W OITORIAL. ( (mtIKSPOSI)tNCB.
Washington City, Bept, 22, 1866.
I reached here last night by rail atter
r. journey of five and a half days I had
Hires detent ions on Lho way. Lay over
Sunday at Atlanta—lost two other con
nections—one at Louisville, on account of
the run off of a train ahead of us, a few
miles out from Louisville—the other at
•Seymour, Indiana, the Junc.tion ot tbe
Jeffersonville aud Indianapolis road with
the Ohio and Mississippi road. This
caused a detention of twenty four hours in
the trip. I found the roads, after leaving
Georgia, in good condition, and those in
Georgia in fair running order. Good
time wan made over tbe State road.
1 passed from Atlanta to Chattanooga
in the night, therefore 1 was deprived of
a view of the condition of that unfortu
ate region of Georgia. From thence to
Nashville 1 had a daylight view of the
country. 1 was badly disappointed in
the appearance of that part of Tennessee.
The crops generally are poor, the farms
in bad condition and the houses and their
enclosures much dilapidated. I saw but
two or three fields of good corn—at least
suoh as I wa3 prepared to see in Tennes-
Boe—on the wholo route. From within a
few miles of Murfreeeborough to Nash
ville the farms and dwellings were in fair
condition. Nearly tha whole surface of
(he land in the vicinity of Murfreeobor
ough is planted in cotton. The bast of it
is of a very inferior growth—will possibly
make sixty pounds of lint per acre. A
considerable portion of it will not make
fifty pounds of lint to twenty acres—in
deed, as 1 remarked to a Wisconsin man
who asked mo what 1 thought of it, I do
not believe it will return to the planter the
seed ho planted.
My attention was particularly called to
the prospects of these cotton farms from
having seen a considerable blow in the
Northern papers by their correspondents
traveling South. They came about as
uoar the truth in this as about other mat
ters they have written of the Southern
people since tho war closed.
From Nashville to within four miles of
Louisville, my trip was in the night. At
this point our train was brought to a halt
by another train ahead of us having run
off the traok. We were detained here
several hours. 1 was enabled to see a few
Kentucky farms. The crops of oorn are
very fine and the farms in good condition.
Tho corn is just passing out of roasting
ear.
While detained at this break-down, the
conversation running particularly ou the
state of affairs in Teuuessee, two men,
strangers to me, (one having come in from
another car) remarked that the rebellion
was not near crushed, and that the govern
ment would have to call out at least five
hundred thousand troops to finish up the
job Georgia was represented as one
wanting attention. Fortunately there
were three Georgians present,—Or. Hop
kins, iiemssviUe, Ex-Gov. Lowe, of
Maryla. for the last three years a resi
dent <. ff . odgeville, and ray humble self.
The gentivinen were requested by my
companions to locate the insurrectionary
districts. They thought from their ob
servation it was pretty general all over the
State, but particularized Richmond and
Chatham counties and their vicinity. My
seat was rather in the rear, and up to
this time 1 had been a silent listener to
the conversation . I rose from my seat and
planted myself in their front, and, after
scanning *he two strangers for about one
minute, in a tew words of denial to their
slanders on my State, I closed the argu*
ment. 1 told them 1 had seen and heard
enough of such slanders—tbat the North
ern press, through its correspondents,
seemed to have made special arrange
ments for lying the South down —for the
double purpose of keeping the seceded
Slates out of the Union and to furnish
food for the oontinuanoe of the destruct
ive polioy ofNorthern fanaticism. After
this the conversation turned on other sub
jects, and the two strangers, finding
themselves in (he wrong pew, repaired to
another oar. One of these gentry was a
man fully six feet high, heavy built,
black hair and large black whiskers, said
he was raised in Augusta aud lived there
until about five years ago, and had spent
most of his time there since the rebellion
had stopped.
At Louisville we took dinner at the
Louisville Hotel. It was jußt euoh a din
ner as 1 might have expeoted to find in
the great State of Kentucky. Everything
about the house seemed to indicate that
the landlord understood his business.
Price of dinner one dollar and a half.
From this place we took the oars at
Jeffersonville (a village on the Indiana
side of the Ohio) for Cincinnati, where we
landed about one o’clock at night,—too
late for the connection —and put up at the
Merohant’e Hotel (formerly the Dennison
House,) on Fifth street, near Main. It
is a fine bouse and is kept by Galleher,
Nelson & Cos., from Kentucky. Every
thing indicated that they understood their
business. Nice beds, clean rooms and a
good breakfast Having to lay over till
nine o'clock, I stroled around to look at
the city. I found it a great hive and ev
erybody as busy as a bee. It is a large
oity, and its buildings display great ar
chitectural taste.
Here we took what is termed the Little
Miami road for Columbus, and from
thence took tbe Piedmont route, and
crossed the Ohio river on a ferry boat at
Eclairs. Here we struck the Baltimore
and Ohio road, so noted in the Virginia
campaign. It is a splendid road—double
traok most of the way—passes almost its
eutiro length through a rugged and pictur
esque country, alternately mountains and
rich valleye. It passes, 1 might truly say,
under mountains and over valleys, for
there is not lees than a mile and a half ot
tunnel on the road. From Bolaire to Bal
timore there is no change of cars. Speed
about twenty-five miles per hour.
From Cincinnati our passengers were
principally Indiana and Ohio men They
gave a hopeful account of the political
prospects iu those States, and when they
found 1 was from Georgia, they Hooked
around me to learn the disposition of our
people and wererejoioed to hear prospects
of a bright future, when Georgia’s sons
would again be found in the balls of Con
gress baiiltng with them for civil liberty.
The crops in Ohio are tine. The farm
ers aie now turning over their land and
sowing wheat.

