified to
by the City Inspector, the latter, in some oases, reaching
seventy-five and eighty per c<ut iu<>te than the .
Other. This arises from the fact that u great mauy of {
our physicians do not make any returns at all, from
some reason or other?perhaps on account of having
ao much to attend to. As an instance ot the disparity
1 between the two returns, we have oompiled the follow- ,
lng table, showing the number of deaths, each week,
slnee the cholera commenced, as reported by the Board
of Health, and the auiuber, each week, reported by the
City Inspector

Now, before a body can be interred, a certificate of
ths cause of death must be delivered to the City Inspector,
who. thereupon, delivers a permit. It Is. therefor#,
clear, that all the cases of death, by cholera, are
est reported to the Bosrd of Health.
As S great many people are comparing the ravages of
tha cholera, this year, with those of the years 1832. and
1834, we publish the following table, which shows the
number of dtalhs, in the respective years, for eight
weeks after the epidemic broke out: ?
1882. 1884. 1849.

Sixth do 281 197 286
Seventh do 222 93 317
Light h do 178 68 484
Total 2681 895 1547
Bat before any conclusion is arrived at, or any opi-nion
formed, it must be taken into consideration that
there U ? widu difference Id the Dumber ol iuhsbitante
of New York Id the year 1840. to whet it contained Id
either 1834 or 1832. The following table will explain
thil aatlsfWr'orily:?
2882, Population .. .226 000 Deaths, eight weeks,. .2.801
1884, " ...206.000 " ' .. SOS
1840, u .. .426.000 " " . .1,647
According to the above table the epidemic has, thus
hr at all event*, not been near so fatal In Its effeete as
It was In 1832. In that year we had a population of two
hundred and twenty-flee thousand, and the number of
deaths for the first eight weeks was 2.801; whereas In
1840, with a population of 426 000, the deaths, for the
same period, hare been only 1.647. If the disease had
heen as bad this year as It was In 1832, the number o
deaths, Instead of being only 1.647, would, in proportion
to the increase of population, base reached, during the
Ight weeks just elapsed, the eery large number ol 6.380
There Is some consolation In this, ludeud. we do not
wee how It could be othirwi*e In 1832. the city was
without any system of drainage or sewerage; but since
then, many miles In leugtb or sewers have been constructed
at great espcuse and coiuparatieely speaking,
hut very little surface aateresists at the present time
In the elty. Rut It may b? urged, that thn cases of
death by diarrhea cholera morbus, cholera infantum,
and dysentery, which are every week reported by the
City Inspector. ought to be added to the cholera
oavee. This does not follow, because they are not
included in the returns ef 1831 and 1834, haelng
been then, as tbey are this year, put under separate
heads However, we give the aoneied table, showing
the nunbvr of deaths that have taken place this year
from those causes, so as to place every informatioa on
the subject b< fore the public believing that It It better
to give tbeni the true state of things than to adopt
any concealment In the usttir
