Affairs Mt the Custom Iouse

During the last week business has been anything but
brisk at the headquarters Of Hiram Barney, Esq. The
dark threatening appearance of the sky yesterday seemed
TO have depressing effect the spirit Of the employees
who had ample time to note all the changes the weather
and attain great proficiency in signing their names On
small scraps of papertwo methods Of passing the time
which is much in vogue just now down at tho Custom
House, in tunes like the present when mpurtations are
light and business Of all kinds very dull Outside there
were, as usual large crowds Of that semi nautical class
always TO be found about such places as the Custom
House and the Fort Inspectors building They did not
however, appear TO have any employ OF more re-
sponsibe kind than watching the passcrs by and oppa
rently inwardly specializing TO the business which
occupied those who occasionally saunered up the sters
and entered the building. Take them altogether they
were very ar sample Of that large class who have at
present nothing to do, and who may be easily recog
uized as waiting FOR something to turn up
The Secretary of the Treasury has instructed Collector
Barney to permit the rebel interest in conscated vessels
loading or loaded 70 be bonded and the vessels TO epar
on their voyages These instructions are doubtless in
tended TO apply TO those vessels in which known loya
owners have majority Of the interest.
The ship Realm, now lying at Quarantine, has been
seized by Inspector Brown Of tho Surveyors ONCE under
the conscation act she being partly owned the South
The matter win be thoroughly investigated by the
officers during the present week.
