in the sixteenth Illinois cavalry, and was a
Prisoner at Andensonville from the Bth of March
until September, 1804. De thought that Capt.
Wire assumed command about the Drat of
April. On one occasion Wirz came into the
stockade, whet. cripple walking on crutches
approached and asked to go out side. The re.
quest was refined, and the cripple sale he would
rattier be shot than stay there. , The witness
soon heard Whet hallo to the sentinel to tell
that man if he did not go back he would shoot
him. The man did not return, when the senti
nel sired and shot nim Cu the Jaw. The cripple
was known by the name of (lament°. Wlrz
afterwards instrueted. the aentlnel to shoot the
other men If they did not go - away. On anoth
er occasion when the prisoners were being di
vided Into squads of hundreds, one of the men
owlttg to sickness', fall in. Wire threat
ened to shoot him, and did shoot at him. The
hell went thmer, the man's hat. The priso
ners were kept the sun "all day, and were not
allowed to procure water, If they could not
give a setiefactory account of any one of their
number missing, they were deprived of their
rations. This saes the case for three days early
in July. There was not sufficient room In the
prison—seareely enough for the men to stand
open. The limits were enlarged on the north
side. There were fifty-tWo:thonthild prisoners
there at one time. Ha hed heard Win say he
was killing moreTankeett then. those who were
serving in the front:. : Witness had seen twenty

Of them?" Ans. "There were troublesome
characteth there, butTdon't know whether that
man belonged to thenisor not. I don't think that
cripple on a crutch was a good man to ateal."
(laughter.) During a farther examination, the
whims spoke of a man at whom the sentinel
fired.
Q. "Did you sea the ball hit Mm ?" A. "A
man must have very Rood eves to see a ball
when It strikes a matt." (Laughter.)
The witness gave various Instances of men
being shot. Ono was shot while he was In his
tent for merely stretching his arm beyond the
dead line. Another was shot sitar treadingover
the line. Be heard Captain Wks order the sen
tinel to shoot the cripple, KIWI of those shot
at were killed and cabers were taken to the
hospital.

He bad seen four or five bandied boxes it

watch dogs and bull terriers. One of the dogs
badly tore the flesh (roma man'e leg. Another

man bad reached beyond the dead line for some
crumbs of bread, when he was shot la the head.
Wire ehot a man a short tires after he assumed
command of the prison. The latter was sick,
lying on the ground and asked Wire something,
when Wirz shot him. Wire remarked that he
he was killing more Yankees then than Lee dise
was at Richmood. This was said In Avast.
WL-z was at the time with the witness In
the grave yard, in the wagon' with the
dead men. The whams bad mu men starred
to death, Food was so scarce at one time that
"Whet them Pirked TIP Particles of food that
had already pmmed theongb the system.

fied as to the signatures Of Oen. Wtader and
Captain Wire to a consolidated return Mr An
gust lath which was exhibited to them.
Major Hosmer, associate Judge Advocate was
sworn, and Malted that be obtained tho paper
from the chief, having custody of the rebel pa
pers at the War Department. The paper was In
evidence and is as follows:
Consolidated returns for the Confederate
States military prison, Camp Sumter Georgia,
for the month of August, 131344 Prisoners on
hand on the list of August, 1 8 / 3 4—10 camp, 29,-
985; in hospital, 1,694 total, 81,673; received
from various places during August, 3,078; recap
tured, 4; total, 3,082; making in the aggregate
34,760. Died oaring the'month of August, 9,-
993; sent to other prisons, 23; exchanged, 21;
escaped, 30, making 3,061, of all of which there
were on the Slat of August. in camp 29,473; in
hospital, 3,9.?43; total, 81 693. The same com
plaint has to be made against the carelessness
and inefficiency of the guard. Of the thirty
misonera who escaped, eleven of them did 60
while on their parole of honor not to escape
as long as they-were employed to work outside.
•Thebalactee,xlineteen, escaped some In bribing
the sentinels with greenbacks; some by {imply
walking off from the guards, while returning
from the place where the toots are deposited at
night that were used on the stockade in theday
time. Perhapetwenty.five more escaped during
the month, but they were taken up by the dogs
before the daily return was made out, and for
that mean they are not la the list of escaped
nor rteentered. That may four were retaptar•
cd,ls owing to the fact that neither the guard
nor the officers of the guard reported a man es
caped.. The roll call In the morning would show
a man missing, 1ng.16 *bald be too far gone to
be tracked. As we have nO general court.mar-
Sal here, all such offenses go tutpunished, or
nearly so.

