King. The following has been received by the Yankee Government in reference to the new steamer to be commanded by Captain Semmes: United States Consulate, Liverpool, October 18, 1864. Sir. The English screw steamer Sea King, built atn command of Captain Cobbett. Mr. Sisco, United States consular agent at Dover, says he has reliable information that Captain Semmes is to have this vessel. From what is known at this office about the Sea King, independent of the information of Mr. Sisco, I have not the least doubt she is the vessel the steamer Laurel is to meet, and that Captain Semmes, with the officers, men and guns, taken out in the Laurel, will be transferred to her. Their place of meeting is not known to me. The Sea forged the signature purporting to be that of a military officer to the affidavits accompanying pretended votes of New York soldiers, is premature. He has not yet acted upon their cases. Captain Semmes is expected to have arrived at Havana.
