Sin—lt having been decided that Regimental Courts Martial
should award the punishment of impri•onment in such cases
only, where the sentence can be carried into effect in places for
military confinement at the quarters of the corps, I am directed
by the General Commanding in Chief to desire, that you will
communicate this letter to the Officers under your coning ind, for
their guidance until further orders, and that you will take care
that no sentence of a Regimental Court Martial shall be confirmed,
which is nut in conformity to the instt actions now given.
It is hardly necessary to add, that in all such instances the addi-
tional award of hard labour, being impracticable, becomes of
course superfluous, and consequently incorrect.
I have the honour to be, Sir. your obedient humble servant,
H. TAYLOR, Adjutant- Cieneral.
Officer Commanding.

The rum market has received a fresh impulse from this notice,
and prices are improving. Jamaica and Leeward island may be
quoted Id. per gallon higher. The demand is brisk for exportation
and home consumption.

BATTLE OF N.ll-.4l?T.''.

COURT MARTIAL uroto CAPTAIN iii:IiENSON, It N.
(►ROIi OWL CORIESPONDF%T.)
SATUUDIIVFOUIIIH DA%
_

At the opening of the Court, Captain Itirbinson was inform,.
by the President that the Court could nor permit the pissages
his evidence of yesterday to be expunged, but he might add
he had to say by way of explanation.
Capt. BAYNES contradicted the account given in the Ge'itia's log.
Captain Turmas &mit, First Iteutenant of the Grllos. who
was stationed on her quarterrdeck during the action, affirmed
the correctness ot the log, and said it was never meant to describe
that they were engaged with so many Turkish ships, but 'Jot they
were merely exposed to their fire in the manner they wets placed
in the enemy's curve. He then proved the use of the Genoa'.
springs, and that it was by their use the Genoa was placed
in the beautiful position so highly praised by Sir Edward
Codrington. which brought her broadside on the enemy. and
made her opponent a complete wreck. The posit:on of the
Genoa occasionally shifted in the course or the illy, but her
guns always bore on the enemy. Tat-nog:tout the battle
the conduct of Cap.aiii Dickenson was retuark.e.l: lie cut'
ness, presence of mind, seal, and ability Wit!. respect
Sir R. Codrington coming on board the Genoa, he (Captain S ) re•
ceived him,and conducted him with a lantern to rht cock-pit.wheie
Captain Bathurst lay mortally wounded. The Vic., Admiral there
expressed his unqualified admiration of the position in which the
ship was laid, and the way lie maintained it ; when Captain IL •
thurst, in thanking him, expressed an anxious hope that the Lord
High Admiral would remember his wife and children. As ('apt.
Smith was conducting the Vice-Admiral back to the quarter.dec,i,
be met Captain Dickenson, who apologise...l for not being present.
As the Admiral descended the side ot the ship he inqutred it lie
knew whirr Mrs. Bathurst lived; which Captain S. ktiownig, an-
swered, and took charge of the delivery of the Admiral's with:tents
to that lady.
The COURT here went nn to the charge of is, alleged false rent ti
of Capt. Bathurst a. kitled, when be was only wounded, and sur-
vived the battle. liere a good deal of conversation took place be-
tween S r F. Codrington, who was introduced to the Court. and
the Judge Advocate, respecting lonic papers which had bee!. sent
down by the Admiralty, and which Sir Edward insisted were es•
seinial to the case ; they were intended to show the motive of
Capt. Dickenson in teturning Capt. Bathurst killed, in the rap •c•
action of thereby receiving a greater share of honours than he would
have been entitled to when it was known that Captain Ba-
thurst had survive d, and given orders to the end of the ars,on.
Oise or these. which was particularly dwelt upon, Was a fetter
from Mr. Criiker to Sir Edward Cudrington, at Nayarit:, re
questing that in the delivery of certain honorary order. tr
mit ted in a box, one of those of St. Anne should he giv• a to
Capt. Martian:l. Sir Edward replied to this letter, the ugh
the Lord High Admiral, complaining of this order beeng. given
to Capt. Dickenson, under the circumstances of the attend:. Sir
Edward then described the pat-Reams of his visit to take leave
of Capt. Bathurst, on board the Genoa, on the night of the ac-
tion, and persevered in stating, though he said he knew from
rumour his evidence on that point had been impugned, that it
was Capt. Dickenson, and not Capt. Smith. that receivi.d and
conducted him to the cock-pit, where (Sir Edw rd), conaidn•
Capt. Bathurst. praised in the highest terms the manner
which he had brought his ship into her position (his praise
