The Morning Journal, of the 30th of January m,N
tons that the yellow fever had made its appearance

port laden with coal. The captain and mate had bo
carried of within three days after being attacked an
two of the crew remained dangerously ill., The disa,l
has rarely been known to appear there so early in N
season. f.

ject Of connecting this port with their own BY means
The ROYAL West India mail steamers and Cat island b
Dor Il copies very largely from the speculaons Of
English papers on this subject.
Messrs j. w. Zacharie & Co have furnished ma
chants and underwriters in the United States with M
following information. 1t is derived from the America
consul at Kingston:
u. S. CONSULATE, KINGSTON, a.,
na January 2, 1871 |
Although il has been more than duly notified mi
public papers of this city, by the American consul a
goods landed from American vessels in damaged ah|
should only be surveyed under warrant from the sal
consul but that the vendue sales should be auhentcae
by him. also thereare nevertheless, certain persons
are doing business here who pay NOT the least regard
above notification, and they invariably all whom the
please as surveyors on tue same, without giving the ha
notice to the consu and have also dispensed with his
ification of the vendue sales.
Should this regular!ty not be discounenanced by ii
