THE SLAVE TRADE IN New York.
The increase of the slave trade, and
the fact that all the vessels engaged
therein appear to have cleared out of
the port OF New York, begin to at
tract attention at Washington and
other quarters 1t can hardly be con-
ceived that if the officers of the law,
charged with the duty of preventing
the departure of all vessels bound on
Illegal errandS, did their duty, our port
would not be diSgraced as it now is,
by being made to rank as the grand
depot of the slave trade. That they
have not done their duty in all cases,
has beer lately proved; and that they
have neglected their duty for corrupt
considerations, has been put on record
by the dinmissal OF two deputy United
States marShals, on proved charges to
that effect But we believe that we
do not overState the matter when we
announce that an average Of two yes
sells each week clear out of our harbor
bound for Africa and human cargo I;
and we have received information,
which we shall verify and publish, as
soon as possible, to the effect that the
price for the clearance Of q sloUe,'
is as well known to those in the trade
as the price of barrel of pork
1t is said that certain amount of
gold is placed In a locker in the cabin ];
the officers board the ship and COM
mence search for materials arguing
the intention of the vessel to carry
slaves. They search all the lockers
especially, and suddenly find the par
ticular one in which the gold-com-
monty ranging FROM $4,000 to 81, 900,
according to the size Of the vessels
concealed. This, the inference being
that it is at least part of a sum design
ed to purchase negroes from the King
of Dahomey, the officers at once pro-
ceed to confscate; but failing to find
any other evidence of trading
purpose on board, they merely remove
the treasure and offer no further resis-
tanee to the departure Of the ship
This was the course said to nave been
followed by the deputy U. S. naarshals
who have been dismissed; bnt of
course none of those still retained
could possibly be suspected OF pursu-
ing like course Let US hope that
Marshal Isaiah Rynders, now that his
eyes have been opened, will be more
active and energetic in seeing that his
subordinates more faithfully discharge
their duties. N Y Leader.

fsent few cases Of greater atrocity aud
horror than this most thurman and
revolving violation Of hslaws of your
country, and Of the Great Ruler of the
Universe. for which you must soon
justly pay the forfeit Of your life
The crime is of such an aggravated
character, and your guilt so certain
and incentestable, that you must not
hope anything from Executive elem
ency. The court, therefore, would
urge you TO earnestly and sincerely
devote the little time that may yet
remain to you Of life, to repentance
and preparing to meet your last and

The sentence o. the law and court,
is, that you be taken from this place
