An Analysis of the Tltal Statistics cf
Wilmington for 1879. ,
Editor ok the Daily Review,
Dear Sir: .
In the prespnt national movement ia
sanitary art ami science, the greatest diffi
culty which has confronted the leaders
in the movement is the ccrrect collection
of vital statistics. The organization of
bureaux for the management of such
registration cf births, deaths, and mar
riagea as could be relied upon to deduco
facts from as to tha ratio of deaths, and
the causes of death, has puzzled, sanitari
?ans in this State no little. Wilmington
is the only city in the State where such
records are kpt withacca acy. -Certainly
it is from this city that the State Boari
o;' Health gets a full and classified return.
j It wi:i.not be out f place therefore to
explain, that there is a compulsory law,
requiring that evory person applying for
a' permit' for bnrial roust present the
cert'ficate of the last -attending doctor or
Diust get some doctor to testify tho cause
ot'de-tth Dubt-mor em. These certificate!
of death are furnished in blank by the
State Board, and are directed to the Su
perintendent (;f Health of New Hanover
county. The Secretary of the cemetery
cjmpauy upon this certificate issurs his
permit, aud records the dh-ease. At the
end of the tut-nth the Superintendent of
Health coliates an 1 classifies the deaths
by the certificates,, the matter being scru
tinized carefully while the cir'cumstauces
are fresh. The Superintendent of Health,
having charge of the pauper sick of the
city and county, is personally cognizant
ot deaths among the paupers, as it is rare
that a death takes place without be
called upon to render efficial duty before
or after. His 'report, therefore, besides
beitig cffi-jial is carefully and correctly
nrenared.
1 present a statement of disease, alpha
beticailv. shorn as tar as possioieoi tecnni
calities, lor the consideration of the, public
and will attempt to explain what it
means. My desire is not to defend the
ratio of mortality, but to point out the
causes and remedies as far as known. In
doing so some unpleasant .things must be
said. It is our duty, however, to need
unpleasant things, for a community that
is convinced of its very great guilt in
allowing insanitary wrong to go unrem
edied, t is then in a condition to reform.
I believs whatl have to say will demon
strata that we are very mu3a in need o
reformation, although I trust that our
neighbor of Raleigh, Charlotte and else
where will not gather any comfort irom
our disclosures until they have system
atically judged of their condition by the
actual careful record oi statistics:

Let me first consider the j reventable
diseases in the common acceptation of tb
term. There were 25 deaths from uaalas
rial fevers, about one-fourth of the total
deaths, or little more tnan 7 in a tbous
and, these nearly equally divided between
the white and colored people. Malarial
fevers are well known as the indigenous
diseases most dreaded by strangers, and
against which the Lite Insurance Com
panies doing business on the ckmth At
lantic Coast make a special provi.ion by
charging an extra premium.
Typhoid fever, diphtheria, septicemia,
whooping cough, may be next men
tioned as pre eatable diseases Of typhoid
fever 11 cases have occurred, ten of
which were among the! colored people.
This is about 1J per one! thousand of the
inhabitants, a mortality far less than most
towns can show among the whites and not
large among the negroes. Of septicoeaiia
there were three cases, but the history of
them is not known, and therefore it can
not be stated whether these occurred from
extiinsic causes or not. mere was one
death from whooping cough, although
there was a wide-spread ep.demlo of a
mild character. ; Oi di htheria what shall
w3 say? . It is put dewn as a preventable
disease by most- sanitarians, but. unfortu
nately the art of prevention is seldom suc
cessful, because of the sloverly way in
which it is enforced in households. There
were 11 deaths, white, and 4 deaths, color
ed,' from this cause, leas than one per
thousand. In this item I observe the ex
cess ia on the part of tha whites, whereas
we would look for the reverse, when we
consider the general insanitary surround
ings about the colored people.
Phthisis pulmonalii (consumption was
far in excess of the mortality from any
other cause there bein? 15 white and 2 a 'rigid care of h ouseholders to their prem
colore.1 deaths. Dr. Bell, in commenting ises. If these diseases cannot ba stamp-
on the prevalence of this disease in his crit
icism of our sanitary condition last year,
spoke ol it as preventable. Quoting l)r
Bowditch, of Boston, he declared that
drainage was needed to prevent it. liut
the reason is more aomplex,as we will try
to demonstrate hereafter.
Infant mortality is Very large, epeci
ally among the colored poor!e. Under
the item of convulsions two sorts are -in
eluded, infantile and puerperal, the former
being largely in excess, about two thirds
of thea nount Cholera iu sw turn claimed 9
white and 17 colored victims, the most
of them occurring from Jane to "August.
