eNiaval Court Martial.
On "wednesday last June 2Sl a Court
Martial was held on board II. M. S. Ak
bar, for the trial Of Capt. the hon. G. Doug
las. the officers and crew of the Levant;
and capt. Gordon Falcon, tire oii5cers
aud crew Of the Cyane and to investl-
cate the causes which led to the capture
|of those ships in Feb. last, by the Ame-
rican ship of war Constitution. The
court was composed Of:
Capt. Charles BulIen, of II. N, S. Akber,
President.
Capt. the Hon. J. A. Crofton, Narcissus.
x. c. Spencer, CyGnuss
Capt. Henry Jane, Arab.
Francis 1ruscott, Regulus.
Charles Martyr, ESQ. Judge Advocate.
We understand that after thorough
Investigation, the court was fully Of OPT
MON, that their capture was to be attIi-
buted to the very superior force OF tie
enemy's ship, and to her great SUPERIOR
ty in sailing, which enabled her, through
out TIE action, to keep at such dis
lance, that their carcnades were OF little
effect, while she was constantly keeping
I'D steady fire from II long twenty
tour FOUNDERS; and tlet the Officers ard
men evinced the greatest skill and intre-
pidity defending their ships in manner
highly honorable to them, while 1t could
be done with tie least prospect CT sue
cess.-It is almost unnecessary TO add,
that the captains, officers aid sen OF
bath ships, were fully and most honora-
bly, acquitted.
The court assed'a high encomium on
the conduct CT the ships companies. ex-
pressive of the sense it entertained Of
their loyalty, in resisting the repeated
offers made to them to enter the service
of the enens. We are assured, that the
whole of tle men were confined in the
iold Of the Constitution, in waSm CHI
mate. with their legs in chains and band
cufcd, FIR three weeks; during which
tine repeated attempts we're made by the
,fieers and crew OF the American ship
to sake their attachment to their king
aud country; but without effect.
