SIR,
As there is a probability that very
rigorous quarantine regulations will be a
doptedby this governmental consequence
of the extension of the Yellow Fever TO
various Of the ports of Europe, in order to
anticipate them, conceive it highly me-
cessary, that our vessels in general bound
TO the Baltic, and particularly those des
tined to the ports Of Russia be provided
with the usual documents declaratory Of
the state of the health Of the district OF the
United States from which they clear, and
in the event of their touching at other pla
ces, previous to their entering the Baltic,
tina, they procure therefrom the like attes-
ta,ions, or otherwise very injurious deten.
tons may result.
You will please Sir to give publicity
thereto for the Information of the Mer-
chants Of the United States.
have the honor to be very respectful
-.
