A Bosque Detection.

--Officer John Reece, of Capt. McCubbin's staff of detectives, yesterday morning arrested Lieut. George Brown, of Maryland, on the charge of committing various acts under cover of the false representation that he was a detective officer of the Confederate Government. Upon the person of Brown Reece found, among other papers, a forged order, purporting to be signed by Gen. Winder, giving authority to certain parties to search houses for stolen property. After a cursory examination at the Provost Marshal's office, Brown was committed to Castle Thunder.
