# out hern Cf oufcdcracii GEO. W. ADAIR -...J. HENLT 8MITH, IDITOSM AID rUWBUTOa*. ATLANTA, GEORGIA: THURSDAY, AUGUST «, 1861. The Preliminary Fxasnluatlou of Johu and JancN H'IImhi, Charged with the Murder of Tliomav Terry. (CONTINUED ) Our report closed yesterday at the adjourn ment of the Court lor dinner, until two o'clock. The prisoners were remanded to jail. Be fore the hour for the re-assembling of the Court, the same anxious groups were gathered about the City Hall. We observed there the father of the bereaved Mrs Terry, who was an anxious spectator, with a heavy and almost broken heart. He very feelingly observed^ that if his son-in-law had been killed in bat tle, lighting for his country, it couli have been borne with a thousand times the fortitude; but for a good citixen—a harmless and inoffensive man—to be murdered by malicious and wick ed men without a cause, was more than hu man nature could well bear. We were in formed that Mr. Terry's mother is utterly pros trate Irom the deep affliction of this loss of her sou iu this horrid and inhuman manner. Many of Mr. Terry’s neighbors were present and deeply interested spectators. When the prisoners were brought in, they were accompanied by the female menbersof their families. One who appeared to be the wife of James, accompanied him to his place, and sat down between him and his father.— She seemed bowed down and overwhelmed with troublous grief. She soon, however, changed her position and took her seat with the other females of the Wilson family. The old mau Wilson, before coming into Court again, had changed his bloody shirt for a clean one - otherwise their appearance was unchang ed. Daniel McDuffie testified : I went with the Wilsons to the corner of Mr. Kennedy’s lot, wbeu John Wilson looked back and said, " Who's that ?” James Wilson replied, “ Ter ry,” aud both then went back. He knew no thing of any threats. Mr. Jerome Beers testified: Was coming from town on Saturday about 5 o’clock. I met Mr. Terry at Mr. Kennedy’s shoe shop. Old man Wilson and his son James came up a few moments afterwards, aad passed on sumo 20 or 25 yards. The next 1 saw of them they were back at Kennedy’s shop. One of them asked Kennedy if he had heard from h : s son. Mr. K. had just commenced to read the letter. When the letter was read, and Mr. Cowan was walking off, and when Mr. Terry was turning to mount his mule, old man Wil son asked Terry out in the road, saying he wauted a word with him. Terry at first did not seem inclined to go; but while standing by bis mule he took off his stirrup—don’t kuow how it was fastened on, but he seemed to take it off very easily. He then walked out in the road, aud I understood hiru to say ho wanted no fuss with him (Wilson) at all. There were a few words then passed, but I did not understand them. Old man Wilson struck at Terry first, but I don’t know wheth er he hit him or not. Mr. Terry struck with his stirrup. The iwo blows were almost at the same time, but Wilson's first. About the tune Terry struck, James Wilson struck him with a champagne bottle. Terry fell, aud the old man rushed on him while he was down, end struck him two or three times. I do not know if he had a stone in his hand, but he struck him with bit baud or fist. Mr. Kenne dy rushed out and took him off, and gave him to his sou James, who carried him away, but ho struggled and endeavored to get back at Terry all the while. The blow from the bottle struck Terry on the left side of the head a little above the ear. The bottle was full of liquor. Mr. Terry got up. I knew nothing of any previous difficulties. Dr. H. W. Brown testified: Found the pa tient about seven o’clock in the eutry of Mr Kennedy’s bouse ; found be bad a contusion over the right eye; It might have been by a man's fist, or some other hard, resisting body; it might have been a rock, though it was not & rough or angular body. One, also, with con siderable tumefaction, over the left ear, with slight injury to tho scalp, evidently produced by boiug driven against the fractured bone. The patient was suffering from what we call concussion of the brain, and we treated him to relieve that condition at once. So soon as the ayiuptoniH of coucusaiou disappeared, the evidencetof compression were distinctly man ifest. Proceeding then to escertsin the cause, wo examined the wouuds more carefully; opened the scalp freely over the wound on aide of head ; found extensive depression