Mr. CIIIPP6 rose to move for leave to bring in a' a'13:11; to ;tumid the Acts uf the I3clt All.l i4itl S S 2 CORN)! AL CO R T s. . _ Colonel WARDLE rose, tot use purpose of callinl the attention of the House to the case of Corporal Curtis, of the Oxfordshire Militia. Before he en tered into the merits of the case of the poor man, lie wished to state, that be lied never seen him, nor had any comMunication whatever with him. The Officers composing the General Court Martial were wholly unknown to trim , with the excepti ,, n of the Presidetit, whom he knew merely by name. At j the same time be must dojustice to the character of the Colonel of the Qxfordshire Militia (Colonel Gore Langton). No num stood higher both in a public and private point of 'view. He was, there fore beend to state, when lie mentioned the name of the-H.m. Membet as implicated in the complaint, that he must have then grossly deceived with re sped to,the conduct of Corporal Curtis. This poor man was ill in the Isle of Wight, and wishing to see hint upon the subject of his complaint, he' (Cu!. Wardle) had gone, down to Portsmouth, but the wind blew at) hard that he could not cross over to the Island. Being obliged to return to town'the next day, he lett a friend there whom he desired in w Upon General Taylor, and intotm him that he c tine at the debit e of Cul. Wardle to speak to Robert Cur its. He saw the General, who peremptorily ie. tosed to I , t him have access to Curtis, hult•SS he had brought with him the authority of the Com mander to Chief ; and the General added thrt rear - "it he (Cot. W.) had requested to see him, he should have given hint a retusal. In this suet:4 things he had applied to the Cotninander ill Chief, and seve ral letters.passed on ',the occasion ; the result was," that he found there was no chance of seeing Curtis, unless lie chose to hive up the tarts he ha 4 ootained: respecting the proceedings. Having reasons tor wish ing to conceal these facts, which reasons he would now state to the House, he abstainkidi from disclos ing them t i o toe Comtnani;er in Chief. Asa Mem ber of Pailiaineot he conceived that he had a right to visit Curtis without assigning his motives. How ever, be that as it may, the reasons 'which induced hint to decline staling the taCts,to 'the C(' humander in Chief, were two of the. witnesses had been furred out of the country. The refusal of Grp. Taylor placed Curtis in a worse situation than is comitlimed felon, tor the latter had the liberty Of seeing his friends. The Hon. Gentleman then ro ceeded to state the.case of Curtis. He is, he .said, the, son of respectable paretos, and looked up to a different kind of life to the one in which he is now pia..ed. lie was induced, io consequence of the . large bounties °tiered, to inlist i n ter tile Oxfordshire Militia, as a substitute, hi the year I 08, and in 1810 was promoted to the rank of corporal: Ott the .23‘i in, c', tin rtratitlliose complaints which Avow the suhjeea of the present thqulry. One of these complutow mad* to the Colvuel was ; that great abuses had taken place in the regiment in respea to the tiniiishing 'of necessaries for the'inen-.t i lat an truer for turnialling to each ma n t h ree pa i r ot shoes was not complied with. Another abuse was-that ate iniproper detention of pay' had taken plice—that the Men were put under stoppages from the o 4 th• November to the e4th March, 18 to—!hat they bad not been supplied with the necessary regimental breeches; that on one occasion, cr,.;tit' months atter the complaint was made, one , of the men r‘ceived - two 'pair of &toes, and five shillings for tree:her. With resped to the stoppages of pay, that was an anpre.eedented thing, and contrary to the articles of war; for one of the clauses of the : mutiny 41,1. i pro- \ vides, " That if one month's pay is detaitred from any Officer or private, such privateshall, upon givs. informatiou, be entitled his discharge and iuol, re.v are." To prove that Curtis was not treeted with• justice at . the Collet Martial, lie had toe ;eatitotity of t Gentleman who attended for the purpoae of tAiug the depositions; and he would prime at the Bar, if ire( essary, that when Curtis made the complaint, his Colonel was an4ry, and told turn he' won'd try him for mutiny ; to wlech Curtis teplie.l.-" You cannot do th:e, Sir; for I AID a single man making a complaint ," and for ti ing this complaint' the redress which he had was, bring conlieed on the '2Olll. The charge upon which he was coutinei was that of being seen-in brown clothes at the dis tattoo of one mile from his eu triers. Ori this charge ' 'the Court Marti II reduced hiat to the ranks. Now, with respect to %sea' ing the broNti clothes, Cultis was aetiog Clerk to the Paymaster, and when elf duty was permitted to wear brown (lathes. At the time lie was so seen, the feet a (IN, that 'h e was em ployed to carry a letter to lite General ii th e as till: It was also hwurious, that the dt eitum r. sod privates were ellowid to go asa tar as Arundel with out It - ave. From this sentence of the Court he appeal,d, and irenested the General of du: Dm. 'riot t Lord Chirtes Suinvrset) to grant Meet a General Coliit Martial, on the ground its tt all abuse of the Mut Iv Act had taken place, in detiOning the subsiat. eine moor ) ; and all he wished was tor an oppor.. ti,,it ) to p , ove that fact against the (st .arter-Nl.ister. he answer e loch the Colonel ;aave t , . a fge t '' that ht- w.t, not aware of any c h ar g e against the Quat ter-Master, and that the ta....ectie, %tem, reedy," The Hon. GClnielnan theft insta,,ced the case of Governor Wall, - to chew that the Learned Jude, on that trial , complained that the Court- IVJarnal 'which had tticd the unfortunate 0:1411 %as Hut le vity assembled. All that Curtis desired to- have a regul sr General court Al :n o el. Of this' he complaint d, that tire (.1 merit!, from.wrong represemarisma, Was.induczd tri refuse the* appe a l, froth she Regimental to the General Court Martial, and thereby injustice arose. It was well known that Militia Courts Nl.:rtial wete composed of G.utleinen who held together by 'connectio n -- (Here there Was a general exclaniatian 'tg* Nu! no .1).-.What lie meant was, that in a g.meral point 01 view it was S ), for all perrous had' tiitit mid might be biassed. Weil the,), he would put t it in another point of vii!w; that it would his better that the charges `bete hearth n•lore a Gene. ral Court Martial, because ilia Mend) a ere nut SO well . known to each other. When Curtis w.aA brought up for sentence, claimed it's right of be ing heard in his appeal, but that r was refused to him, amid lie was tried on three new charges. SO much did the inhatntants of 'Brighton partak e of his leel lags, that they entered into 3 - litinSClipOon to defray , the expences of his trial, and to procure ham legal advice. A Gentleman of the profession of the l aw • was employed to condud his defence, but the Cdurt refused tp permit his witnesses to have communica tion with him, ,arid they even refused his Solicitor admittance to hith; the gteat-coat which be had was taken from him, and tteo Or bit; witnesses lidi• Las and Greenwood, who gave in a statement of the abuAes, were taken care of by the Colonel, and the result of the inquiry on their conduth, was a sett tense of .500 lashes each. The two men threw themselves on the mercy of the Court, anti that mercy awarded the punishment which be had jest stated.
