[PRICE SD.

colonel reprimanding an officer for annoying Lieutenant
Perry ; and if so, what was the nature of the reprimand?
Witness—l was present some time after this occurrence
took place, when Colonel Garrett severely reprimanded an
officer, and ordered that officer never to enter Lieutenant
Perry's rooms either by night or by day.
By the Court—Had you any reason to suppose that the
officers you met in the passages were on their way to his
room ?

Witness—l had no idea where they were going.
By the Court—Wee Lieutenant Perry subjected ^to any an-
noyance or persecution in any way after Colonel Garrett had
reprimanded the officers for their conduct towards Lieutenant
Perry ?
Witness—l never heard or knew that Lieutenant Perry was
subjected to any annoyance after Colonel Garrett, had given
the reprimand I allude to.
By the Court—Was Lieutenant Perry shunned by his
brother officers; and if so, for why ?
Witness—l do not think that Lieut. Perry was ever on terms
of intimacy with his brother officers. There was not the same
feeling towards him as the othere. The only reason I can
assign for it was the peculiar forwatdness of Lieutenant
Perry's manner—a disagreeable kind of manner he had about
him.

By the Court—State as nearly as you can the purport. of
Mr. Perry's note. Was there any threat in it ?
Witness—The purport of Lieutenant Perry's note was that
he had been pulled out of bed. But I can positively assert
there was no threat in it.

By the Court—Did Colonel Garrett address any observa-
tions to Lieutenant Perry in particular, at the time of the re-
primand ? If so, what were they
Witness—No, he did not.
Lieutenant and Adjutant H‘Alester was then called, and
examined on his former oath. The second charge was read.
Prosecutor—Are yonadjutant of the 46th Regiment !
Witness—l am.
Prosecutor—Have you been present when Colonel Garrett
reprimanded an officer for annoying Lieutenant Perry
Witness—l have no recollection of having been present on
that occasion.

Prosecutor—Have you heard, on any occasion, Colonel
Garrett reproach Lieutenant Perry for making complaints, or
call him a fool for his pains ?

Witness—l have not.

Prosecutor—Did Lieutenant Perry, to your knowledge,
either by word of mouth, or in writing, threaten to complain
against Colonel Garrett to the general of the district ?
Witness—No.
Prisoner (in cross-axamination)—You seem to know no-
thing of my having complained to the colonel, and threat-
ened to appeal to the general of the district. Do you recol-
lect whether Mr. Dunscombe ever threatened to appeal to the
general of the district
Witness—Nothing ; except by hearsay. I was on duty at
the Pigeon-house at the time.
Prisoner—Was not Mr. Dunscombe's letter, relative to an
appeal to the general of the district, the subject of discus-
sion in the regiment
Witness—l heard that Mr_ Dunscombe had written a letter
of complaint to the colonel. It was improperly worded ; and
that the colonel had reprimanded Mr. Dunscombe.
The Deputy-Judge-Advocate—You do not know this of
your own knowledge ?
Witness—l do not. I heard the letter talked of. I also
heard that the colonel had not reprimanded Mr. Dunscombe
for making the complaint, but for improperly wording the
complaint.

They who returned to London last evening by the train
which left Brighton at 6.40 were not a little alarmed en
route. On arriving at the Three Bridges Station, the train
suddenly stopped, and on inquiring into the cause, it was
ascertained that tile stoker was drunk, and had committed
an assault upon the engine-driver by knocking him down
with an iron, afterwards pelting him front the back of, the
tender with pieces of coke ! The stoker was detained in
custody at the Three Bridge's Station.

Along discussion here took place between different mem-
bers of the Court as to the framing of the answer, which was
eventually entered upon the minutes in a slightly modified
form.

rGHTON MEETING.

Prisoner—Mr. Dunscombe's case occurred only a short time
ago. Was that letter filed in the orderly room ? Is it there
now ? and will you produce it ?
Witness—l was not adjutant ai the time, and I don't known
General Wetherell said the question had been answered on
the previous day by Captain Sandwith, who was adjutant at
the time.
Prisoner—Was it not also a subject of discussion in the re-
giment that I had written a letter to Colonel Garrett, threat-
ening to complain to the general of the district, but that I was
induced to withdraw it ?
Witness-I never heard it.

Prisoner—Did you ever hear me called " the malefactor,"
and other names after I had complained to Colonel Garrett ; if
so, for what reason I
Witness—You may have been called " the malefactor," but
that was not your nickname in the regiment.
Prisoner—l don't mean nicknames. I mean names that I
would resent.

Several members of the Court here intimated that the ques-
tion had not been fully answered, and a conversation ensued.
The Prisoner—lf the Court is satisfied that the question is
fully answered, I will not press it. I have no more questions
to ask the witness.

By the Court--Was Lieutenant Perry's society shunned by
his brother officers ? If so, was it for lhaving complained to
Colonel Garrett ?

Witness—l think he was disliked in the regiment. I never
shunned his society myself, and those who did so can give
their reasons for so doing.

