The whaleship Junior, of New Bedford, sailed from that port on a whaling voy: on the 2ist of rar 1897. She went around the Cape of Good Hope to the Indian Ocean, bound for New Zealand. When in lat. 27 deg. 57 min. south, long. 156 deg. 58 min. east, about 400 miles from New Zealand, a tof the crew rose in the night and murdered the captain (Archibald Mellen, Jr., of Martha's Vineyard,) and the third mate, (John th, of Boston.) They also attempted to m: the first and second mates at the same time, and dangerously wounded them. The prominent facts are these: The ringleaders in the mutiny are Cyrus Plummer and Richard Cartha. Th in ema Reta ryne, ey, ii a Burns, Foby Hal = yee m. Herbert, an rs, a concerted arrangement, sor 1 o’cloe! boty 2 morning of the 26th, armed themselves and en- tered cabin, where the captain and three mates were asl Plummer ed to the captain's state-room and shot him with a wha- ling gan containing three balls, when the cap- tain Sprang up and exclaimed ‘« My God, what is thjs?” ummer replied, “ G— d— you, it is me‘”’ took him by the hair of the head, and dispatched him by repeated blows with a hatchet, on the neck and in the ribs. At the same time Plummer went to the capiain's state-room, Burns, Hall and Herbert proceeded to the state-rooms of the mates. tian shot the first mate in the shoulder with a whaling ‘an with six balls, inflicting a horrible wound. urns killed the third mate by repeated stabs in the body with a boarding knife. Cartha in the meantime struck at the second mate with a boarding knife, but missed him; he then fired a jae at him, the ball striking his rib and in-' iting a severe but not dangerous wound. In. the meantime Burns attempted to dispateh him; but hesurrendered and went on dec , and the mutineers, after binding him, er to spare the first mate s his a When Hail fired into berth set. the bed on fire, and supposing mate, the mati- them all dead bat the second neers left thecabin. The first mate was first awakened by hearing Plummer give the word “fire; when he immediately received the six balls in his shoulder. At the same time he heard screaming,which proceeded undoubtedly from the other officers who wers at the same _MomMent being attacked. first mate (Mr. Nelson Provost) was stumned by the explosion and the wound he re- pesived for a moment or two, during which the e™utineers, supposing him dead, left the cabin and went on deck. Mr. Provost then got u and went to the Captain’s state room an found him on his chest, leaning on his arm. He raised him up, and he breathed two or three times, and without speaking, expired. Mr. Provost also went to the second and third mates’ rooms and found the former wounded and the latter dying. The mutineers soon after, finding Mr. Pro- vost was still alive, ordered him on deck, and he sary Grom to go, but he apprehended his life would be taken and retreated into the up- per bold, and secreted himself among the bar- rels. In the meantime the burning bed had communicated the flames to the wood work of the cabin, and before Mr. Provost leftand went into the hold he begged the mutineers to put out the fire. This ey succeeded in doing after the cabin had been badly dam: by the flames, a considerable portion of it aving been destroyed. Immediately after the havoc in the cabin was finished, and the mutineers got on deck, they called all hands, when Plummer and Car- tha informed them that the ship was taken, and the former proceeded to take command. They then proceeded to search the ship for the first mate, but did not succeed in fin ling bim until the third day. Not finding bim after coe bay 4 search, and finding a cabin win- jow open they sutmised that he had jumped pete ase is alg «In the meantime, Provost, becoming faint from loss of blood and thirsty, crawled into the lower hold, and finding a cask of water with the kung out tore off his shirt collar, and, dip- ping it inte the cask, sucked from the eloth a tittle water, which enabled him just to support life He found a little bread also. By the time they discovered Provost on the fifth day the murdercrs had found out that they could not navigate the ship, and were glad to spare his life on condition that he would pilot them te Cape Howe, in New South Wales, an uniobabited portion of the island. This, Mr. Provost, being entirely in their power, promised to do. They also pig rage ‘im to promise, by swearing him on a Bible, that after they landed he would immediately sail for New Zealand, nearly a thousand miles from New South Wales. Mr. P. then gave them the courses by which to work the shipand they brought her within fifteen or twenty miles of land, whea the mutineers left the ship, with some other of the crew, whom they had coaxed or coerced to join them, making ten, the muti- neers included. They left on the 4th January, taking with them two boats, with stores, clothing, &c., and sailed for Cape Howe. While on board the Ju- nior they guarded the wounded mates, the guard being armed with pistols and hatchet. During the nights, however, Plummer and Cartha would allow no one but themselves to stand watch over them. After the mutineers left the ship, and were out of sight, Mr. Provost took command of the ship and steered immediately for Sidney, in New South Wales, which is about 350 miles trom Cape Howe, where the mutineers landed. The condition of affairs was immediately re- ported to the American Consul at Sidney, and @ British steamer, with policemen on board, to- gether with the second mate of the Junior, was despatched in pursuit of the mutineers, and eight of them re captured, and are now on their way home in irons on board the ship which was the scene of their horrid butchery. ot ie A onthe ees nk, Tae Quaker vs. ras Baxxer.—A corres- ondent sends the following good thing to the affalo Express K »the president of a Pennsylvania railroad, during the confusion and panic of last fall, exlied upon the W——— Bank, with which the road had kept a large regular ac- count, and asked an extension of a part of its perer falling dae ina few days. The bank resident declined rather abruptly, saying, in * tone common with that fraternity : ~ Dir. K. your paper must be paid at matar ity. We cacnot renew it.” “Very weil,’ our Quaker replied, and he left the bank. On leaving the bank he walked quietly over to the depot and telegraphed all the agents and conductors on the road to reject the bills on the W Bank. Ina few hours the trains began to arrive, full of the panic, and bringing the news of the distrust of the Ww Bank ail along the line of the road Stockholders and dep. s flocked im the bank, making the panic, inquiring, “ What's the matter’’' “Isthe bank broke?”’ A lit- tle inquiry by the officers showed that the trou- ble originated in the rejection of the bills by the road. The President seized his hat sand rushed down to the Quaker’s office, and came bustling in with the inquiry, ~ Mr. K. have you directed the refusal of our currency by your agents ?”” ~ Yes,’ was the quiet reply. “Why is this? it will ruin us.” “ Weil, friend L lew thy bank was about to fail, ax thee could uot renew « little paper for us this morning."* Itis needless to say Mr. L. renewed all the Qaaker’s paper aod enlarged his line of diseount, mee the magie wires i the , to every agent, the sedative ret “The W Bank is all right.
