ALLEGED MUTGNY CAsE,-A Hard Case at 4Any
Rate-Eight sailors of the ship Pleiades which
rived and anchored at Slaughterhouse Point yester
day, were taken off the ship by Lieut.. Simon and
Sergeants Ducoing and Brooks and brought up to
the Third District lookup. They were charged by
the officers Of the ship with mutiny on the high seas,
during the passage from Philadelphia; and there
were thirteen in all, five having jumped overheard
released from their shackles on board the ship.
Whether they had mutinied or not, they were GER
tainy very barbarousy treated by the officers of the
ship. The whole crowd had been hand-cufed and
seated on the monkeyrai, the upper deck, "a seat
only three or four inches wide) whilst their arms
were PASSED around the upper rail- one over and one
UNDER and their hands then locked with the cuffs.
In this cruel position they were kept thirysx hours,
bread and water, and fully exposed to the hot sun
in the daytime and the cool air at night.
The story of the sailors is that they mutined
They said they shipped as regular seamen, to do
seamen's work but that during the voyage they
had been ordered to scrub the pantwork; which,
not being in their line, they refused to do All other
orders they said, they had obeyed with alaCrty and
never offered the officers any insoence or resistance
Just before the ship reached the Balize they were
ordered to reef the mainsal; this they started to do,
when the mate cursed them and ordered them back,
stating that he could get the ship into port himself
is and that he could get better men in New Orleans
After that the captain mate and carpenter came for
ward and put them all in irons in the manner de.
= scribed.
n The sailors will be transferred to the u s. Com.
IL IL missioner before whom we presume the captain will
tell his story.
