Lortinas’ operations in Texas are full v

then captured Brownsville and tuned it

the U. 8. steamer Michigan, arrested a
Mr. Colz, an officer in the Confederate
army and leader of a company to seize
the steamer Michigan and release the

his arrest Colz confessed, implicating
six prominent citizens of Sandusky, who

She was no sooner made fast than she
was also seized and her passengers
thrust into the hold of the Parsons. The
ladies were passed up stairs afjef wood

the rebel prisoners confined there. By
a special treaty with Great Britain the
United States is prevented from'having
more than one war veesel armed. with
one gun upon Lake Erie, and hence a
protest was made by England against'
the Michigan's armament, which was
eighteenguns. As the Michigan is con
fined to the surveilanco of Johnson’s Is
lsnd, it is feared that the rebel steamers'
will ravage our commerce, and perhaps ■
lay Buffalo under contribution. «
