V‘ E CHRISTIAN tHE NINTH, by the Grace of God King of Denmark, the Vandals and the Goths, Duke of Sleswick, Holsteen, Stor marn, Ditmarsh, Laienborg and Oldenborg, Make known: On the report of Our Minister of Finances, who has laid before Us the most submissive Reports of the Colonial Councils in Our Westindia Possessions on cer tain provisional enactments given by the Government of the aforesaid Possessions, concerning the enrolment of men for the Brand-Companies in the towns at St. Croix and St. Tho mas, We most graciously decree Until the duty of serving in the Militia and in the Brand-Companies in Our Westindia Possessions can be fur ther regulated in accordance with the princigles laid down in 82 of the Colonial Law of 27th November 1863, the. enactments contained in the Publication from the Govern ment of the aforesaid Possessions dated 25th of September 1863 and from the Presidency for the Islands of St. Thomas and St. Johns dated 28th October 1863 concerning the en rolment of men for the Brand-Companies in the towns at St. Croix and St. Thomas shall remain in force, it being re served to the Government to give further regulations regard ing the increase and decrease of the Brand-Companies in ac cordance with 6 of the abovementioned Publications. To which all concerned have to conform. d Given at Amalienborg the 17th of March 1865. Under Our Royal Hand and Seal. CHRISTIAN R. L. S. R. C. N. David. ORDINANCE concerning theßrand-Companies at St. Croix and St. Thomas. which has not, according to the hitherto existing rules, enti tled the person filling it to receive pension, shall by this Law establish such right; and on the other hand any per son, who at the time this Law comes in force holds an ap pointment in an office which according to the hitherto ex isting rules has given him the right of receiving pension, but which would not according to this Law give him such fight, shall be entitled personally to receive pension accord ing to the general rules-established in this Law. Appointments for a specified period or. aflp‘ointm'entl that may be withdrawn after previous r;otice shall not entitle the party holding them to receive pension. 2. In case the official has, during his whole term of ser vice under the Colonial Administration, or at all events during the last 12 years of the same, received his salary from one and the same Colonial Treasury, the pension sos. such an official shall be defrayed by that Treasury. But if the official has within the space of 12 years m?revious to his discharge, at different periods received his salary from both Colonial Treasuries, each of these Treasuries shall defray part of the pension in proportion to the time, within thé abovementioned period of 12 years, during which it has de frayed the salary to the official. That Colonial Treasury [Nr. b 5.

Page 2

which has not defrayed the salary to the official immediately previous to his discharge shall, however, in no case defray a larger amount of pension to the official, than it would have had to defray if the official had been discharged at the time he ceased to receive salary from that Treasury. The salaries hitherto defrayed from the State-treasury under the Colonial Budget shall be considered as having been defrayed from the one or both Colonial Treasuries which will in future have to defray such salaries. 3. The pension shall be calculated according to the whole space of time during which an official has served in his se veral offices, and according to the average amount of the in come he has received in his offices during the 5 years previ ous to his discharge, or, should he not have served 5 years, during his whole term of service. In calculating the term of service and the average amount of income for Military Officers and other officers in the same class with them, any year in which they may have been in war, or been ordered out on account of war, or been placed on war-footing, shall be reckoned equal to two years. The amount of pension shall be calculated as follows from 0- 2 years’ service gives a pension of I[lo of the average-amount of income.

Those items of income that are to come into considera tion in calculating the amount of pension are the following 1) fixed annual salary, to which shall also be added the com pensation for perquisites in natura that may be attached to the office, in so far as such compensation has been set down at a certain value in money 2) additions to salary allowed the official personally 3) fees, percentages, copying-fees and similar legal, uncer tain income (not including portions of fines, extra-honora raries, table-money, amounts allowed for defraying office expences, for keeping horses and such like, or diet-money, provided it has not been stipulated by Law that these are to be included when fixing the amount of pension or “Vartpenge,”) as also such perquisites (free dwelling, lands, fuel and light, included), which are expressly allow ed the official as wages or part of his wages. In the same manner as amounts allowed certain officials for defraying office-expences shall not be reckoned among the incomes of their office, so also, in cases where the official has any expenses for keeping his office, for travelling &c., but no amount has been specially allowed him for such pur poses, the amount which it is calculated that he expends in this manner shall be deducted from the gross revenue Ausættelser og Entledigelser.

