Association for the Suppression of Public Immorality, St. James's Vestry-hall, Piccadilly, Oct. 20. I have the honour to lay before you the following com munication from the committee of this association. " The Court was then cleared to consider the ap plication, and on re-opening asked the prosecutor if he bad any opinion to express on the matter ; to which he replied that he had no desire to express an opinion one way or the other, but would leave the matter entirely in the hands of the Court, feeling satisfied that the ends of justice would be met in whatever decision arrived at. The Court then de- The object of the association is to promote the improve.: ment of the public morals. - - The committee feel that it s js a duty incumbent on it re spectfully to seek your interference in order to put down the grossly immoral nuisance caused by prostitutes and their associates in the public parks of this metropolis. The committee, in common with every lover of public order, has long viowed this question with much concern. Having been painfully convinced of the incalculable evil consequences which have resulted from the existence of this universally-admitted nuisance, the committee had hoped that the authorities would have interfered for its removal.. The evil, however, instead of being mitigated, has become so much worse as to call forth public complaint. The committee respectfully submit to you the disgrace and mischief of such an evil being allowed to exist in the most public parts of the metropolis, and the great injury thereby inflicted, not only on the west-end of London, but on the entire community. The committee is endeavouring to check the exhibition and practices of public prostitution, and feel that its efforts , are tea great): iteut thwakted the Government not ex ercising its undoubted powers for suppressing the uuis&noe sired that evidence of the fact should be given, and Mr. Lewis, the prisoner's solicitor, was sworn, and the several matters contained in the document veri- fled on oath. The President, at this stage of the proceedings, said that he thought it right to state to the prisoner that Mr. Counsellor Gibbs was pre- sent only as an assessor to the Court, and not to assist in the prosecution ; he was there merely to enlighten and advise the Court and the Deputy Judge-Advocate on any point of law which might arise , . The witnesses.then .left the Court, and the prosecutor was called upon to make any observations he might have prepared to open the case. The prosecutor then read from a paper the nature of the charge, which, he said, was in sub stance having cruelly, wantonly, and wrongfully caused these three men in question to be put to death. He believed that iu the end that would be the simple issue, and he believed that before the case closed they would be able to put aside all legal questions whatever, and to determine of their judgment upon the charge by answering one question :—Did the prisoner cruelly, wantonly, and wrongly cause these three men to be put to death ? The Deputy Advo cate-General then entered into a lengthy explana in question in the public parks. An immunity for such a nuisance in a locality peculiarly under the control of the authorities operates most disadvantageously on the efforts that aro being made to suppress a similar nuisance in the public streets. This committee, therefore, beg to express a hope that, in the interests of public morals, decency, and order, you will be pleased to direct that this immoral nuisance be en tirely removed from the public parks of this metropolis.-- I have, &C., HENRY DOLBY, Hon.

Whitehall, Oct. 24, 1866. am directed by Mr. Secretary Walpole to acknow ledge the receipt of your letter of the 20th inst., and its enclosure, respecting the suppression of prostitution in the public parks, and I am to inform you that the matter is under consideration.--I am, &c., BELMORE.

