schooner Mary E. Hall. Captain Nash,
bound for David with q general cargo, was
stopped by tho Chiliau steamer Amazon.
This lchooneris 0 small coaster of twenty
seven tons, and Is It rather ridiculous To
suppose that she could have had arms on
board for the Peruvian post. Two blank
shots we're fired from the Amazon on the
night o; the 9Th, when the Amazon sighted
the. schooner, as q signal for Capt. Nash to
heaye to, which he evidently lid not un-
dersIaud and continued on his course. II
is said, also, that he apparently bore away
towards Otoque island and gave the people
on the Amazon the idea that he was trying
to escape. This aroused suspicion, and
two shells were fred at the schooner. The
cargo ives then examined and found to be
general merchandise, destined for David,
IN Department OF Cheriqui. The firing ol
tho projectiles naturally .occasioned con,
siderable alarm among the people on
