The Swedish schooner Gustavus Vsssa,
Says the Baltimore Evening Post.) from
iiisTaniola for Baltimore, was captured in
september last by his maiessy's ship Ada
mantj john Stiles, master, and carried
into Jamaica. Elijah Davis, who went out
IN the Gustavus Vosa, rs second mate and
pilot, was ordered, previous 10 their arri-
val at Jamaica, to do ordinary duty on
board the Adamant, which his feelings as
an American freeman, induced him per-
emptorily to refuse stating that he would
not perform any duty under English CO.
lorS. He was consequently ordered by
the said Stiles TO be logged in an infa-
nous manner, and survived but few
days.
Mr.. Davis was born in Patapsco Neck,
Baltimore county, and was for many years
pilot in the Chesapeake Bay, and at the
time Of his murder had his certificate Of
branch pilot in his possession.
But this was only an amicG6ic deposit