Thomas Hall testified that he belonged to the
marine corps and was a prisoner at Anderson
villa. He had charge of a squad of ninety pris-
Onefll, but only one out of the L entlre number
survived. They gave him another squad from
the new stock. The men, died - off rapidly. A
good many sank down from exhaustion bad star
vation and could not get up. Capt.' lairs threat-
ened that if they did cot rise be would blow the
hildne mat of the 13—d Yankees. Will
threatened to fire grape and canister into them.
Hs bad seen a man'a log that 'had alcaciat been
• tant off by.one of the, hounds. The men were
vaccinated In their arms, and soon thereafter
sonsisppeared as large to deliver half dollar and
were filled with maggots.. He heard a sentinel
remark alter 'hooting a mast, "I'll have a far
!crap lot that, and II I thought I would gm a
taring tar slaty Ors I. would shoot another."
Dr. William Balser testified that he had acted
In the United Btates army as' aulatent Burgeon.
When at Jacksonville he attended a large num
ber of the -uses 'from Andsreonville, and des.
cubed the horrible condition of the sufferers.
The larger portion of them Were mere skeletene.

Wires defense " More than a month ago, U.
H. Emerson, Banff of the Military Commiesion
brPoloted for the trial of Wire, was ordered by
Quitman, J edge Advocate, to shit the
prisoner's cell and obtain from him a fall list of
such witnesses as he desired to have summoned.
Wirt tarnished the names of thirty-three wit

"These are all the witnesses I desire in the case.
"H. Wino, Capt. & Adj. C. 8. A,"
Mr. Emerson, on presenting the list at the
War Department was ordered by Secretary
Stanton to proceed at once to the South, and
sub retie every person whose testimony was de
sired by the prisoner. That, contrary to the
custom in such cases, it was not required of the
prisoner to state the character of the testimony

The Atlantic Cable
New roar, Aug. 80.—The correspondent of
the London nerdy Nig., writing from the Great
Eastern, says Authorities on the eleetric tele
graph concur in Baying that Lhe record of the
undertaking , as furnished by the telegrams is of
a decidedly encouraging character, The chief
danger is delay. The ocean buoy loft to mark
the spot will probably be found, tt It etiE ex
ists, without much difficulty.
It must be remembered that In the event of
rough weather, the Atlantic waves would dash
about and upon It with such violence alto-mao
the chances of a mere buoy, howavoi - ntrolgi
weathering the storm, extremely, doubtful
Another danger is that the cable May Blek.deep
er and deeper into the oozy bottom of the sea,
until the grappling and hauling in will be Im
possible.
It will be remembarod that on the 10th when
the thud attempt at raising It was made, the
grapnel and 8,800 yards of rope come up cover
ed with tide slimy doze, a erullicient proof that
the cable, if recovered at all, must be recovered
quickly. I f the three ecanpanles hilested,name
ly: the Atlantic Company, Telegraph Construc
tion Company, and Great Eastern fiteariship
Company. can agree as to the terms on which the
undertaking Is to be resumed, it In quite posal
ble the great ship may call again lira few weeks.
Assuming the recovery of the cable, the far
ocean end of which Is now lying quietly in the
Atlantic, no additional manufacture will be
necessary. Boma neater ropes and far more
strongly riyetted grapnels, and the tireat East
ern is equipped for the task. 83 far as the re
covery is concerned, the least tangerine people
admit her to have labored splendidly from the
moment of her leaving Nore until now, and It is
not too much to nay that her reputation as a sea
worthy, and above all, as a manageable vessel,
stands higher than It has for yearn. Those
again who are directly Interested In the mane.
facture of the cable. have reason to be satisfied
wlth Its recent trials.

In this region be Enda fifty whites to one color

One dollar gold Nice'. I paid him fifteen, dol
lars In paper for them, and have some of the
money yet—probably eight pelces. The other
two peices ll gave to 4raMer & BAWD. Mr.
Grinder said that the gold had been sent as a
present to his wife by aome friend in the west.
He did not tell me who sent it, or bowet came—
whether by mall, express, or 'by private hand.
I think Grinder had time to go home and come
back from the time he left until he returned and
told me 1 could have the ' gold. Gold was
then selling at over one dollar and sixty cents,
and I knew I was getting It below the selling
Price. The gold was of two kinds of coinage—
toy recollection is that four of were of the
large thin issue andiix of the thicker and small

each, but am certain there were two kinds.-

officer did not Inform him In regard to

marking that the °dicer might have postponed
his visit until morning, and not Interfered with
his night's rest. He VW Mal in the lockup last
night. It will be observed, from the testimony,
that the main fact against Grinder was

been In the pcesesakm of lidaao. Buchanan at or
shortly before the taunter her death. He ad
