These old gentlemen—seated, like Matthew at the receipt of custom, but not very liable to be summoned thence, like him, for apostolic errands—were Custom-House officers.

He pitied me, but said it would be impossible to avoid the vigilant custom house officers in New-Orleans, and that detection would subject him to punishment, and his vessel to confiscation.

他同情我，但说要避开警惕的新奥尔良海关官员是不可能的， 如果被发现， 他将受到惩罚， 他的船只将被没收。

As most of these old Custom-House officers had good traits, and as my position in reference to them, being paternal and protective, was favourable to the growth of friendly sentiments, I soon grew to like them all.

由于这些海关的老官员大多具有良好的品质，而且我对他们的态度是慈父般的和保护性的，有利于增进友好感情， 所以我很快就喜欢上了他们。

It is a pious consolation to me that, through my interference, a sufficient space was allowed them for repentance of the evil and corrupt practices into which, as a matter of course, every Custom-House officer must be supposed to fall.

对我来说，这是一个虔诚的安慰， 通过我的干预，他们有足够的空间来忏悔邪恶和腐败的做法，当然，每个海关官员都必须堕落。
