The following very useful table I have collated from the valuable Army 

 Report for 1859. It would be very desirable if some tables were given to 

 show tiic different periods that men had been located at each station. 



Although this table is valuable, it must be borne in mind that it is only for 

 one year. Troops are so continually changing stations that we must only 

 receive the .'^uscestivc evidence of such a table for what it is worth. It will

be seen that there are no deaths in some stations at forty years of age and 

 upwards ; this is, however, simply because it frequently happens that there 

 are no men in a regiment above that age.
