right courtly production. They find Colonel Quentin guilty of so much of the first charge as imputes "" NEGLECTED HIS DUTY as COM

to him the having MANDING officer, on the 10th of January, by leaving some of the divisions WITHOUT ORDERS, when ATTACKED by the ENEMY." But acquit him of the rest of the charge.

Now as all the rest of this charge is inferential, we must presume that, to leave troops without orders, is NOT disgraceful to a commanding officer, nor any mark of incapacity. To have, in consequence of your neglect, your men and horses made prisoner by the enemy, does not lessen the confidence of the soldier in your skill and courage, is not prejudicial to good order and discipline, and, by no means, contrary to the articles of war.

Of the second and third charges the court acquits. the Colonel.

Of the fourth, relaxed discipline, they find him GUILTY of ALLOWING IT TO EXIST in the regiment while under his command; but having before been censured, they do not think proper to increase the reprimand. And the result of all is, that the Colonel be REPRIMANDED on the first charge, in

such manner as H. R. H. the Commander-in-Chief be pleased to direct.

On behalf of his Majesty, however, it appears "the greatest was behind"- the confederates are admonished of the severe responsibility attaching to those who become accusers of their superior— they are unmindful by it of what they owe to the first principles of their profession, by forming an opinion of their commander's personal conduct, which neither their general experience of the service, nor their knowledge of the alleged facts could justify. The merciful interpretation of their conduct attributes it to inadvertency in some, and inexperience in others-so they were all graciously kicked out of the 10th Hussars, without their swords, and ordered to hold themselves ready to join such other regiments of cavalry, as they should immediately be appointed to. But I will copy the names of the offending officers on this occasionassuredly with no intention to injure them.

I leave this business without a word of comment.

Mrs. Jordan's two sons were permitted to seek their fortunes in India, for having presumed to form an opinion as to the duties of commanding officers; which duties, it appeared, had been rendered more arduous by the want of co-operation in the corps. Even when they were sent out to India, a note accompanied them from M'M-begging that the strictest discipline, not to say severity, should be exercised towards them, in consequence of their share in the business of the 10th Hussars.