From the nett amount of the uncertain income and per quisites, calculated in the manner abovementioned, one third part shall be deducted. In the case of offices to which none of the items of income mentioned under No. 1 and 2 are attached, or where these do not altogther amount to 1000 dollars, only part of whatever the total amount of the nett income of the office exceeds this sum shall be deducted. In the case of an official being discharged from an of fice, the salary for which has b-en defrayed from the State-treasury in the Mothercountry, the salary which he may have enjoyed while previously filling an office in the colonies shall be altered to Rigsdollars R.

Whenever the average amount of income from an office, calculated according to the foregoing rules, exceeds 6000 Dollars, the surplus shall not be taken into consideration. No peunsion must exceed 3000 Dollars.

If he has not received an appointment in another office before the expiration of the 5 years, he shall be placed on pension. Those years during which he may have enjoy ed “Vartpenge” shall be counted as so many years of ser vice, but the pension is to be caleculated in proportion to the income he received before he commenced to enjoy “Vartpenge.” By income from an office, except where otherwise prescribed, shall be understood the average amount of the same, calculated according to the rules con tained in the preceding 3 and 4. Any official having attained the aze of 70 years shall have the right to be relieved from service and shall receive pension according to this Law. If an official in the colonies should have served there 20 years, he shall be entitled to claim this right on his atmiu{;ng 65 years of age.

