GUNBOAT SUPPOSED TO BE BUILT FO
THE REBELS SEIZED AT LIVERPOOL.
THE RELEASE OF THE PETERHOFF DE
MANDED AT ONCE,

NEW YORK, April 21.-The steamship City
of Baltimore, from Liverpool on the 18th inst,
has arrived.
The gunboat Alexandria has been seized by
the customs authority at Liverpool, ON the
supposition of being built for the Confeder.
ates.
Lord Lyons has been instructed to, demand
the release OF the prize steamer Peterhef, with
compensation, and without any delay of the
prize court But IL there shall be alleged any
legal ground OF capture, this case, like all
others, must follow the ordinary course.
1t is reported that two well known Amer
ican merchants had arrived in London, to dis
pose Of two millions sterling six per cent. u S.
bonds, and with part of the proceeds to buy up
vessels building in England for the Co.feder-
ates. And it is also reported they have been
authorized to negotiate loan of from ten to
twenty millions sterling.
The Confederate loan touched three per cent.
discount, but rallied to from one to one -and-a-
half premium.
The American Consul at Hamburg has re-
fused to attest and put his signature to a note-
rial document, because the name of Schoder
and Company, who negotiated the Confederate
ioin. appeared in the document.
Additional Information has been obtained
about the new gunboat Alexandria. She was
built by Miller Il Co., and recently launched,
ard seized in the Liverpool docks by the Gus
toms authorities, on suspicion she was intended
for the rebels. The matter will be fully inses-
tigated before any proceeding are taken beyond
the detention, of the vessel.
The London Star considers this event an eX-
ceedingiy good omen, and demands the prose-
Cution of the builders.
The correspondence between the owner Of the
Peterhof and the Foreign Office is published.
Lord Russell says an examination of the pa
pers having satisfied the Government there was
no prima facie ground of capture, and that the
seizure was wholly unjustifiable, have in.
structed Lord Lyons to make an immediate
representation of the circumstances to the
Washington Governmen, and If there is no
legal ground for the capture, he, it is alleged,
is instructed to press for the release Of the yes
sci and cargo, with compensation.
The Union Emancipation Society of Man.
chester have held a meeting to protest against
the building of war ships for the rebels. A
memorial was adopted calling upon the GOV
eminent to vindicate the honor of England By
stopping such proceedings.

THE GREAT IMPORTANCE OF THIS SUCCESS.
The following information was received here
on the night before last, in two days from
Mnliken's Bend, (on the Mississippi, near
Ficksburg,} having come in shorter tine than
dispatches were ever before received from that
point. Viz:
On the night of the 10th Admiral Porter sue
ceeded in running the ' vicksburg batteries with
seven fine gunboats of his squadron and three
transports. The Benton, his flagship, got op-
posite the upper battery-headng the line of
yes sels-befors the rebels opened fire, which
they con unued (from IL p. NJ until a. M,
upon each succeeding vessel as it passed them.
The only damage done US was the firing of the
Henry Clay, one OF the transports, and the tenn.
porarv disabling Of the Forest City, another of
them. and shot through the Benton's hull
Our loss was but one man killed and two or
three wounded.
The rebels fire was far less effective than
was anticipated. They burned two or three
houses in the town, as our SQUADRON was
passing to light the river, SO as to enable their
artillerists to get good views Of our steamers
as they went down within range of their gums
On reaching WaTrenton, Admiral Porter
bombarded that village, with what effect is no,
