Before Justice Kirtlapd.
Captain Farssei.-This worthy who Last week
brought up five six Of his crew for attempting to
make revolt, was on Saturday himself arraigned
for cruel and unusual treatment tohis hte steward
John w. Jewett and also for threatening to run his
first officer through the heart with cutlass. The
evidence exhibited some very peculiar morals as
appertanng to the interior regulations Of the Frank
lin 1t appeared that the ship had no regular cabin
passengers but the stewards wife, and ihat among
and rosy checked Irish lasses. One ofthese, Miss
Mary Ann Hsly, was pied by the captain the day
after the vessel was out Of port and she was trans
ferred to the cabin. Whether she did duty, kept
watch Of night did not appear, but one thing was
certain that the young lady always had the weather
side of the quarter deck, and the best seat at the
dinner table. In the course Of the voyage row en-
sued between the steward and the captain, and Of
course the stewards wife, who board looked
rather gngerly upon the captains lady; and the up
shot Of the whole was that the steward put in
and shut down in :" the rum for three days and
three nights with only biscuit and water that be-
ing in the opinion Of Captain Farwel prisoners fare
He subsequently,, however, relaxed little from thi:
order, and permitted the steward 10 have two small
pieces Of beef. The "captain's LADY, and the
| stewards wife" were both adduced and sworn,
but somehow or other they both seemed laboring
| under very extraordinary hallucinaton of ideas
while board else to and hear very different
state of facts il facts they be termed, when
sort must undoubtedly be what Col Stone calls false
! facts
William vittle, the first mate, deposed to being in
constant fear Of his life, and his Honor Justice Kr
land, said that the testimony was somewhat con-
/ Trajectory, it had better go before jury.
| He therefore held the accused TO bail in the sum
of $500 to meet the charge OF threatening the life OF
the mate, and in the sum Of 500 TO answer for
/ city to the steward. There are many and obvious
why but few Of the many charges Of cruelty,
brought by petty officers against ship mas
.ers ever sustained; but we do hepe and trust

when is red that the accused only escaped
conviction of manslaughter by the skin of his teeth;
and that very few persons who listened to that test
mory but were OF opinion that i the poor negro's
death did not lie at the door Of Eben Farwe, he at
least accelerated and embittered that poor wretch's
unhappy doom.
