In April, 1858, committee was appointed to In
vestigate and report upon certain questions which
came before that body; one Of which was: "Have
guarantees secured the object for which they
were invented 20 and 1.-THE committee decided in
the negative, they were instructed to assign the
reasons for the failure. The report Of the gentle
men to whom the examination of the subject was
committed, show that they have well considered
this fact and that whilst combating the idea that
quarantine measures, however judicious in them
selves, and however strictly enforced, are GER
tain and absolute protection against those diseases
which, at longer or shorter intervals make their
appearance under the character of widely extend

hand, they admit that a judicious and well ad-
