the number of deaths in the eastern division between birth and 10, is smaller than in any other locality which has fallen under my observation. Taking the results of the eastern division (founded upon details collected and calculated by myself from the parish registers of a population of 7883, distributed over an area of 38½ square miles) and comparing them with the result for all England, we obtain the following table of proportional deaths, assuming 100 to die in England between the respective undermentioned ages:—
| TABLE 6. | ||||
| Deaths in all England. | Proportional deaths in the Eastern Division. | |||
| Birth to 10 | 100 | 72 | ||
| 10 to 20 | 100 | 106 | ||
| 20 to 30 | 100 | 118 | ||
| 30 to 40 | 100 | 99 | ||
| 40 to 50 | 100 | 88 | ||
| 50 to 60 | 100 | 106 | ||
| 60 to 70 | 100 | 113 | ||
| 70 to 80 | 100 | 119 | ||
| 80 to 90 | 100 | 171 | ||
| 90 to 100 | 100 | 230 | ||
| 100 upwards | 100 | 1050 | ||
The number of deaths in the population of the eastern division, between birth and 10, is to the number in all England as 72 to 100; from 10 to 20, where 100 die in all England, 106 die in the eastern division; from 20 to 30, the mortality in the eastern division is 1-8th more than in all England; after the age of 30, the deaths are again less in the eastern division than in England at large up to the age of 50; and the number of persons living to the more advanced ages, in the eastern division goes on increasing so that where 100 are buried at Carlisle between, 80 and 90, 171 will be buried in this division;
