Thu following is 11 copy of the paper presented by Com.

Elliott states thnt this general form el* enquiry is not in ac cordance with precedent or uutliority; but he dis tinctly waives the objection lljoretu, and desires that every ground of complaint may ho fully inquired into. In order however, toprepare for his defence^ lie requests 4 specification of tin* charges nial complaints intended to be exhibited uial preferred against him, major tho general cnoso above quoted, as wpll as the nipqcs of the licensors (if any) und of the witnes ses intended to bo resiwctivoly oxantined ujkwi said cliarges.” When the pajior was presented the Judge Advo- cate stated that he could not give any specification of tho charges. Tlpit it wus a general enquiry into the official conduct of Com. Elliott, und tliut every ground of complaint must be enquired into, as it should lie elicited from tho witnesses in the course of examination. The Court then said that if the Judge Advocate would comply with tho request of Com. Elliott, it wouid be u grout conveiiicnCo to all concerned, mid promote economy of liotli time and expense; but as the Judge Advooutocould not,front the iiatqro of the inquiiv, comply with the request, the Court would give Com.

Elliott fear ing that the nature of the paper might he misunder stood if hut u part of it were published, declined, aud ut the suggestion of the Court, with the con currence of the J uclgc Advoca’te, the whole paper was withdrawn. So far is this clinrg^ frotq being well founded, Com. Elliott wished Ins whole life to he enquired into, and hiul in attendance upon the Court, witnes ses summoned at his request to give testimony rv- lativcto the affiiir of Lake Erin, ‘which tho Court discharged on the ground that ull matter was pre cluded .which was not distinctly referred to in the order of tlic,Dcpnrtmcnt convening llie Court.
