No Sign Of Rebel Pirates

Reporting the Civil War banner (decorative purpose)

New York, Sept. 7.—The gunboat Juno, from Fernande, has arrived, and reports that a British ship arrived at the Island, June 17th, with a cargo of coal for the rebel pirates, but sailed the same day for Bahia. The Governor, it is stated, would not allow the pirates to anchor, and the Brazilians were preparing a warm reception for them should they come. The Juno has been cruising in the South Atlantic but has seen no pirates.
