LIEUT. SPRYE.

Head-Quarters, Choultry Plain, Jan. 6, 1834.-Extracts from the proceedings of an European General Court-Martial, holden at Masulipatam, on the 15th Oct. 1833; president, Lieut. Col. F. Bowes, 42d regt. N.I.

Lieut. Richard Samuel Mare Sprye, 9th N.I., late dep. judge advocate general, placed in arrest by order of the Comman der-in-chief, at the requisition of the Right Hon, the Governor in Council.

Charge. For scandalously infamous behaviour, unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman, in the following instances:

1st Instance In having, at Viziana gram, on the 23d May 1833, when officially employed as judge-advocate, in attendance upon a native special court-martial, then and there assembled under the provisions of a proclamation of martial law, endeavoured, by threats, to prevail upon Pasoomurty Seetaputty, vakeel of Palcondah, to give false evidence, contrary to his conscience and his belief, upon the impending trial of Pedda Juggiah, dancing girl and concubine of Venketputty Raze, late zemindar of Palcondah.

2d Instance.-In having, at the same place, on the 24th of the same month, when officially employed as above stated, in a letter bearing a corresponding date, and addressed to William Mason, Esq, collector and magistrate of Vizagapatam,

made use of the following expressions: "As to conviction, I still think I may safely calculate on it; but I shall obtain it on testimony such as, be assured, no English court will receive," thereby avowing his intention to obtain a capital conviction upon false and insufficient evidence, from the said native special courtmartial, before which the said Pedda Juggiah was, then and there, about to be arraigned on a charge affecting her life.

3d Instance. In having, at the same place, on the 25th of the same month, when officially employed in conducting the prosecution upon the trial of the said Pedda Juggiah, before the said courtmartial, and when permitted by the said court to examine in private Pasoomurty Seetaputty, vakeel, aforesaid, then and there a witness upon the trial of the said Pedda Juggiab, with the understanding and upon the pledge that if what he, Pasoomurty Seetaputty, said, proved of a nature to establish the falsity of the signature to certain letters brought in evidence against the prisoner, he, Lieut. Sprye, would call him before the court to repeat the same, broken the pledge so given to the court, inasmuch as the said Pasoomurty Seetaputty then and there declared to Lieut. Sprye "that the whole was a conspiracy and a forgery, and that if fair course of trial was pursued it would all be so discovered;" and he, Lieut. Sprye, notwithstanding, and without regard to the pledge given, informed the court that it was needless to communicate, and that he, Lieut. Sprye, was not bound to communicate to the court what Pasoomurty Seetaputty had said.

4th Instance.-In having, at the same place, on the same day, when officially employed in conducting the prosecution aforesaid, prolonged the sitting of the said court, upon the trial, after nine at night, although the sitting had extended from nine in the morning, with intent, in so doing, to the manifest denial of justice, to save, by means of the lateness of the hour, the remaining witnesses in support of the prosecution from the cross-exami nation to which the other witnesses for the prosecution had been subjected.

5th Instance.-In having, at the same place, on the 29th of the same month, when officially employed in conducting the prosecution aforesaid, endeavoured surreptitiously to obtain, through the president of the said court, Subadar Major Abdoolruhman, of the 8th regt. N.I., the opinions of the court on the case as it then stood, although the evidence on the defence had not been concluded.

6th Instance. In having, at the same place, on the 30th of the same month, when officially employed in conducting the prosecution aforesaid, tampered, to the manifest denial of justice, with the president

of the court, the said Subadar Major Abdoolruhman, in order to obtain a verdict of conviction against the prisoner Pedda Juggiah.

The above being in breach of the articles of war.

Finding. The court having most maturely weighed and considered the whole of the evidence adduced in support of the prosecution, as well as what the prisoner, Lieut. R. S. M. Sprye, 9th N. I., hath advanced in his defence, and the evidence in support thereof, is of opinion—

Finding on the 1st, 2d, 3d, 4th, 5th, and 6th instances of charge, that the pri soner is not guilty.

The court doth therefore most fully and most honourably acquit the prisoner of all and every part of the charge.

The court begs to remark, with reference to its finding on the 2d instance of charge, that although the writing of the letter alluded to is therein proved, yet, as it attaches no criminality whatever to the same, it has recorded a finding of not guilty thereon.

(Signed) F. BowES,

-

Lieut. Col. and President. Disapproved. The court, upon this trial, has obscured its better judgment, by admitting on the record and taking as evidence a mass of irrelevant matter, which has caused the proceedings to extend to a length probably unparallelled, by illegally receiving and recording a series of unproved and garbled writings, in great part extracted from a private diary, and by allowing the prisoner unjustifiably to attempt his own vindication by throwing odium upon the parties not before the court, thereby unjustly admitting the accused to become the accuser. Nothing can be more simple than Lieut. Sprye's case, divested of the collateral considerations with which, for sinister purposes, and through the culpable indulgence of the court, it has been mixed up. The narrative contained in the letters addressed by him to Brig. Gen. Taylor, upon which the charge was founded, cannot be misconstrued or mistaken; it exhibits a succession of illegal, premeditated, and underhand practices, employed with the deliberate purpose of obtaining conviction, upon a capital trial, against the consciences of the court. Either Lieut. Sprye has so acted from the very motives which in his letters he attributes to himself, and then he is guilty to the fullest extent of all that has been charged against him; or, otherwise, he must knowingly have misrepresented his own actions, under the flagitious belief that the government of Fort St. George could deliberately intend to take away life contrary to justice, and with the diabolical desire of recommending himself as the ready instrument of a government by him supposed so nefariously to intend. In either event, Lieut. Asiat. Journ.N.S. VOL.14. No.55.

Sprye is manifestly unworthy to continue to hold a commission in an honourable · service, and it will become my duty, in transmitting the proceedings to the home authorities, to bring the particulars of the case before them for their ultimate deci-. sion. Lieut. Sprye will be released from arrest, and forthwith proceed to such station as he may select south of Madras, there to reside pending the reference to the Court of Directors.
