BATTLE OF NAVARIN.

COURT MARTIAL MARTIAL uron CAPTAIN DICKENSON, R.N.
(emus out consurounner.)
PORTSKOU/11, DAT.
Again this morning the m.mbers of the Conn.:turtle! re►umed
their important investigation at the appointed hour. On (be sitting
of the Court, Capt. Dickenson requested that the letter which Sit
Edward Codringtoo stated, in bis evidence yesterday, to have
written to the Lords of the Admiralty ftom Malta, complaining of
the conduct of the Genoa, should be read by the Court.
The Arivecare-Gzegam. said, that be bad it not.
The COOLT thereupon ordered it to be written for.
Capt. BATIIIS was then called to depose to the 6th and 7th
charges, mentioned in our Paper yesterday. The charges being
read, be was requested to state all he knew relative to them. He
said that the impression on his mind was, that the Genoa was
tardy In her refitul. On the morning after the battle, he saw her
miser-mast fall overboard.

By the Passau:sr—He was of opinion that the Genoa was fit
to go to sea en the 24th ; be believes she was reported fit on the
25th. He does not know whether the Asia was retarded going to
sea by the tardiness of the Genoa; the impre.sion on Isis mind is,
that she was one of the causes which prevented the sailing of the
squadron ; be did not see any cause why the Genoa dropped astern
of the A•ia. He cannot recollect whether the Asia or Genoa were
the best sailors. The Genoa appeareJ to spread more sail after
they lett Navarin.
By Sir H. Bh.scuwooo—l wish Captain Baynes would stare his
reason fur saying the Genoa was tardy.
Capt. Bayliss—From her nut being ready until the 25th, and
receiving assistance from the Gla4guw, when the Asia, which bad
received more injury, was ready on the 24th.
Sir Huse Bhamtwoon--Cati you sag who the officer was who
came on board the Asia to re; ort the devil of CaptAin Bathurst?
Captain BATIIIIF4 have no recollection who it was.
By Captain SCNOM3III4—Who was the first that informed you
of she wound. of Captain Bathurst ?
Captain Baysta—l heard it that eveiling,.buf I cannot say who
it was that told me. •

By Capt. &tiara—Was tbs Asia at work all night of the 1.541?
Captain Bantus—No; we did not work all night; we worked
tW a late boar in the evening, and commenced at day-tight nest
morning.
Captain Ei.t.torr—Was We. Asia in a state to go to sea ou the
morning of the 24th?
Captain 1131111'1111hI cannot say she was ; she might have been
got ready shortly after, if necessary.
Captain litusurr--Wu it possible to have got the .Isla ready oa
the night of the 24th?

Captain Bareas—Certahtly,lf It Ind been requisite.
Captain F.suore—Did you torm any opin.on before the 24th u
to the tardiness ot the Genoa?

Captain Baroxs—l don't recollect.
Cape. &Lorry—Had the Ada any assistance front any other ship?
Capt. Barna—We had no assistance, except w►at we got Huns
the tender.

Capt. Ea.:Jove—Did you think that the inizen-mast of the Genoa
feU fur want of proper attention ?--if precaution bad been taken,
It baying stood thirteen houri after the action, it would riot have
oceared.

Was the Asia's complement complete during the action?—The
Ada's complement was not complete; there were 605 ; her full
complement is ';4O, exclusive of twenty supernumeraries. There
were several Midshipmen included in the Admiral's retinue, which
were included in the 603.
Do you remember the Genoa passing the Asia?—Yes.
Did she appear to have great superiority in sailing on that day ?
—Sbe did.

Did you attribute it to any additional sail she had set ?—Yes, I
saw the maintop-gallant-sail set; there might have been others.

Huw much did the Genoa gain on the Asia that day?—Fire or
six miles perhaps.
By Captain Gosoox—State, as near as you can recollect, the
condition of the Asia, with respect to her masts and rigging, at
the conclusion of the action?