sion of the Court trying Wire. The tes

Omaha, Bept. 26.—Gen. Custis, Col.
Kyler and Mr. Guersey, of tho Commis
sion to make a treaty of peace with the
Northwestern tribes, have reaohed Sioux
City, where they were joined by Gen.
Bibley and Burgeon Wood. They expect
to reaoh Fort Bully, where the great
couucil is to be held, iu about two weeks.
It appears doubtful whether many Indians
will be at Fort Bully. This may cause
delay of several weeks. Hon. A. W. Hub
bard, of the Congressional Committee to
investigate Indian affairs, accompanied
the Commissioners.
Fort Laramie, Bept. 26.—Information
was received to day from Gen. Conner’s
right oolumn, under Col. Cote, to the 21st
inst. it has been encamped near Fort
Conner since the 20th. He bad lost six
hundred horses and two hundred mules,
which were frozen to death in one night.
On the Ist of September he was attacked
by a war party of Sioux, Cherokees, and
Arapahoes, on Powder river. They were
repulsed with heavy loss, our loss being
only four killed and two wounded. On
the 3d the Indians appeared in force, and
wore driven ten miles. The next day the
engagement was renewed, and lasted until
noon. Tho Indians were again defeated
with great slaughter, their loss being
from two hundred to six hundred killed
and wounded. The Indians fled in every
direction; our troops were unable to pur
sue them ou accouut of the poor condi
tion of the stook. Our loss was one
killed, and one oflioer and two men wound
ed. The ladiana lost a large number of
horses. The Indians again attacked our
troops on the Bth, and, after a short but
spirited engagement, were totally routed
and beautifully cleaned out. Their force
is estimated at three thousand. They lost
many of their principal ohiefs.
Our total loss in the three engagements
was seven killed ; one officer and two men
wounded. Another battle was expeoted
on Powder river, but the Indians sud
denly disappeared. Col. Cole will oamp
at Fort Conner until information is re
ceived from Gen. Conner.
niMilag of States Hi«i>u Men-
New York, Bept. 25. —A meeting of

was, and affirming that all exeoutive
proclamations and decrees affecting the
rights of the States, are nnoonstitutional,
null and void, etc. The nomination of a

