The increased number of Civilians resident in the city would induce the belief that a corresponding addition to the number of deaths would result, it is impossible however to arrive at any general correct average of deaths amongst civilians, as there is no registry kept in my Office of Interments other than in the Government cemetery: – 40 civilian adults and 44 children were buried last year; this year 18 adults and 8 children. An increase in the number of deaths amongst Merchant Seamen would follow as a matter of course considering the increased trade of the Port, and the addition to the Fleet ships by the regular and hired Transports, but even with this large addition it is satisfactory to observe that the increase of deaths amounted only to 9, the total number interred this year being 51.

Paupers buried entirely destitute, comprising seamen and others amounted to 27, the number last year being 21: thus forming a total of 240 deaths. The number being 199 for the year, 1859. The fees receivable for the year are
