Derail of Atha Atrocities SHAMEFUL CONDUCT OF UNION OFFICERS. Wants Cairn, May s.—The following is an extract from the reporSsef the Committee on. the Conduct of the War: Although your Committee were Instructed to Inquire only in reference to the attack, cap ture and massaereat Fort Pillow, they have deemed it proper to take some testimony In reference to theorizations of Forrest and his command immediately preceding and subse qment to that horrible transaction. It will appear from the testimony thin taken that the atrocities committed at Fort Pillow wore not the result of passion, excited by the heat of eonfilet, but were the resalts of a policy deliberately decided upon and unhesitatingly announced. Even it the uncertainty of the fete of those officers and men belonging to the colored regiments, who have ticreto fore been taken by tree rebels, has felled to convince the authorities of One Golollllllent of this fact, the testimony herewith eubmit. led must convince even the most ekeptie that it is the intention of the rebel authorities not to recognize the officers and men of our col— ored regiments, as entitled to the treatment.' awarded by all civilised nations .to prisoners of war. The deelaratien of Forrest and his °Mum, both before and after the capture of Fort Pillow, ise teetited to by such of our mew as have escaped after .being taken by ; him ; the threats contained In the various demands for surrender made at Padnealt,.l Columbus and other places; the renewal of the massacre on the morning after the capture of Fort ; the statements made by rebel °Moen to the officers of tee gunboats whe re ceived the few survivors at Fort Pillow; ail go to show conclusively the pulley they have determined on. It was at Fort Pillow that the brutality and cruelty of the rebel was most fearfully exhibited. The Committee then detail at length the taking of the fort, and then proceed to lay there followed a scene of cruelty and murder, without parallel in civilized warfare, which needs but the tomahawk and scalping knife to exceed the worst atrocities ever committed by savages. The rebels commenced an indiscriminate daughter, eparing neither &goner sex, white, black, soldier or civilian. Officers and men seemed to vie with each other to the devilish work. Men, women end children, wherever found were deliberately chit do beaten and hacked with sabres. Sone of the :children not ten years old wan forced to stand up and face their murdered parents while Ming shot. The sick and wounded were batehared without mercy, the rebels even tearing down hospital buildings and dragging them oat to ho the:, or killing them as they lay there lin able to offer the least resistance. All over the hill-eido the work at mender was going on. Numbers of our men anew onlieetedtogetlier in Head ',tor groups and deliberately shot.. Some were Chid whits in the river, while others on the bank were shot and their bodies kicked into the water, many of them still riving, but unable to make exertions to sees themselves from drowning. Some of the rebate stood upon the top of the bill, or a short distance from its sides, and . called on our soldiers to ; come op to t h em and as they approached shot them down in -cold blood; and if gnus or pistols happened to miss firo,tbey were ordered to stand until they wore avian prepired to fire. All around were heard cries of "No quarter "Kill the d—d nigger) I' "Shoot them down I" All who noted for mercy were answered by the mast cruel taunts and enema. Some were spared for a time, only to be murdered under , cll , cumetences of greater barbarity. No cruelty which the most fiendish malice could devise was omitted by these murderers. One white soldior who wee wounded in the leg so as to be unable to stead, was made to Stand up while his tormentors shiot him ; others who were wounded and tine. hie to stand, were held up again and shot ; one negro who had-been ordered by a rebel wirer to hold hie horse was killed by him when he remounted. Another, a mere child, whom an otter had taken up behind Dim on his horse, . was seen by Chalmers, who at once ordered him to pat him down and shoot him which was done. The hate and tents in which many of the wounded had sought shelter were sot on fire, both than:tight and the next forenoon ' while the wound ed wore still in them, those only escaping who were able to get themselves oat, or who oould prevail on others less injured to help them out, and even some of these, thus seek ing to escape the Seines, were met by these ral.lllll and shot down, or had their breins beaten out. One min was deliberately fas tenedliown to the door of a tent, (face up-• wards,) by means of nails driven through his clothing and into the boards under him, so that he could not nonibly escape , and hen the tont set on fire. Another was nailed to the side oft building, outside of the fort, and then the bonding sot on fire and burned. The; charred remains of fore or Mx bodies were af • twinede found, all but one so much indigo/ad atid consumed by the flames that they could not be identified, sad the identification of that one is not absolutely certain, although thero can hardly be a mistake that It, was ins body of Lieut. Albertson, quartermaster of the 13th Vs. cavalry, and a native of Tana. Those deeds of murder and cruelty cloied,e hen nigh , carne on, only -to be renewed the next morning, when -the demons carefully sought among the amid lying about to all &recline for any other woanded, yet alive, and those they found were deliberately abut. Scores of the dead ware found there pa 'he day of the massacre by the men from some of our gun boats *m were permitted to go anhcre -and :Hove the wounded and boxy the dead. The rebels themselves had made a protein • of burying a stoat many at their victims, but had uter,oly thrown them intottio trenches end ditcher! about -the fort, or the little hollows and ravines on the hillside, tioverlog them partially with earth. Poidova of heads and faces, and hands and feet, were found protruding in every direction, and even when your committee visited the spoti two weeks afterwards, although parties of men Dad been sent out from time to time to bury the bodies unburied and re bury the others, and even then lO .gaged in the -' Milne work, wo impact the evidence of • 'their murder. *ad cruelty into; painfully dlitinot.
