COURTS MARTIAL OATHS.

Lord COCHRANE said, that he felt himself bound
to make some- observations on the oaths administer-
ed to the Judge Advocate, the Members of Naval
Courts Martial, and•, the eviilence called in favour of
the defendant. He complained that the Judge Ad-
vocate was not bound to make•a copy of the evi-
dence adduced, and -as ail oaths in general bound
witnesses io speak the truth, the whole troth, and
-nothing but. the truth, the same should be done by
evidence called for a defendant, who did not think
themselves bound to state more than they were ask-.
ed. His Lordship was proceeding to refer- to some
observations that occurred on,the preceding evening,
in a debate, while strangers were excluded, but de-
sisted, on being called to order by Mr.. Pei cc% al, who
said it was not in order to refer- to expressions in a
former debate, which was also supported by a smi-
Jar remark from the Speaker. His Lordship' con-
cluded by moving,
That there be laid before the House copies of the oaths
administered to the Members of a Court Martial, to the Judge
Advocate, and to the witnesses."

•
Mr. CHOKER observed, that the two first oaths
were included in an A6t• of Parliament, and there-
fore the motion for these was unnecessary.
Mr. ROBERT, WARD had no objection to. a copy
of the last oath being produced, w.hich requited cor-
rettion.

After a few words from Sir FRANCIS BURDETT
and Lord FOLKESTONE, his Lordship moved for a
copy alone of the.. oath administered to witnesses,
which was ordered accordingly.
