Desertions frasn Vessel.
The Norwegian barque Fingal cleared
from this port for Glasgow a few days
since, and left behind four Scandinavian
seamen, Edward Ejoge, Peter Proisen,
Carl Berry, and John Frosbeig, who, it is
alleged, were enticed to desert their ship by
inducements held out by certain "runners."
This bas long been a source of great worry
and annoyance to masters of vessels, as
well as seriously affecting our shipping in
terestsAttention has been called to the
matter time and again through the columns
of the daily papers, but while the law
seems to reach every other species of
crime and misdemeanor, those wlio make
it a business to entice seamen to desert
their vessels, and thus fall into the bands
of tbe "land sharks" who are ready to
pounce upon them, are supposed to go un
wbipt of justice. It ia too late when tbe
poor man has repented of his ill-advised
desertion to call for help from the Consu
late, as according to the Swedish and Nor
wegian laws he can no c longer be recog
nized as a Scandinavian subject
