    summary of the principal facts in regard to the extent of Sickness and Mortality, coupled with a few plain deductions from the numerical evidence which they supply. As on a former occasion, I have to express my ohligations to Deputy Inspector General INIarshall, and Staff Assistant Surgeon Balfour, for the valuable aid they have afforded me. To the former I am indebted for his careful revision of these ])ages, as well as for much of the information which originally directed my attention to such inquiries ; and to the latter, for his zealous co-operation in the arrangement and preparation of the voluminous documents from ^^•hic^l tliis Report has been compiled. # ALEX.
