Cholera in Relation to Certain Physical Phenomena. [part i. 



TABLE XIII. 



Cholera deaths among European Troops in Fort William, 1826 to 1849 and 1850 to 1857, 

 [The figures of latter period refer to deaths of European Troops in " Calmitta."^ 



(a) — Thirty-one occurred in June 18.57. | (6)^-Twenty-three occurred in September 1856. 



TABLE XIV. 



Cholera admissions among European Troops in Fort William, 1826 to 1876. 

 [Deaths alone registered during 1850-55 and 1857.] 



(a) — Forty-nine of these admissions occurred in 1826. 



These tables show results which, in reference to the general phenomena of the 

 fluctuations in the prevalence of cholera, substantially agree with those regarding the 

 population at large. This is specially the case with that referring to deaths, which we 

 have already seen cause to regard as the one more accurately representing the facts. 

 The principal points of difference between the results lie in the greater relative fall in 

 prevalence in December and January among the troops, and in the fact that among 

 them the months of maximum prevalence are April and May, in place of March and 

 April. The general phenomena of the rise of prevalence at the close of the rainy 

 season, followed by a fall during December and January, and of a second great rise in 

 the succeeding months, followed by a great fall during the rains, are exactly those 

 which we met with in the former tables. 



The following tables show the number of admissions from cholera among the 

 Native troops in Fort William and in Alipore cantonment from 1864 to 1876 : —
