The Freight Company's brigantine Sarah and Mary, from Lyttelton, was towed in by the Titan yesterday evening. The Titan proceeded on the same tide to Hokitika. The s.s. Wallabi sailed for Wanganui direct yesterday. The Adieu is still in tbe roadstead, being too far away to admit of her being towed in yesterday. She will probably be brought in early this morning. The s.s. Bingarooma will probably make her appearance in the roadstead early this morning. It is expected that she will be tendered shortly after 6 o'clock a.m. to-day From the time of the arrival of the steamships from the China ports, the Customs authorities have been, states the Sydney Morning Herald, on the alert to intercept the running of dutiable goods. A large quantity of cigars, tea, and other articles were found on board the Singapore, and duly taken possession of. Nor has the Normanby been exempt from the surveillance of the pioper officers connected with tbe Customs department, inasmuch that some 30,000 cigars were taken possession of on 21st October, the goods not being in the manifest.
