ADMIRALTY SESSIONS.

Yesterday the Sessions for the trial of offences
committed on the 'High'Seas were bolden before Sir
WILLIAM 'SCOTT, Judge Advocate, Sir Sudo); Lz
BLANC, and a Bench of. Civilians.
-..Acpw, a Chinese seaman, was indiaed for the
murder of h native of the same country, named An-
guen, on 'board the Travers Indiarnan, on. the
24th of May list, off the Azores.
•The principal witnesses in this case were Captain
Saunders, of the 'Thivers,•his first and 'second Mates,
and some of the Quartermasters of the Ship. It ap-
peared from their evidence, that the Prisoner, and
several other Chinese seamen, had been- taken Oa
board at Bengal.to compose.part of the crew of the
Ship on her homeward-bound voyage. The deceased
officiated as Cook. M 1 the Chinese seamen, it ap,
peared, could speak some words of English, though
very indistinctly. On the 24th of May, about half
past two in the morning, Anguen was found :dead.
on the lower deck, near his hammoCk. The Second
Mate, who had the watch, and some of the Quarter-
masters, who were on the quarter deck, heard 010
groans of the deceased, and; upon their going down,
they-discovered thePtisoner standing.near the body,
with his-hands all over blood. He heid a knife in his
hand, which was bloody. 'When the body_ of the
deLased was examined, the. head was found to bp
almost separated : in all there were nineteen wounds
in the body.
When the Prisoner was,seized, he said---," Anguen
tell me lie, me kill .Anguen—that China fashion !'
A; Chinese seaman-, named Agow, about the same..
time this fransadion happened, was awakened by a
person calling out, " Man kill me.': He groped
about in the dark towards the quarter from which
the sound came, which was •in the, dire-Won of
Anguen's hammock, and as he:approaated, received
a wound ,in his
_neck. 'He .then returned to his •
_hammock. This was the substance of the evidence
against the Prisoner. He appeared very indifferent
to i,v4t was passing.
An interpreter explained to. the Court and the.
Jury the evidence of the Chinese seaman, • and in-
formed the prisoner what _the English witnesses
stated. :When the prisoner was asked what be bad
.to say in his defence,' he replied, through the inter.
preter, that they might cut off his head, or bang
him, just as the English- custom might be, it was
all one to, him; for he :had killed Anguen. The
Jury returned a.verdia of Guilty. •
Wiq. SCOTT immediately passed sentence of
death upon him in'the usual form, but respited him
uotil this day se'nnight. This, we understand, was
'done on account of the state of the-tide.
