hoard the ship Lowther Castle, on the high seas, off St.
Helena.

Messrs. Anot.runs and CLARKSON conducted the pro 4

Mr. ADOLPHUS described this as a case attended whit
circumstances of very unusual importance, and said
every one must be aware of the necessity of preserving all.
bordinatiou in the merchant service. He also referred to
an agreement which bad been entered into by Captain
Batty, commander of the above vessel and his officers, that
they would not use any abusive or ungentlemanly lan-
guage when delivering their commands to the crew ; yet,
notwithstanding this kindness, the prisoner had discovered
great insubordina,ion, and drew his knife, cut the prose.
cutor's clothes, and put him in fear of his life.

_ .
R. Johnson Barton examined—On the day named in the
indictment he was on, board the Lowther Castle,
off the island of St. Helena, on the homeward-bound
voyage from China. The prisoner was on the sprit-sail
yard and hailed one of his Majesty's ships, the witness
desired him to desist but he would not, and drew a knife
and said he would murder any man who came near him.
Mr. Gisborne and the master of arms came on deck, and
the prisoner then left and was ordered into irons ; wit..
tress and Mr. Gisborne some time after, went into that
part of the vessel where prisoner was confined, when he
threatened to stab Mr. Gisborne with a knife if he touched
him ; witness and Mr. Gisborne secured the prisoner's
arms, and the prosecutor took hold of him round the body ;
the sail-maker cut the cord that secured the prisoner's
knife, but returned it to the prisoner.
Crosseexemined by Mr. Lag—There is an action now
pending against the witness at the instance of the prisoner.
Witness struck the prisoner and made his nose bleed, but
not until after the knife had been drawn. The prisoner
called out, "Murder," but nothing was done to him till
lie had used the threats anti drawn the knife. It was
found necessary to put the prisoner in irons. Had heard
that two of the prisoner's ribs were broken, after he got
on shore at St. Helena. The prisonpr was released by the
Governor of St. Helena on the 30th of June. Witness
did not know whether the prisoner could use his hands
and legs when he wits in confinement. No more force
was used towards tl:e prisoner than was necessary. He
was sent home for trial in the Kellie Castle.
John Gisborne, first mate, corroborated the evidence of
the last witness.

John Hayward, third mate in the Lowther Castle,
hearing a noise in that part of the shipwhere theprisoner was
on the day named in the indictment, he went and found the
prisoner before Mr. Gisborne and Mr. Barton. The prisoner
bad a knife in his right hand, and swore in a most dread-
ful manner he would stab any man who came near. He
endeavoured to secure him, and the prisoner struck him
several times with his knife. He did not cut his body,
but his clothes were cut in several places, and the prisoner
was confined.

Mr. John Lister, surgeon of tl.e -Lowther Castle, said
the prisoner never told him he had any ribs broken.
This was the case for the prosecution.
Mr. LES, at considerable length, addressed the Jury for
the prisoners.

Mr. Justice llosAtuaurr recapitulated the evidence, and
the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.
Sir CHRISTOPHER ROBINSON rose and delivered the
judgment of the Court, which was two months' imprison-
ment in Newgate, and a fine of a shilling.
