The Commatider.in-thieT entirely approves the sentence of the
General Court• Martial ; he nevertheless, after the most mm ure and
deliberate consideration of all the circumstances of the case. is so
couch inclined to believe that the troubles and embarrassments in
which Lieutenant M.Naghtert has involved himself and others,
are more attributable to great error in judgment, than to Inc
other cause, that be is pleased to remit the penalty awarded by the
Court.

After the proofs, however, which Lieutenant M‘Naghten ha
afforded, of the total absence of that calm and dispassionate judj.
eo peculiarly requisite in an officer holding the Staff appoint-
menrof a Deputy Judge-Advocate General, and especially erineed
in the instances of the " gross invective against Captein Kenney
and the indecorous observations rpm the decision of a termer
Court-Martial," co justly reprobated by the Court, whose proceed.
ing: are now under review, the Commander-in-Chief will consider
it his duty to recommend that he may be removed from that office.
In the mean time his Excellency is pleased to direct, that Litute.
nant Al'NJghten may be released from arrest, and return to his
