THE CHOLERA IN THE EAST.
A Malta correspondent, writing on the 9Th in
slant, say AT the sitting of the Government
Council on the lst Sir Victor Houtou, Chief
Secretary to the Government, in reply to
question put by the Hon. DR.. Sciortiuo, said that
Lord Clarence Paget had received telegram
announcing the prevalence of cholera at Jedda
amongst the pilgrims returning from Bchow
| and Mecca; that there was great mortality
! amongst the soldiers; and that the epidemic
| had also made its appearance at Masso wah. In
| consequence OF this intelligence directions have
| been given by the local government not 10 allow
vessels arriving with Hadiis to come INTO auy Of
the ports OF Malta, and the English Consul at
! Alexandra has been requested to inform the
authorities OF this island in the event of cholera
breaking out in that city, in order that imme-
| diate steps may be taken to establish quaran-
| tine here on all arrivals from Alexandria. 1t
| appears that the Government are determined
| to adopt very strict quarantine measures, in
| order to try and keep the much-dreaded enemy
away from us. Telegraphc intelligence has
| been received announcing the arrival of a
| steamer at Suez with Hadis, having several
cases OF cholera on board"

solved to refuse this demand, and instructed

in case Macmillan should carry cut his inten'
| tion of abdicating.
