TO THE EDITOR OF THE STATESMAN.

Slit,—As I have not only hero deprived of my jest

mart heinous offence. I beg, through the neediest of
your Paper. to furnish the Public with a storm
statement of sty caw.; which I humbly conceive will
not only show the injustice I bare received, in regard
so my pay and prise•meney heal withheld, bee also
relate the it.hmo.s iesinsations acid aspersions cast
en me by the advocates of my persecutor.
In t►e year 1797, I wag impressed is his Majesty's
service, and seat on board the brig In Mutiny, Ikea
under the command of Captain Sir Thomas Hardy,
who was in the year following (after the memorable
bottle of the Nile), appointed to Lord Nelsest's dig
ship, the Victory, upon which gessoes', Sir Wilkens;

time I wee only about yeses ttf W-
ho November, 1801, I was disturbed when asleep
in the middle of the night by a man seined
usably, the wardroom steward, who came intozi. ;
cited to my hammock, which adjo:nesl his wan,'
and suddenly louvred It dolls, by which the back
part of my heed fell genial an iron bar. sad I received I
la severe hectare; I called not as well es I ass able
hue know whet ens Ih► matter, end iodise the bier,

the Carole in the sensing of his gross noiscoodect..
bet he only abased me and 'vent no deck sod slept'
there 114 remainder of the night. It
In the morning I asked Grimaldy why he bad so
ill tressed me, as I had sever given him any cause of
offence, sod espressed my determination to inform
the Ceptsin, la which he only answered that he was
&sok, mod said he had found himself on the deck io
the morning, bet denied all knowledge of ka►atsg
come to my hammock.
I requested the Doctor's nt, who was ;wow
on this occasion, to inform his master (Mr. Watkins)
of thieteldy's miscntsdect, !bet be might commune-I

I wientiosted his intositetion, end my ill-treatment,
and Mr. Watkins having examined and dressed my
head, asked me if I kiwis where Grimaldy had ols-
taissed the liquor? 1 told hies I did not, bet had
been sold by the boatswain sod gunner, t►at he had
been titiokine with them late that night.
Mr. *elitist, it grippers, immediately Informed
Captain Sir William Rosie of the transaction, for he
shot°, afterwards sent for me to state to him the'
particulars, which I accordingly did, et the same time
statics, that had Cassidy bees sober, I was rem•
rimed he would not have acted as be did ; whew, to
my great surprise. Sir Williams Host, ordered MO in•
to immediate coilinemeot in irons, and I remained

booed spies, aotwisksioliding my hstrealitie to be
tried by a Ceres-Martial, if guilty of any offence.—
Grimaldy was also puu►ehed, sad seat so shore at
the same lime.
At Malta I continued for some weeks In the greet.

to use hit internee with Captain Sir William Host.,
to permit we to return nn board, or to try me by a !
Coert.Martial, but which Mr. Antrim said woold
he of no avail, as he believed the Captain had put a
hod consti action upon the stair, of shirk he was
very sorry, as he thought me to be entirely innocent,
sod l was compelled to subsist on alas, until I for.
troately obtained a situation as valet with a Mr.
Liodarell, who was then making a tour. with a Mr
Gull and Lord Acton. who, upon bearing of my
