Gently passed the State quarantine officers
at the port of New York the Secretary of
the Treasury has instructed the Collector
of Customs of that port to allow no rags
to be imported unless positive proof is
produced that they come from non-in-
tected ports, and are in themselves entire
ly free from Infection. The fact that a
vessel has a clean bill of health and
has been given permit to pass by local
quarantine officers is not to be considered
conclusive proof of the nOn-infected con-
dition of her cargo. These instructions
are based on clause in the sundry civil
bill authorizing the President to expend
a sum not exceeding 100000 to maintain
quarantine at ports of danger. The Sur

Let the Tattoo Dc H6nored.

We have tattooed man. Let the name
be honored. Also on the skirmish line I
have heard the tattoo in the drawn battle
when the weary army went to rest knowing
that TO- morrow would be sulphury again.
The tattoo WAS beaten next when the camps
and hospitals too were glad with victory,
and blessed in the heavens by fevered eyes
the stars seemed to shed the gentle music
back. Finally the tattoo dissolved the noble
army which, surviving thousand half
hearted Generals and despairing moral phi
losophers, marched before its long -insultcd
President with modest mien and hallowed
feelings of gratitude to God that it had per-
severed to the last and never mutinied by
the way. November next the tattoo will be
beaten upon another dead rebellion when
the tattoed man walks up tho White House
porch and SAYS MY countrymen. aye!"
