The Taylor Court Martial.

The record OF the court martial in the case OF
Col. Joseph H. Taylor, assistant adjutant general,
stationed at Newport, KY. has been received at
the War department. The case will go to Judge
Advocate General Swain for review, and will then
be submitted to the President for his action 1t is
understood that the court found Col Taylor guilty
of the charge Of invoking political in f1uence to
secure the revocation OF order transferring him
to duty on the frontier, and sentenced him to be
reprimanded in general orders. The specific alle-
ttlOnS on which Col. Taylor was tried were that
hewrote letter in which he impugned the mo-
tveS OF the authority which gave the order for his
transfer, by alleging that the change was made to
please an officer junior to himself (Col Corbn)
thereby subjecting him (COl. Taylor) to inconve-
nience and expense; also in giving formal notice
that he intended to use political influence to have
the order revoked, thereby intimating that he
would goOver the head OF the Secretary of War
II is explained at the War department that while
officers OF The army often ask political influence
to secure favorS Slch aS promotion, leave OF alb
Sence and what are known as tndulgenceS, it is
always considered military offence for an officer
TO such outside influence to secure the reyoca-
ton OF an order, as it is generally supposed that
If there are reasonable grounds for It, they will be
duly considered by the proper superior officer, to
whom such applications should always be ad-
dressed.
