,
A serious mutiny took place, lately, on board of
his Majesty's brig Columbine, while lying at 'St('
John's,- New Brunswick, in the Bay of- Fundak
but, by the good conditti of the Captain and Offi-
cers, the mutineers were overpowered, and the brig
taken tiosession of by a party of soldiers and sent
round here.-:=They were tried two days ago. Six
of them, among whom was the boatswain,- were
'bung up. in chains, on gibbets—fourteen were sen-
tenced to be transported for 14 years, flogged through
the fleet, and to serve as convicts, in chains, in any
of his Majesty's foreign dorninns ; the carpenter
VV:S one of the number. ' The plan of the intitineers
was to murder their officers, to carry the brig into
America, at,d to desert. St. John's New Bruns-:
wick, is cloie on the American:lines; therefore, tht..y
had but a short distance to 'run. Admiral Otrchrayi;;;