of a portion of bone, oval in shape, say 2| by 3} inches; tbe long diameter from before back ward ; used tbe trephine about 8 or 9 o'clock; elevated tbe depressed bone to ueerly its net ural position ; found extensive extravisatiou of blood under tbe bone or within the crani- urn, and arterial blood flowing freely; when the bone was elevated, or cotgula removed Iroin the opening, we saw from the location of the depressed bone, (being tbe squamous por tion of the Temporal, with the anterior and inferior portiou of the Parietal bones,) that the blood was issuing from the arteria in on in gea media, lacerated by the edge of the de pressed bone or epicula of same, and deter mined at once the cause of tbe compression now existing, to be the accumulating blood upon the brain from the above artery. We think such a wound would certainly result in death, and must have been produced by some bard body—round and smooth, perhaps—at all events, by some substance not edged or angular, (for reaaona specified.) We remained with the patient till about 11 o'olock P M., Saturday, and left the patient, stating to friends that we regarded his case n hopeless one, but left such directions, as to his manage meat; as we supposed would give him moat comfort, and aid any effort towards recovery. Dr. 8. 8. Beaoh went to see Mr. Terry with Dr. Brown end left with him. (His testimony was tbe same as Dr. Brown's in svsry respect.) Cross-JSetemined. Q. What is the effect of suob a wound upon the mind? SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY. A. I do not know that it would bsve serious ly Effected his mind at first. It in a bard mat ter to tell whether bis oiiud wss st once affect ed or not—though he was not in his right mind after I saw him. Dr. Joshua Oil hurt testified : I got to Mr. Terry about 6 o’clock, I suppose. When I first ssw him be was sitting in a chair against the palings on the side of tbe street. He look ed like feinting, which soon euded in a con- vulsion, and I thought he looked like be might die at once. I sent lor some brandy, and commenced cutting off his hair, when young Wilson cams up with rocks in his band, swearing be would have revenge on any man that would strike his father. I struck him and then caught him by the hair and threw him, put my foot on his neck, and told him to he still, or I would stamp all tbe meet off his face. We then got Terry on a maltrass. He suffered severely with a spasm. I aent for Dr. Brown and Dr. Beach. (Tbe remainder of 'his testimony wss similar to that of Dr. Brown and Dr. Beach.) Cross - Examined. When I arrived he did not seem to be iu his proper mind. From the character of the wound might have been iu his mind, as soon as he recovered from tho stun, and until com pression of the brain took place from tbe flow of blood. Tbe evidence on tbe part of tbe State here closed. Mr. Manning, attoroey f..r the prisoners, announced that they would introduce no tes timony, aud would submit the cise to the court without any remarks, when Mr. N. J. Hammond, 8tate's attorney, said he would also submit the case without any remarks. E6q. Thomas announced that the court had come to the conclusion that the prisoners were guilty of murder, and could not take bail. Tbe crowd gradually dispersed—each to hi 8 several home or occupation—though a few persons essayed to raise a force sufficient to lynch the the prisoners—declaring that they were remorseless murderers of a good man, and unworthy of the trouble and the expense tbe county would beat, in according them a trial. These persons, however, were quite few, and could not muator up a force to under take anything so imprudent and improper. Better counsels finally prevailed, and tbe crowd quietly dispersed. The indignation against them, however, is very great, and the whole community feels outraged. We earnestly entreat all persons to control their feelings, and let the law take its course. It is our only safety. When lawless ness takes control in one case—however much it may aim in securing justice—we know not how soon the fatal example may be imitated with far different objects in view. Let the law in its majesty still be a “ terror to evil doers, aud tbe praise of them that do well.” Our Special Correspondence. LFTTEU FROM DR. MEANS. VISITS RICHMOND—PROFESSIONAL LA HORS TREATMENT OF WOUNDED FEDERAL PRISONERS OOD BLESS TIIK WOMEN HORRORS OF WAR—A SLANDER REFUTED 8ACRILEOK AN!) ITS REWARD—THE FLOWER