| The Boston Journal, in noticing the arrest of
some of the parties who were concerned In iLe
CAPTURE Of the Chesapeake, says;
Two Of he pirates have been arrested in st..

in the city several days. but owing 70 the delay In
issuing the reQusitiOns, resulting from the extreme
caution Of the authorities they got wind Of the ef
forts to arrest them and effected their escape
Wade who was rescued at Halifax, was in com.
pany with one of the men who was arrested, but
the officer having warrant for his detention, he
was allowed to 60.
The warrant f,r the arrest Of Braine reached st.
John on Christmas morning. 1t had been applied
for three days before, but was delayed by the
amount Of evidence required by the authorities,
who moved in the matter with extreme deIibera-
ton. The officer neglected to serve 1t even then,
giving as an excuse desire TO 1t end church and
Sraine learning that a warrant had been Issued,
left st. John, going toward Halifax He was fol-
lowed BY the officer tha next day, but with no like
lihood Of overtaking him, until he reached Nova
Scotia, where the warrant for bis arrest would be
| invalid.
| The authorities of New Brunswick have shown
a better spirit than those of Nova SCOTIA, though
| they have not entered into the work Of aresling
the pirates with much zeal. No hope IL entertain

| they will all probably get off TO Bermuda.
The Americans residing in the Provinces have
been active and unremittn2 in the efforts to recap
ture the Cheyapeake and arrest the pirates, d 1t
