He stated that in March last, while in South America, he ‘shipped as a seaman on board the vessel; but when the day for sailing arrived the second mate and five of the crew, through superstition, refused to ‘sail on the voyage, and their places had to be sup- Plied by other men.

He was confined to Bis cabin during the remainder of the Voyage. On reaching port yesterday one of the crew, informed him that previous to the assault Davis approached and induced him to enter into @ conspiracy to murder the second mate. ‘The plan was that Davis was to strike Rikel with a delaying-pin or some other object, and then the German was to throw him overboard. When the assault was made the German refused to perform his part of the contract. On these Uons the magistrate issued 8 Warrant for the arrest of Davis; but when the officers visited a sallors’ ‘Doarding-house and attempted to arrest him he re- sisted, and knocked Officer Dougherty down. The ‘other seamen in the house came to his rescue, and ‘threatened vengeance on the officers; but the latter Grew their revolvers, and succeeded’ in ‘aking (he man intocustody.