OF YANKEEDOM BLIOHTRD AND TIIE RADDLE NOW TO CONTEND WITH. Richmond, Virginia, July 29, 1861 Messrs. Adair dr Smith: (1 ents : After a sojourn of one busy and unx- loiis week at Manassas, I returned to tbis city on last afternoon, only that I might complete uiy outfit for camp-life in the surgeon’* depart ment. Dr. Colley ond Rev. Wm. II. Simmons arrived here safely several days since, but could rot make arrangements for leaving here until yesterday (Sunday) morning. I failed to see them—our respective trains hav ing passed on the way without nn opportunity for recognition. My labor on the battle Held has been arduous but profitable to my professional experience, from the vast number and variety of important surgical case* which have been thrown under my treatment, while I humbly trust ray services have been, at least in some degree, useful tomy country and to many a suffering soldier. I dress ed, while there, 200 Federal prisoners, (besides scores of our own) whose sufferings were heart rending. Some were brought In shot through the head; others through the nee*, arms and legs; some with thigh bones shattered, and the limbs hanging suspended by skin, muscle or lig ament. The miseries of many were intensified by the want ’of covering, food aud water for which they piteously begged. Scarcely a por tiou of the human body was exempt from the violence of some weapon of war. When I moved in the midst of such a melting scene, my Southern heart grew too large for the indulgence of liutred, aud I therefore dressed their wounds and nursed them in their suffer ings, as willingly ns though they had been our own dear people. I have been occasionally mortified at the cold hcartlessncss with which some who boosted a Southern birth, could ridicule and abuse these suffering creatures, before their faces, even when Death was about to perform his fntAl work. Wc have shipped 280 to the Hospital in this city, 350 to Culpepper Court House, aud some 400 to Charlottesville. Indeed, they arc scatter ed over the country far and wide. 8ome of the wounded Federal* are lodged In the costly and comfortable dwellings of th* rich ; others com mitted to the hospital, and hundreds more to the cheerless enclosures ot a prison. Too much praise cannot be bestowed upon the generous inhabitants of this Queen City of the Old Dominion. They have voluntarily offered to take to their private residences, as many os their rooms cau accommodate and their means comfortably sustain. Woman, lovely, sympa thizing woman—God bless her! Is ever ready, jrllh her heart In her hand, to relieve their suf ferings. The battle-field, when wc visited it, presented u horrifying spectnblc. Yet, this is the legiti mate fault of war, ond Liberty must be purchas ed even at this high premium, ns our enemies are not content that we should enjoy it at a less cost of human life. A request was made of Gen. Beauregard, by Gen. McDowell, that they might be permitted to bury their dead, which, notwithstanding slan derous rumors to tht contrary, was readily gran ted. Yet, In such hot haste was the task per formed, that, perhaps, two-thirds of their num ber were led upon the surface with a few spades fall of earth carelessly thrown over them.— Humbert were traced by the bloody track along which they hod crawled to the stream—Ball’s Run—where they had gone to seek water tnd died. The vandal barbarism aud blasphemy of some of the Federal troops are chsractsrixed by the following incident: While quartered but for one day In the little village of Centrevllle, they de stroyed a magnificent Episcopal Church, dese crated the altar with profuse Inscriptions, tore up the carpets from the stales, scattered the mutilated leaves of the Holy Bible to the four corners of the building, and wrote, In large let• trrs, Just over the pulpit, the following diabolic al seutence: “ Death to the d—d Rebels and Jeff. Davis. So snlth tbe Lord and Abe Lincoln.” Many scurrilous devices, obscene figures, vulgar caricatures, and profane denunciations, were scratched upon the walls of the gallery, and left ns melancholy moraorlols of the infernal spirit which actuated them. Many similar scenes were witnessed by the cUixcns of tho place, whose hands were motionless, and whose mouthB were closed, for they dared not resist. They have since, however, “ reaped the whirlwind” oa the fearful reward of their wickedness, and arc now at our feet pleading for mere}*—attributing their