Excerpt from Statistics Relating to the Births, Deaths, Marriages, and Movement of Population in the City of Philadelphia, From January 1, 1861, to January 1, 1872
It is proper to state here, that the space allowed for this article precludes the introduction of many useful deductions and com parisons.
The movement of the population in one country, as compared with that of another, as well as that of the same place compared with preceding numerations, always a matter of interest, becomes more and more so as civilization advances, bringing with it evidences of physical and moral degeneracy, as evinced in the proportionally fewer marriages, in a smaller number of births to each marriage, a lessened birth-rate, a declining proportion of male births, increase in the proportion of male deaths, increasing proportion of females in the general population, increasing illegitimacy, increase In the proportion of inhabitants in cities over the country, and in so'ne instances a slowly diminishing mortality; and, notwithstanding this last occasional occurrence, always a declining increase in population, which means that increase must cease in some dimly distant future.
