A court-martial assembled on Wednesday on board the Wellesley, guard•ship of ordinary lying off Chatham, in the river Med way, to try Dr. Robert Wallace, sur geon, Royal Navy, on the following charges, viz.:-- Ist. For that he, the said Dr. Robert Wallace, late of her Majesty's ship James Watt, when in actual service and full pay in her Majesty's fleet, and while having charge of invalids, was, between the Ist and 17th days of August, 1855, on several occasions, on board the transport Cottingham and on shore at Falhndd, in the I-land of Gothland, in a state of drunkenness. 2dly. For that he, the said Dr. Robert 'Wallace, late of her Ma jesty's ship James Watt, when in actual service and full pay of her Majesty's fleet, and while having the charge of invalids, did, between the days beforementioned in the first charge, while on board the transport Cottingham, and also on shore at Falhudd, act in a harsh and unkind manner towards invalids so under his charge, and did not treat with sufficient care and attention such of the said invalids as are hereafter mentioned—namely, Mr. Robt. H. Boyd, late of her Majesty's ship Colossus, since de ceased ; Mr. George Jeremiah Whitehouse, second master, late of her Majesty's ship Caesar ; Mr. James Fergusson, assistant-engineer, late of her Majesty's ship Nile, since deceased ; Samuel Boundy, caulker, late of her Majesty's ship Exmouth ; William Harton, private Royal Marines, late of her Majesty's ship Blenheim, since deemed ; George Cook, ordinary seaman, late of her Majesty's ship Duke of Wellington ; and Robert De main, late stoker on board her Majesty's ship Cressy. The following officers composed the Court ;—Commo dore Christopher Wyvill, President ; Captain-Superin tendent John Jervis Tucker, Captain Richd. L. Warren, Captain Lord Erederick Kerr, Captain the Hon. Arthur A Cochrane, C. 8., and Mr. William Webb Hayward, Judge Advocate, Lieut. John W. Crispo officiated as officer of the Court. The case for the prosecution occu pied the whole day. The court assembled at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, and closed at 1 p.m. on Thursday. The prisoner was assisted by Mr. McCarthy Stephenson, solicitor, of Chatham._ The witnesses called to prove the charges were :—Mr. James Cunningham, hospital dresser, late of the Bel leisle, sent on board the Cottingham to assist Dr. Wal lace ; George Cook, ordinary seaman ' • Robert Demain, late stoker on bourd the Cressy ; an d Samuel Boundy, caulker of the Exmouth. The prisoner, in his defence, which was of considerable length, complained of the long period that the Admiralty had allowed to elapse since his return home, he having during that period done occasional duty on board the flag•ship at Sheerness, and having no official notice of their intention to bring him to a court-martial until the 17th of the present month, he having arrived at Sheer ness on the 10th of September last. He had, therefore, been deprived of the opportunity of getting witnesses to support his defence, in consequence of the Admiralty having appointed most of them to foreign stations. The prisoner produced a great number of testimonials of the highest character, in addition to his service certificates, and called witnesses, also, as to his treatment of the in valids and his character generally. The Court having been cleared remained in consulta tion from 10.45 a.m. to 12.40 p.m. On re-opening, Mr. W. W. Hayward read the finding of the Court, which was—• That the first charge was fully proved, and that the second charge was proved to the following ex tent—that the prisoner bad been guilty of treating Boyd, Whitehouse, Cook, and Detnain in a harsh and unkind manner, and did not treat them with sufficient care and attention ; but, taking into consideration his former good conduct, proved by the numerous certifi ficates which bad been produced, they only adjudged him to be dismissed her Majesty's service, and he is hereby dismissed her Majesty's service accordingly.