defeat to the Government at Washington. Mj>ny Colonels, Captains and privates—all, Indeed, with whom I have conversed, say that they had no idea there would be any fighting on our side, but now acknowledge that wc fought well, and desperately—more like demons than men—say ing that all tbe combined powers of the world could not subdue a people of such undying courage. Many of them had been forced to slay beyond the time for which they had volunteer ed, that having expired two or three days before the battle. One intelligent officer—a Lieutenant —told me that we had, hereafter, to contend with the rabble; that those whom we routed were mainly their picked inen—the very flower of the North, nud the Idols of old “ fuss, feath ers and foibles,” and bis royal cub—Old Abe. Manassas is now one wild waste. Farm hou ses stand deserted, the green orchards parched and beaten to tne earth by the trend of horses and men. Surely, never in modern days, has there been such a complete rout of confident, vainglorious hosts. Even Napoleon, in his great campaign of 1814, could claim no such glorious victory as that over which we now rejoice.— Heaven will yet continue to smile upon us, and crown our efforts with Independence. T. A. MEANS. From the Auguets Chronicle. The Express Company. We noticed in the Columbus Sun, of Friday, a communicated article, condemnatory of the Express Company for charging freight on packages sent to the soldiers Similar articles have recently appeared iu several of our in terior exchanges, both as editornl and com municated. The writers of these articles are surely not aware of the amount of gratuitous labor and service performed by the Express Company far our soldiers since they have been called to the field—at tbe same time, too, that its stockholders and officers have been no ways backward in contributing of their private means on all occasions. The express Compauy did, at first, when only a few hun dreds or thousands of soldiers were called out, delivered packages free cf charge, but the business soon became too heavy. The railroad companies are entitled to and receive their rates for frieight carried by the Express, and it would be as reasonable to expect the cloth mills to furnish their good* without charge, and merchants of all classic to furn ish gratuitously everything in their stores, as to demand of the Express ihnt they should pay the railroads, and tbe salaries of messen gers and officers out of pure patriotism. If the carriage of the goods cost them nothing, we have no hesitancy in saying that they would cheerfully devote their care and ruen lion to the speedy and safe delivery of all packages for soldiers entrusted to their care, without charge. All the officers and managers of the Express Company with whom we have any intercourse evidence, in many ways, as much interest in the propriety of the cause which we have much at heart as any class of our citizens WAR DEPARTMENT, ] Adjutant Gxhebal’s Orricr. \ Washington, July 10, 1861. j General Ordkbr, No. 40 : 1.

The placid heaven this night look* down, Upon Manassas’ field, Where lie the soldiers coldly still, Our prayers were vain to shield. Celestial hosts keep silent watch, Above the honored dead ; And moon und stars have lent light, To glorily their bed. Forever green their memories be, Who warm’d with Instincts high, True to man's noblest destiny, This day have dared to die. While victory’s exulting shout, Upon the breeze Is borne, The monotone of woe is heard, Bereaved RncbncPs mourn. Au aged Jacob *tls that weeps, A Benjamin Is not; Or worse, some tender father now, Bewails a C'omah’s lot. Each heavy head, death laid so low, Some mother’s bosom press’d, And on those dummy, up turn’d brows, Her prayerful blessings rest. The stalwart arm that death unnerved, Perhaps were some wife’s stay, And she will breathe his name to-night. When e’er she kneels to pray. Children, orphaned since the morn, Call now a father’s name, Who dying there bequeath’d to them An heritage of fame. God bless the mothers here at home, God shield our soldiers there, And give us peace—a woman’s—yet An honest patriot’s prayer. Mass Commercial aud Financial Conven tion. To the Meichauis, Bankers aud otters* of the Confederate States of America : There are two great otjecis which we de sire as the result of the momentous struggle which is now pending. One is Political, the other is Commercial and Fiuuncial. Tbs first has been