given pratique, which was quite contrary to
the Quarantine Regulations of the Port.
The German Consul, Bushire, replying on

have been laid down, particularly for the port
of Bushire, and requested to be supplied with
a copy of the rules and of the circumstances
in which they were published. He further

steamer she was neither in the port nor in
the Bushire anchorage. The desired inform,
ation was supplied by Captain Williams, and
the incident was satisfactorily closed.