The main-mast and mizon-mast were in very bad condition ; all
oar shrtsuds were cut away.—(Here Captain Baynes entered into
a long technical account of the state of the rigging).
Did the Genoa sail in company with the Asia and squadron
previous to the action ?--Sbe did.
Wu the Genoa as active as other ships In her evolutions ? Ido
not think she was.
By Captain DiCEISIMII—Where did you hitch your jury misen-
mast ?—On the main deck.

How many fishes had you on the main deck?—We had one of
our fishes abaft the mast.—(Hero the witness 'gain entered into a
technical description of the ship's tackle.)
Captain DiCMIIIOII asked permission of the Coati to put the
following question—ln what part of the bull of the Ada did else
suffer most (tom the enemy's fire?
Captain Banns—ln the after 'part, on the starboard side.
The Paganize: observed, that a description of the injury the
Asia sustained ought to be written for to the Dock Yard, and direct-
ed the Advocate-General to do so. Capt. DIMIXIIOII said, that he
bad a great many questions to ask, but be should prefer them be-
ing asked by the Court ; but, for his pan, be was satisfied.
Mr. AMDSZWS, the Purser of the Gordo, was then called. The
Jonas called on him to state what he knew of the misen-mast of
the Genoa going overboard ?
Mr. Ausszws--I was on deck ors the morning of the 91st of
October, at eight o'clock. Capt. Memnon was on board. I ob-
served to him, if the men were not called down from the top, that
they had a chance of going overboard. They were called down,
and shortly after the mizen-mast went overboard. I did not hear
that any thing was done to secure it.
Paearozirr—What reason had you to think that the men would
go overboard?
There was a heavy gale from off the land.
Captain Scrioruszata—What was the nature of the injury the
mast had received?

The mast was very severely wounded about the poop deck ; I
sbould think six or seven feet.

TheAovocays-Grosaat said, that be had received letters front

the Admiralty, stating that the gunner's books were sent to him,
giving an account of the quantity of powder used on board the
Asia, Genoa, and Albion at the action of Navarin. The books

were then produced, but in the absence of the gunner the evidence
could not be received. l'he gunner of the Genoa was ordered to
be sent for.
Captain Dscumesou stated that the extracts were incorrect, inas-
much as he had received a letter front the gunner, who is now at
Sheerness. stating, that in the action of Navarin there was 11,375
lbs. of powder, whereas that part from the gunner's books states
that there were only 70891b5. made use of.
Mr. Wood, the simmer, as also all other gunners wbo made out
the extracts, proved them, and there appeared from them, that on
the 20th October, 1827,
The Asia used 9,292 lbs of powder
The Albion . 11,902
The Genoa . 7,689

The extracts also contained the quantity of cannonades, balls,
grape shut, &c. &c.
Capt. Dicer:mos objected to tuese extracts, as being incorrect,
and therefore required the gunner of the Genoa to be written for.
The Court was ordered to fie cleared kand after an absence of
al minutes we were again admitted, when the Court informed
Capt. D. that the gunner of the Genosihould be written tor.
Capt. Smern was called in support of the 7th charge, as to the
mizen-mast of the Genoa going overboard—he was requested to
state what be knew about it.—He said, that alter the action, when
they had thrown the dead overboard, they nude every necessary
exertion to secure the nusen-mast by fishes. The injury which
the mast suffered was great—it was nearly cut one-third through
about nine or ten feet above the deck. On the morning that the
mast fell, be tassel ved it to totter, and the men who were aloft on
it were called down; they scarcely had got down when it fell.
He attributed it to the injury it had received, as era; as a
sudden blast of wind coming at that moment. He further stated
another circumstance which also contributed to its fall, which was
endeavouring to unship the topmast.
By Admiral OTWAT Was every proper precaution taken to save
the misen-mast ?
In my humble opinion there was.
By Captain Suowazza—Was it Captain Dickenson who ordered
you to do what was dune to secure the mast ? It was.
Captain Goat:son—l would wish to know what the actual state
of the Genoa was with regard to her masts, yards, and rigging.
I beg leave to read minutes which I made myself immediately
after the action, descriptive of her state, which I think will be a
full answer to the question. He then read a lodt list of minutes,
with an account of the number of wounds which the masts received,
and also the number of shrouds which were shot away.
Captain GoaDon—State the condition in which the Genoa sailed
from Navatin.
I cannot from recollection state what quantity of sail we could
make when we left Navarin; but this I recollect, that in such a
state of equipment and repair was the Genoa put in Navarin and
on her passage to Malta, considering the extent of damait abe re-
ceived, comparatively nothing was left to be dune at the dock-yard
at Malta.
Captain Goanos—What was the complement of the Genoa, and
was it complete at the action?
I think it was, or nearly sot it was between 530 and 550 men.
By Capt. DICIICENION- What further assistance did we get in the
dock-yard at Malta for the mast ?
" Five clasp hoops put on."
Capt. Cusses was then called, when the Preddent said that be

