The Qrai antine restrictions imposed npon vessels
coming into port are not aione yexatsons aad bur
ens ome to those who engaged in the West India
trade. The European packet ships which are en-
gagged in the engrant passenger business are very
often subject To az much, Il not more detention Than
any others and this happens when these ships bring
into port one or more cases of smallpox. Bat,

passengers and two cases of smallpox-one in the
person Of an infant. who was nearly well nm ar
rival aud the other IN the person Of girl OF
eighteen. upon whom ob'y n few pimpes appeared.
This was but slight manifestation of the disease,
and apparently scarcely enough TO merit severe
and rigid restrictions; yet all the passengers
having been exposed TO these two slight cases Of
smallpox, the health authorities. az a matter o
safety ordered the passengers to be vaccinated and
sent th. GU shore l. he detained for period OF five
ur days. The result has proved that the orer OF
