TRIAL OF THE COLUMBUS PRISONERS
Sixth Day-
Monday, July Gth.
The Commission met pursuant to adjourn
ment, and the testimony of the previous day
was read to the witnesses.
The President said that the prisoners
should not leave their seats without permis
sion.
liurrell Davis (colored witness) wanted to
make an additional statement, but as it was
not tor the purpose of correcting any state
ment already made, it was not admitted.
Abraham Johnson asked to have the name
of "tieary Kimbrough” changed to “Henry
Gammell” on the record. This witness also
endeavored to suggest other alterations, but
upon having stated them in an unintelligible
manner, it was found that the record con
tained them already.
Tne J ndge Advocate stated that the case
for the prosecution was closed, and that they
were ready to submit it as it stood, when a
recess often minutes was taken for the pnr-
posa of allowing counsel for the defence an
opportunity of consulting with their wit
nesses.
The Court haviug resumed its sitting, the
case for the detence was opened, when the
TESTIMONY OF MARTIN M. BECK
was proceeded with as follows:
My name is Martin M. B;ck, age 45 and
live in Columbus; I am acquainted with Mr.
Duke (witness pointed him out); he boarded
with me in February and March, up to the
26:h or 27th cf March; I don’t remember
wliich day it was; he left my house on the
26th or 27lh of March—the 27th, 1 believe;
Joseph Abner lelt with him; they left in a
buggy to go where he lived; his home is in
Meriwether connty; he came back to my
house on the 1st of May, being the first time
I saw him after be lelt on the 27th of March;
Mr. Abner is a white man; I expect Sir.
Abner is in Columbus at this lime; he was
off in the country when I left; he lives in
the suburbs of the city.
B/ the Court—Hoivdoyoti remember that
it was oo the 26;h or 27th of Slarch Duke
left your bouse ?
Answer—By sonta business that I was
transacting them days.
By the Court—You are sure that it was
nat later than the 27th of .March that Duke
left yoar house ?
Answer—Yes.
To Mr. Stephens—Jt was on Friday before
the death of Ashburn. I am certain it was
on Friday.
By the Court—Are you certain that he left
town wbeu he left your house, and did not
letutn, night or day, until May 1st ?
Answer—I could not say positively what a
man does after he Rets out of iuy sight. I
know that Abner told tne, when he returned,
that he left him in Miriwfether. I know I
received a letter from hint, dated at that
place.
The Judge Advocate moved to strikeout
Wliat AAincv hnd told tho witness, but would
not do so in regard to the statement about
the letter, although it was very objectionable.
Mr. Stephens stated that ho had not ob
jected to any of his (the Judge Advocate’s)
questions, as his object was to have the ease
fully sifted.
The Court retired for consideration of the
Judge Advocate’s motion, and returned in a
few secouds, when it was announced ihat the
Judge Advocate’s motion was sustained.
testimony of iienry welch.
I was a carpenter by trade before I lost my
arm. I am acquainted with William Dukes.
I saw him during the latter part of March.
1 saw him about the 26 h or 27th of March,
in company with Joseph Abner. They were
riding in a buggy. I asked him where he
was going, aud he said he was going home.
Cross-Examined—I am acquainted with
Mr. Beck; I talked over what 1 have testified
with him a few days before I left home; I
talked with him this morning, but we did
not tulk about it; I don’t recollect that we
spoke this morning about the 26th or 27th
of March, or that it was mentioned by either
of us; they were mentioned, but I don’t re
collect who mentioned them; there were sev
eral talking ; I supposs these several persons
were talking about these dates.
(Witness here named the parties.)
The conversation took place outside on
the piazza of this buildiDg; I don’t recollect
anything being said about auything else; I
believe I would have recollected the date
even if it had not been so stated; I would
recollect it from private business with a genjr
tlemau in Columbus; I am not positive us to’
which of the two days; I think it was either
on Thursday or Friday; I don’t tbiuk the
words “Thursday or Friday" were mention
ed in tho conversation this morning; I have
been acquainted with Duke three years; I
had no conversation with him further than
to ask him where he was going; I first re
membered that after the death of Ashburn,
when I heard of Duke’s arresi; my attention
was not called to the fact by any person; I
remembered it well; I think it was about 6
or 7 o’clock in the morning when I met
him.
To Mr. Stephens—The Hirristown road
leads to Memwether county. There is no
other road leading to that county from that
place that I know of.

