the two women are a bad set, and have

REPORT OF DIX. Ii. Z. McLAURIF.
BRAxDoS, Miss, Nov. 6, 1873.
To the Honorable Board Of Supervisors Of
Rankin county
The undersigned would respectfully
state to your Honorable Court that he
has been importuued by many substan-
tiaI citizens OF said county 10 false all
quarantine restrictions. He Is impressed
With the belief that there is yet some
danger, butthe embarrassment Of keep
ing up partial restrictions retards com
merce, and possibly paralyzes business
generally, beyond what IS commensurate
with the probable danger. The season
has 50 far advanced as to justify the be
lief that we may remain free Sroin the
IN lection, but | take the liberty Of urging
upon all merchants in the county not to
receive, or handle such goods as may
convey the infection, that have been
stored in cities and towns where the
fever has prevailed, and also that they
confne their purchases for the present IN
New Orleans to cotton ties, salt and
other goods that would not convey the
disease, remembering always that coffee,
woollen goods, bagging, etc, are mot
dangerous. With this statement, no"
remove all quarantine restrictions Tor the
county, trusting that we may remain
free from the infection, as We are to-day
Thanking the Honorable Court for the
honor conferred upon me. and that
generous support they have extended to
me during my service, | am
Very respectfully,

California is shipping honey to Europe,
one vessel recently taking out eighty

1t seems a strange thing to talk about

quantities of honey overland to the