understood be wished to correct hi, evidence, as far as regard, d
the number of killed and wounded.
Capt. Cuezon said he did not wish to correct it. as far as
Impression on bin own mind west hut that he had ices a locum- t
upon which be could with more safety rely than upon his owl, n.. -
awry • but it did not alter the total number.
The Court a id, if that was the case, the evidence need not i.e
altered.
Capt. OSIKAISZT was called, to know why he bad not signed the
gunner's book ? He replied, that it was the gunner's business to
have brought it to him ; he passed his accounts at the Admiralty,
and received his pay—(A laugh).
Captain Dos:woos—Did you, during the battle. fire both your
broadsides ?—We fired principally from the starboard, and some-
times from the larboard side.
Did you fire both your broadsides at once?—tide did.
The eighth charge was now gone into, which was the Geliill
having fired after the battle, when
Sir EDWAND CODILISOTOIS was called, who stated as follows
Towards the close of the action, one of the F.gyptian frigates nest
to Bloharim Beys ship was on fire, and appeared he, drifting
down upon the Ada. The last engagemei. t which the Asia
had with any ship of considerable tome was this very frigate
on fire, and Moharim Beys ship. The situ,tioa of the Asia
at that moment, being in a line with the wind, and the line of
her opponent enveloped with smoke, was in a great measure
invisiEge with the ships in the line on either side. A cessation of
the firing seemed to me to take place. and I subsequently learned
their ansiety fat the safety of the Asia, each ship endeavouring to
get boats to our assistance. At this momeni the frigate in question
blew up, and exploded. and upon the smoke clearing away, I had a
good view of the ships around me. Nome of them, not immediately
cositiguou. to the Asia, recommenced tiring; but as I before stated.
Ido nut think the Asia fired a gun after the battle. Observing the
Genoa fire at thistime, and nut seeing any reason for her so (wing,
but thinking she was likeiy to damage some of our own snips, I
hailed her I think myself, and desired her to cease, anti she did
cease.—(The entry at: the lug-book was read, which corroborated
Sir Edward's statement).
Pacsauncv--lis w hat position with respect to the Asia was the
Genoa lying after the smoke had cleared off?
Nearly in the position 1 had seen her during the action.
In that position could any of her larboard guns bear upon the
Asia

They certainly could; but I am convinced no shut came from
bet it.to the Asia.
Admiral ()near —Did the Cellos coeditor to lie after the bat:lei
to the probable injury of the Allied l..rcet?
Sir bred after chat 1 comierred her battle; I
looted round to sew if three wet any ‘ufEcirot object to fire, and.
bring convinced she was likely to do harm, I hail,d her.
The COURT adjourned at a little after four, and it is expt tied
that the caae, on the part of the prosecution, will cln,c to-morrow.
The only charge now IP be dispo.rJ of Is that of the round-robin.
The Court was crowded to race's throughout •he day with ladies.

The Lady of Capt. Dickemon, ou Alunday last, at Mount Plea-
sant, Plymouth, was early delivered of a son and heir, and in arti-
cipation of the result of the Court Martial, it is said ht has bee.'
christened '• Navarkto."

