WA. H. CLIFFORD, ESQ, COMMISSIONER.
Yesterday Justin Jacobs of Boston appear
ed before the Commissioner to answer to the
complaint charging him with enticing men to
desert. The Government had no evidence to
offer, and Jacobs was discharged.
This affair, as we understand, has arisen from
the desertion of some three or four members
of the Coast Guard at Eastport. 1t was sup
posed that Jacobs, who was on board the boat
which conveyed away the deserters, had some
thing to do with it, and telegram was sent
TO this city to arrest him on the arrival of the
steamer, as well as the deserters. The tele-
gram did not arrive here until after the steam
er had left this port, and it was sent to Bos-
ton. On the arrival of the steamer at that
port. Jaeo bs was arrested as principal, and
Lieut.. Main as an accomplice. O'Hagan and
Ackley were also arrested as deserters; but it
seems that neither of them were, or could not
be recognized as such. 1t is supposed that the
real deserters left the boat upon its arrival
here, and proceeded TO Boston by another
route.
