LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY

(Before Mr. RAFFLES.)
CHARGE OF MUTINY.

Captain Woods, of the ship Alliance, belonging to IVr. M. I.
Jones, charged eight men belonging to ship for mutiny and
continued disobedience, and refusing to proceed to sea. .Mr.
Flluck was for the prosecution, and Mr. Cobb for the defence.

It appeared that the ship sailed on 'Friday last for Aderr, with
a general cargo. She is a clipper, of 552 tons, and had pro-
ceeded as far as the " Smalls," when the got into the storm of
Saturday night and Sunday mornieg, when the men rebelled,
and said they would not proceed to sea, as, they alleged, the
vessel was making too much water, and would founder. They
wanted the captain to put into some port or harbour, and to
lighten the cargo, but he refused, as he had every confidence
in the seaworthiness of the ship. The men then absolutely
refused to work, so the captain was obliged to return to port,
and gave the men into custody. The captain was examined nt
some length, and cross-examined by Mr. Cobb, when the above
facts were elicited. George Newenhar, the chief mate of the
ship, said the ship WAi quite seaworthy, and only made a very
small quantity of water, not so mach as an ordinary ship
would in ordinary weather, although it was as great a gale no
he had ever experienced, but the ship rode it out in gallant
style. and was now as tight as ever, and spars and all perfect.
He was going in her again. Tbh men absolutely refused to
work, but they were good men otherwise. They thought to.
bear up for Cork, but they could not reach it in consequence
6f the storm. Mr. Cobb addressed the court at some length,
and contended that the men were afraid of the ship foundering,
andthey only wanted the captain to put into some port, to
lighten the ship, to save themselves. Mr. Raffles said he
thought the case a very bad one ; no one could tell the loss
that would happen to the owners in consequence of the con-
duct of the prisoners, although it was proved that the ship
was quite seaworthy. Four of the men seemed to be worse
than the others, and the.,e were sent to gaol for twelve weeks,
and the others for eight weeks each.
HARI) SWEARING SOME PLACE.
James Cottrell, a beer-housekeeper and watchmaker, living
in Lord-street, Edge-hill, and Thomas Watersort, a lodger in
his house, were charged with having assaulted police-officer
33. Mr. Cobb defended. The officer stated that about two in
the morning he heard a great noise in the house, and persons
playing cards. They were making a great riot, and he knocked
at the door, when Cottrell came out and struck him. He then
entered the house, and the officer followed him, when a row
took place, and the other prisoner endeavoured to rescue
Cottrell. This story was corroborated by police-officers 554
and 353. Mr. Cobb cross-examined the police, and endeavoured
to show that they entered the house improperly, and that the
parties who were inside were not playing cards. The officers
admitted that they did Rot see any cards, but they heard the
people playing. Mr. Cobb contended that the police had acted
improperly, and that they had no right to enter the house at
all. He would cell witnesses to show that there was no card-
playing, and that officer 33 had used most abominable and
insulting language to Cottrell, and called him down to open the
door, and when he refused he came over the wall at the rear,
and broke into the house, and behaved in the most outrageous
and illegal manner. He would bring an action against the
police, and try if they had a right to net in such a manner. He
called John Coldwell, and a young woman, who swore that the
police came over the back wall, and broke in the door. They
called Cottrell all sorts of vile names. There was no card-
playing in the house. They negatived all that was sworn to
by the police; but his Worship said ho did not credit the
evidence, and fined the prisoners 10s. each. Mr. Cobb geld he
would certainly bring an action, and try the right of the police
in the case.
