| committee from the Commissioners Of Emigra-
ton, with DIR. Thompson, the Health Officer, Dr..
Bissell, physician to the Marine Hospital at the
old Quarantine yesterday, under escort Of the Quar-
antine Commissioners, visited Seguine's Point. The
committee from the Emigration Commissioners
made the visit, having been deputed by their Board
to do so for the purpose Of asceanng the character
and suficiency of the accommodations being pro-
vided at Seguines Point for parties arriving at this
port lsbofing under infectious diseases. II will be
from the report of the particulars OF the visit,
as given elsewhere, that the Emigration Com
missiopers found that nothing like the accommo-
dstions needed have been provided. The present
visit Of inspectors has developed, indeed, most
clearly and ndisputaby the fact that the Quarantine
! Commissioners have acted without any knowledge
or practical reaza isn Of their dutea As the case
stands they have done essentially nothing compared
with what remains TO be done.

Never siDce the time of the good Queen Bess
and the "Invincble Armada" has Spanish feet
BEEN 20 widely commented upon as this oae,
which is said TO be intended TO operate against
Mexico. Circumstances combine to make this
Spanish Mexicsn question prominent one. The
world elsewhere is at peace. Even the war in
China seems for tie present 10 be settling down
