VACCINATION.
(To the Editor of'the Evening Star.) Sic, —It appear^ ;tp me, that your correspondent's— " James Kilgour " —letter in re vaccination is more likely to leave a wrong impression; [Qy.: Unless it equals' "an Order in Council"] than the paragraph he calls in question. The facts are :—O. F. Lethbridge, Esq., was appointed Public Vaccinator for this district, and required to attend at the Surgery at Mr Lethbridge's, Shortland, on the first Wednesday in every month, from 12 noon to 2 p.m. The Government having given every facility, in fact consulted the interest of the public in every possible way ; such as, gratuitous vaccination ; remission to Inspector post free of certificates of successful vaccinations; constant supply of vaccine lymph on the mere application of medical practitioners, &c, &c. So that, ib is not too much to expect officers appointed under such, regulations to attend at the proclaimed place, and give the public the • advantage of the full time to obviate disappointment and breaches of the " Public Health Act, 1572."--I am, &c., E. H, PowEE, Yaccinator Inspector. Thames, Bth January, 1875.
