At his return to Jamaica, two of his captains were tried by a court-martial and dismissed from the service.
DEATH OF PRINCE GEORGE OF DENMARK.
The court of England was about this time not a little disquieted by the consequences of an outrage committed on the person of the count de Matueof, the Muscovite ambassador.

He was publicly arrested at the suit of a laceman, and maltreated by the bailiffs, who dragged him to prison, where he continued until he was bailed by the earl of Feversham.
Incensed at this insult, he demanded redress of the government, and was seconded in his remonstrances by the ministers of the emperor, the king of Prussia, and several other foreign potentates.

The queen expressed uncommon indignation against the authors of this violence, who were immediately apprehended, and orders were given to prosecute them with the utmost severity of the law.

Matueof repealed his complaints with great acrimony; and Mr.Secretary Boyle assured him, in the queen's name, that he should have ample satisfaction.

Notwithstanding this assurance, he demanded a pass for himself and family; refused the ordinary presents at his departure; and retired to Holland.
