master or the owner of the vessel, in a penalty equal to the value
of the cargo, and with sureties to the satisfaction of such
collector, that the cargo shall be delivered at the destination for
which it is cleared or permitted, and that no part thereof shall be
used in affording aid or comfort to any person or parties in
