Dei-battdixg the Revenue.—Seizubb or the ScitoctfEE St. Kilda. —The schooner St. KUdn, arrived yesterday, under the command of Oapt. Clark, from Apia, where sho was Seized by the British Consul of that place, for smuggling on the coast of Now Zealand. Captain Clark has kindly furnished ue -with the following narrative respecting the seizure of the vessel: —The St. Kilda cleared out of Sydney, on the Ist July last, with a cargo of spirits and tobacco, for the South Sea Islands. 'I'he cargo of bonded goods was landed on tho New Zealand coast, and the vessel left the place at night. On the 28th. October, a schooner came off the port of Apia, South Sea Islands, and the supercargo, named Cobden, landed in a bout, and reported the schooner to be the " Success," making ejine excuse for the vessel not coming in. Thia person purchased goode to a very large amount of Messrs. Schweig and Meull, of Apia, giving bills on an Auckland firm. Captain Clarke, of the ~W. B. Dean, who fortunately went off with the first lots of goods, on behalf of his owners, recognised the vessel as the St. Kilda, which he knew to be a smuggler. Captain Olark, having shipped the gooda, procoeded on shore at 9 a.m., and gave information to tho Britiuh Consul (Mr. Williams) who procured an armed crew nnd went out to tho vessel. In the meantime Captain Clark waited nt the heads as a decor, having the remaining portion of the cargo which the schooner bore down to receive, whon obe was seized and those on board were all undar arrest before (hey had time to oiler any resistance. The master's name was Smith, and when seized, said he had he known Mr. Williams -wae coming to seize them he would have put a bullet through him. Th« vessel was brought into Apia, and the British Consul appointed Captain Clark to her command, and she left the latter place on tho 9th September, consigned to the Collector of Customs, Sydney. The captain, supercargo, and are coming on to Sydney, under arrestTTn, the John Wesley. Captain Clark was formerly master of the Government schooner Sea Witch, of this port, and is well aud. favourably known here. Ho ran a considerable riek in capturing the vessel, and it -was the cause of his losing-tho command of the W. B. Dean, we hope the Government will take his conduct into consideration, and not allow him to be a loser by Lis proceedings for the protection of tho revenue— Sydney Herald,
