THE RECENT ELOPEINiIN

HIGH LIFE.

We have it in our power to announce that all the mystery sip •
pertaining to the disappeaarance of Lady Adela Villiers, the
youngest daughter of the Esrl and. Countess of Jersey, is now
cleared up, the information regarding the fair fugitive
.having been
brought to town by the Hon. Capt. Frederick Villiers, from the
north, on Saturday afternoon. •
The.plani of the " runaways" were so well arranged that, thanks
to the railway, to overtake them was an impossibility. It seems
that, unknown to the Earl of Jersey's family, a clandestine cons.
municatinn has been maintained for some months past by the
youthful lady and her gallant admirer, but so secretly that not the
slightest suspicion was excited even among the closest attendants
of her Ladyship. A strict investigation was, on the return of tae
Countess of Jersey from Arundel Castle, instituted, the head of the
police at Brighton being present; and although not the least clue
was to be obtained from the governess of the young lady, the lady's
Maid, whe invariably accompanied her ladyship in her promenades,
said that a tall fair gentleman, of military bearing, had occasionally,
to all appearances accidentally, met Lady Adela. when, as they
conversed in French, she could not comprehend the substance of
their discourse.

It has subsequently transpired that shortly after five o'clock on
Wednesday evening, as Lady Adele left the lodge gates, a public
fly was in readiness, by which her Ladyship, in company with a
gentleman, was conveyed to the railway terminus, and proceeded
to town by the half.past five o'clock train for London. On their
arrival in the metropolis they must have gone direct to the Bir-
mingham Railway at Euston-square, and left by the mail train for
Newcastle, en route to Carlisle, on their way to Gretna-green ;
so that when it was discovered at East Lodge, Brighton, that Lady
Adele had so unaccountably disappeared, the lovers were on the
road to Scotland. It was also ascertained that her Ladyship re-
mained in the fly at the station till the bell rang for the train to
start. The Hon. Captain Frederick Villiers having heard on
Thursday morning of the absence of his sister, immediately started
by express to Gretna, it having been only surmised that Lady Adele
had eloped. On his arrival at Carlisle he there gained the infor.
mation that a young lady, answering exactly in description to her
Ladyship, and a gentleman, had passed through that place. Orr
his arrival at Gretna-green, or more properly Graitney, the ren-
dezvous of fugitive lovers, the Honourable Captain was informed
that on Thursday afternoon, at four o'clock, a marriage was so •
lemnised and lawfully concluded between Captain Charles Parke
lbbetson and Lady Adela Coriander Marie 'Villiers. Thus within
twenty-three hours after their departure from Brighton the nuptial
ceremony was performed.
It was understood that after the performance of the ceremony
the Captain and her Ladysip repaired direct to Edinburgh.
Captain Charles Parke lbbetson entered the 4th (Royal Irish)
Regiment of Dragoon Guards as cornet, 24th April, 1835, and in
June, 1837, purchased a lieutenantcy in that regiment. He sub-
sequently changed into the 11th Hussars (Prince Albert's Own),
in. which regiment he ,holds the commission of a captain of
the date of June, 1843. We understand that the gallant
officer is son of Mr. Henry Ibbetson, of the firm of Ibbetson and
Son, proctors and :notaries of Great Knight Rider-street, and of
Chester-terrace, Regent's Park.
We learn that a letter was received by the Earl of Jersey on
Saturday morning, announcing the marriage, but it was not until
the evening that the Earl and Countess were possessed of all the
details of the elopement.

The Hon. Captain Frederick Villiers arrived at an early hour
in the afternoon on Saturday from Carlisle, and was bearer of all
the information that could be obtained at Gretna.
Prince Nicholas Esterhazy and Viscount Villiers, shortly after
the Hon. Captain's arrival, proceeded by the express train to
Brighton, to acquaint the Earl and Countess of Jersey with all the
circumstances rtlative to the marriage.
The Earl- and Countess of Jersey and Lady Clementina Villiers
were expected to arrive in town yesterday, from Brighton.:
It is rumoured that her Ladyship and the Captain first met at
Almack's during the last season.

