AS the physicians employed in the quaran-
tine establishments Of the sea ports have WIS.,
lied IN the United STATES, from Louisiana UP

ton, communicated in the most liberal man
ner, the result of their experience on the con-
tasious or non-contagious nature OF the yellow
fever, had naturally every reason to expect
the same iavortrom those attached TO the quar-
anime establishment of the city of New York

numerous and important documents, which

ter and authority which they deserve /, there
tore, Ill leaving this city. must declare it is my
hrin conviction, that In the exercise of your
public duties, as well as in your private prac-
ice, you have never observed any fact, which
proves the communicating of the yellow
fever from one person 10 another. or, in other
terms, its contagious character; hence il is.
that DIR. Bayley has informed me, that during
the nineteen years tie has been attached to the
Lazaretto Of New York, he has not seen a
single case where this fever has been com
municated by one person TO another, or in
other words, prnpagated by contagion; and
that Or. Harrison, who has been employed
during nine years in the same establishment.
mas given me the same assurance; and that
Dr. Quackenbos, still more explicit, after hav-
ing expressed to me his decided opinion, that
Tue yellow fever was not contagious, has adj

ne was unable to trace TO Old-slip, during the

THESE facts having been confirmed to me
by great number of respectable persons, to
