On the sth, I law a mob collating in Ward and Lockier 's birth ; it appeared that Fitzgerald was one of the chief perfons. Soon after the mob col lated, Ward and Lockier came forth before one hundred and odd men, along the bay up the fore hatchway, and loon after the (hip's company fol lowed what they did. On Sunday, after bending fail, I law Fitzgerald in different parts of the !hip with a number ofpeople. About one o'clock the mob rote in Lockier, Fitzgerald, and Che fterman's births, and the ports were fhortly after lowered down. It appeared to me that Fitzgerald and Chefterman were the ringleadsrs. I could not bear any of them but Cummins, who ftept before the mob, and Paid to one of the officers, Mr. Pugfon, who was calling off the netting, • hang the rafcal.' He ran to the tore ladder and endeavoured to unmip it, but he. could not. During Sunday it appeared to me that a number of men, to the amount of two or three hundred, came to Fitzgerald's and aiefter man's birth, at different times of the day, which proved clearly to me they were the moD aaive. When the men went to the birth, they looped down, and from all of them making that motion, it appeared to me they were taking the oath or paying the word. It appeared to me Riley and Fitzgerald were meffmates, by their continually going up and down the ladder. On Tuefday, the Bth, there was an order by the Captain and Offi cers to get Tome ftrong beer on board and broach ed. Soon after it was broached, Loekier and Ward came on the main 'deck, and gave orders that no beer fhould be drank; Taylor gave the fame order. Fitzgerald Paid on Sunday, after the chimin w ere given, 4 Now the fun Alines on us all at laity. and then went up the fore ladder.

Q !.. by the pilaw Floverakl.--Who was the per fon fold the fun flines upon us qoya—rThe pri toner did not profs this queftion.) (4 . 6 y the pilaw Daly. Do you know whether I was on duty when I was walking alweaft of Fitz gerald's birth, as yon know my duty required me to be there, at that fide of Ilse deck about thole hours, front the time the hammocks are piped np till they are piped down ?—A. He was not in the execution of any duty; be looked very Item at me. Niched Fieltroi fawn. . Adam Bell came over on Saturday, at ten o'clock, from the larboard to the (larboard fide, forward on the lowerdeck,asFeraldand James Kelly were walking pall their birth , to inform them a great many people were talking of going aft in regard to not going to the We ft Fitzge rald made anUwer, the word Ihould be paled to the 'flip's' company, and fee wlj& they would fay. AU hands went aft on the quaftardeck and came down again. I heard Cbefierman fay, the Ad miral gave no fatisfaaory Bawer, and without doubt they were going to the Weft Wks; Abou two ball after dinner the word was paged for no man to drink more than his allowance. The fame night the word was paffed, if ordered to unmoor flap, all hands were to go forward and fay they would not unmoor except for England. Taylor pallid the word. I heard Chefterman give the orders to a great many as I was walking the deck. The word was palled two bells after dinner for all hands to go forward. Fitzgerald and Chef terman defired that the men on deck fhould all come down. I heard a voice fay, come forward, lower all ports. I few Chefterman and Fitzgerald lower the ports next their own birth, and cry out, lower away; and all hands repeated the cry, and called out, " wad and fhot, no place but Eng land !" The Firft Lieutenant, Mr. Douglas, came down to the fore-hatchway, and told the men to come aft and (peak to their Admiral. All hands faid they would not, for that they wanted to fhiver them on the quarter deck. They called for wad and loot, and James Riley called to hand the match. It was only to frighten the officers ; there was no intention of carrying the threat into execution. It was done to prevent the officers coming down. Mr: Douglas called out a fecond time that the Admiral wanted them on the quar ter-deck, and for them not to make fuch a noife. I heard Riley fay, ftrike the rafcal with a fhot.— On Monday I heard Chefterman fay, clapping his hand on the foremoft gun, " this is the very piece of ordnance that will do the bufinefs." The fame night I heard him give orders to bring the ham mocks forward,and flow them on the larboard fide of the lower deck forward, run in the foremoft guns, and flow the hammocks fo as to leave no room for any perfon to come in and out. If the guns fhould not be loaded, and the officers broke in, every man was to feize a Ihot, and (land in his own defence. The fame ni g ht I heard Collins fay he was ordered by the chip s company to get mo ney for a marine's wife, as the marines fitisfcribe to their women. Money was fubfcribed that night. Next morning I beard Chefterman fay there was a great watch the night before. They could not flow the hammocks. At this time I was under the forecaftle fwabbing it. The fame day I heard him fay, if all hands fhould be called to unmoor at any time, all were to appear on the foreca file and forerigging, and give three cheers ; and if they attempted to fire from the quarter-deck, to make a charge and feize the marines arms, which they expeled would be given up without any trouble.

Captain ETles rufhed into the middle of them, feized William Waddy, and brought him out by the collar. John Collins, the ?Afoul, and a great many more, were round him ; they got before Captain Eyles, the prifoner, and myfelf, three different times. Captain Eyles Rill kept hold of the prifoner. They shoved him three- times before he got him out; Collins joined in hulling him; he came right before him, and purred up againil him with his arms hanging down.
