The prisoner was secured and
when it was told to us that he
had killed Captain Muntford
simply for dancing with a young
lady that had refused to dance
with him, we concluded that he
was the.despcrado that we believ
ed him to be from the first time
we saw him. In his trial, which

turned out that he was a Feder
al spy that had beeii stationed
at Richriiond during almost the

with the crime of an atrocious
murder, made the death sen

Christmas on the Salts
The reader has already been,
favored or tortured with some
of our experiences on the coast
of Florida during the “dark
days that tried men’s souls;”
still, au indulgent, public will,
we are sure, give us their atten
tion while we'.tell them about
our Christmas of 1864. ’
When Sherman marched
through Georgia, leaving deso
lation and sorrow in his wake,
the news was carried* to the
salt works that, the war was
over. Those who had foiled
without a murmur with the
hope that the’ works of their
hands would aid in the stuggle
for liberty felt that all tvas “lost.
The negroes, iu a crowd, loft
the white men and boys to rrin
the salt of West Goose : Creofe,
while with a song, and a rush
they marched . away to wait
“Till dfi Linkun guubotes crim.”
One, a bright mulatto, seized
the only boat, we had, and tell
ing a negro whom "ho left be
hind, that he, would sound h;s
bugle in case, of a safe arrival
at the blockading vessel, pulled
out in .defiance- to' Orders, for
“freedum and *do‘ yankee,”—
Sure enough, it is said, the
sound'of a bugle came floating
-ooesUhs-i and this was
another signal for the negroes
who remained to ubandon their
white friends) which was done
as we have stated.
The white meu, arid a few
trusty negroes were left to take
care of tho works, and as opera
tions had been suspended, De-
'Om home, cember 2dtb;’1864, found the
facing danger and jdeath, and writer chief garrison of Ridley’s
