Quarantine Laws Amendment Bill was
Imad
." third time and passed last night by the•
quz
*'"‘
Commons. The Misapprehensions that
have a •
• r rilen
"t• of this Bill have been productive
.161 mud, •
• injury to British commerce Iran the
Steps taken
by foreign Governments, in. ignorance
oi the real nature of this Bill, to • secure them-
selves
• f
Torn contagion. With "'this view, and
-under the impression that it was the intention of
•the British GovernMentto abolish all Quarantine
`regulations, they have Lbn*ll[4la fit to subject yes-
!leis arriving from England to longer Quaran•
`tine than heretofOrte, the injurious consequences
of which, in a commercial point of view, it is
hardly necessarytopoint out.' We trust, however,
Itintt when the subject is fully explained they will
remove these new restrictions. The abject of the
present Bill is not the abolishment of the system
but simply. ft consolidation of .the ,present laws,
{hem
with such amendments as may render
'nem less burdensome to commerce, by reducing
tile number of days hitherto -devoted to quarantine.
Whatever opinions may be abroad as to the doc-
trine of contagion, and even admitting that of
IlaNcontagion was better established than it is,
'still whilst a doubt on the point remains the pre-
cautionary system of Quarantine ought not to be
a.bandoned.
Tile public health ought not to be
rth'sked on an opinion only, however well founded
at opinion may be. That there are some bodies
(31,1,13ab1e of resisting disease by contagion only no
e will doubt, but at the same time it is equally
'44 that there are others •snore than commonly
414ce eptible of it, and in particular states all are
t Or.t)r less liable to take.disease by actual con-
act• Under such circumstances it would be worse
thanl) madness to open a door through which even
Y n remote postibility so dreadful a scourge as
jyPlague could he introduced into this country.
rnust, therefore, conclude in the words of
cur• CANNING, last night,-that 4‘ under these cir-
comstances, he certainly did wish that non-
atit-m igi"ists Would be"
pleased to keep such
or if ZPinions a little more. to themselves,
-• '114" would continue their experiments, he
.11,,artilY trusted that they'would be tried and ex-
eon "'tied, as such experiments anciently were in
tisore viii, rather than in a manner to prejudice
'e general welfare of the community."

r. HUSIE, last night, presented three Petitions.
Iron-, the London Woo'staplers, the
Iyorkers, and the Operative Cotton Spinners of
CI ricers,
against the Ite.enactment of the Corn-
Tin.plat
ue
tnnation Laws. No discussion took place upon
thm, and it is•
-atementioned to call the public
ent only
ion to the explanation given ty
p
soN as to the views Mr. li es-
the Committee now
wing entertain on this subject. From this ex-
Planar • ton, tt would app
q ear that no intention exists
0.1. re-
enaCting the old laws, but simply " to ren-
_
niast der more effective and practically applicable for
I .aer and man the resolutions of the Committee
st sessiqu, upon which the House had subse-
-2_l3ently founded a. bill. All they desired was to
"Pair the practical defects of last years' Bill."
