Remain at the latest accounts in Scotland, 222 cases ; in England, 150 cases. The cases in the Table did not all occur on the day op- posite to which they are placed. In several instances in England and in Scotland, the reports have been made with great irregularity. Thus, Percy Main reports are from the 21st January to the 2d February; Earsden Colliery, similarly, from January 23d to February 4th; and in one report from Haddington, fifteen new cases, not previously noticed, are put down as occurring on the 4th, on which day there were but two new cases. At Edinburgh there was one case, supposed to be spon- taneous, on Saturday, which proved fatal on Monday. The patient dosed himself with whisky, but did not apply for medical advice until he was too far gone for any advice to be of avail. At Kirkintillock, the disease is nearly extinct ; but it has been very severe. No regular reports have been made of its progress.