Now, you will also observe that the charge against the prisoner alleges that he cruelly, wantonly, and wrongfully caused the men to be put to death, and ex pressly alleges that the act was not done by him " in good faith for the purpose of suppressing the rebellion, or pre- Office of Works, &c., S.W., Oct.'24, 1866. Sir,—l have laid before the First Commissioner of her Majesty's Works, &c., your letter of the 20th inst., relative to the nuisance caused by prostitutes and their associates in the public parks of the metropolis. I am, in reply, to acquaint you that the Board are taking steps for the better watching of the parks under their charge, and that if they can diminish or remove the evil of prostitution in those parks they will gladly do so. I am, however, to add that they are armed with no despotic powers beyond the law for that purpose.—l am, &c., GEORGE RUSSELL, Assistant -Secretary. Mr. Henry Dolby. serving the public peace." On the part of the prosecution we shall endeavour to prove this, and if we prove it we may say that the statute affords the prisoner no answer—no defence. But now, if it should occur to you to inquire why the prose cution thus in the very charge anticipate a defence which the prisoner may perhaps never putforward, I may say that the allusions to martial law appear to have two purposes in view :—firstly,—To inform the Court and the prisoner of the nature of the act which will be urged against him ; The Impeachment of President Johnson. The Economist is averse from the plan said to be contemplated by the Radical leaders—the impeach ment of the Presidett. On the whole, it says, there seems absolutely no evidence that Mr. Johnson has intended to violate the law. Violent in his passions, he has used all the power which he believed him self to possess on behalf of his own friends, but that is all ; and we are very much mistaken if the people of the North will not strongly object to set so im portant a precedent as the impeachment of a Pre sident on so weak a case as this—whether, indeed, and to remove at the outset misapprehension of the law which might possibly arise ; secondly,—To assist the pri soner to the full benefit of the statute, if the facts of his conduct entitle him to its protection. With these remarks I shall now leave the statute ; and before, however, going to the facts, I will offer a few words upon the formal part of the charge. It was framed upon the 79th article of war, and the act is charged as " scandalous conduct unbe coming the character of an officer and a gentleman." The penalty upon conviction of such conduct is appointed to be cashiering. Itmight seem that such a charge of scandalous conduct and such a penalty as cashiering are hardly ade they will not be tempted to withdraw their confi dence from the party which proposes so dangerous a precedent for the future. Should Mr. Johnson, misled by passion or ignorance, or an immovable conviction of duty, attempt any overt act against Congress, then, the Spectator remarks, of course impeachment would be easy ; but if he confines himself to his legal Lower, paralyses business, recognises the old legislatures in the South, and steadily vetoes Northern bills, quate to the crime of cruelly and wantonly caustig three men to be put to death. It might seem, perhaps, that it would be better that a charge of " wilful murder" should have been preferred before a civil tribunal, which has pro perly the cognisance of such high crimes. There may be greater obstacles to such a course than we may be aware of, but, in truth, all such truths are irrelevant to our duty. I am sure you will feel that it is enough for us that the charge has been framed by competent authority in England, and this Court has been appointed to try it.' " The prosecutor next detailed the circumstances con nected with the charge as to marches of the detachments from Alanchioneal to Golden Grove, under Ensign Cullen, and of their halting at Plantain Garden River Post-office, and remaining there for three or four hours, which he said 'was of great importance. Of what occurred during the halt at Plantain Garden River the prosecutor said : " ' Now, as to what took place during the time, the wit nesses for the prosecution will toll you that on that morning the three men who are named iu the ch ar g e, together with another named Francis, were taken prisoners for stealing nails and corn at Duckenfield by one Holiday, who took them to ono Phillips, the head man on Duckeufiold, who delivered them over to three constables—Bryan, Hill, or Wills, and another to be handed to the military. As the throe constables, with the four prisoners, were ap proaching the suspension-bridge, one of the prisoners, named Francis, got his hand out of the rope that secured him and made his escape into a cane-field. About the same time some of the soldiers saw the prisoners and began to cry out, as the witnesses will depose, " Prisoners are com ing ; prisoners aro coming." The three prisoners were b roug ht into the Post-office, and were se cure d t o a pos t or to several posts in the piazza, and