A SLAYER Convicted,

The trial at New York of Capt. Jas.
Smith, master of the ship Julia Moul
ton, on charge of piracy, for being
concerned in the slave trade, resulted in
verdict of guilty. 1t was proven tina,
he carried six hundred and forty six
slaves from Africa TO Cuba, and after
wards burnt the ship. The penalty is
death. ...... ....
This is the first conviction under the
law declaring the Slave Trade Piracy.
Within tn. las, fifteen years. there have
been two indictments, on one Of which
the party was acquitted, and on the 9TH
er the accused absconded, forfeiling his
bonds of $4,000. This conviction
forms singular coincidence. Willis,
James Smith is awaiting the highest pen
atty Of the law for HE crimes, the slave
holding Journals are clamoriLg vocifer-
ously for the re-opening Of the Slave
trade, in order to give every wretch in
The land perfect license to commit the
same inhuman and piratical crimes, for
the commission of which Smith is un-
der sentence of death.
