CHRONICLE & SENTINEL.
To the Public.
At the request ot a number ot the officers of
my own command, as well as at the suggestion
of several gentlemen not connected with it, 1
have determined to give to the public in Geor
gia, over my own signature, a brief statement
ol rhe difficulties in which a small portion ot
my Regiment was concerned,on the night ot the
31st ol August last. It is the great mistorlune
us those attached to the Georgia Regiment that,
at this remote point from our own Stale, the pa
pers containing the most singularly exaggerated
accounts of this a flair, though bearing date
near two months back, have just come to hand,
leaving us to apprehend that it is now too late
to remove the prejudices which the glaring
falsehoods they contain are so well calculated
to engender. In companionship with both the
officers and privates ot my command, I feel
with painful emotion that for the cruel appre
hensions and distressing mortification suffered
by our families, friends, and all interested in
our personal character and welfare, there can
be rid redress—that] the poison had surely com
pleted its work before the antidote could possi
bly have been applied. Deeply is it to be la
mented that not only the chatacters of brave
men, but in this case, the peace of mothers,
tiives and sisters should have been at the mercy
ot a few letter writers, prepared to catch every
Hying or floating rumor that might serve to feed
a morbid public appetite. In premising thus
far, 1 am convinced, from the remarks which
1 see in the columns ot the Georgia press, based
upon the accounts to which 1 refer, and from
innumerable private letters received by mem
bers of my Regiment, from suffering, agitated,
mortified friends, that I do not say too much.
The following isa brief detail of thedifficulty
which made its appearance in the papers un
der the various captions of “Riot among the
Georgia Volunteers”—“Disgraceful riot in the
Georgia Regiment”—“Terrible riot and loss ot
lite,” etc. etc. etc. Alihough not present upon
the occasion ot its occurrence, I havedrawn my
facts from a close, scrutinixing investigation of
the transaction lor myself, and from the evi
dence given in before the Court Martial, in the
case of Capt. McMahon. It is needless to say
that I stand responsible for their truth :
Two or three days previous to the affair, I
had left the camp near Burita with the second
detachment of my Regiment, (consisting of
four companies and the sick of my whole com
mand,) for Matamoros and Camargo. Two
companies had preceded me, and I felt it my
duty to be with the larger portion of my Regi
ment. Four companies ot the second battalion
remained near Burita, under the command of
Lieut. Col. Redd—Major Williams having
been despached to Head quarters some time
previous, and not yet having returned. Among
the companies left were two.known as the “Jas
per Greens,” from Savannah, and the “Kene
saw Rangers,” from Cobb county.
On the evening of the 31st ot August the
steamer. (Corvette) which was to carry this
remnant ot the Georgia Regiment to Camargo,
arrived from the mouth of the river and pro
ceeded to receive her Ireight and passengers.—
Those who are at all familiar with the move
ments of bodies or soldiery, either from camp
or garrison, whether they be regulars or volun
teers, must be aware of the fact that they are
seasons ol excitement, confusion, and not unfre
quently of disorder. In this instance, some five
or six men belonging to the companies already
named, having been supplied (contrary to ex
plicit orders) with ardent spirits, by the sutler of
another Regiment, became turbulent and unruly.
A fight ensued between some two or three of
them, about some cause too trivial and child
ish to be mentioned. From a close examina
tion ot reliable persons, 1 cannot discover that
more in number were actively engaged in the
rencounter. Still they were attached to different
corps, and thus the misstatement has originated
that two companies of the Georgia Regiment
were engaged in a bloody conflict. The officers
of these companies promptly and effectual ly In
terfered to quell the affray. Capt. Nelson form
ing his men upon lheshore, and Capt. McMa
hon assembling his on the hurricane deck of
the boat, so as to be able to single out the dis
orderly persons,and forthwith place them under
arrest. Up to this time no “arms"had been
used—no “life” had been “lost,” and yet this
boy's conflict had already been suppressed, and
all of the two companies named, who were pre
sent upon the spot, had been formed under their
res, ittive commanders. Had the affair been
allowed to slop at this point, the offenders might
have been reported to me and would certainly
have received the punishment they richly,dserv
ed ; but the letter writers would have been de
prived of a most delectable budget of scandal,
the public of a deeply exciting newspaper col
umn, our friends in Georgia would have been
saved from the distress which must have been
occasioned by the tissuesof exaggeration which
made their appearance under the alarming cap
tions relered to above, and we, the officers and
privates of the Georgia Regiment, from the
deep shame and keen mortification of feeling
that a stain had been placed upon our charac
ters, wholly unprovoked and undeserved, while
we were anxiously dischargingour duty to our
country, and deeply solicitous to protect the
honorable name of the State we represent, ft
was unt rtunately, however, a't this moment
that Col Baker interfered, doubtless with the
best of motives.
