The carpenter who caught the smallpox while working in Lower Georgestreet, opposite the house of On Chiog, where the disease first broke out, died today. It is announced that the Government intend proclaiming all China ports infected, and all vessels coming from thence will be placed in quarantine whether reported infected or clean. It is further stated that the steamship Ocean,- due here with 490 Chinese, will be placed in quarantine, and a restrictive Chinese bill will probably be passed before she is released.
