THE 'FLYING CLOUD.'
To tha Editor of the Dadct Southern Citosg. Str,-— ls it not time that »ome of the authorities should interfere in the matter of the 'Flying Cloud,' as I have it from the best authority that the passengers are determined to take the brig to sea first: chance— perhaps to-night? It is even rumoured that the orevr have been bribed. Ifc is »n act of piracy. Why not have all the sails brought on shore and taken in charge of the police ?— I am, &c, Akgus.
April 23, 1867. [If the ' Flying Cloud ' affair stands open another day, it is st proof that the Collector of Customs is utterly incompetent. Should tha passengers carry off tne ship, several parties must be prosecuted criminally.— Ed. D.S.O.]
