With thde two, Sir, you will not I believe, think it 
unreafonable to join the following Heads, which, by 
the bell; Information I can procure, comprehend only 
very young Children, or at moft not above one or two 
Y ears of Age. Overlaid^ Cbryfoms and Infants^ Con- 
vuljions^ Hor/ejhoehead, Headmoldfhot, Teeth, Wa- 
ter in the Head, Worms, Rickets, Liver grown, Chin- 
Cough, and Hooping-Cough, which Articles in the 
Yearly Bills for Years laft pafl:, amount at a Medi- 
um to 386 in each 1000, of the whole Number of 
Burials. 
It is true indeed, that, in all Probability, fome 
fmall part of thele mult have gone thro’ the Small Pox, 
and therefore ought not to be dcdudred out of the Ac- 
count ; but then, on the otha- hand, as it is certain, 
that of the remaining of Mankind, that are above 
1000 
one or two Years of Age, there are great Numbers, 
that never have the Small Pox, it will T prelume be 
judged to be no unequal Suppofition, if I fuppofe all 
that are contain’d under the Heads abovemention’d, to 
have mifsM that Diflemper, when by way of Com- 
penfation, I allow all the remainder of Mankind to 
undergo it ; which ConcelTion is fo large, that it will 
/ abundantly make up for what I alTume too much in the 
former Suppofition. 
Allowing therefore, that out of every 1000 Chil- 
dren that are born, 386 die under one or two Years 
of Age, without having the Small Pox, and yz do 
fbme time or other die of that Diflemper ; it follows, 
that the Hazard of dying of it, to the remainder of 
Mankind, above one or two Years of Age, who are 
all fuppoled to undergo that Difeafe fooner or later, is 
that of 71 out of 6x4, or nearly z out of 17 : lo that
