appeared that the prisoners had refused to scrub

Mr.. Il. Ogden, counsel for the prisoner.
moved for their discharge, on the ground that
the whole matter was simply a disis -eement
between the parties, and not in any proper sense
a mutiny.
Mr.. Andrews, for the District Attorney, said
that he thought i would be necessary, upon tbs
testimony, to hold the prisonerA II was a clear
case, though the offence was not of 70 heniou a

that prfDpd facie cas-, sufficient To warrant
the detention Of the prisoners, had been msle
