Another Mexican Outrage.-The schooner St. Croix, Elliot Ward, master, sailed from this port some time in October last, bound to Aransas Bay in Texas, with colonists and freight. On the arrival of the captain, he was visited by the collector of the place, who, without assigning any reasons, seized the vessel and cargo, and lodged him in prison, where he was confined twenty-nine days, suffering much for the want of proper food and from the loathsomeness of his situation. When liberated, he found the schooner plundered of her sails and stores. The crew having deserted, and fearing another incarceration in prison, he was forced to abandon everything, together with his vessel, and quit the country with all possible expedition! It was in vain to remonstrate and no satisfaction could be obtained. There have been many similar instances of outrage on the part of the authorities on this coast, calling loudly on Government for redress; and we hope that restitution may be made for wrongs, losses and injuries sustained by many of our fellow citizens.-New York Sun.
