= VT FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY II. 1873.

The net was drawn yesterday. The Off
GERS commenced about two O'Clock, walking
fifteen women up stairs into the custom
rooms and handing them over to be searched.
Every boat which landed, for about three
hours, was treated in the same manner
that is, all the female portion. Some were
indignant, and appealed to their husbands,
who vainly appealed to the custom officers.
Others wanted to faint away, but after look
ing at the planks and dust concluded not to.
Others wept, laughed, or turned pale, but
none of them were permitted to escape.
During the afternoon about one hundred
and fifty women were confronted by Uncle
Sam, and the old man had a good deal
of fun and made some wonderful discover
les.
For instance, modest little woman, who
was in a great hurry to 20 home to her sick
child, pulled out a few pins and ten yards
of English flannel fell to the floor. A tall
woman, with tears in her eyes, no asserted
that she would sooner chop her head off
than to think of smuggling, uniastened a
pound of tea from her skeleton and asserted
that it must have been placed there by some
designing person. Another one indignant
ly denied - the right of search, -" but after
remaining a prisoner for an hour or two
told the searcher to - take it, and 90 to
grass, throwing package of ribbons and
laces on the floor A lot Of calico was found
on another, and at least ten per cent. of :he
whole number were found to be engaged in
smuggling. The officials were satisfied
with confScating the goods, and it is said
that women who land from Canada during
the day will be marched up stairs and
turned over to the care of the grim female
who heeds no threats and melts at no sighs

to the church at West Sandlake on his last
