FRIDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1871 VOLUME I, NUMBER 50. - Muskegon. We take the following paragraph from the News & Reporter: WM. RENTSKE, of the schooner Two Brothers, reports the loss of JAMES BARCLAY, captain of said schooner by drowning on the night of Tuesday, the 11th inst., while about thirty miles off Milwaukee, during a severe gale which washed overboard the deck-load, taking the captain with it.
