SETH'S FROM THE MEDITERRANEAN.—ORDER IN
Coexcif.. —The Lords of her Majesty's Council have caused
Mr. Greville, one of the Clerks of the Council, to forward a
communication to the Commissioners of Cus-oms, stating
that he was directed by their Lordships to inform them, that
although all vessel,: arriving in the ports of this country from
the Mediterranean, without being furnished with clean bills
of health, are liable to be detained under quarantine, yet, as
the ConsulS and Vice-Consuls in parts of the Mediterranean
have received instructions (under a misapprehension as to
the existing regulations) to abstain from pressing bills of
health on the masters of vessels; and as it is probable that i
vessels may in consequence arrive unprovided with such bills,
their Lordships are of opinion that such vessels arriving from
any Christian port in the Mediterranean, excepting the ports
of Greece, may for the present be immediately released, pro-
vided that the visiting officer is satisfied that all persons on
board such vessels have, durin4 the voyage, been free from
any infectious disease which would render them liable to
quarantine. It is, however, to be understood from the above,
that all vessels from the ports of Turkey, Egypt, Syria, and
Greece, must be provided with bills of health, and this order
has been communicated to the proper authorities of the seve-
ral ports in the United Kingdom, with directions to take care
that it be duly obeyed.
