The Borden Mut1Dy.
late London dispatch SAYS:

On the arrival of the schooner Jefferson
Borden at her dock to-day she was boarded
and the full details Of the mutiny obtained.
1t seems that an American sailor, named
Smith, struck the first blow. He knocked
down and killed the second mate. who was
in charge OF the watch. He then awakened
the first mate. As the latter came out of
the cabin he was felled by sailor named
Miller and thrown overheard. All this time
Captain Patterson was asleep. He was
aroused by Miller, who shouted down the
gangway that a man had broken his leg
Looking around he observed that the hunks
OF the mates were empty. Suspecting mis-
chief, he armed himself with revolvers and
went on deck. He was Immediately assailed
by the mutineers with missiles. He opened
fire. They retreated, and finally took re-
fuge ia the deck house, where he besieged
them an entire day. He emptied his re-
window, but they refused to surrender
until night Miller, after receiving five
bullets in his legs and two in his body, at
length offered to yield, with his com
panions, and all were secured KThe Eng
llsh sailor, whose name is Cle~, Received
two bullets beneath the ribs and will prob
ably die. Smith, another mutineer, was
wounded in the wrist and shoulder. He
was chained to the pump, and suffers
severely from ague, contracted from his ex-
posure. The captain, steward, boy, and
one sailor worked the ship seven days be-
fore assistance was obtained from passing
vessels. The first mate was the captains
brother, and the second mate HE cousin.
The mutineers assert that their only object
was revenge for i'll treatment. The rest of
the crew deny that the men had been ill.
treated, and Captain Patterson declares
that they intended to plunder the vessel.

sloners, will assume command of the force,
thus relieving General Badger, who has
performed the duties so many weeks since
ne made the Office vacant by accepting the
Office of tax collector of the Fourth District,
the Board of Police Commissioners refusing
to accept his resignation.
In leaving this position for the less exact
ing one, General Badger carries with him
the regrets of every man Of the fosce, not
one OF whom but desired to have him CON
tlnue in command. Not only this, but in
addition to the respect Of all who have
officially been brought in contact with him,
he has gained the esteem of the entire COM
munity. Every one will wish he may long
enjoy the comparative ease and greater
reward Of his present position.
Captain Loan is we'll known to the people
OF New Orleans, and has filed with credit
several responsible positions. He was born
IN Massachusetts, was in the service of the
United States in both army and navy
during the var, resigning from the latter in
1866. Since then he has lived in New Or
leans. He is noted All man of great energy,
excellent education, strong practical sense
and considerable knowledge of the duties
OF his new and, at the present time, exceed
ingly difficult position. There is a way to
make the police what it should be, and he
has the will to find it. In the opinion of
many who are best qualified to Judge, he is
the right man in the right place.

metropolitan Benevolent Aid Association.
A large number of the Metropolitan Police
officers met at Harmony Hall last evening,
to endeavor to form relief association.
Officer John A. Brett, of the third pre-
cinct, was unanimously chosen temporary
president, and stated the object of the
meeting.
He said such al association should have
been formed years since, but many causes
prevented. Now there was an opportunity,
it all would work together. If each officer
contributed s. as an Initiation fee, there
would be $3.50 to commence with, and q
monthly payment OF fifty cents would give
an annual income Of $4,000 more. This
would be of vast benefit in time OF trouble,

The Approaching End of the Beecher
Trial.

The Approaching End of the Beecher
Trial.
After the cloee of the Beecher trial there
will be startling revelation Of the expert
ence of tue jurors. Ono Of them has con-
planned to Judge Nelson tfat he has been
approached improperly, and it is now re-
garded as certain that there can be NO yer.
dict. At the commencement of the trial
Judge Nelson favored the isolation Of the
jury, but the lawyers on both sides, foresee-
ing the hardship of such course, opposed
it and had their way. Jurors, consequently
have been accessible. The result has been
closely watched by detectives on both Sides
Soon after the trial began PIN F. Bingham,
who used to be in the employ of the Erie
railway under Fisk's management, and
since then has had some connection with
Shearman's office, went to Middletown,
New York, on an errand from tho defense.
There he saw Mr.. Tuttle, who had been
detective for the Erie Company. Bingham
said to him in substance: 1--WE want to en-
plOy you to look after the Jury in the
Beecher case" Tuttle declined the Job.
whereupon Bingham said: "Well, the work
is going to be done any way, if l have to
look after it myself" Bingham soon made
his appearance in Brooklyn, and has spent
most OF his time there ever since, but has
not been in the court room. His movements
the employ Of Tilton's side, and, we dare.
say, the secret history Of the scandal would
be as interesting as that which has been
reported in the newspapers
The trial of Beecher was adjourned from
this morning until Monday, without taking
any testimony, Beach and Shearman being
necessarily absent in another court. Wood
hull, Ciatiin, Colonel Blood and Frank Car
penter were to have gone on the stand.
Note sensation later.
The Brooklyn Eagle, in speaking of the
probable duration OF the Beecher trial, says
that the testimony yet to be introduced in
behalf of the plaintiff will. it is expected,
be all in by Tuesday night, and the remain
der of the week will be taken up BY conn-
selfor defendant in placing their last testi
mony before the jury.
Ex-Judge Porter will commence his ad-
dress on Monday, the sixteenth instant,
and will take the whole of that week in
presenting his view of the case in behalf of
the defendant. The address of Evarts,
which will be commenced on Monday, the
twenty-third instant will probably occupy
the remainder of the month, and run over
into June, and, if nothing unforeseen takes
place. the whole Of the summing up, includ-
ing the address by Beach on behalf of
plaintiff, will be finished by the end of the
first week of next month, Beach does not
Ok pect to take up more than three days in
presenting plaintiff side of the case to the
Jury. Then will follow charge by Judge
Nelson, and deliberation of the jury, and
the verdict may be looked for about the
middle of next m0nth.-New York S,ot.

HailstQrm in EaIfax CnunfY.

We learn from the West Point Citizen
that that town and ths surrounding country
in Coltax county experienced a terrific
hailstorm last Friday morning. the Citizen
thus describes it:
Friday morning last dark seas of float
ing clouds seemed lowering over our quiet
city. Soon they clashed together. thunuers
roared and tho forked lightning blazsd from
the windows of the skies. Great drops of
water began to fal about IL NJ, then came
small drops Of hail like shot; louder grew
the storm and larger grew the hail, until
hailstones the size ot butter. nuts and gui-
nea eggs came clashing to the earth. The
Oldest citizens say they never saw anything
like it. The damage was very great. Every
house without protected windows on the
north lost ITS glas2-one honse having 100
broken. The kyiights Of the photograph
gallery were ell broken. The wheat fields
in the line of the storm are literally har-
