Ly view of the alarming spréad of smal!- in Montreal we would like to know
lands numbers of passengers, and quentities of goods, direct from Montreal, every quarter of which is said to be infected, and we submit that in the case of this vessel some quarantine regulation should imme- diately be applied. To ailow passengers and goods to be promiscuously landed direct from the infected city is nothing less than courting infection, and if we do not wart the plague in our midst, it is necessary to exercise some caution against its being brought in the Montreal boat.—-
