They also declare what persons may be employed on board, and how funds shall be provided for sick and disabled seamen. Under the power to regulate commerce, congress has also passed laws relating to quarantines. The word quarantine, from the Latin quarantina, signifies the space of forty days.
The scare was not creditable; it was like the Italian scare about cholera with its quarantines and fumigations; but it was natural. The theological knowledge and learning were wanting which would have been familiar with the broad line of difference between what is Catholic and what is specially Roman.
The first four outbreaks occurred in the eastern States, and the disease was prevented from spreading to the principal live-stock centers of the country, and the leading stock-raising States by slaughtering the diseased and exposed animals and by county and State quarantines.
After various vision-phone calls, he passed Calhoun and Murgatroyd. They went a short distance and another sentry stopped them. A little farther, and another sentry. "Tight security," said Calhoun. "They know me," said the Minister heavily, "but they are checking my certificate that as of morning I wasn't a para." "I've seen quarantines before," said Calhoun, "but never one like this!
In the Hadyth, or sacred traditions, a saying of Mohammed is recorded: "Fly from the leprous, as thou flyest from the lion."

Although the health laws of the States should be found to need no present revisal by Congress, yet commerce claims that their attention be ever awake to them. Since our last meeting the aspect of our foreign relations has considerably changed.
I thank all the doctors and quarantines; but, more than all, and first of all, and last of all, and all the time, I thank God. In all the six thousand years of the world's existence there has not one thing merely "happened so." God is not an anarchist, but a King, a Father. When little Tod, the son of President Lincoln, died, all the land sympathized with the sorrow in the White House.