S3-ADVERTISEMENTS.—First insertion, *1 oo (part of March; I don’t know whether he was
._ — at home in the middle of March; I don’t

TESTIMONY OF JOUEDAN EEESE.
I am a farmer. I will soon be seventy
years old. I know Duke. I have been ac
quainted with him about sixteen or eighteen
months. He lives betwien three and four
hundred yards from me. He is a black
smith. He worked sometimes in a black
smith shop and sometimes in a wood shop,
i was with him on the 30lh day of March,
at the shop. His shop is a kind of resort for
the neighborhood. He was there between
sunset and dark. It was on Monday even
ing. I was there also next morning I was
getting some work done there. Duke was
there men. I was there on Wednesday also.
As well as I can recollect, it was about
1’hursday or Friday I first heard of the mur
der of A. X think one of my neighbors went
up to LaGrange and heard it there. We
always call it torty miles from our farm to
Columbus. It is a very long day’s ride.
Cross-Examined—I heard Duke's name
mentioned in connection with the murder
ot A. firsL when he was arrested ; I think it
was the day alter; I heard of it about Friday
evening or Saturday morning, and I was
very much astonished; I can’t remember the
date that he was arrested; I dout’t know
the datejof A’s murder only from heaisay;
no person has “asked me since his airosi
if X knew when he returned home;
several have talked about the time that A.
was killed in the shop there; there was a
general talk about his arrest; there was a
general surprise at it; I did not know that
I was coming here until they sent for me;
I have hud no conversation with any per
son since my arrival here as to the date of
A’s murder; we heard in our neighborhood

home to go to Columbus; they pass hack
and forward frequently’; tho family does; I
do not know how long he was absent at auv
one time; I frequently had work done at
the shop; he was at homo in February but
not in me first of March; [ don’t recollect
how long he was absent at any one time; I
don’t recollect whether he was at home all
of February or not; when he came noma
before Ashburn’s murder, he was brought
home by Abner.
To Mr- Stephens—I was hot subpeeaied,
I have not had one yet. I got notice of it
from a gentleman who came from here. We
have talked about the arrest—the neighbors
talked about it. X have been in DaGrange
la it week. I was asked by two gentlemen
there about it.
TESTIMONY OF J. T. WOODWARD.
I am a farmer. 1 live in Meriwether coun
ty’. I know William Duke (identified priso
ner). I live about a mile and a half from
his father’s house. I saw him on the 27th,
28th, 30th and 31st of March and 1st of
April. He was in hia father’s house on £he
27th. It was soon iu the evening. He was
at the shop on the 28th. These were Friday
and Saturday. I saw him on Monday, 30th,
at his father’s, late in the evening. I saw
him at his father’s early on the morning of
the 31st March. The house where I saw nim
is lorty miles from Columbus. I first heard
of the murder the 2J day of April, at the
shop. There was an old gentleman then up
there from two or three miles below, who
told me about it. I also heard it from a
youug geutlemun who had come from La-
Grange.
Cross-examined—I heard first that he was
connected with the murder of A. when he was
arrested; I cannot recollect the day he was ar
rested, because I was uot at home; I think
be was arrested on Thursday or Friday; 1
won’t be certain; Thursday, I think; I can
not tell what day ot the month that was; it
interested me to know that my neighbor was
charged with so serious a crime; it was
Thursday; I have my work done at theshop,
and I go there every day or two; I was there
almost all the month ot April; when I heard
of his arrest. I recollected the day I saw him;
I then knew the data of A.’s death; when I
heard of his arrest I charged my mind with it
then, but I cannot now remember the date
when my neighbor was arrested on a charge
oi murder; nothirg has recurred since Duke’s
arrest to cause me to reflect on tne date of
the murder; we have been talking about
him; X have not been talking about nim to
day, but I recollect talking about him yes
terday; I spoke about him before I left home
to my brother and others; X have talked with
some of the witnesses hereaooutii; I talked
with the prisoner's brother about it; his
name is Jdud; I talked with his sister about
it; I talked with them the evening we
came here; I do not remember the d rt y
lelt homo to go to Columbus before the
The Democratic Convention.
The Convention limited its labors yester
day to preliminaries. After having been
I’zed, it proceeded to the
death of A.; X do not remember any day
since Christmas that he was at home but the
dates I have already named; he came from
Columbus I think on the first day 0 t March.
To Mr. Stephens—The death of a. created
a great sensation in my neighborhood. Peo
ple were very much surprised lo hear of it.
To the Judge Advocate—I never was ini
Montgomery iu my file, and never was in
Columbus hut once.
The witnesses for the defence, who had
been examined to-day, were told by tb e
Judge Advocate that they must not speak to
any of Duke’s witnesses who had not yet
tesiified.
Mr. Stephens requested that witnesses who
had not been examined be all called iu un j
the same order given them.
This was done and the Judge Advocate
told the witnesses that if it were found that
any of them conversed with each other in re
lation to their testimony they would prob
ably he called to some account for it.
On motion the Court adjourned at.3 o’clock,
p. m., in order to give Mr. Eugene.JXivis,
the Eeportsr, an opportunity of transcribing
his uoles.
Wolves Caught.—James Davis, living in
Texas Valley,. in this connty. brought to
town on the 6th instant, three half grown
young wolves. He run them into their den
in Rock Mountain, and dug them ont. Two
are black and one grey. Wolves are said to
be quite numerous in that vicinity, aud Mr.
D. has recently killed one of the-same litter
as these he caught, and thinks be poisoned
to death the mother of them.—Rome Courier.