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT, LANCASTER, Sim ;.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY arrived here on Saturday even-
ing, and shortly after proceeded to the Court and opened
the commission. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE did not ar-
rive here until yesterday morning.
The calendar contains the names of near seventy pri-
soners. Amongst the cases there are six charges of
murder, and several cases of manslaughter, and nearly
thirty charges of having maliciously entered certain loom
shops, with intent to destroy manufactured goods, and
ith intent to break and destroy looms, machines, tackle,
;ifid implements. Against some of them there are no less
than six indictments, and some of the indictments con-
tain as many as fifty-two counts. There are also several
aggravated cases of uttering forged notes to a very great
extent.

At an early hour Mr. Justice BA YLEY took his seat
on the Bench in the Crown Court ; and the usual forms
having been gone through, the Grand Jury were sworn,
Lord STANLEY being Foreman for the seventeenth time.
Elizabeth Holder, wife of Henry Holder, aged 29,
was indicted for killing and slaying John Holder, her
infant child, at Manchester ; she was also charged on
the inquisition of the Coroner with the like offence.
Mr.- BRANDT stated the nature of the case. The pri-
soner placed her child on wet straw, and wholly neglected
it ; she did not give it sufficient nourishment, and by such
ill-treatment and neglect the child became ill, and lan-
guished from the Ist of May until the Ist of August,
when it died. The Learned Counsel then called the fol-
lowing evidence :
Susannah Ellison was in the service of the prisoner
from Easter last until the Bth of July; the prisoner's
husband was manager of the liquor-vaults at the Swan
Inn, Deansgate, Manchester ; when she went to live with
them they had four children ; the youngest was named
Thomas—it was always called Thomas—it was christened
by that name. (This being a variation from the name
.lobn, in the indictment, was fatal to it).
Mr. BRANDT then proceeded on the inquisition.
Susannah Ellison's evidence continued—The child was
six weeks or two months old ; it was suckled by its mo-
ther for a short time ; it was usually put into a cradle,
and there laid upon straw ; it was frequently put upon
the straw at about seven o'clock in the evening, and re-
mained there until one or two o'clock the next day ; the
straw was in a very nasty state. The husband usually
came home at about 11 o'clock, and he often went out
afterwards with his wife, and stayed out until two or
three o'clock in the morning, and sometimes all night ;
they had done so as frequently as two nights in a week ;
she (witness) had often offered to nurse and to feed the
child, but the prisoner told her to mind her own busi-
ness ; her mistress gave it sleeping stuff, and the food
that it had was bread cut off the loaf, dipped in treacle ;
it had a bottle of stuff given to it which came from the
doctor's ; her mistress had asked her if there were any
searchers there, as there were in London, and she re-
plied that she did not know what searchers meant—but
thole were two old women who looked at dead pergola;
the father, she understood, had 30s. per week ; he was
not in want; he was very fond of the child; the child
would sleep all night, and when it awoke it was not fed ;
witness never had any quarrel with her mistress.
Re-examined.—Her mistress went out every night.
She had seen her mistress give something out of a bottle
three or four times. The stuff was called " Davis's
quietus." She only cleaned the child once. Her mis-
tress sometimes cleaned it, but not frequently. The straw
was not changed. The child was very seldom taken up
into the arms, and was not then always cleaned. Its
covering was a petticoat, or any thing else that she could
find. The mother put its petticoat on its body. The fa-
ther and mother differed about the child.
By Mr. Justice BAY I.F.Y—She never named to any
body but to Mrs. Taylor the manner in which the child
was treated ; there was no sheet in the cradle, nothing
but straw ; it had napkins on ; its mother changed them;
its mother sometimes gave the child port wine for about
a week when it was poorly; no doctor came to see it ; the
mother when it was poorly attended it very indifferently.
Esther Taylor had known Mr. and Mrs. Holder for
about nine months. (The testimony of this witness went
to confirm that of the servant). She had often begged
of the prisoner not to give it the sleeping stuff; the pri-
soner, she believed, was very fond of drink ; she had ex-
amined the body of the child ; the lower part of its body
•was in a shameful state. She was the mother of eleven
children, and she did not consider bread and sugar was
proper food for such an infant ; the mother would have
allowed her to suckle the child, but it would not take the
breast.