Marasmns is 1 another item of importance,
probably iuclu linr many children of
syph liticand scrofulous taint, who reill
starve!, perhaps not for a lack of food,
but for failure of proper feeding. Tha
sail born children amounted, to the large
number of 21, and not 9 as stated in the
article published in the JStar '. The cases ol
atelectasis 1 1 in number would very pro
perly be added to the other diseases of
infancy, forj these cses are. all collapse or
imperfect expansion ot the lungs in new
born infants. The sum total of still
births and deaths from infantile diseases.
and accidents is one-fifth of the yearly
martality, acoording to the above state
ment. -
l would like to mention what occurs
to me to be i tl.e conclusions drawn from
the mortuary record. 13ut to do this we
must go behind the recoid. to aid us in
approximating the causes.
The malarial fevers. incluJi liir intermit
tent, rernittept, congestive and hemorrh
agic fevers, are without doubt in great
measure preventable The remedy, and
the effectual remedy, is the establishment
of thorough drainage, for our wet lands
TheNew Hanover Board'of Heath have
surveyed the entire city for this purpose,
and have on hie a sanitary map indicat
ing the places needing such attention.
This matter stares us in the face year by
year. It is only necessary to keep ope
the ditches al-eady cut and add a few
intersecting lines, but the'authority isjupon
whom devolve the duty of securing the
money for this purpose have failed in
this i respect. The Board of Health have
no functions except as advisers, aod It
may be it is because their advice is
gratuitous that it has not oeen heeded.
Typhoid fever, diphtheria and septi;
ccamia have claimed 29 victims. This
numhetwULinaatemU
people listen to ther warnings about the
condition el their dwellings and out
houses and the quaHty of their food and
drinking-water. The death rate is not
nearly as large in these diseases as the
surroundings of cur suburbaa population
would lead s to anticipate.
The causes of death from consumption
and infant mortality have a very near re
lation i to each other, as the; anxious ob
servations of our medical faculty have
elicited long ago. It can be stated with
confidence that syph lis enters largely into
most of these evils. It is no strange sight
for physicians to see stunted, syphilitic
children, passing rapidly into a condition
of marasmus (which the table shows was
the cause of death in 15 cases) and death.
I have seen , in one room, twin boys, and
father and mother, all afflicted with the
insidious contagion, all unconscious of
the vile poison lurking in their veins,' but I the bright eyes of the multitude of beau
tee father. The still-births are largely tiful ladies and fTalianttTPntlpmpnffro.
due to blighted ova from these constitu
tional vices, and the majority of these
cases occur among the negroes.
There are many reasons for this. In
the first place there is a very low moral
standard in the marital relation. The
vilest violations come frequently to our
attention. Then, again, the dark-skinned
races are less sensitive, ai 4. they are much
less apt to notice the early oonditiou of
eruptive diseases, than are the whites. As
early attention Is an essential requisite to
restoration in specific contagious diseases,
they lose the golden opportunity, and
are only aware ofrthe barm done when
they are told that the dropsy of the brain
or 1 the fatal diarrhoea in their child comes
from their diseased condition. Unfoitu
nately, it is seldom that much awakening
of the conscience follows the announce
ment.
The; Remedy, This rapid survey tf
the causes of deaths leaves us to certain
conclusions and suggests the remedies.
1st. ! Our deaths from climatic diseases
are not large. But Una does not fairly
represent the damage done by climatic in
fluences, aa the expense and less of time of
persons afflicted with chills, and bilious
fever, and other malarial disease ia much
more considerable than we would inter.
There are sections of the city, ' notably
along Watch Branch, from where tho Dry
Pond drain enters into it, at the corner of
Queen and Fifth streets, to where this
stream loses itself in the oozy ground be
tween the Cotton Factory and the old Fi
bre Works, which abounds in monthlv
crops ot diseases of a malarial character.
Then, oa the eastern slope of the city,
aloug that labarynth of ditcnes so wisely
cut, but t'j unwisely, aud at such great
cost to the city, allowed to go unrepaired,
the poorer classes of people are consxantly,
for lour months of the year, an expensive
bardn to the tax-payers, and a great
burden upon the City Physician and the
medical profession", coating far more than
it would .take to remedy the cause
of their sickness. The water stands
in many lots, leaching into the shallow
wells and springs, the sources of the
drinking water of these people, and to cap
the cl max dumping grounds are frequent-
y selected close by their bumble houses.