The following are extracts from the testimony
in the case already refered to, and will give the
facts of his approach, and of the rencounter
between his detachment and the “Greens,” as
hey occured:
Lieut. Col. Redd testifies—“l saw a party of
troops coming who were commanded by an of
ficer that I did not then know, but who after
wards turned out to be Col. Baker, with a de
tachment of Illinois troops. I asked them who
they were. They said they had come there to
stop the riot.” Having gone with the assent of
Col. Redd, upon the hurricane deck, the same
officer testifies, that “Col Baker” ordered the
accused (Capt. McMahon) to "surrender,” or
“retire,” Ido not recollect which. He ref used
to do so, but immediately engaged Col. Baker
with his sword. One ot the Colonel's men re
marked that he could not contend with that man
(meaning the accused) and pulled him back
at the same time the Colonel received a wound
and was compelled to retire.” Being further
questioned, the Colonel testified, that he had
put Capt. McMahon on duty, by “ordering him
to keep his company quiet.” and that he does
not believe the accused could have discovered
Col. Baker’s rank.
Capt. Nelson testifies as follows—" I was
ashore when a body ol troops, commanded by
some person then unknown to me, but whom I
afterwards learned to be Col. Baker, and a de
tachment of Illinois volunteers, approached.—
They made a halt for a moment. I heard seve
ral voices cry out, "Lead us!" They imme
diately went up the staircase. When they had
arrived on the upper deck, some one in the de
tachment] cried out “ surrender I" About the
same titxxe Capt. McMahon, who had previously
been engaged inquieting Ms men, stepped for
ward to Col. Baker and said, “damn yon,
cross swords with me,” or words to that effect;
whereupon they immediately crossed swords
and commenued parrying and thrusting, and
continued until Col. Baker gave back, at which
time Capt. McMahon was borne down. At the
same time some one ot the Illinois troops cried
“Charge!”—“Damn him, run your bayonets
through him I” Being further interrogated, he
says that al the time he (the witness) “ reached
the deck, he saw Col. Baker between the head
of the stairs and the right hand boiler, and Cnpt.
McMahon was driving his men to the opposite
side of the boat.
Capt. Sargent testifies, that at the inception ot
the difficulty “ the accused and myselt were
supping on board the steamer Corvette. The
accused, as soon as he heard it, rushed out to
suppress it.” He says further, “1 saw a body
of armed men ascending the staircase. Imme
diately as they ascended they charged bayonets,
and I saw nothing more ol the accused until
alter the affray was over, but I heard the clash
ing of bayonets and the discharge ot two or
three firearms.”
Itieut. O’Conner testifies as follows—“ I was
up stairs on board the steamer Corvette, assist
ing the accused in keeping our men from going
onshore. I saw Col. Baker come on the upper
deck. 1 heard him give the order, to a certain
company or body ot men, to follow him. They
followed and arrived on deck, when he (the
Colonel) gave the order to charge! Soon alter,
1 saw the accused and the Colonel cross swords.
He (Col. Baker) or some other officer next to
him, gave the order a second time, to the Illi
nois troops, to ” charge,” and run the accused
through. They charged—the accused fell.
After the accusedlell, some officerot the Illi
nois troops gave the order again to charge and
run him through. 1 heard some two or three
shots discharged, but did not know who fired
them.” . .
Private C. C. Hammack testified as follows:
“I was sentinel on the upper deck ot the steam
er Corvette. I saw Co). Baker and a portion
ot his troops march up the stairs. When they
came near me I halted, but they passed me by
force, pushing aside my bayonet. They then
inarched opposite the accused and his company.
