SMUGGLING ON WARShIPS.
Goods landed From the Portsmouth and
the kearsarge Seized Tor Duties.

NORFOLK, Va, May l7.-Major X. G.
Banks, collector of this port having reason
to suspect that there were dutiable goods on
the United States steamer Portsmouth,
called on the conimandant of the yard on
the subject, and later on IA lot of goods
were seized at the nited States Express
office in Portsmouth by United States
Boarding Officer Thomas Lowery and G. =.
FItchett of the office of the collector of
customs.
Mr.. Lowery was at the navy yard gate
when the express wagon with the suspected
goods passed through, and he followed
them to the express office. They consisted
of several eases from the Portsmouth of
hay rum and other goods, including case
of gin, and, it is thought also, 1900 cigars
from the kearsarge.
Major Banks has reported the facts by
telegraph to the secretary of the treasury
and the goods were brought to the custom
house in this city. The Kearsarge, from
which part of the dutiable goods came
