The New York Courier Iss Eiats Unis re-
late5 the following
The arrival Of the AragO was marked by al
incident which serves 70 show that the vigi-
lance Uf tue government agents is not al empty
ord. Just when the passengers were pre-.
pairing TO dissmhaTk, a cu5tom-house Cfhcer
noticed one Of our COmpatrjo 5, whose pocket
suspiciousiV bloated, seemed to invite an eX-
pioration. He accordingly required the tray-
eler to display its contents, which was done
without hesitation. AZ first nothing was dis
covered but invoices and business papers; but
tbe veIy beart Of the parcel the wdtcoful
eye OF the Official detected letter, the super
scription Of which bore the tell tale word
Bsaure sardl
With such proof 1t is suPerfuous to talk OF
explanations. The rash passenger is seized,
ana dragged to private cabin. IherepOrt OF
the discovery expands with the rsPtdlty peca-
liar to that kind Of news. The officers press
around the prisoner and plunge wildly ino
cohjectures as to the Importance Of the capture
about to be made.
Meantime our felloW-countTym2n manages

what has hEppened to him? They thrust uu-
der bis eyes the treacherous letter, and he be-
gins at last to understand. That fatal miss!ve

should net forget to prepare their gFouLd and put

last fall. They already see the wisdom Of this
move. We have corn, wheat and rye in abun-
dance in the South, indeed we have them in
larger quantities this year than ever before /;
and this will enable chem to commence raising
their own horses, mules, pork and beef, the
very fret step to render us independent OF the
North, ami without such Independence the