The first I heard then was the order to charge,
given by Col. Baker, or some of his officers. I
cannot state positively with regard to what oc
curred afterwards.”
After laying the testimony before an intelli
gent public, I should suppose it entirely use
less to offer a word of comment, In the active
discharge ot a duty not only always belonging
to his station, but especially assigned him by
hi« commanding officer, Capt. McMahon is or
dered to “surrender" by an individual entirely
unknown to him at the head of a body ol stran
gers, all armed and apparently anxious for a
conflict. The order was given when he had
already succeeded in separating and controlling
those of his men (some fifteen in number) who
hhdbeen in or near the previous conflict with
the Rangers. For what purpose that order was
given he could not know. Had he obeyed and
" surrendered," it appears to me that he would
then have been guilty oi a breach ot duty.
The word “surrender" addressed to an officer
m command ot his men, was insulting, and well
calculation to provoke indignation.
It appears.that while the contest between Col
Bakerand Capt. McMahon progressin
the Greens did not interfere. It was not until the
former had been pulled back by some one of
his men, and the latter rushed upon and knocked
down by some unknown hand, not until the
command “ charge” had been repeated, and the
words “damn him, run him through” had been
distinctly heard, not until the startling exclama
tion, "our captain is dead!” had been made by
one ot their number, that the Greens rushed over
his prostrate body upon the bayonents charged
against them. 1 ask, could McMahon have
acted otherwise 1 Could the Greens have done
less?
As to the number of persons killed and wound
ed in the affray, 1 believe it is now ascertained
that only one lost his lite in the charge upon
the hurricane deck. He belonged to Col. Ba
ker’s detachment. Those who were wounded
of the Illinois volunteers, together with their
Colonel, (1 am happy to learn) are well again
Capt. McMahon alone was wounded of the
Greens, and he is entirely recovered. Corp.
Whalen was shot, not in the charge, but by
some unknown hand from the lower deck, a ball
and two buckshot passing through his body
and heart.
It is needless to correct in detail the various
other misstatements and exaggerations which
have made their appearance in thepublic prints
in relation to Ibis affair; but 1 will say in con
clusion, that any impression which may have
been made in any quarter, of a want ofcharac
ter or subordination in the Georgia Regiment,
are erroneous. That as its commanding offi
cer, in the spirit ot honorable emulation, I
challenge comparison in point of drill, discip
line and soldierly deportment; and that Georgia
need not blush to own her sons, however much
their characters may have been misrepresented

The Press.—The power of the press, says
Jerold, is as boundless as that of society. It reach
es the throne —it is enclosed in the cottage. It
cau pull down injustice, however lofty, and raise
up lowliness, however deep. It castigates crimes
which the law can only punish, without repressing
them. Wherever an eye can see, or a hand can
write, there is the press. Persons in tribulation
rely on it for redress, and they feel sure that wrong
will not go unpunished, if it be known to the jour
nals. Like light, it penetrates into every nook and
cranny of society, and carries healing on its beams.
It nips rising abuses io the bud. It stops the tide
of tyranny when setting in full flood. It derives
its vast power from the principles of its being.—
Seeking out truth and representing reason, it con
centrates on one point the whole moral power of
society, and persuades and governs without vio
lence, by the mere knowledge that the physical
power of society is always ready to vindicate the
right. As it comes into operation, the course of
society becomes uniform and equal, and it is ob
tained without those convulsions and rebellions by
which a rude, unlettered people make their will
known.
A friend from the camp on the Rio Grande, fur
nishes the following as the manner in which a
Dutchman who was on sentry duty, proclaimed
the hour. The usual cry is “ half past ten o’clock,
and all’s well.” The Dutchman had forgotten the
precise words, and sungout at the top of his voice :
‘ More as den o’clock, and all ish better as goot.”
The editor of the Boston Chronotype has the
right idea with regard to a “ stitch in time.” Hear
him:
“Show me the wile that’s on the watch
For every little rent or scratch,
And cures it with a timely patch,
Before you know it;
She is a woman fit to match
A lord or poet.”
