SAN DrEoo CAL, May 1.-The steamship Itasa,
which vas seized yesterday by the United States
marshal, got s~ay last evening. taking deputy
marshal, who was on board, with her. The
United States marshal was not aware evidently
that his authority was TO be disregarded by the
captain Of the ftata. for at the time Of her Sail
ing he was in quest Of the schooner Robert and
Minnie, which craft he had been ordered TO
take at any point outside Of the Jurisdiction Of
Mexico.
There is no doubt that the rife. and .mmu-
milton on board of the Robert and Minnie we're
INTENDED for the Chilian insurgents and that
the calling Of the Itata at this port was for the
object of procuring these arms. The q. Il
marshal arrived at this port about midnighs
last night with the ne~s that the schooner had
eluded him. One Of the deputy mar
shals, who was stationed ut the mouth Of
the harbor in q sail boat 10 keep . lookout, says
that when the 1tata passed. out the pilot was
standing between two armed ChiliAns, while
four cannon guarded both bow aud stern He
also says that at least eighty armed ChiliAns
were drawn up on the deck ready for action.
