Dr Haviland has brought forward a rather formidable calculation respecting heart disease, which ought to make us think twice. He says that they have increased from_ 5,476 deaths in 1851 to 12,428 in 1870. This cannot be the result of chance, but is evidently the result of overwork, worry, and the railway system. There is not a day on which I travel by the Underground that I do not see people jumping into carriages breathless and purple in the face. This if repeated very often means heart diseas ', and the mortality will increase the more we race to and fro. Gold is an idol, worshipped in all climate without a single temple, and by all classes without a single hypocrite.
