The schooner GRAND TURK, from the seaboard, where she has been absent for the past two years, passed through the Welland Canal a day or two since, en route for this port. Capt. Starkweather, her former master, but late of the First Michigan regiment, left here a few days since to join her and resume his old position. Capt. F. is not only a courageous soldier, but a true sailor. --- Detroit Free Press