SEIZURE OF TWO THOUSAND
POUNDS WORTH OF ILLICIT SPIRITS OF NITRE.
A seizure of an almost unprecedented character was, on Satur-
day last, concluded and communicated to the Commissioners of
Excise, by Mr. C. A. Davis, one of the detective officers of her
Majesty's Customs. It will be in the recollection of the public,
that, in the month of July last, the same indefatigable officer made
a capture in the Globe-road, Stepney, of a most complete and ex-
tensively fitted distillery, together with upwards of 1,000 gallons
of spirits, 52 over proof; and the materials alone, exclusive of the
spirits, amounted to forty waggon loads. In the course of his
search certain documents fell into the hands of Mr. Davis, from
which a clue was obtained that some thousand gallons of spirits
had been recently removed from the premises ; and from that time
to the present his eXertions have been unceasing to discover where
this immense stock had been deposited.
It appeared that in 1844 this officer found a large still on the
premises of persons going by the name of " Berkeley and C 0.," of
Grove-lane, Holloway; but in consequence of the still being unset
he could not legally seise it, but before leaving the house he wrote
his name upon it. This still was afterwards found on the premises
In the. Globe.road. The solicitor of Berkeley threatened the
Officet with • actions for trespass, but none were ever entered. On
searching the premises in Globe-road, I documents were
found from the same solicitor to the parties there, clearly showing
that Bayley, Brothers, (the name they went by in the Globe-road).
were identical with " Berkeley and C 0.," -of the Holloway-road.
This solicitor had drawn up certain legal documents, by which
Bayley, Brothers, had been enabled to mortgage the spirits to
various persons for large sums of money, and the possession of
them at once pointed out to whom the spirits had been consigned.
After watching the removal of the spirits from- place to place,
Mr. Davis proceeded to the premises of Mr. George Firmin, tar-
taric-acid maker, in Rupert-street, Goodman's-fields, where he
found 57 carboys, containing 18 gallons each, of spirits of nitre,
which he seized. He also found 36 empty carboys, which, from
marks upon them, proved to have been received from the same
source. He then went to the warehouse of Foote and Co., of
Batterseai where he got 19 carboys of the same kind of spirits.
From Foote's he, went to Price's, also, of Battersea, where he
found 9 carboys more. As each seizure in some degree assisted
the officer in his search, he proceeded from place to place,
-with the fullest confidence. In the stable of a man
named Smith, in the Maze, Tooley-street, concealed
in some straw, he found 10 carboys and 2 casks of mo-
lasses; and from thence he proceeded to St. John's Wood.road,
where, in a stable belonging to Abraham Grey, he found a similar
number. At the house of a cornchandler named Thistle, in Wap.
ping, he added 12 carboys to his already valuable prize, consisting
of 12.5191b5. of this costly spirit, which, exclusive of duty, has
been valued at no less a sum than 2,000!.
Its addition to the seizure made by Mr. Davis on the premises of
Foote and Co., the Board of Excise have given directions to seise
the whole stock of spirits on the premises, as, from documents in
the officer's possession, these parties, it appeared, have been the
Principal dealers, although they only professed to carry on the bu-
siness of vinegar merchants. It also appeared that some time
since the board received notice that a great increase of the article
of nitre was on sale in the market, and sold at a much cheaper
rate than:it could be legally manufactured for, but their officers
Were unable to account for the fact of it being so. This defalcation
of duty is now apparent, and there is every probability that the par.
ties wilnoson be brought to justice.

Proceedings are already commeacei against the parties for pe.
■alties to a most:enormous extent, for harbouring this illegal article.
Had the duty been paid on merely what has now been seized by
Mr. Davis, it would have amounted to upwards of SON.
To avoid suspicion In the removal of the spirits from the dis.
tillery the carboys were taken out separately, and deposited in the
warehouses of a common carrier, near the City.road Basin, and
from thence removed by the carrier's carts, as ordered by Bayley
himself, the more securely to ensure their delivery unobserved by
any district officers.

To show that a visit from the Crown officers had been antici•
pated, as a precautionary measure each workman employed upon
the premises of the distillery was provided with a blank letter,
with the exeeption of the signature of the holder, and the receipt
of it was at once understood that the sender was " in trouble,"
or detected in an illegal act; and if either bail or money was
required for his liberation, he had nothing to do but date the
same, and send it to the before .named member of the legal pro.
fession, when every assistance would be rendered him, the advo-
cate ostensibly only attending in his professional character.
Other important details of this original system of smuggling will
appear in a few days, comprising some of the largest firms In
London.

SERIOUS RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
A very alarming collision, unattended with fatal conse-
quences, happened on the Eastern Counties line of railway at
the Waltham. cross station,yesterday morning, about 5 o'clock.
It appears that a truck of the goods train, due about 2
a.m., had become disabled ; this caused a stoppage on the line,
and before it was finally cleared the fish train from Yar-
mouth, to which a second class carriage and truck with sheep,
malt, kc., were attached, arrived, and were detained close to
the station. The mail train, due at 5 o'clock, being now ex-
pected, a porter with a red light was sent down the line for
near 400 yards, but from some unexplained cause the engine
was.not stopped sufficiently in time to prevent its running
with terrific force into the first train. The effects were the
destruction of trucks containing sheep, and the overturning
of the second-class carriage. There were oaly two passengers
in this carriage, Captain Lawrence, R.N., a director of the
Norfolk Railway, and a drover in charge of the sheep.
The carriage was lifted several yards into the air, anti fell
into a ditch some distance from the line.

The engine of the mail train was completely overturned;
the driver and stoker miraculously escaped without a bruise,
and neither passengers nor carriages were in the least injured.
Shortly after the accident Mr. Kennard, one of the Direc-
tors, was at the station, and sent off to London for Dr. tleaf-
freson, of Bartholomew's Hospital; and, in his absence, Dr.
Bennett, of Finsbury-place, came down by a special train to
attend upon the sufferers, who had been removed to the New
Inn,

The line was opened and cleared fur the train within a few
hours of the accident.

SERIOUS 'ILLNESS OF THE BISHOP OF CARLISLE.
—lt is with extreme reg►et we have to announce the very serious
illness of the Lord Bishop of Carlisle. His Lordship's indisposition
commenced about ten days since. and on Tuesday morning became
so aggravated as to excite the utmost alarm. A consultation of
his Lordship's medical attendants, Sir John Fife, Dr. Goodfellow,
and Mr. Page, we hear, was held early this morning, and it is with
extreme sorrow we learn that no amendment has taken place in his
Lordship's condition.—Carlisle Patrioi, Nov. 8.
