Georgia Republican & State Intelligencer. Six Dollars a Year, Ha 1 / in Advance. GEORGIA REPUBLICAN, Volume I. No. n. ??L SW 1 r T *oi m w*mrr*w* DIVISION ORDERS, Savannah, October 25, 1802. The Court Martial, of which Major Shad was Prcfident, ordered for the trial of Lieu tenant Suck ho ufc, on the charges exhibited agair.H him by Lt. Col. Mitchell, having found him guilty of thefirH, third, and fourth charges— to wit : *^ r * 1 (1. For unofEcerlike conduct on the eve r. nr: of the 29th of September Eli, whiifi on’ outv, n breaking open, and taking poficfiion by military force, of the houle of Mr. Isom Clay, on Tybee I (land. 3d, For disobedience of orders and on offi ce] like conduft, in leaving his p.jit from me 1 orning of the 30 th of dtp tern her until hm detachment was relieved. 4th. For difobeditnee of orders and unoffi cial ike conducl, on the eleventh inHant, in not delivering up his iword when arreficd.” And thereon having sentence ! him to re ceive a reprimand from the Major-General, iukl to pay a ium of one hundred and eighty didais, being equal to fix months pay when in aft.utl lervice—the M ijor-General con firms the fen ten ce and dtfiblves the court. vVhiift however, the Major-General is in duced to confirm the sentence, he is impelled to remark that it has been mere indulgent m.iii Lieutenant ♦Stackhoufe had a right to expert. The Lieutenant was sent to the fic tion at Cockfptir, ro protest the citizens and their property —not to violate their rights and break open their houses. He was in actual f'ervice —the country in a date of alarm, no; .only In s*} in: r along the whole loutiiein roalt of the United States* Invasion and in furreftien were expefted, against either of which the Hate had a right to prated herfelf u:ml the arm of the Union could be extended ro her iupporc. In i'uch a situation as this mr an o metr to leave his poll - tne post oi 1 iONOR as regarded himfelf, and of TRUST NS it reipefted his country —vv. ; s unpardona ble. It affeded his commifxlon, if the oi the law had been pursued—is not his file. Again, as it refpeds the fourth charge. The refufal of his sword to the order of tht dolonel, is a gross v iolation of all military J'de—the commiiTon is the authority mdr; which the officer has a light to wear the iword as such —and the Iword is the security or bail to the Hate, that the officer will faithfully perform the trufc reposed in him—if the prin cipal fails the feeur’ty becomes liable, and the Jv..iu mult be from the officer charsied with violating iiis contrasts. I3;;t the idea of r.n officer’s fvvord being private property after he receives his com niiilion is a mutaken one—the conn million is an exchange for its value—lt belongs folelv to his country as refpefts its use vvhilft he holds his commiifion, and may legally and fin oil be demanded hereafter on all occasions of arretl, in the firft division, and the officer refilling Hiall be punished if a Court Martial will order it—or be confined if the arrelling cfitcer requires it. is hoped tliatjthe leniency of the fenter.ee in the case of Lieut. Stackhoufe will never bt relied on by any officer on any future occasion. Lieutenant Stackhoufe Hands highly culpable in the Major-General's view, and is hcreb) severely reprimanded, with a hope that u will be a warning to him in his future milita ry walks. 1 he Lieutenant will pay into the hand* efthe proper officer of rhe Chatham Re.ei ment, the fine of one hundred and eighty dol lars—being the fc.rtence of the court, within one month from the dare of this order, and Hand arreHed until the fame is discharged— r.o resignation will be accepted—and if the fame be not paid in one month, the com. manding officer of the Chatham Regiment will ifiue his warrant to levy the fame. This order will be publiihed in or.e of the Gazettes of this city, for the information of the o fficers of the Firil Division.
