NIILITARY COURT-MAItrIAL. ~ Wegsee the first day's proceedings on Monday from Another riper ; hit we have thought it right -to defer publishing any more till the trial was finished. SECOND DAY, OCT. 28. The Court met According to adjournment, for the purpose of continuing the evidence in sup port of the charge against Lieutenant Robertson. Mr. SOIMMIII, an army, accoutrement.maker, being examined by Colonel Morland, stated, that some short time ago Lieutenant Robertson bud ordered a wit of appointtnents of him, for which ready money was to be given. Two months after payment was demanded, nod instead - of coals, the appointments w er e se n t hark, with $l. as H eons persantion for the loss. With this arrangement Nir.Solesman expressed himself shithead. Upon cross es4m;n4lii:Tl, it appeared thpt Lieutenant Robertson had discharged all the accounts Mr. Solotuan had against hint 'in an honourable way. Colonel Holland bad called upon witness to make inquiries with regard to dill suit ofappoirdnients, which had beets thus returned, and asked him it he had any objection, if called upon, to state the circumstances of the case. The DEputx Junoe ADynctar then informed .be Court, that all the evidence for the proseco t ion waS gone through, Aud Lient.Robert%on, be. ing egged upon for his detence, expressed himself as not.being.yet prepared,. and wished his own, wit or‘vs to be examined before he made it. This, linweeer was not assented to buithe Court was ,uljoarned at' 1.1 &clock mitil to-morrow, in order to give Lieut. Robertson time to prepare for it. THIRD DAY. This day Lieutenant , Robertson entered upon his defence, which he commenced by stating, that he had been two-and-twenty years in the service, a.illinva ever being subjected to reproach till-0161:d under the cotontand of the prosecutor, Colonel Morland. 'Colonel Morland had always treated him with marked asperity, and in a manner which not only deprived hint of the association of his brother officers, hut which abridged all the respect and authority which it was necessary for him to maintain among the prh'sce soldiers. . it were trite, as Was charged, that he was deficient in skill as a cavalry officer, the cause of it was, that Col. Morland had studiously deprived him of every op. port unity of practice, This was the an setul Court. martial tar which he had been brought for a simi lar °Gum and he could only attribute it to a Spirit of perseaution that aimed at his ruin, which must fol ! otst In the present embarrassed Ilitg3ooll of, his atfairs, trite were ohligt,;d by quitting his regiment to lose the seniority lie kid acquired. With regent to particular omissions of duly in not appearing in his kescappointments on one or two occasions, he ,f,honld be able to establish the fact of his ill ness et those periods, and of the exertions be had made to procure the neeessaty equipments in doe time. lle could show also that he had then a sufficient balance in the Paymaster's hands to stir.,. charge the tradesman's account fur them. He. trusted that that lionoilrishle Court would not emidernu hint as unfit hinger to serve in die regi. metit, mitrety because he was not rich, nor be cause he hail in com Mon .with all his brother offi cers soinetimes.erred'in lodgment, and had not al. ways appeared so 'expert as more frequent practice might have made hint. C - ohnielMonintOreney was the principal witness then extnnine4 tor the defence. hut .his;vidvnee substance nearly the stone n 4n loiS meaner ~,,intinatinn, In answer to one or two cittestiOne from tile court, hestated, that it was his candid np'intan that Colptrel.Mot land treated Lieutenant R o bi l t,lin with - a greater degree or severity than be would haVe ItSeti toWards other Oiliceri in ai- alibi cases. Lieutenant Robertson was nor 'n 40011 ttiry Officer in The h e ld: , ;: but', whether tt ,00ted or distnnunted,,was always eery atten tive to his duty, He knew nothing whatever against - his citracter• . Rtia Cfnultict as' am OHlcer and Gen t Leman' Once the last COurt.Martial s which he 'considered as settint'at 'rest whatever' ha"d taken placc• betoie. 7 • ' The Court adjourned till eleven, o'clock to inorrOw morning.' VougTli DAY. Colons! Morland was this day heard ia'reply to the defence, and contended, that as Lieutenant Robertson had 'had recourse to recrimination, it was necessary for him to state those circumstances Ilion which his alleged severity was founded,- lie 'l l ea stated several instances in whieit the negli gent conduct of !Amen Int Robertson had incur red the WISAlre of totter commanding officers. None of the evidence adduced on the part tiflhe defence appeared - fo hint to contradict the facts contained in the articles of accusation. It re mained clear that Lieutenant ROhertson, after excusing himself front duty at the review in July on acco u nt of ill health, was seen on the ground in plain clothes ; that he was deficient in the re tptisite skill of a Cavalry Officer ; anti that he had been guilty of falsehood, in saying, when ques tioned with regard to his dress appointments, that he had lust them, whilst he knew that he had in fact improperly disposed, of, them. With such a case uneoutrudicted, short as this address was, ! - eared it had unnecessarily consumed too large tt portic,i'.l,9l the valuable time of the Court. The Court then cleared, and its judgment will not, accordi ng !o the usual form, be made public until it has been , i.'`!,!itted to the. Com" mander-in-Chief. Turner, the pugilist, who has been in confine ment fit a house Adjoinirig Toddll.fieltls Britlewd', was yesyaday,rtmoveil to Ncwgate for trial on ; #rithiy, for Manilaughter. He will be tried on the Coroner's Juquivition. [Prue n Sr.vrwrirlwri. LAtV IN`I•6I,LIOENCE. COURT OF XING'S 111 7 . Ne 9ritnis-rs' Ixr4 HALL, °VMS KO 10. CULLEN V. BUTLER.

DESTRUCTION OF A STEAM-BOAT. (From tlit Charhstun City Gasette of Sept. 17.) On Sunday evening last, about six o'clock., just after the steam-host Enterprise had left the land., ing at Sullivan's Island for town, with 50 or 60 passengers on board, in a severe thu nd er-sq u all: she was struck by lightning, which 114. fitimitey, sod occasioned .the bitratinz. nt rive of .the boilers. Ten persons, who were betow at,the time, drying themselves at the fire, were most dreadfully scalded. They had previonsly been drenched in a severe shower. Two .of them, Messrs. I). Tortes anti J.

Six blacks were also more or less injured by thii unfortunate accident, some of then) very badly.