The remedy 'a tLfccase is possibly by daily
persis'ent efforts to carry on the drainage
of these facta during the winter months,
a course which; has beta pointed oat by
the County Board efHealtblcrg ago.
ni m i;a : i?
xu. aypnotouever ana uipuii rut are
the
ed out by the?e measures, they
- - At
can ceriamly be .greatly mrti
gated.. The State IWrd of Health has
issued a'phamphlet for gratuitous distri
bution on the prevention of diphtheria.
3J. While tho mural elernent enters
largely jcto, the causes of consumption
ana or iniant death, drainage,, ventila.
tion, purerwater, good conditioned fjod,
are not to bo lost sight of in this as iu ail
other groups of diseases. Tho consider
ation ol" tho improvement of the morals
of a community wotitd not. properly fall
to the Board of Hoath, except ; individ
uals. It ia nocessary,Jnotwi : s indfug,
that tbej should indica-o what incur ob
servations upon the subject hae led
them to ibfer. The chief of these is the
shameful disregard of the marriage obli
gatioa whicb,together with excessei in al
coholic drinks, not ouly irreparably dam
ages the constitutions of parents but trans
mits to their children the- promised curse
for such sins. No climate could - bo eo
pes'ilential as to can so the" death of as
many children as our report, gives us.
Negh ct, criminal abuse, Irureditary con
stitutional dis?ase, imprudent feeding,
and starvation, help to swell the list. It
is too often the ease that tho physician
sees that an infant patient is doomed, be
cause the mother has no appreciation, ot
her responsibility, and apparently iii
80J36 instances w here there is a Iftre
family of sm !' rv 'r'v,-c rj verj; tiute
whether i . i s .i n'- Tin so this are
.7 .i
seen iu aii co:u .lauiii vvnere there is a
large pauper class, and can only be rem
died by imprvoing the morals,' as welt
as the Banitarv surroundings of the poor.
It is economy to do both. It is danger
ous to disregard either. It is generalfy a
sign of a low degrea of civilization where
infant mortalityis great.
The State has given this corporation
the power to enforce the remedies against
this high death rate. Thfs corporation
has at its command the advice aud aid of
a legally constitutioned Board of Health.
The prosperity and ability to nav taxes
rests upon the degree of health enjoyed
by our citizens. We have been many
times warned about the results of our
neglect, and the dearest experiment a
city ever tried is exemplified in tha case
of Memphis. : We are as well oft a3 many
North Carolina towns which hold up their
heads in horror at our condition, but we
shonld be better off than any, and could
do hatter oil than any it an lll'auvi&dj
temporary economy did not thwart .the
efforts to reform our old ways.

Dime Party at J3urgaw.
The entertainment, mention of which
was made in the Revtw some days ago,
came off at Burgaw on the evening of the
8th lust. At six o'clock, on the evening
iu question, the good people of the village,
with all their
"Sisters and their cousins,
Whom they reckon by the dozens,
And their aunts,"
repaired to the court room to. partake of
the good things pre;ared by the ladies
for their "dime party 'When assembled, j
d
ed thither from New Hanover Pender
and adjoining counties, beamed with a
significance that bttokened fun and ja
plenty of it. Every one seemed upon
pleasure bent, and right royally did they
carry out their intentions. After
discussing for an hour or two tha
"goodies," and thoroughly satisfying the
inntr man, the . large .concourse ad.
jDurned to tin upper fljor, which had
been fitted up as a theatre. Here an ap
propriate address by George B. Ramsey,
Esq., opened the way to the Charades,
Dramas, Dialogues, Speeches, Song sand
Music which followed; all of which were
well rendered and well received by an
intelligent and appreciative audience
Where all did so well, it would be unjust
to particularizf, 'and we will merely say
of all, they acteM well their parts. To
the sweet and hallowed sounds of 'Home,
Sweet Home the curtain finally dropped,
and the large assemblage adjourned, al
most en masse, to the hospitable resi
donce.ofMr. R. M. Croom.vaere the vota
ries of pleasure 'chased the hours with
flying feet' until the sound pf the break
fast bell put a stop to their enjoyment.
These entertainments were given for the
purpose of raising funds to complete the
Presbyterian church at Bargaw, and the
hopes of all concerned have been more
than realized. . The dime party, theatrical
performance and dance were ealh a com
plete success The young gentlemen "who
were expecting the latiies to avail them
aalves of leap year" privileges,) seem crest
f all en, as some are forced to the conclusion
that they are not in at great demand aa
they had imagined. Don't we wish that
Xmaa would come every other day; but it
