Small-Pox.
[Per Press Association.] Auckt \nd, August 19. The Waihora was admitted to pratique yesterday, and the passengers reached town at 4 o’clock.
A Wellington paper says—“ A passenger by the Ringarooma from Melbourne informs us that there was not even a pretence of examining that vessel by a Health Officer made on her arrival at the Bluff. On the Ringarooma’s arrival at Port Chalmers, a very perfunctory examination was made, but it was at an early hour in the morning, and those passengers who did not chose to get up were not examined at all. So much for the precautions alleged by Ministers to have been taken to guard against the introduction of infection.”
