To realise for London this conception of how a city should cleanse

itself may involve, no doubt, the perfection of numberless details. Yet,

most of all, it would pre-suppose a comprehensive organisation of plan

and method: not alone for that intramural unity of system which is

needful for all the works, as most for those of drainage and

water-supply; but, equally, to harmonise these works with other

extramural arrangements for utilising to the country the boundless

wealth of metropolitan refuse--for distributing to the uses of

agriculture what is then rescued from the character of filth--for

requiting to the fields in gifts for vegetation, what they have rendered

to the town in food for man.

How far the construction of London has proceeded on the recognition of

such objects, or how far the advantages of such a plan have been

realised, it could only be a mockery to ask. Our metropolis, by

successive accretions, has covered mile after mile of land. Each new

addition has been made with scarcely more reference to the legitimate

necessities of life, than if it had clustered there by crystallisation.

With no scientific forecast to plan the whole, with little but chance

and cheapness to shape the parts, our desultory architecture has

eclipsed the conditions of health. Draining up-hill or down-hill, as the

case might be, and running their aqueducts at random from chalk-quarries

or river-mud; or ponding sewage in their cellars, and digging beside it

for water; blocking-up the inlets of freshness and, equally, the outlets

of nuisance; constructing sewers to struggle with the Thames--now to

pollute its ebb, now to be obstructed by its flow; the builders of many

generations have accumulated sanitary errors in so intricate a system,

that their apprehension and their cure seem equally remote.

Therefore--by reason of causes, ramified through the whole metropolis

and deep-rooted in its soil, which bind all parts together in one common

endurance of their effects--therefore cannot epidemic disease be

conquered by any exertions or by any amelioration, short of the complete

and comprehensive cure. Against the danger we dread, no shelter is to be

found in petty reforms and patchwork legislation. Not to inspectorships

of nuisances, but to the large mind of State-Policy, one must look for a

real emancipation from this threatening plague.

A child’s intellect can appreciate the wild absurdity of seeking at Peru

what here runs to waste beneath our pavements,--of ripening only

epidemic disease with what might augment the food of the people--of

waiting, like our ancestors, to expiate the neglected divinity of water

in some bitter purgation by fire.

But it needs the grasp of political mastership, not uninformed by

Science, to convert to practical application these obvious elements of

knowledge; to recognise a national object irrelevant to the interests of

party; to lift an universal requirement from the sphere of professional

jealousies, and to found in immutable principles the sanitary

legislation of a people.

I have the honour to remain,

&c. &c.

+--------------------------------------------------------------------+

NOTE TO TABLE No. II.

In calculating the Death-Rates given in the last lines of this Table, I

have proceeded as follows:--

First, I have counted all _Workhouse-Population_ and _Workhouse-Deaths_

as forming part of the aggregate population and aggregate mortality of

that Union to which the particular workhouse legally belongs.

Next, I have distributed among the several sub-districts the population

and the mortality of their Union Workhouses, in the ratio of the general

sub-district population; so as to prevent the high Workhouse-Mortality

from telling unjustly against that sub-district in which the Workhouse

happens to have been erected.

Thus, for instance, the East London Union has its male Workhouse placed

in the territory of the West London Union; but I have reckoned it as

belonging to the East London Union, in respect both of its population

and its deaths. Similarly, the City of London Union has its Workhouse

situate at Bow; but, not the less, I have considered its 794 inmates and

526 deaths as belonging to the population and the mortality of our

central Union.

Thus again for the sub-district death-rates--for instance, in

the two sub-districts of the East London Union: reckoning the

Workhouse-Population not as exclusively due either to Cripplegate or to

St. Botolph, but as furnished by these sub-districts jointly, in the

ratio of their populations, I have distributed 576 between them in the

proportion, 23,435 : 20,582. The Workhouse-Deaths of the period (802)

have been similarly distributed; and the rates, given in the last line

of the table, are finally deduced from a comparison of these sums,

viz:--

23,435 + 306.66 : 2458 + 426.991 :: 1000 : 121.515, which divided by 5

(to show an annual, instead of a quinquennial, result) gives 24.30 as

the annual death-rate for St. Botolph; and, in like manner, 20,582 +

269.33 : 2483 + 375.008 gives 137.065 as the quinquennial, and 27.41 as

the annual death-rate _per_ thousand for the sub-district of

Cripplegate.

_Hospital Deaths_ have been distributed, as far as possible, according

to the previous residence of the patients. Thus the north sub-district

of the West London Union, in which St. Bartholomew’s Hospital is

situated, is made to retain only its just proportion of deaths. On the

same principle I have reckoned to the death-lists of other sub-districts

those cases in which I could ascertain that the residents of such

sub-districts had gone to die either in St. Bartholomew’s, or in other

Metropolitan Hospitals.
