MORTUARY REPORT.
Oakland is, beyond a doubt, the most healthful city on the continent. The death rate in 1879 is shown by the official reports to be 9.65. The number of deaths in 1879 was 410, of which 222 were males and 188 females. In ad- dition to this there were 27 still births.
There were 473 births. The excess of births over deaths was 63. The birth rate is much higher, but cannot be accu- rately stated, as a number of physicians have not complied with the ordinance, compelling them to make monthly re- ports.
