BIARINE LITIGATION.
It now appears that the fawyern are, after all, to amass a few fortune's out of poor foolish ship owners who are at present wrangling among themselver. The unlucky Torrington is the subject of three actions. On Wednesday she was arrested"
on behalf of the New Oriental Bank, for advances of sbout $3.000, it is believed, which were made In Saigon or Tourane, during the very troubled voyage of the steamer from Salgon to Hongkong. On Thursday morning she was again arrested (though she had not escaped) on the suit of the Dock Company, for some $8,000 claimed for repairs. On Thursday afternoon a third arrest was made, the crew claiming over 200 for wages. The bailiffs are in possession of the vessel, which now lies near the Quarantine anchorage, plastered all over with Supreme
Court noticer.
The Dormida has also been arrested in tho
matter of the Indo-China Company's claim for salvage. The man in possession" has taken up quarters on board, and will remain until some further step has been taken. The case has bot yet been set down for hearing.