Parliament have, since its organization in
1865, been unseated for bribery Donnhcted
With their elections.
.1 recognition
West Virginia as one ot the regular States.
There was little speechmaking,’ and the
reading was confined to the Declaration of
Independence. Propositions for a night ses
sion met little favor,.and at sn ■ early hour
the Convention adjourned till to-morrow
morning.
In the meantime, the efforts in behalf of
the candidates go on with uoabated zeal
There is apparently no disposition to sur
tender in any quarter,
The Pendleton party retain their confi
dence, and spaak, we believe not without
reason, of steady accessions -of strength
from unexpected quarters. If a majority
vote determined the nomination, Pendleton
wpuld undoubtedly be the man. No other
candidate is supported with half the enthu
siasm or a tithe of the disinterested Uevoted-
ness which seems lo prevail among his ad
herents.
Tne friends of Mr. Chase profess faith in
his ultimate adoption os the most available
candidate. They affect contempt for the
fierce energy of Pendleton’s supporters, and
perfect satisfaction with the prospects of
their own favorite. Any attempt to analyze
the Chase strength, however, brings to light
the fact that it is predicated on tne alleged
jealousies and antagonism of other seel ion
and the assumed preference for Chase as
compromise candidate. It is not difficult to
trace another ground ot’ confidence, which
may in reality prove Chase’s weakness. VV
refer to an evident reliance upon tho power
of money as the potent agency for conver
sion and reconciliation. But any plan for
carrying the Convention by tfie force of
greenbacks is likely to disappoint its pro
footers. There is, of course, a coirupt ele
ment waiting for bidders, -hut the mere sus
picion of being puichased is a contingency
which will weigh against the Chase inter
est.
Besides, the bitterness which the Chase
managers manifest toward Prndleton will al
most certainly usure their deeat. The rote
devoted to Pendleton is sufficiently large to
prevent the nomination of any other'candidate:"
from which we infer that it will have more to
say in regard to the nomination than any other
section of the party. The presumption is that
Pendleton himself wii, fail, but we take it that
Pendleton’s friends will still, in effect, control
the nomination. They will probably pay back
the Chase intrigue with interest.
The other candidates are impatiently waiting
for something to turi up. Atul there are no
wanting prophets wfi .foretell the fishing up of
a second Pierce, w ei/ all the big fish shall
have broken throu. h the net.—New )

An Alligator »tv> ions a NeRro— Eels
Captured
The Norfolk Journal of a recent date has
the following bit jf exciting news:
On Wednesday list two men, who were
driving carUtna the road running along the
bank of the bemarle atul Chesapeake Ca
nal, near C/.rjock Bridge, observed some
thing strange in the water below<them. xn e
mud was birred up, and a heavy splashing
kept going on, go that the men did not kuow
at first what it was that made alt the distur
bance. At last, utter they had thrown some
stones in where they perceived the creature,
an immense alligator came to the surface
aud looked fiercely at the disturbeis of his
gambol..
The men having gun3 with bird-shot, along,
commenced firfog at him, but finding that
the shot had no effect, they repaired to the
store at the bridge, obtained reinforcements
and heavier ammunitfotf, and returned to the
attack. Having then Opened on him with
old Confederate muskets, the alligator was
compelled to beat a'retreat, which he did,
with a large crowd jafter him, shouting and
firing. At a turn id the canal he ran among
a crowd of negro boya who were swimming,
and notwithstanding the heat of tLo pursuit,
he took time to lay hold of one of them,
which he managed to swallow as he con
tinued his retreat. After a short distance
more he was finally brought to with a ball
through one of his eyes, and his skin now
graces the walls of his captor’s house in Cur
rituck county. It is Beldom one of these
fierce creatures is seen so far north.
The Siamese Twins.—The New York Tri
bune announces that these twins have deter
mined to dissolve their physical partnership by
severing the ligament that has hound them
together for so long a period—about sixty
years. The younger people of these times are
not acquainted with these remarkable twins.
They were born united by a stout ligament
fixed to the breast of each in close proximity to
lie vital organs. This ligament, some ten ir-
cnes in circumference, is endowed with sensa
tion, morbid aud .nerve-mental conditions to
such a degree that the highest medical authori
ties hare differed as to the possibility of
severing it without death to the twins. It was
considered so hazardous that they have lived
together, with all the inconveniences of such a
union, for their long lives. They came to this
country in 1827, and were exhibited for some’
year3, after which they retired to a valuable
farm in North Carolina, where they were mar
ried io two sisters, natives of that State, aiid
each have nine children.
At last Chang aud Eng—these are their
names—propose to separate; and it is said
they will go to Paris to have the operation pert
formed. VVe half suspect this announcement
as a prelude to the reappearance of these old
twins in public for the benefit of their numer
ous progchy— IVe shall see.
