CHEESE.

Remarks from the Boston Patri>t On .dinari-
can Caeese, lately denounced IN The West-L,dieg,
Us iioisonous.
The practice of using drugs and dies to
give cheese false colouring, and sometimes
for the more innocent purpose Of guarding it
from insects, is extremely reprehensioe
We are credibly informed that the Captain Of
the vessel, who had the misfortune to carry
the cheese, mentioned in the Fed. Gazette
to Havana, was imprisonedand tinedin large
sum, on the suspicion of an attempt to destroy
the inhabitants OF the place by poison. Ought
not a law to be passed, enacting severe penal
ties for such wanton offences of our cheese
