This quarantine was one for the pur pose of making the colored people of that place get vaccinated, and was not a quarantine on account of the small pox.' The fact about James City, Is, that so far only three cases of small pox have developed there. And the people in James City are now pretty nearly ail vaccinated. -, ' Reports of the D. D.

At no time has Small Pox at any place in this Slate assumed aa epidemic form or spread beyond the oontrol of the Health Authorities. This disease, although eaiiily conta gious Is the most easily control lod of all dangerous contagions. , It Is a fact that the largor cities of the country are rarely free from Pmall Pox; but the health authorities a-i control It that none but the ruckle; an.l Ignorant run any appreciable risk by vMliig theso Therefore no one hesitates to visit Norfolk or other bonlito centers of Its size on account of ttaall Pox litre.

They were at no time in danger of contagion, although during this week occupied was tha only small pox case which has not been promptly removed beyond the city lim its. In this case the patient was allowed to remain by advice of the attending physician. It should be further remarked that this case was a white woman, who had never been vaccinated, and her resi dence was close to the place where a negro with small pox was In hiding from the authorities. H It should be further stated that this person is the only white person who has had small pox in New Bern. f ; The following signed statements from leading physicians will give the small pox situation from the medical point of views. ' The county hoard of health has al ready made public Us statement. To whom It may concern: ' i -, I am reliably informed from the Supt. and Assistant Bupt. of Health of Craven county that there Is not a case of small pox in New Bern, all the cases found in the county having been Immediately re moved to the pest houses, which is ad mirably situated for the cure of these cases, It not being located on a public road or one that leads anywhere else but to the pest house. The ultra precaution ary measures adopted by oar Sanitary board while necessary In every commu nity have unnecessarily alarmed the laity, and caused neighboring towns to adopt quarantine measures that In my opinion are thoroughly unnecessary In the premises.'"-; J, ' ROBT. & PRIMROSE, M.D. ' The small pox situation seems well in hand.
