ACTIVITY OF THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE.-The
slave trade seems to be particularly active at
present. We give an account to-day Of the
capture of q SLAYER by one Of our cruisers off
the coast Of Cuba, with about five hundred Afri-
cans on board. The captured vessel is the Wild
fire, which sailed from this port ON the 18th of
December last, for St. Thomas "and mar
ket'-the market, 1t appears, being the coast
of Africa-where she took in the valuable
freight now in the hands Of the United States
authorities. By-and-by we shall hear of the
Storm King, which escaped from the hands Of
our Deputy Marshals the other day in such
mysterious fashion, turning up somewhere with
another cargo of men and brothers, and, may
hap, running them safely into some port We
learn every day that the seas are swarming
with slavers, plying busy trade, all of which
were fitted out in our Northern ports, and not
one of them in the South-a very remarkable
fact.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1860-05-14

CLOSE OF THE ANNfyERsARIEs-DECLNE OF
THE SPIRIT AND THE FUNDs.-The great religious
term il now fairly over, and the anniversary
business closed up for the present year. One
or two societies, probably, yet remain to wind
up their affairs but the great majority Of
them have departed from us in the odor of
sanctity, and New York Is abandoned to Its
iniquity until next May. Meantime We may
hope for bright skies and vernal weather,
which rarely greet us during the anniversary
term, that period being proverbially dull, wet
and dreary.
The anniversaries this year were character
lied by peculiar dalness and stupidity; the in.
terest which In former years attached to them
seems to have.died out Even the Garrisonians,
whose meetings always attracted large gather
ings, lacked their wonted spirit, and have fallen
of In everything but profanity; and the strong
minded women's meetings, where people usual
ly went for amusement, as to theatre, were
weak and watery this year, in all respects,
save that nice tincture of obscenity which the
strong minded of both sexes are accustomed
to mix with their preambles and resolutions.
But in no particular is the decline of the an
niversary spirit more observable than in the
the woful falling of in the receipts; the golden
props and pillars Of many of the societies are
shaken almost to their foundation; and If the
funds continue to fall off in this way, their occu
patton will very soon be gone. 1t is alike
remarkable and significant that the greatest
falling off in the treasury is to be found in
those societies which deal most largely In the
anti slavery agitation; the Almighty Niger has
been almost the death of them-they have
taken him in such copious, doses
We have prepared table which shows that
the receipts of eight societies with whose pro-
ceedings the niger question is more or less
mixed up have declined over $4,000 from 1858
to 1859, while those of seven societies which at
tend to their specific business and let the mig
ger alone show an increase of Sll7,0 in the
same period. This fact speaks for itself, and
needs no comment. The following is the table
of receipts of the leading societies which have
just closed their annual Iabors:-

The INSTRUCTION N SIcuy.-Although Il Is
dificult to get at the precise facts Of the Insur-
reciionary war In Sicily, owing to the jealous
precautions OF the government, there are rea-
sons for believing that the insurgents are gain
ing rather than losing ground. A reyol, In
which the royal troops lose two battles out Of
three, and which necessitates the removal of the
capitol, does not look as IL II would be AZ easily
qAelled as The Nespoltan journals would have
us believe. At all events, efforts made BIZ the
authorities to prevent information leaving the
country show that the facts of the s,ru zele do
not tally very closely with the versions they
give Of them. They assert, for instance. tina,
the trouble is nearly at an end and that only q
few hundred insurgents remain to be pursued.
And yet we have from another source the state
meot that the garrison at Palermo, though
numbering twenty thousand men, are afraid to
proceed into the interior.
Unless the government commanders exhibit
more energy than has % yet been displayed,
the days q the Bourbon dynasty are numbered.
Let the insunection last another month, and
the flames Of revolt win spread to Naples, and
render II impossible for the mercsnsries In the
royal pay 10 subdue t. The EeapoIitan jour