On the 27th June 1865 about 9 or 10 o'clock a.m., smell of Fire was observed _ so come Ifom vedchamber in the House of Mr. C. van Beverhoudt, West End. It was found out to proceed from an act of a servant girl of Mr. Beverhoudlt’s, by the name of Ann Eliza Jane Hatchett, about L 3 years old, who had been in the room with another person, and whilst this latter leaned herself out of a window, the girl took up a match from the floor, ignited it and threw it burning in a box which stood under the bed, in which was $Te CROLX AVLI S. some newspapers, a shirt and a pair of drill pantaloons, which all more or less caught. The girl maintained first, that she only thought that the newspapers and the clothes in the box would be burnt, and the fire spread no further, as the sheet was thrown upon the bed, and did not hang down on the box, which was drawn a little outside the bed, and afterwards that she had no intention whatever of any injury would have taken place, or that any thing would have burnt, neither that she thereby thought to have got rid of her service, but that she had only done it in play. From the investigations taking place, it is however likely, that no prosecution will be ordered, on account of her youth, and all the circumstances of the case tak en into consideration, but that she will come off with the imprisonment she has already sustained. E. MONEFELDT, Ageut. THE DEATII LEDGER. Erom the Daily Telegraph.) Statistics in which every unit means a liuman hfe have naturally a powerful in tercst tor all stadents. It may be tedio s to coutnt how many quarters of wheat have been imported from Galatz, how many hides aud hoofs have been sent to us from the Rio de la Plata, how many bales of cotton have been received from Wilmington or Charleston, Alexandria or Bombay; but when we come to the bills of mortality the fizures become animated aud each single entry has a pathos and a nieaning of its own. For many years London has been the only city which kept a weekly record of its dead. True to the good English instinct of looking facts in the face and making public every failure or calamity, our officials have written down upen their elaborate forms the rea son of the deaths of every man, woman, or child who expired within the bounds of the metropolis. From the Registrar- General’s reports it might be easy to se leet material that should form the ground work for an attack upon the sanitary ar rangements of London; but we do not leave foreigoners to flud out our weak places, to point their fingers at our sores. In the Crimea the sufferings of the linglish army were Koown by tue testimony of Engelish observers, and the result ot this bold publicity was that we all set to work to put the camp in order. When the war ended, the British army was in finer condition than either its enemies or its allies. 'The policy of suppression and concealment—that timid instinet which locks the skeleton in the cupboard in stead of giving it decent sepultare in the charchyard—has received, let us hope, its death blow. A great nation, like an hon est man, need not hide anything—the more the truth is known the better will it be; and if a people has Jie manliness 1o become its own acecaser, we may be tolei ably sure that i is conscious of a power _nf reeovery, and that it knows its diseases are susceptible of cure. Thauvks to the good example of London, other cities are about to keep more regular weekly ac counts of their dead. The Registrar- General of Ireland furnishes returns from Dublin; the Registrar-General of Scot land forwards reports from Edinburgh and Glasgow Liverpool, Mauchester, Salford, Birmiogham, Leeds, and Bristol are also about to send their contributions to our stock of vital statistics: whilst, on the Continent, Vienna is already in direct and rezular communication with the London office; Berlin is expected soon to supply similar information; and Baron Hauss man, who has done so much to make Paris pretty, will, it is hoped, inform us of what diseases the Parisians die. That no plague-cart now rolls through our street¢ al night; that, despite the wonderful growth of the city and almost immeasurable development of toil, the death rate is steadily kept down; that the virulence of most diseases is becoming abated, and that London is now, consider ing its size and the density of its populd tion, one of tho healthiest places in the world—are ficis of which our contempo rary @diles may fairly be proud. The bilis of mortality, like a hundred other usetul things, were first institated in the reign of LEhzabeth—a time when the na tional peril was so great that it became more than cver necessary to count the numbers of the people, and to see how many fizhting-folks were subtracted from the roll-call by infirmity or death. Small, comparatively speaking, was the musier then—within the walls and liberties of Loudon there were buta hundred and thirty thousand souls; when last the peo ple were numbered, in 1861, the popula tion of the metropolis had reached the as tounding aggregate of two millions and eight hundred thousand! Fairly to esti mate what the present standard of health represents, we must remember that the mizhty city has not been built in accord atice with any well-conceived and definite plan—that it bas had, for ages, no muni cipal organisation at all adequate to its wants—that, without official guidance, tralning, or direetion, it has confusedly, chaotically, clumsily grown intoits present magnitude. Had it been built from the beginuing with a definite scheme, and up on a plan affording suitable scope for ex pansion, it might perhaps have been even healthier than it is. Creditable, neverthe less, to the rough and ready c¢hymmon sense of the people is it that London, al though left pretty much to its own devices, has done so weil. There must, after all, be something in the air of the place that conduces to vitality; for the weariest brain, however overtasked, never benlsg uniil it is fairly beaten and worn out— the most afflicted heart keeps on a fierce defiant palsation, until it stops for ever. Nowhere do men live so proudly, so swiftly, so indomitably. Intensely alive is the city metropolitan. Fog creeps up along the low reedy banks of the Thames, and seitles down thickly upon the nar now streets; a raw rheum is in the air, chilling and disheartening; over the houses hang a mighty pall of smoke from hundreds of thoroughfares the light is virtually excluded but here, brood ing in this close and horrible hive, never slackening their toil, never faltering in their courage, the people still labour and live. ~,'llgy labour and live; but also they die. Wehawe said that io many respeets the London bills W tory'; they show us how mueh has be:n done to improve the general health but there are ugly items in the story. T'ake the three months that ended in last De cember; 19,636 deaths were registered—< about 800 more than in the correspond-- ing quarter of the previous year—an ad- dition fairly to be attributed to the natu ral increase of the population. In iigelf the number is not alarmingly great, but there are some little entries in the funé ral account which are far from satisfacto-

Page 4

ry. Thus we find that 120 perished from small-pox—a disease which it was hoped had been almost entirely extirpa te«f There are deaths—to the shame of all of us!—from destitution and starva tion; and there is a frightful entry under the head of typhus fever. In the corres il:onding quarter of 1860, typhus fever illed only 311; in 1861 it slew 624; in 1862 it destroyed 796 in 1863 its vic tims numbered 881, and last year the number was 1,064. Plainer lesson was never more grimly taught. It isinman’s power to struggle with typhus; by wise and well-ordered sanitary measures he may almost extinguish it; and yet we see that in a generation which piques it self upon its care for social science the disease has been steadily increasing. Nor can we altogether wonder at a fact which seem at first so startling. Over and over again in the columns of this journal have we told the rich how the poor are obliged to dwell; in whatsqualid, crowded, fever haunted dens they huddle together more like wild beast than men.
