&WORM OP BRITISH MAMA AT TAMPICO.

LIVERPOOL, JUNE 9.
News was brought by the last American mail
packet from New York that Lieutenant Lloyd, the Admiralty
agent of the British meal steamer Dee, with the English snails,
had been captured by General Guys., the revolutionaly
general at Tampico. It appears that Lieutenant Lloyd was
conveyed ashore from the Des, lying off Tampico, with his
mails addressed to the British consul at that plies, in a
native boat, and the crew of the boat being in the interest of
Germ treatheromly conveyed the English officer to a spot
where there wee a camp of the revolutionary general. amyl*
did sot happen to be there, and Lieutenant Lloyd was goat
on to a place where he wee stopping and word was sent to
the latter of the capture that hadl been made. The general,
with his aides-de-camp, immediately rode down very rapidly to
where Lieutenant Lloyd was in custody, and eyed the latter
with sinister and Misses cariosity. The lieutenant, who is a
gentlemanly and couregeons officer, soon convinced
that he belonged to the Royal British Navy, and that
safety and that of his mails could not be violated with
impunity, The general, who Is a tine young man about
tweaty-stx years of age, soon sew the error that
had been committed, entered tato conversation with
his prisoner, offered him a cigar, and gave biro
a guard to proceed with his mails to the British
consulate at Tampico ; but there, however, he was
obliged to remain all night. Tampico was not a pleasant
residence at this time, for the firing was incessant, and matey
houses were riddled with balls. The American consulate at
Tampico was crowded with fugitives claiming the protecticit
of the stars and stripes. The larder of the consulate iris
almost exhausted when Lieutenant Lloyd visited the consul
on official business, but protection was afforded by the latter
to fugitives of all nations, and he and his lady extended their
kindness and horpitality to every one, as tar as their means
would admit. Tim officers in Santa Anna's interest eapr
tared by Oaryas at Tampico were still in close confinement
there. Some of them had been condemned to death. One
had shot his guards, end escaped. It is ,to be hoped elie
the British Admiralty Anent's tact and pluck in profeetkig
the valuable mane of the English merchante will be acknow-
ledged by the British government.
