the Charges on which he has been tried 1t oc-
cupies so pages, and is elaborate and able per-
formance The writer meets every charge with
great fitness of detail, ard puts them in very
different light from the witnesses the trial.
Considerable acerbty of feeling is shown, as is
natural enough; and tie conclusion at which we
have arrived is, that Lieut. Wilkes is an officer of
talent, energy and ZEAL and that the difficulties in
his cruise partly from his excitabiity of tenn
per, and partly from the jealousy of his brother
officers at the high station given to officer of
such nominally low rank.
