This hut was surrounded with bushes and
briars which nearly concealed it from view
and rendered it almost unapproachable.
As the party, approached the hut six men
darted out and fled with all possible speed,
through briars and brush, closely pursued
by the officer. Two of the six were final
ly captured, al ter much difficult', but the
others escaped. From them it was ascer
tained that the two : men captured in" the
city yesterday morning had returned on ac
count of hunger, intending to get some pro
visions and then go back. The two cap
tured at the hut belong to the German
Barque Sophia Gorbiis and were identified
by Capt. Gorbitz, of that vessel, when they
were brought to the city. 1 ;
There are parties engaged in enticing sail
ors from their vesselsr -seizing their clothing
under some frivcldus pretext and running
them out to this hut,' where they remain
until their vessel leaves the port, when they
are shipped, on some other vessel and their
abductors get the advance money. At least
this is the charge against them. ' We learn
that the shanty-where these men were kept
was guiltless of any sign of furniture or
sleeping accommodations. The two men
captured were almost perished with hunger
and cried like children, begging their cap
tors to return them to their vessels for duty.
They had been in the hut since Thursday
night last. '