On being cross-examined, she said that the child lived
three weeks after Ellison left ; the child was weaned at
seven weeks old. It was a healthy child before it was
weaned, and it then began to pine away.
Other witnesses deposed as to the state of the child.
One of them who had nursed the child admitted that the
mother would not let it stay away from her all night, and
that she had told her to get every thing proper for it,
and if she wanted more money to be sure to send for it;
the mother appeared to be fond of the child.
By Mr. Justice BAYLEY-It had no wounds upon it,
and did not appear to have been neglected.
Mr. BRANDT here said he did not wish to press the
case ; and
Mr. H. Oilier, surgeon, of Manchester, 'being called,
said that from the evidence that he had heard he could
not pronounce an opinion as to the cause of death.
The Jury, therefore, returned a verdict of Not Guilty.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY said that the prisoner would be
set at liberty without the least suspicion being attached
to her character.
OXFORD CIRCUIT—GLOUCESTER, Am 31.
James Walkley was indicted for stealing from Michael
Clunie, mariner, at Rodborough, on the 13th of February
last, seven bank notes of 1001. each, and a 201. note.
Mr. Cunwoon and Mr. WATSON conducted the pro-
secution.
Michael Chmie—l am an American, a Captain of a
merchant vessel ; I have been in England two years ; I
brought with me 1,025 ounces of silver, which was lodged
in the Bullion Office at the Bank of England ; I after-
wards received 8201. for it. I lodged in Savage-gardens
last autumn ; I frequented a coffee-house in Crutched
Friars, the French Horn, kept by Cave; he introduced
me to the prisoner as a Gloucestershire man in difficulties
then, but who had seen better times ; the prisoner had
then a different appearance, more respectable ; I intended
to invest my money in English goods—some front Bit.,
minghant. I came to Gloucester to see the country—my
only motive; I found the prisoner lining in a small house
at Hedlntry ; I lived with the prisoner at his recommen-
•dxtion, to save expense ; I had then nearly 800/. with
me, which the prisoner knew ; he had often remarked that
he thought it very wrong to carry so large a sum about
with me: On the 12th of February I lost a 501. note ;
- the same day I had lent him a 101. note. I asked him if
• lie had seen it ; I thought I might have lent hint a 501.
instead of a 10/. ; I did not impeach him ; I would have
trusted hint with a houseful of sovereigns; I did not sus-

pect him ; he said, "Oh ! you can't have lot that with-
out losing more ; you must have lost all if any ;
I took my notes out, and he snatched a 1001. note up ;
he returned it in the morning; he said, " you see you've
lost, or dearly lost a 50/. note ; you'd much better leave
your money at home." At his suggestion, I counted
out 7501. and gave it to the- prisoner's wife to keep ;
shortly after, the prisoner said he was going to Stroud ; I
was going another way, and I asked him what time he
should return ; he said one o'clock ; I returned at
one ; he had not come home at eleven o'clock that
night ; I found he had taken my money ; I did not
see him again till the 23d of June ; he was then in
custody ; I endeavoured to find him before, but without
effect ; I called at Mr. Robinson's, in London, in whose
service a daughter of the prisoner resided ; she gave me
a letter written by the prisoner to his daughter. [This
letter was read, confessing that he had taken the money,
but attempting to justify himself.]
Mr. Hincks, a clerk in the Bank of England, produced
the 1001. notes.
Two other clerks to country banks proved that the pri-
soner had brought in the notes for change, and had given
his own name.

The Jury retired, and found the prisoner Guilty.
George Walkley, the son, was indicted for receiving
the above notes, and Acquitted.