they were delivered over to Ensign Cullen. The witnesses will toll you that Ensign Cullen directed the men to be flogged, and that appli cation was made to Mr. Manning, the postmaster, for some twine to make a cat with. Some conversation then took place between Ensign Cullen and Dr. Morris. Nothing was said to the prisoners, but in the presence of Ensign Cullen, if not by his direct o r d er, th e t h ree men were un tied from the posts by the soldiers and were taken about 80 n went wereethen forthwithw ith emth e , ee a u n r d ed En te si a gn Cullen bambes yards a o T ff h . D m r e . Morris fence, and shot by the soldiers. Ensign Cullen was looking on, probably, it will appear, at a little distance in rear. Whether he gave an order to fire immediately before the men did fire is not so certain. One of the prisoners was not killed by the discharge, upon which Dr. Morris took a rifle and fired it at the prisoner (as witnesses will depose), killing him. The soldiers then returned to their houses, and shortly afterwards resumed their march to Golden grove, where they arrived the same afternoon. Gentle men, the facts I have been describing will be deposed to by a number of witnesses, who declare they saw them take place with their own eyes. There will be the three con stables who escorted the prisoners : there will be Mr. Man ning, the postmaster, who is a respectable tradesman, and holds the Post-office under Government ; his servant boy, Donaldson; Duaney, who keeps the lighthouse on the coast; and Anderson, the schoolmaster. These men were . •, 1. impeachment will, one fears, be a dangerous pro cess, even in the ;lands of the stern men to whom the elections will entrust the representative power. The Spectator does not mean dangerous in the sense that they may excite the President to armed resis tance. That is the fancy of men accustomed to consider armies machines. The South cannot conquer the North, and the South alone would be behind the President, who would iu a week find himself without a Northern officer of mark, with his scattered army resolved not to fire upon the people, and a quarter of a million militiamen who have seen service advancing amid enthusiastic approval straight on Washington. But there would be danger of reanimating the Democratic party, of creating the sympathy which always follows any neglect of the true principles of justice, and of alarming every State in the Union with the spectacle of a central power, which to secure a political end would strain the ordinary law. • The last returns published by the Bank of France show a certain improvement in the commercial and industrial activity of the country during the last as during several previous weeks. It is, however, so moderate that the ordinary demands which occur at this season of the year suffice to account for it. The cash in hand has diminished by 15,758,000 f, the accounts current by 6,000,000 f. ; the discount of commercial paper augmented by 11,600,000 f. ; advances by 2 millions, and the circulation of Bank paper by .3f millions. Of the 11,600,000 f dis count 10,000,000 f. are in Paris and 1,600,600 f. only in the departments. The branch banks show an in crease of 5,000,000 f. in account s current, whereas during the previous week th e y were augmented by 10i millions. The returns for the 20th of October, 1865, showed the cash in hand to be 431 millions, millions, atnhed discount private aact paper 674 i circu discount of commercial circu lation and e m c il as lio h ns in , l c a o t h i o h n t o s e f ü b r r a e n n k t n l o s t o e s 6ial p4apgearveutl; r of Bank 761 millions, private accounts cur rent 1231 millions, the discount being then 8 per cent. The present returns show an augmentation of 737,000 f. in the accounts current with the Trea eye-witnesses to the whole transaction, and will detail it all to you circumstantially ; and Duaney will tell you that he knew the man Watson well, as a man w ho had taken messages for him from time to time from the li g hthouse to Kingston, and that when the man was going to be flogge d he told Ensign Cullen this, and gave him a good charac ter. The man, Francis, also, who made his escape into the bush, will tell you that ho heard a gun go off. On the , fol lowing day (Sunday) the three bodies were buri ed and this was done by some labour ers who reside in t h e neigh bourhood, and who will give what seems to o be y so b ver sa uried tis factory evidence of the identity of the bodies , T h e conclusions with those subsequen tl y exhumed. from this evidence would seem to be-1. That three men were shot to death ; 2. That Ensign Cullen (who you will remember was in charge of the detachment) caused them to be shot to death. That he did so cruelly, wantonly, and wrongfully, and not in good faith for the suppres sion of the insurrection or the preservation of the public sury.

The steamer arrived at Port Morant at 1 o'clock, and the members of the Court were landed, and immediately pro ceeded through Golden-grove to the Plantain Garden River Post-office, and minutely inspected the locality.