By the Court—Was Lieutenant Perry subjected to annoy-
ance or persecution in any way after the officer who had an-
noyed him had been reprimanded by Colonel Garrett ?
Witness—No ; not to my knowledge.

.... 4

Prisoner (through the Court)—Was there !not a time, im-
mediately after I had complained to the colonel, when none
spoke to me ? Was I not virtually sent to Coventry ?
, Witness—No.
The Court adjourned for ton minutes. On the re-assem-
bling of the members,
Lieutenant Nicholas Dunsoombe was called and sworn.
The first and second charges were read over.
Prosecutor—How long have you been in the 46th Regi-
ment • I

Witness—Since the 23d of November, 1852.
Prosecutor—Were you present in Dublin, with other
officers when Colonel Garrett reprimanded an officer on a
complaint made by Lieutenant Perry ?
Witness—l was.

Prosecutor—Did Colonel Garrett on that or any other oc-
casion reproach Lieutenant Perry for making complaints, and
call him a fool for his pains?
Witness—Certainly not, on that oecasion ; and I am not
aware that he did so on any other occasion.
Prosecutor—Have you, since the regiment left Dublin,
and since that reprimand, been annoyed by other officers
forcing their way into your room, and pulling you out of
bed ?

`‘.3

---
Witness—l have, by the prisoner, himself, at Manchester.
Prosecutor—Has Lieutenant Perry at any other time an-
noyed you in a similar manner ; or has he aided and abetted
others in so doing f
Witness—Not to my recollection.
Prosecutor—State the nature of the annoyance you received
from Lieutenant Perry, and when and where it occurred ?
Witness—When in bed, at the barracks at Manchester,
Lieutenant Perry and another officer came to my room, and
smashed in the door, the prisoner at the time being rather
drunk. This occurred the latter end of April, or the begin-
ning of May, in the present year.
Prosecutor—Do you know whether Lieutenant Perry ever
threatened to complain to the general of the district ?
Witness—l do not.
Prosecutor—Were you pulled out of bed when Lieutenant
Perry and another officer smashed in your door ?
Witness—l do not remember that I was.

Prisoner (in cross-examination)—As you say you were in
bed when your door was broken in, how can you pretend to
say that I did it ?
Witness—l believe that you did it.

Prisoner—Did I not tell you, the next day, that I did not
do it ? Did not the other officer, who was with me, tell you
that he did it ?• And word you not satisfied that I had not
done it ?

Witness--I do not remember your telling me you had not
done it. The other officer did not tell me he had done it.
Nor did I feel satisfied that you had not done it.
Prisoner—Since this inquiry was instituted, and it was
known you would be called upon to give evidence, have you
spoken to any one on the subject of the evidence you should
give ? If so, state to whom ?
Witness—l decline to answer that question.
[A derisive murmur here passed through the court.]

; prisoner—After that answer, I have no more questions to
put to the witness.
By the Court—Were you ever pulled out of bed by Lieu-
tenant Perry, or when he was present?
Witness.. I was not.

By tll7oolW-2Wa; the time when you had your door
smashed in the only time when Lieutenant Perry annoyed
you ?
Witness—l think it was.
By the Court—On the occasion of your door being forced
open, did Lietenant Perry ever come into your room i
Witness—He did.
By the Court—Who was the officer who entered your room
with Lieutenant Perry on the night mentioned ? Were you
not pulled out of bed on other occasions ?
Witness—Lieutenant W. T. Waldey was the officer who
entered my room with Lieutenant Perry. I Waif pulled out
of bed on one other occasion.
Prisoner—l hope it is not understood by that answer that
he was pulled oat by me.
The President—Not at all.
By the Court—Did you ever write a letter threatening to
complain to the general of the district ?
Witness—l did.
By the Court—To whom was that letter directed ?
Witness—l am not sure whether it was directed to the
colonel or to the adjutant.
By the Court—Were you reprimanded for so doing, and by
whom ?
Witness--I was reprimanded by Colonel Garrett for making
use of a threat—for nothing else. I was young in the service
at that time. It was the first complaint I ever had to make,
and I believe I was blamed by the colonel for making the
threat before applying to him.

Witness—As near as I can recollect the time, it was some

By the Court—Have you any reason to believe that Major
Maxwell had anything to do with it
Witness—l had not.

By the Court—Was the prisoner one of the party on this
occasion ?

Witness—He was not.
The President—You may leave the room, sir.
Lieutenant Curtis was then called on the part of the pro-
secution ; but it being then four o'clock, he was not sworn,
and the court was formally adjourned until to-morrow (this
day).

PENALTY FOE. A Kiss.--In 1750, a trial took place in
Connecticut, under the section of the blue laws prohibit-
ing kissing. The offenders were Sarah Tittlo and Jacob
Newlice. It appears that Sarah dropped her glove and
Jacob found them. When Sarah asked for them Jacob
demanded a kiss for his pay; and, as the demand did not
seem to Sarah extravagant, she adjusted forthwith. The
facts were clearly proved, and the parties were each
fined 20s.
