ed BY thirty armed Mexicans, who ran the
vessel ashore, stripped her Of her cargo, and
OF every thing valuable, and then burnt her.
The captain escaped by getting into the
woods, taking canoe from the shore, and
reaching the Spilfre ten miles out at sea. The
Spit6re proceeded to Nautla, and fred upon