The Military Court-M trtial at Jamaica. -+.- The following report of the commencement of proceedings is taken from the Jamaica Guardian of the 9th inst. : " The General Court-Martial appointed by the Horse Guards, at the suggestion of the Jamaica Royal Commission, to inquire into charges preferred against Ensign Cullen, of the Ist West India Regi ment, and Staff-Assistant Surgeon Morris, for alleged excesses committed by them during the sup pression of the Jamaica insurrection, commenced their sittings at Up-park Camp on Tuesday, the al inst. The Court, consisting of President, Colonel Farren, C. 13., Depot Battalion ; members—Major W. R. Williamson, 48th Foot ; Major J. H. Camp bell, 71st Regiment ; Capt. J. A. Barston, 89th ditto ; Capt. J. L. Seton, 103 d ditto ; Capt. C. V. Oliver, 66th ditto ; Capt. I. Ready, 66th ditto, was opened at half-past 11 a.m., at which time there were present the officiating Judge Advocate, Capt. M‘Lean of the Rifle Brigade, and Mr. Counsellor Gibbs, the legal adviser of the Court ; Brevet- Colonel C. H. T. Daniell, of the 28th Regiment, who acted as prosecutor, associated with the Hon. Alex. Heslop, her Majesty's Attorney-General ; and Mr. Charles Hamilton, solicitor. The prisoner, En sign Francis James Cullen, under escort of Adju tant Cooper, was brought before the Court and placed opposite the prosecutor's table with his pro fessional adviser, Mr. Advocate General Williams, instructed by Mr. Edward Whitehouse Lewis, - of the firm of Lewis and Lewis, solicitors. The Judge Advocate then read a general order, dated Head quarters, Kingston, 28th of September, 1866, and signed by Lieut.-Col. Elkington, the Deputy Adju tant-General, directing the court to be held at Up park Camp on Oct. 2, and recited the names of the officers detailed to form the court. The warrant appointing Col. Farren president was next read, as also the following appointing the officiating Judge- Advocate :—' By the Right Hon. J. R. Mowbray, M.P., Judge Advocate-General of her Majesty's Forces. —By virtuo of the power and authority to me given by her Majesty I do hereby appoint you, the said Captain H. J. Maclean, to act a§ Deputy Advocate-General at a court-martial to be holden for the trial of Ensign Francis James Cullen, Ist West India Regiment, and Staff Assistant-Surgeon Henry Morris. Given under my hand and seal this 31st day of August, in the 30th year of her Ma jesty's reign.—J. R. MOWBRAY.—To Captain H. J. Maclean, Rifle Brigade.' " The Deputy Judge-Advocate then asked the prisoner the usual question, Whether he had any objection to be tried by the court so formed ? —to which he replied in the negative. The oath was then administered to the president and members of the court respectively, and to the Deputy Judge-Advo cate, after which the latter officer read the charge against Ensign Cullen, as follows " ' For scandalous conduct unbecoming the cha racter of an officer and a gentleman, in having on Oct. 21, 1865, in the county of Surrey, in the island of Jamaica, during the continuance of martial law, which had been proclaimed there for the purpose of suppressing an insurrection, and for the preserva tion of the public peace in the said island, cruelly, wantonly, and wrongfully caused three men, seve rally named Richard Walton, Tommy Miles, alias Tom Bell, and John M'Call, alias George Mac quarry M'Call, to be shot to death, the said act not being done by him, the said Ensign Cullen, in good faith, for the purpose of suppressing the said insurrection, or for the preservation of the public peace in the said island.' " To which the prisoner pleaded not guilty, and handed in the following document , which was read to the court : " Mr. President and Members of this General Court-Martial,—l make as early as possible an ap o - lication which is scarcely ever refused in a court f justice. I have been under arrest to this moment. lam only a young ensign. I am a stranger in Ja maica. I have no exp erience of legal tribunals. Arrayed against me are, as I understand, an old ex perienced prosecutor, and also (most unusually) the Attorney-General of the colony, aniEnglish barris ter, and a local solicitor, who have, .learn, not only already' had the opportunity of searching St. Thomas in-the-East for evidence to support the charge pre ferred, but also every other possible advantage against me.
