FlgUtlng between Amerlcniis and Mexicans, New York, 7. A special from Galveston Gal-veston states that the captain of the bark Brothers, recently attacked by Mexicans off Santa Anna bar, fought with what few arms tho vessel had, and by his report killed eight, but was finally compelled to take to bis boat. Tho Harvest Home, also attacked by Mexicans was more fortunate than the Brothers. The Captain of the Harvest Home was determined not to surrender as long as he had a hand left to wield a cutlass or pull a trigger, and accordingly prepared for a stubborn stub-born defence. As the Mexicans pulled alongside the vessel, he opened a heavy fire of small arms. His crew fought valiantly, and although the Mexicans once or twice succeeded in gaining the deck, they were finally compelled to tako to their boats with a loss of eiht or ten killed, and retreated to the shore. |
