What a world of conjectures, surmises, in.

A /ZAP POE LIFIL
WY. atlttoN.
After my discharge from the hospital at
Raven*, I" shipped in the American.barque
Independence, traptain Robert bound
toinlistralso, and theme round the Horn to
the Western coast of North Amuses. She
was • large vessel; of some seven 'hundred
tons resister. with a hundsonie poop, top
gallant forecastle, and all other points of a
Lash ship. 'rho captain was a native of Jer
sey, and the crew were a mixture of Ameri
cans, British, and Spaniards, with a sprink
ling of welly-heads, or snow-halls, as we
called the pegrocs.
We had not be . en a week out ere very great
dissatisfaction prevailed among the crew, for
the captain. viith tinacxxountable perversity,
did not allow us half enough junk (i. 0., sal
ted beef,) to our meals; and even what we
did got was.wltat fiaii9rk oat) 'old horse."
vie : hard, tough, lean, stringy stuff, devoid
of nourishment. The usual allowance of
junk on shipboard, Ta one pound and a half
for each man per diem ; but I am Luse we
did not get more than half dist quautity.
The captain used to come on dick every
morning, and stand by the steward as he
weighed out the junk from the " harness
cask," to see that we did not get an ounce
over what he had ordered. On the other
hind this captain allowed us twice as much
grog as is usual. But sailors, although very
fond of rum, can't live upon it ; and three
quarters of a pound or 'old horse," and R
few rotten biscuits, quite alive with weevils,
was a poor day's allowance for h'arty
fellow.
Our first mate often remonstrated a ith the
captain on his conduct, and plainly told him
that the men would not svihroit to it ; but
the only reply the captain made was, to tell
him to mind what he was about, or he would
•break him and daze him up," meaning that
he would send the mate forward as a com
mon *whir, and work him to death. At
length, after a long and fierce dlscusniou
the tbrecattle, we all went aft one morning
in a body, and complained through the car
penter, as spokesman, Oast we had not eneogh
to eat. Captain 1.-- listened without in
terruption, and then coolly turned round and
said—
"Steward, go down in the cabin and bring
my pistols."
We looked at one another in silence.
. bri v oouple of minutes the steward re
turned with the pistols, and, with a face pale
*a death, handed them to the captaio. The
tatter coolly placed them both on full cock,
and laying them lido by side on the top , of,
the binnacle, crossed his arena and glared
round at every.soul of 114 ore he spoke.
"Now, roes," cried he, at length, between
his teeth, "all I've got to any is, that you am
Mistaken if Ton think you are going to apt
the uppet hand of me. I am your captain,
and law gives Mb power to do what I Ake.
You didn't ship to bully me. Go for'&1111 to
your duty, and the Inn man that hesitates,

legally be held,proof of insanity : for all that
he did, alibi:nigh highly cruel and tyranical,
was within the bounds of that !barrel amount
of almost irresponsible power that the law
allows •to ass captains.: - • •
We bad been three weeks out: when it was
my mornMg to watch on deck. Six bells (7
o'clock) had Just been stroch: and X, ors en

blow hi the mouth that knocked him away
from the'wheel, and thundered—
'Tor take the epokea in hand ! i!jm,lo4w_

(Such were the exact words, for LOsLinct
ly remember them.)
The poor fellow, who was one of the hest

muttered—
"I was steering to a hair's breadth." .
"What's that you say ?"
'•I say I was steering as well as any roan
CoOkl, and you're a tyrant, captain." -
The captain's face grew Uack with pas

as he screamed—
"Mr. 31,eltimn: clap this fellow in bamo4
No, seize him up--malice a are4eirgle or
him ! I'll teach him to toe the mark !"
,The mate, Jackson, in vain attempted to
soothe the madman, who "compelled his offi
cers to "seize up" the unfortunate sailor—
that is, to lash his wrists to the shrouds,
with his hack bare fur punishment. This
is called making a "..pread.ragle." I dare
not dilate on the sickening scene thatensued.
Suffice it that the captain with his own hand
flogged tho man most brutally in presented
all hands, and not a sold of us dare to speak.
That night we all signed a "round robin,"
that is a paper stating a grievance, or pcti
thm with the names of the men written in •
