YARMOUTH CAUTION TO TRADESMEN ---- On Monday evening, Mr R.D. FOWLER, draper of the Market-place, had several packages of goods lying outside his shop door, and whilst his assistants were taking them in, two of the most portable were stolen. Each parcel contained goods to the value of about 5 Pounds. One of them was traced down an adjoining row to a house of ill-fame, and found secreted in a privy, but the other has not yet been discovered. The thieves have escaped for the time. We regret the loss which Mr FOWLER has sustained, but we certainly think it is a bad habit into which many of our traders have fallen of allowing their goods to remain outside their doors so long, and frequently after dark. The Ishmaelites of our streets and distressed poor, moreover, should not be unnecessarily tempted by the thrusting of unguarded portable goods in their way.
