The proportion of remittents to intermittents is 32*1 per cent.:double that of the European General Hospital. If the inferencebe drawn from this statement that the remittent is more frequentin Natives, compared with the intermittent type, than in Europeans,it would be a correct deduction from the tables; but it would bean application of the figures to a question which they are notcalculated to solve. The fact is, that natives do not readilyresort to a civil hospital for mild attacks of fever ; therefore theproportion of the severer type is greater than in a Eurojaean hos-pital, partly civil and partly military in its character. In the half year from June to November the proportion ofthis type is 29; in the half year from December to May it is 3Gper cent. We have found that, from June to November the pro-portion of remittents was greater, but that of intermittents was less,in th