THE WIRE TRIAL.
Wabhinuton, Sept. 30.—The Wirzs
Commission reassembled to-day. Capt.
Wright, ex-quartermaster at Anderson
ville, was recalled for defense. He testi
fied he succeeded K. B. Winder at that
post; ten of his regiment were taken for
tbe use of tbe hospitals; be sought, but
failed, to obtain more for that purpose.
As to lumber, he was equally unsuccess
ful, owners not having been paid for what
they had previously furnished. An in
junction was served on him and others to
prevent them from cutting timber. He
had never seen Wirz searoh prisoners.
Mr. Baker: Did you hear Capt Wirz
complain of the bad condition of affairs ?
Judge Advocate Chipman objected to
declaration of prisoner.
Mr. Baker said be did not ask for
Wirz’a declaration, but his accounts.
Col. Chipman remarked, Baker asked
about complaints.
Baker said it was a complaint accord
ing to the rules of law, to show the kiud
ly disposition of the accused, in order to
refuse the allegations that he willfuly and
maliciously murdered or maitreatod the
prisoners.
The Court remarked that they had over
and over again overruled such questions.
Baker withdrew his question, aud pre
pared another, viz : Do you know of any
act on part of Wirz to ameliorate the con
dition of prisoners.
Witness replied he could not think of
any Witness never heard of any soldiers
receiving furlough far shooting Union
prisoners Ha had frequently oarried
vegetables ta the stockade for the relief of
piisoners Wirz permitted Masonic hon
ors to ba paid to deceased prisoners.
Lieutenant Davis was in oharge when
Capt. Wirz was sink. Cross examined by
Col. Cbipmau Witness had no personal
knowledge of what Wirz did on the stook
acte, but outside of it he knew the accused
put prisoners in stocks and chain gang.
W. D. Hatheriok, of the Confederate
army, testified that he never saw any of
his men shoot prisoners hut had seen them
after they were shot. Witz never, to his
knowledge, promised turlougbs for shoot
ing prisoners. No orders were issued to
take from Stoneman’s raiders anything
more than money, knives and forks, and
suob other articles as they stole from the
people of the country through whioh they
passed. Confederate soldiers were pun
ished just the same as Union prisoners
The Commission here adjourned tiii Mon
day.
Washington, Sept. 30.—The trial of
Wirz is expeoted. to last several weeks
longer, as the examination of witnesses for
defense proceed elowly, counsel taking
care to sift them all, for the purpose, it
appears, of establishing the following
facts, viz . That the eonduot of accused
was generally humane, that ho was sick
and absent from Andersonville when
many of tbe alleged atrooities were com
mitted, that he was not responsible for
vaccination, which resulted so bad, that
be never maltreated anybody nor acted
willfully and maliciously; that although
the rules of the prison were strongest and
there was lack of physicat comfort, the
“old Dutch Captain,” as his counsel calls
him, was not responsible to tbe extent
contained in the charges ; in a word, that
the evidence for the Government will not
justify his conviction.
A subpena for Gen. R E. Lee was sent
off this morning, and it is expected he
will arrive by the middle of next week.
Gen. Howell Cobb, ex-Gov. Brown, and
three Georgia Senators, C. Johnson and
Col. Rould are also summoned to appear
as witnesses for defence.
THE ANDERSONVILLE RECORDS.
The Herald's special says . Gen. Baker
has lately oome into the possession of the
letter book of the Adjutant’s offioe at An
dersonville, together with piles of docu
ments and orders whioh throws a great
deal of light upon the management of
tbat infamous pen, and fixes the paterni
ty of many brutal orders beyond dispute
by letter press copies of the original.
These documents, which have been un
earthed only |after a long and trying
searoh, have been turned over to the
Judge Advocate in the Wirz trial, and
will be introduced by him in evidence,
the case for the prosecution being re
opened for that purpose. The complica
tions of high Rebel officials in the prison
atrocities bid fair to beoome known from
evidence furnished by themselves,
duplicate CHECKS NOT TO BE PAID.
New York, Sept. 30. —The Times's

cession probably to devolve upon some of

Gen. Duff Green'* Interview with the
President.
General Duff Green is about to publish
a letter reciting the conversation which
he had with Fresident Lincoln just before
the fall of Riohmood. Mr. Green, in his
interview, told Mr. Lincolu that the
people of the South wanted peace The
latter replied, Mr. Green says, in this
wise : “If you want peace, come back
into the Union, and if you want slavery,
or do not want it, you can vote on the
Constitutional Amendment. I can not take
baok any of my emancipation proclama
tion, but 1 will be liberal in amnesty to
the Southern people.” This took place in
presence of General Weitzel and others.
We are informed says the Nashville
Press and Times that an English company
has leased and purchased upwards of 130,-
000 acres of oil lands along the route of

direction of a resident engineer, who
thinks the land valuable for oil, and rich
in minerals heretofore unsurpassed in this
region.
