IL Lieut. Hunter, of the Navy, in command OF
the u. S. Steamer Scourge, has been prosecuting a
series OF brilliant military operations on his own re-
sponsibility. While Com. Perry was making the
most extensive preparations for an investment OF
Avarado, by land and water, Lieut.. Hunter appear
ed before the city and demanded its surrender CIV
ing thirty minutes for reply to his summons, and
threatening at the expiration of that time, if the
surrender was not made TO open fire from the
Scourge upon the town, and to order the troops to
advance. The surrender was made forthwith and
leaving the place in command of Mldshipman Tenn
pie, with five men. 1t. Hunter next proceeded to
Flatocalpam, another Mexican port town, con-
tanning about 1000 inhabitants The immediate
and unconditional surrender OF this place was also
demanded, and the demand at complied
with When the American force, under Commo-
dore Perry, consisting OF three Steamers frigate
five schooners, three ships, and brig arrived off
Alvarado, the surprise and disappointment of the
squadron great on discovering the American
coiors already hoisted the forts. The commo-
dore immediately arrested our gallant commander,
for having attacked Alvarado without his orders
and Lieut. Hunter is therefore to be tried by court
martial for taking the place. The whole enterprise
OF the Lieutenant is called quite farcica, because
probably there was no sacrifice of human life but
we prefer such {" farces " to the tragedy" that was
enacted at Vera Cruz and should be glad could we
have succession OF them to the close of the cam
