Lieutenant Albert Waepel Sharp, of the Woolwich

charges of insubordinate and un-officer-like con-
duct, reassembled yesterday mcrning, when the
sentence of the Court, approved and confirmed
by the Admiralty, was read by Lieutenant and
Adjutant Fraser, the officiating Judge-Advocate,
to the following effect :—Firsi—That First-Lieu-
tenant A. W. Sharp, of the Woolwich division of
Royal 11.1?.rine Light Infantry, was accused of
falsely stating to his commanding officer, Colonel
J. T. Brown, of the Woolwich division of Royal
Marine Light Infantry, when submitting to him a
request for leave of absence on th.e afternoon of
Oct. 17, 1857, that his accounts with the mess and.
the messtuen wece paid up; and for declaring upon
his honour on the morning of the 18th that such
was a true statement, at which time a sum of 451.
53. 2d., or thereabouts, was due from him to Com-
pany Sergeant C. Demorr, officers' messman of the
division, on account of massing and othar i•ems ;
2d, for absenting himself from duty and parade
without leave from hie commanding officer on the
morning of Oct. 19, he having been previously re-
fesed leave of absence ; it appearing that the Court
having found the prisoner not guilty on the fist
charge, and guilty on thesecond, thecommissioners
do confirm the sentence, ordering First-Lieut. A.
W. Sharp to ba severely reprimanded and released
from arrest.

Two courts-martial are ordered to be held th7e
day on board H.M. ship St. Vincent, Captain H.
Eyres, C. 8., in Portsmouth harbour. The first is
on Lieut. R. Bradshaw, of H.M. ship Juno. The
charge is :
" That he did on board the said ship, on or about
Feb. 10, 1857, sleep upon his watch, and negli-
gently perform his duty while officer of the watch
and in charge of the said ship, lying in an exposed
anchorage, where the utino,t vigilance was essen-
tial."
The second is on Mr. R. C. Drewe, late acting
'master of H. M. ship Juno, on two charges :
" 1. For that he did, on board the said ship, on
or about Feb. 10, 1857, negligently perform his
duty and forsake his stadon.
"2. That he did, on board the said ship, on or
about Feb. 10, 1857, conduct himself with disre-
spect towards Capt. S. G. Freemantle. the com-
manding officer, by justifying his neglect of duty,
and refusing to receive a reprimand from his said
cvmmanding officer, which he had justly incurred."
The iron screw steamvsssel Sharpshooter 8, has
been, commissioned at Portsmouth by Lieut. C.
Gibbon. She is to be manned from the depot of
"general service" men on board the Victory, of
whom that ship has several hundred on her books.
The St. Vincent and the Blenheim are also over-
crowded with them, so that the commissioning of
any squadron would be easy just now.

The Cesar, 91, screw steam two-decker, was yes-
terday taken into the dock vacated by the Algiers:,
sister ship. They are fitting with all despatch for
commission if required. _ _
