The article presents political updates of the world, as of February 2, 1893. The Board of Health of Louisiana has addressed a somewhat passionate petition to the U.S. Congress against the establishment of Federal quarantine, on both constitutional and economic grounds. The economic argument is difficult to meet seriously. In another update, the synopsis of the forthcoming Irish Home-Rule Bill transmitted by telegraph on Sunday probably contains all the important features of the measure. The list of powers reserved for the Imperial Parliament follows the Constitution of the United States almost on all fours, as indeed did the bill of 1886.
