The great preponderance of deaths among the colored population for the past week, the rate being per one thousand, while deaths among the white population are culy atthe rate of £.99 per one thousand, confirms the statement made in the last annual report ot the Board of Health, that the high rate of mortality among the colored po; ulation is due largely to their habits of life, aggregation Ip ill-ventilated departments, de- ficient and unwholesome food, their want of knowledge of appreciation of sanitary requiro- ments: being crowded into hovels built in the alleys, and Is the lowest and most unhealthy portions of our cities.
