SIINDERLAND, a seizure of
u pw arNdps E
of L R D
s.N,o,fv. contrabands. —Yesterdaytobacco was made in
this harbour, on board of the brig Ebenezer, Mills, on
her arrival from Amsterdam, by Mr. George Wray,
acting tide-surveyor. One of the crew, m,
ulooi b'
med William
Farrow, admitting that the tobacco had been secreted
by him he was taken into custody.
AN ELOPEMENT STOPPING TELELEGEAPH. On
Thursday a Mr. Kerrison, of Yarmouth, who keeps a
cuff, e shop (one of those coff-e-shops in the country
a ,nducted
on the total abstinence from all sorts of
alcoholic drinks" principle), applied, in a spasm of pre-
cipitation, at the Yarmouth station, to ascertain if his
cars sposa had not shor'ly before booked herself and
her b enelboxes for Cambridge, Kerrison suspecting that
she had faithlessly flown thitherward to a paramour, a
son of the glue-pot and plane, who had recently been
his lodger, but who, having obtained work as a journey-
man carpenter, was now plying his vocation at Cam-
tridge. Kerrison, with piquant pain and precision, de-
scribed the lady and the two damsels, who he suspected
had accompanied her, all of whom were in plaid dresses
and identically decked bonnets. A gallant guard at the
station informed him that he had a perfect recollection
of the fugitives, then on their way to Norwich. Kerri-
son hereupon calmed, and commanded the equipment of
a special train, but his ecstasy knew no bounds on being
informed that by means of a whisper and a wire he would
be at Norwich before the fugitives. The telegraph was
set to work and sent on its electric detenu, and the flying
the instant and in spite of protestations and
fair, upon Nor wch '
implorings, were detainee:
escortedi at
them until the wronged
Kerrison rushed up, and back to
mouth, glorifying the telegraph as a godsend and as a
work of miracle in the maintenance of his rights marital.
