We desire to call the attention of Congress
to the fact that the necessity of establishing a
system OF national quarantine is quite i'm
portant to the people of the South-and for
the matter of that, to the people of the whole
country-as any legislation demanding
the consideration Of the Federal Legislature.
After the passage of the appropriation bills the
legislation necessary to the adoption of quar-
antine system at once rigid and stringent should
take precedence Such system is necessity,
and there should be no delay in perfecting and
adopting it. The bill which passed the last
Congress towards the close of the session pro-
vides merely for a board of health the func-
