FLAGS OF THE PRIZE STEAMERS Several of the letters from Vera Cruz, says the New Orleans Ptcayune, mention a rumor to the effect that the Spanish Consul had made a demand upon Capt. Turner for the captured steamer, Marques de la Habana. This, it will he remem- berrd, was the one that cleared from Ha- vana as Spauiard. She was also cap ,ured with Spanish colors flying The rurnor Is no, very generally credited, nor indeed is it probable. The Habana, like the Miramon, was sailing plratcal, had materials of war on board, and only showed her colors when close pressed. There cannot be a doubt as to her real character in the eyes of the law. As to the General Miramon, she claims no na- tionality, nor does anybody seem to claim her. It does not appear that she. raised the Mexican colors even during the en. gagemenl. She was cruising on her own hook, under the flag only of Commo- dore Marin.
