COURT MARTIAL

The Court• Martial on Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel
'lnv met again yesterday, by adjournment, and pro.
cecded is the examination of several witnesses:—Mr.
Martin, sen. of Brighton ; Mr. Pocock, of the Union
Bank, in that town ; and Mr. Benjamin Ridge, of
Chichester. A voluminous epistolary correspondence,
incidental to the charges, was afterwards put in and
read, and about four o'clock the case on the part of
the prosecution was closed, and the JUDGE ADVO-
CATE inquired of Colonel Hay when he would be
ready with his defence ? In reply, the Colonel said,
the details which it would be necessary to bring for-
ward, in elucidation of the transactions on which
these charges had been founded, were so complicated
and extensive, that he should require some days.—
lie observed also, that notwithstanding the express
injunction of the Court, two of the Morning Papers
had thought proper to publish the Charges against
him, coupled with remarks of their own, insinuating
more even than the Charges themselves conveyed,
and thus he had been wantonly, if not invidiously,
sent forth through the country as one who had been
guilty of fraud, even before the investigation of those
charges could be said to have commenced. He
trusted, therefore, the Court would give him ample
time to arrange his defence with the greater care, in
order the more completely to do away the false im-
pressions thus illiberally created. Strangers were
then ordered to withdraw, and, after some conversa•
tion, the Court adjourned to Tuesday next.
Colonel HAY has been highly distinguished during
the late war; He is the brother of Mr. HAY, the
Secretary to the Irish Catholic Board.

NEW YORK, JANUARY 8.
SOIITII AMERICA.—This morning arrived the Mi-
das, Captain Dickerson, in 90 days from Coquimbo,,
with copper, to John Donnell—sailed on the 27th of
November. Accounts were received at Coquimbo,
that, on the 6th of September, the Royalists had eva-
cuated Conception, after blowing up the fortifica-1
dons, ate : an illumination took place on the occa-
sion. The expedition that had been fitting out at
Valparaiso against Conception, had, in consequence,
turned their attention to Lima with redoubled vigour,
and intended shortly sailing.
An embargo had been laid at Valparaiso, and or•
ders for enforcing it at Coquimbo, had just arrived,