thoroughly organized and under the direction of the ablest minds in Confederacy, and with the bleating of God, appears to be rapidly progressing to a satis factory conclusion. The second, and in our estimation tbe greatest und important, baa not as ywt, an organization, and is in) great dan ger of being lost by the success of the first —before any well digested plans have teen adopted for its attainment. We feel it to be our duty, tbereiore, to our selves and our country, to seek loawakeu the public miud to the incalculable importance of seeing to it, that our forces are promptly mus tered and well equipped for tbe coming strug gle, our plans thoroughly discussed and well matured, that by | rompl und combined action when the movement shall be made, we shall ensure entire success end become as we seek to be. not only politically, but commercially aud financially free and indepennent. Have we not the skill aud energy in our Confederacy which is needful to conduct our commercial and fioaoci il affairs a* well abroad as at home ? If not, we fear we must be con tent as heretofore, to allow them to remain \he hands of, and be conducted by others. Shall the profith arising from our immense trade with Foreign countries continue to flow into the bands of those who are inimical to our peace and welfare, or shall the benefili arising therefrom be retrained b us andtraus mined as a rich legacy to our children ? A mighty aud systematic effort has been made by Merchants and Bankers at the North to transfer to, and engross almost the entire profits of Southern trade in their own hands. Our institutions have been decried to tbe world in the hope that by this means they might drive from us the sympathies of otl.er commercial nations, and obstruct, if not whol lj preveut direct intercourse between us aud them. With these facts before us, is it not time we should awaken to the vital importance of in slant, wise and decided action upon this sub ject ? One of tbe greatest obstacles in the way of the establishment of direct trade with foreign countries—immediately upon the opening of the ports of our Confederacy—is the fact that our Merchants are comparatively unknown in foreign markets, and have no credit establish ed there. Although, the ptoducte of the South ern States have constituted (he basis of credits and exchange between the late United States and these nations for more than a half cenlu* ry ; in a financial and commercial sense, we are unknown to each other—our bills of ex change having been drawn by Northern Hou ses, and tbe vast amount of their productions consumed by us—imported through the same ehaonel—so little have we been known in these transac'ions, that years would be requir ed in tbs otdinary course of events, io build up that trade and establish that confidence which is absolutely necessary in commercial transactions, which are founded on a system of credits. It is clear, therefore, that some extraordina ry measure must be devised, to enable us to free ourselves from these impediments to our commercial credit and independence, and pre vent our falling back into the old channel as soon as our ports ere again open. It is more over, desirable than our products, other than our greet staple, should be fully make known to the world, and the great advantage to fore ign nations of a direct trade with us, and we should all unite our efforts in the promotion of this great work. We, therefore, cordially invite the Mer chants, Bankers and others of the Confeder ale States, to meet us in Mass Convention, in the City of Macon, on the 14tb day of Octo ber next, for the purpose of devisiug some plan for establishing a system of credits be tween the Confederate States of America and Foreign countries, which may be practicable and available to all desiriug to use it, and which will also command tbe hearty support of the citixens of our whole country. Wa earnestly invite tbe assistance and co operation of the press of the Confederate States, in bringing the subject fully before tbe people and tbe presence of its members on the ocoaeion named. We would also, respectfully suggests to the various Chambers of Commerce and other Societies within the Confederaey, organised for similar purposes—the propriety of a[ pointing Committees at an early day for the purpose of a due and deliberate investigation of ibis important subjeot, and proposing some plan to be submitted to the Convention at its meeting.
