Of tho 43 deaths this month, 31 were males, 12 females, an unusually large 

 share for the former. Two died in the Glenorchy division of tho registration 

 district, the rest in tho city. In tho first week of the month, 12 died ; in tho 

 second and third, 9 each ; in the fourth, 8 ; in the last three days, 5. Six 

 days of the month had not a death. Tho greatest number on any two con- 

 secutive days, was 5, on tho last two days of tho month, which were remarkable 

 for a sudden extensive increase of atmospheric pressure^ decrease of tempera- 

 tui-e, absence of electricity, fresh southerly wind, and copious fall of rain. 



The births registered during the month wore 73, being 3 more than in May, 

 1864.
