Head-Quarters, Simla, 6th Nov. 1844.-At a General CourtMartial, holden at Poonah, on Friday, on the 4th day of October, 1844, Ens. Ralph Dudgeon, of her Majesty's 17th regt. was arraigned on the following charge : Charge. For highly disgraceful conduct, unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman, in having, in the cantonment of Ahmednuggur, on or about the night of the 18th Aug. 1844, repeatedly made use of most grossly insulting language towards Ens. Bourke, of the same regiment. Finding.-The Court, from the evidence before it, finds the prisoner, Ens. Ralph Dudgeon, of her Majesty's 17th regt. guilty of the charge preferred against him to the extent of disgraceful conduct, unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman; but acquits him of conduct highly disgraceful. Sentence. The Court, having found the prisoner guilty of the charge to the extent above specified, which, being in breach of the articles of war, does adjudge him to be dismissed her Majesty's service. Approved and confirmed, (Signed) H. GOUGH, General, Commander-in-Chief, East-Indies. Head-Quarters, Simla, 2nd Nov. 1844. Recommendation.-The Court, taking into consideration the provocation received by the prisoner, and making allowance for his excited feelings in an unguarded moment, strongly recommends him to the merciful consideration of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief. Remarks by the Commander-in-Chief in India.-The Commander-in-Chief, at the recommendation of the Court, is pleased to remit the sentence which Ens. Dudgeon has justly incurred, trusting that the peril he has been in will have due effect. Ens. Dudgeon must recollect that, not alone in public society, but equally in private life, courtesy and good breeding are absolutely essential to the character of a gentleman, that the strictest guard should be kept on conversation on all occasions, and that no language reflecting on the veracity of a brother officer can be tolerated. The sentiments of the Commander-in-Chief are to be communicated to Ens. Dudgeon in the presence of the officers of her Majesty's 17th foot, by the officer commanding the regiment, who will further express his Excellency's extreme displeasure that Ens. Dudgeon should have been so unguarded in his language as has been proved on the present occasion. APPOINTMENTS, &c.-Civil. BRANDETH, J. E. L.

The Court having most maturely weighed and considered the whole of the evidence brought forward in support of the prosecution on the charge, as well as what the prisoner, Assist, surg. W. F.

Finding on the Second Instance of Charge.-That the prisoner is guilty, "in having, at the time and place, and on the occasion set forth in the first instance of charge, submitted to be treated with great indignity, contempt, and insult by the aforesaid Lieut. Acton and other officers, then and there present, while a servant, by Lieut. Acton's orders, threw a tumbler of beer over him, he, the said Assist. surg.

Whistler, Deputy Judge Advocate General, VIII. District, Trichinopoly. Sir, I have the honour, by order of the Most Noble the Commander-in-Chief, to return the proceedings of the general courtmartial upon the trial of Assist. surg. Currie, M. D., for the re-consideration of the Court. I am instructed to state, that in the special finding of the Court, on the second instance of charge, the Court has found certain facts and acquitted the prisoner of the remainder of the instance in question, whereby it has in effect rejected the imputation grounded on those facts of the prisoner's conduct, being, as affirmed, unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentle man. As his lordship cannot conceive that this omission has been intentional on the part of the Court, and as a court-martial is bound to exhaust in its finding all and every part of the charge before it, I have been directed to return the proceedings for correction in this inaccuracy, whereby the finding on the second in stance of charge is incomplete.-I have the honour to be, Sir your most obedient servant, (Signed) THOS. B. CHALON, Judge Advocate Gen. of the Army. Judge Advocate Gen.'s Office, Fort St. George, 23rd August, 1844. The Court having most maturely weighed and reconsidered the whole of the evidence brought forward in support of the prosecution on the charge, as well as what the prisoner, Assist. surg. W. F. Currie, M.D., has urged in his defence, is of opinion: Revised Finding on the First Instance of the Charge.—That the prisoner is guilty of the first instance of the charge. Revised Finding on the Second Instance of the Charge.-That the prisoner is guilty, "in having, at the time and place, and on the occasion set forth in the first instance of charge, submitted to be treated with great indignity, contempt, and insult, by the aforesaid Lieut. Acton and other officers then and there present, while a servant, by Lieut. Acton's orders, threw a tumbler of beer over him, he, the said Assist. surg.

WHISTLER, Deputy Judge Advocate Recommendation of the Court.-The Court throughout the trial in which it has been engaged, has had a most painful duty to perform, the conscientious discharge of which it has not shrunk from.
