The General Court Martial, for the trial of Lieu-
tenant GREGG, who is also Assistant-Surgeon of the
Surrey Militia, on charges brought against him by
Major BumEy, of the same regiment, founded on has
absenting himself from his duties Without leave, was
commenced at the Castle yesterday, and the whole of
the business for the prosecution gone through. This
morning Lieut. Gnaw read his defence, which was
couched in very feeling terms, the principal cause of
the misdemeanor for which he was called to so severe
an account, having a wife whom he tenderly loved,
dangerously indisposed at a distance, to visit whom
he had repeatedly applied for leave of absence in vain.
The Court did not hear his defence n: .m .ved, nor
could he read it without betraying great emotions
himself—and the general hope is, that the military
fault will be visited with leniency, if not entirely for•
given, in consideration of the lacerated feelings of the
husband and the man. The Court was adjourned
sine die, before three o'clock. The result cannot be
publicly known until it has received the sanction of
the King.—Corporal Curtit, of the Oxford Militia,
,
iwnose trial we noticed in former letters, is at ---
confined at the Horse Barracks, the station of
of the troops of the 10th Light Dragoons.
