Capturing British vessels.

--Firing into and capturing British vessels under British colors is becoming unpopular at Nassau, N. P. The Yankees are in a fair way to get themselves in trouble. The Nassau Herald, speaking of the capture of the Alice, says:

‘ "The capture of vessels in our waters has been of late of such frequent occurrence that it is useless for us to comment further on the subject, sufficient having been already said. We suppose it will some time be put a stop to — most likely at the cost of the capturers."
