A Portland Captain Fined.

The Bath Times says: "Capt. Nichols of
brig Shaster of Portland was held in the police
court Monday morning on the charge of
abusing his mate, named Stewart. The
charge was brought Saturday by Stewart
through complaint to the authorities, and the
captain was arrested. He was released Satur-
day night upon giving bail and Monday morn
ing appeared before the court. The complaint
was that the captain struck the mate without
proyocation. The affair occurred in the river
after the vessel had come to anchor, and was
the result of the refusal OF the mate to con-
tinue work. The captain struck him and
knocked him down and struck him after he
was down. The testimony in the police court
failed to show any reasonable provocation at
the hands of the mate, and also that the mate
had not signed articles in Portland where he
shipped. The vessel belongs in Philadelphia
and was towed from Portland here. The cap
tain testified that the mate refused duty, not
withstanding the fact that he had not been
overworked. Since Stewart the mate, had not
signed articles he was simply a common
laborer, notwithstanding that he held the
position of mate by verbal agreement, and
that the act of the captains in striking him
was contrary to the law. II the man had
been under maritime law the case would have
been less simple The court fined Captain
Nichols $40 and costs.
