i The Court met at West Point on the
20th October, and out of a long string ol
charges and specifications, Capt P. was

P two specifications—and two other speci

f nature. These were disobedience of or-;

Point, oft the St-th August, 1817, in dis
) obedience of the orders ami instructions
f, of Brig, Gen. Swift, given in pursuance
r of the directions of the -Pcesideijfof the
United States; and in issuing orders con
l trary thereto. Upon these charges he
,i was convicted by live Court, and senten- :!
ced to be cashiered. In consideration,
, however, of rthe important professional
1 services rendered by tae prisoner, previ
ous to the period which originated his
i ti ial, the Court recommended him to the (
, clemency of the President of the United,
