THE CAPTURE OF MIRAMoN's Wan STEAMERS
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Tribune, writing on the 2lst March,
says:
The impression exists here, in the absence
oil official information, that Com. Turner SUP
posed the treaty with Juarez was ratified
and hence intervened to cut off Miramon's
naval support. His action, however is ap
proved at the Navy Department, where the
expedition is stigmatized as piratical.
No precisely parallel case is on record.
One nearly similar occurred off Hayti over
twenty five years ago, when an American
man>of war fired blank cartridge across the
bows of French vessel which did not ex
hibit her colors. The Frenchman answered
with shot, when boat went from the Amer
lean went alongside to explain that they
were not aware the vessel was a man-of war,
to which the Frenchman replied that his
pennat was flying.
During the troubles in the Gulf in 1858,
our merchantmen often refused to show their
flags, and Secretary Cass rebuked them for
the omission. The whole practice is one of
constitutional comfy, neglect of which no
nation has right to punish by force.
The national vessels of England, France,
and Spain took no exception to these steam
ers passing down to the anchorage, and their
officers are said to deprecate Com. Turner's
summary conduct.

at WAS MY BRoTHER's" while passing
rapidly up the street, 1--WE saw little boy
seated on the curbstone. He was apparently
about five or six years old, and his well
combed hair clean hands and face, bright
though well patched apron, and whole ap-
pearance indicated that he was the child OF
a loving, though INDECENT mother. AS we
looked at him closely, we were struck with
the heart-broken expression of his counte-
nance, and the marks of recent tears on his
cheeks. SO, yielding to an impulse which
always leads us to sympathize with the joys
or sorrows of the little ones, we stopped
and putting'a hand upon his head, asked
what was the matter He replied by hold
ing up his hand, in which we beheld the
fragments of tiny toy-a figure ofa COW.

into the nearest toy shop and buy another"
and we dropped a fourpence into his hand

heart. 1t was Tommy's, and he was dead

exhibit some of the proof that the spirits Of
dead still retain their interest in the affairs Of
this earth that they are capable of affecting

perCeptible to the eye, says; "When we
read of the apparations of the dead. in their
spiritual bodies, and yet wearing clothes sim
liar to those they wore on earth, we think
the argument proves too much For it seems
absurd to suppose that slouched hat and a

tleman in this city consulted Mad SWEET,
some time since, in relation to the proposed
three races between Pacific and Young
America, and in a clairvoyant state she in :
formed him that Pacific would win the three
races. He bet his money on her statement
and won. Yesterday he again visited the
Clairvoyant and desired to know the result
of the fight in England. She said that the
pugilists fought forty-seven rounds, and that
Heenan whipped Sayers without receiving a