being sully confined to that); that be had never praised her
management in the action, but when be came upon deck with
Capt.Dtckenson' had reproved him for neglecting to use hi. •prings.
Cross-examined by Captain DICKINSON—Q. Di 1 I not on that
evening go myself on board the Asia? A. You did not. Q. Did
not an Officer go on board you to report Captain Bathurst mortally
wounded, and was it not myself ? A. An Officer did cum-, hat:
not yoss Q Do you not remember my finding you set.ted in thr
cabin of the Asia on threatening of the battle, and you there telling
me that we must go to sea that night, from the prubability ot the
danger of being burnt in the harbour, and my desetibing to ylt.
the shattered state of the Genoa, giving particulars which rendered
it impossible that she could put to sea without slipping both our
anchors, and loosing our wizen and mainmast, as we had only ottt
shroud upon the two masts? A. Not one word ut this took place,
having no intention of sending a single sh'p out of port that night. no
could the Asia have stirred under any emergency. Q. Did not Admit
de Rigny also confer with you, saying, it would not be safe to gie
to sea that night ? A. Certainly not ; his own ship was as unable
to go to sea that night as himself. These questions were repeated
in rather a varied form by Captain Dickenson, when the answers
were—that " not one word of it could have passed, even if I had
seen you there." The only communication, added Sir Edward,
that 1 had from the Genoa on that evening, was Runt the officer,
not you, announcing that Captain 13. was mortally wounded.
Captain Dicaauson—Do you remember that at the same time
you were speaking of the battle, you sa d you did not know linw it
would be taken in England, but "at all events you Captain Lieu-
tenants would most likely be promoted ?"—A. Not one word of
that did or could have passed.
Sir H. Baacxwoon interrogated Sir R. Codritn.ton respecting
the return of the mortal wound of Captain Bathurst; and Sir E.
replied that an acount of his being returned with a list of the killed
and wounded, was the last return of the fleet, and was delayed by
the Genoa till he was about to close his dispatches.
The Passing/4r here said it was four o'clock. and asked if Capt.
D. had any further questions to ask Sir E. C.? be replied he had
several, besides wishing to have Lieut. Suitt examined upon some
of the points not recollected by Sir E. Codrington. Sir added,
that he had accompanied the Genoa's return of killed and wounded
with a memorandum after the word killed, as annexed to Captain
Bathurst's name, a correction, mortally wounded, died after the
action; and tbst he atterwards remarked to Captain 1). that it
' was fortunate for bim and the Surgeon that he had been with them
in tbe cock-pit, conversing witbC.pt. B. on the night of the battle,
as he was able of his own authority to make the correction befotc
be closed his dispatches, and thereby perhaps save the Captain and
the Surgeon from an unpleasant investigation of the point by the
Lord High Admiral.
It appeared, during a part of the evidence connected with tbe
complaint of Sir Edward Cudrington, respecting the Admiralty
documents, that Mr. Ctoker's letter about the Order of St. Anne,
for Captain Dickenson, was dated the 24th of December, 1827 ;
the official account of the battle having arrived in Downing-street
the 9th of November. &r Edward assigned as a reason why he
wrote his answer to the Lord High Admiral, complaining of this
Order for Captain Dickenson, that the Admiralty, through their
Secretary, had applied to him for copies of two secret papers of
the Government, which be had transmitted, and though he wrote
for an acknowledgment for their receipt. he had never received it.
It was this that induced bim not to write the second time to 31r.
roker.

The Court here said the hour of adjournment was come, and
they adjourned accordingly to nine o'clock on Monday morning.
CORN—EXCHA NUE, MAIM—LANK Aoo. Si.

Our supply of New Wheat this morning was immense, 2nd
although some of it was rather rough, owing to the weather, upon
the whole it was capital of its kind, and prices were considerably
effected, the best samples not being able to obtain within 6s. per
quarter of last Monday's prices, with a considerable quantity resold.
Foreign Wheat was extremely dull sale, but without any variation
in price. Barley, owing to the small arrival, fully supported our
last quotation. Beans and Peas were rather cheaper—a large
quantity of fine New Peas having appeared on the stands. Oats
were Is. per quarter lower, the supply being large. and the demand
having slackened at this season of the year. In other articles there
is no alteration.
