The NLW-fORk sLA'E-IkADf.
The energy manifested by the United States author
tiles in this city in suppressing the nefarous business
Of fitting out sluvers appears 10 tell with good ehee'
upon those engaged in the business. We hear OF one
case that Of the schooner Angelina, which about
TO leave under command Of Capt. Mark Putnam, In
which the adventure has been reinqushed altogether
She had her cargo of beans rice pork meal tin pans,
slave deck and all on board, when difficulty was ex-
perienced in getting through the Custom-iiouse
Capt. Pitman ,who, by the way, was mate of the brig
Horatio, that landed cargo of slaves on the Cuban
coast. for which Lacola tried made good many
ofers TO the District-Atomey aud the Marshal, such
a. allowing them to overhaul his cargo, and send
deputies on his vessel outside of the Hook, if they
would certify after investigation that he was bound
On legitimate VOYAGE But they told him that he
was too well known and if he attempted to put to sea
before giving bonds for his vessel they would take him
U,fered several parties bat the Collector finding that
they were of the same stripe, refused to take them.
That and the seizure of the Merchant and Ellen 80
frightened him that he has determined to break up the
VOYAGE and sell the vessel and cargo. We under
stand also that il is the intention of the Collector Of
the Port to compel every suspected vessel hereafter to
undergo rigid examination before granting her clear
,nce papers. The mere form, heretofore customary,
will not do hereafter BY these means is hoped that
the business will be efectually broken up.
