which we learn, that an itsepriry has. hertz Militated

from their obi quartets Inning preceded theta
throughout their joutney. On arrivtog at Ply-
'mouth, it seems they were ordered to enib:irk

we believe) ; but the letter states, that the regi.
went refused to embark under sissy stigma af-
fecting their character f., allegiance, whir+ they
had displayed in so massy hard won fields dur-

deemed advisable to undertake an investigation of
the alleged grievance, and the men have been di-
rected to depute a few of their number to appear
befine the Court, for the purposes of explanation.
