ic We continued onr voyage from Cork, with.
out any thing happening very particular, until
the 29th, when we were in latitude 6. 32. North,
and longitude 21. 34. Weil of Greenwich. The
Surgeon being taken ill a than time after failing,
I took upon myfelf to adminifter every thing to
the conviEts to preferve their health. During this
part of the parage the prifon was whitewalied
twice, fumigated twice a week with gunpowder
and viitgar mixed, and walled with vinegar twice
a week ; and I had them upon deck for the be-
nefit of the air twice a week. This attention was
followed by the moil beneficial effeCts ; all the
tick we had at our departure were nearly recovered,
one old man only having died. On the 29th, as
above, I went to fce the paws fumigated, attend.
ed by the Mate and Gunner. The inftant the
(mote begaa I was Nod by the threat by a cos-,

. .

Vi&, Tvciferating death or liberty. The Gunner
and Mate were seized at the fame time by others ;
and the party of them upon deck,. about thirty,
wrenched a.cutlafs from one of the black centioels,
and fome iron bars from the cabhoufe ; the alarm
became general, and the officers and men were
quickly armed and at the prlfon door. The con-
vies' mutiny on deck being quiekly,quelled, I ex-
tricated myfelf from the man who firft ieized me,
and was refcued from the crowd by two convi6s,
and got upon deck. The Mate and Gunner being
10 in their cuflody, and the mutiny Rill con.
tinning, recourfe was Lad to fire arm, when one
man attempting to take a piftol from a fcaman
, was thot dead, and two more were wounded.
This had the etre& of refcuing the Mate and Gun-
ner, but not until the lira had received Come vio-
lent contufions on the head. At this crifis fome
Ipeedy and exemplary punifhment was necelary,
and from the information of the Mate, as well as
my own recolleftion, Marcus Sheehy was the ring-
leader. He conic:fled his guilt, and was, by the
fentence of all the Officers, immediately Ihot, in
the prefence of the convifts. Chriftopher Grogan.
the ringleader on deck, was fentenced to ago
taffies : and thus ended this difagreeable affair.—
We arrived here the ssd of Auguft."

The following Eatt-Indiamen, configned to

mediately for Conflantinople. Captain MIN-
IMUMS refuted to obey the order, and urged the
independence of his flag. and the American Con.
ful, in decided terms, leconded his remonfirance ;
but to there the Dey briefly anfwered, that unlefs
they immediately complied, he would feise the
chip, fend her crew into flavery, and declare war
againft the United States. Captain BAINBILIDGa
departed on the !ph of °Sober : his cargo
confifled of twenty Gentlemen, one hundred
Negro Turks, fizty Turkith women, two lions.
two tigers, four horfes, and two hundred (beep, be-
fides jewels and money. It was evident had Capt.

have been tent into flavery. it w.ts alfo underQood
that Capt. O'Bstius had to enter into feciFity on
the part of the United States for Boc,ooo Dollars,
for the fate delivery at Conflantinople of the cargo
