SMUGGLING IN New York. Recent develope
ments conn ected with the N. York Custom House
shows that the smuggling of English wooden goods
has been carried there to great extent for a
considerable time past. The trade in wooons has
been monopolized by Englishmen, and the Ameri-
can merchant, finding that he could not compete
with them successfully, has abandoned the business.
Seuen eighths Of the amount Of importaons in this
description of goods has been and still is, done by
Engishmen, residing in the City and in Great Bril-
tain, who, it is affirmed, connected and linked
together in the trade; and large share of the goods
are introduced without the payment OF duties, by
means of perjury, and forgery By avoiding the
payment of duties, they enabled to undersell
the honest American merchant, who is thus driven
from trade. During Swartwouts administration,
the business was carried on to an alarming extent
but now as a CT ne has been obtained to these me-
farous transactions, is right 10 presume the prop
er remedy will be applied. The custom house de-
pendants have been taught that it their duty to
