Provision was also made for a Judge Ad- vocate, who was empowered to adminis- ter oaths, examine witnesses, and so forth. It was only a few years later! thatanamendment was added toa bill | assigning death or such other punish- | ment as a court-martial should adjudge, for desertion or mutiny, to the effect | j that no sentence of death should be! passed except between the hours of six | inthe morning and one in the after- noon. This, according to Macaulay, was because dinner was early, and hard drinking being one of the qualifications | of a gentleman, it was not supposed that | any member of a court-martial, after! dining, would be in a state in which he! could safely be trusted with the lives of his fellow-creatures. In 1778 the first law for governing our | navy was passed by Congress, and it re- ferred to penalties for the losing of a man-of-war through negligence or mis- conduct. During the following yeara Board of Admirality was established, having, among other things, the power of ordering courts-martial, and it was recommended to the executive authori- | ties of different States to compel the at- tendance of witne bef courts- martial. A Secretary of Marine was authorized a year or so later, and he was vested with authority to order courts- martial and was ordered to transmit to Congress the proceedings of any court re- commending a capital sentence. Cap- | tains of vessels were authorized to ap-| officers, a power that they still hold, | but the proceedings of these summary courts, as they are called, are te be ap- proved by the senior officer present | after revision by the captain, excepting fi in cases where men are sentenced to loss | of pay, which are always submitted to} the Secretary of the Navy | The earlier law stated that genera! ! courts were to be composed of not more than thirteen members nor less than five, and the Judge Advocate was at that time the only one bound by oath not to disclose the vote or opinion of any mem- ber of the court unless obliged so to do in due course of law; whereas now all of the members are obliged to add that clause to their oaths, ‘‘to well and truly try the case now depending.” By the same articles, courts were empowered to imprison in cases of contempt of court or refusal to give evidence. The conception of courts-martia! as courts of honor as well as courts of justice is acknowledged by the great limitation given by the expression ‘or such other punishment as a court- martial may direct,” which is found sc frequently as an alternative for penal- ties prescribed for certain offenses. Sentences extending to loss of life re- quire the concurrence of two-thirds of the members present, whereas less severe sentences require only a majority of the votes. Sentences of death, as well as those of dismissal of a com- missioned or warrant officer, must be approved by the President. When all of the evidence for the prosecution and the defense has been submitted, and the accused has made any statement he may care to make, the court is cleared for deliberation, and then the members are ready, the voting is taken on the specification of the first charge, each member writing his opinion as to whether or not the specification is proved, proved in part or not proved. The votes are recorded by the Judge Advocate, who announces the result, and the voting on the charge is then proceeded with as to whether the accused is guilty, not guilty, or guilty in a less degree than charged, and so on through a!] the charges and specifications. Should guilt or partial guilt be proved, then each member writes down what he considers an adequate punish- ment, and when each one has submitted his opinion, they are all carefully read over, and > voting mildest pen first. the junior is hat sen ment aw | Was filled with pity and dis ' standing on one leg point courts for all but commissioned |. ° i again; the mages, but the ground tte for him t recited A mancap © of his own wrong.” shestnut that * jad | electric railway.

A Connecticut Soll ‘s Trying Experi- ence at Cedar Creek. Here is a description of what must have been a rather trying afternoon passed by a Connecticut man on the bat- tle-fleld of Cedar Creek. It is extracted from Adjutant Vaill’s ‘History of the Second Connecticut Volunteer Heavy Artillery.” eve Men fron rompany started out the first thing after reaching camp te look for our dead and w6unded, many ot whom lay not fifty rods off. Some of them able to grect their re- turning comrades, hear the news of vie- tory and send a last message to their friends before expiring. Corporal Charles M. Burr was shot above the ankle, both bones of his leg being shattered. In a few minutes a rebel battalion came directly over him and passed on out of sight. Then, being alone for a short time, he pulled off the boot from his sound leg, put his watch and money into it, and drew iton again. Next, a merciful rebel Lieutenant came and tied a handkerchief round his leg, stanching the blood. Next came the noble army of stragglers and bum- mers. “Hello, Yank, have you got any Yan- kee notions about you?” they asked, at the same time thrusting their hands into his pocket. They captured a lit- tle money and a few small traps, but, seeing that one boot was spoiled, they did, not meddle with the other. Then came ambulances, and picked up the rebel wounded, but left ours. Then came a citizen of the Confederacy, ask- ing many questions; and after him came three boys who gave our corporal water. Thus the day wore on until the mid- dle of the afternoon, when the tide of travel began to turn.
