Hew York Herald, *p:il 1.
A very unusual tone occurred yarertlsy
in cmremt court, chambers, before Judge
Donohue. Colon* I John It. Fellows ca«*.e
into ootrt arcompaired by two ladies, Both
were fashionably dresed and matronly
looking, and one waa of decidedly prepo#
aerning ap|«araitc*. The latter cast her eyes
anxiously alemi the room as if looking for
some one. Within a tew minutes a tall.
Hue looking gentleman came into the room,
and, seeing the ladies, advanced to where
they were seated. The lady spoken of saw
him instantly.
" How do vou dof* the gentleman asked,
extending lus hand. <
‘After what has occurred bow can you
expect me to speak to you.” quietly
answered the lady, her eyea dashing with I
mdigna’ion. "Where is Lulu?” she then
asked, eagerly. ‘ Why have you not brought
her here, as ortiereJ by the ujuh? lias any
thing happened to the child:*’
"Lulu is not veil," the gentleman
answered; "a mere temporal)’ illness, noth
ing more. I will be able to bring her into
court lo-ir.orrow."
The opening of the story underlying the?
above brief conversation. MS told by Colo
nel Fellows, who stated that lie baa come
into court pursuant to habeas corpus pro
ceedings instituted by Mrs. Warner to ob
tain the custody of her daughter. Lulu, a
bright and proniUing girl nearly ten years
old. The suit of habeas corpus had teen
direr toil to Charles .1. Warner, the father of
the young girl, with directions to produce
lier in court yesterday morning.
"The father is present,” continued Colo
nel Fellow*, "but he has failed to produce
the daughter.”
"Mite is tooHtk robe brought into court,”
interrupted Mr. Warner, riming to his feet.
"I regrei foray,” proceeded Colonel Fel
lows, "iliat I cannot believe what this limit
aayn. Outlie 11th of la-t January liede
aericd his wife and two children in Rome,
fix, and. taking his daughter Lulu will)
liiiu, lied in coni|iany with a young lady of
artistic repute, whose name I do not care to
mention, lie lias since put Lulu on the
•da.fe, and I am ssnoudy airaid, unless your
honor makra some stringent order, lie will
fail to prod lift! the child, and lier mother
trill never »ec her again.'’
"When will you produce the child?”
Judge Donohue anketi Mr. Warner.
"To-morrow,” he answered.
"Hut 1 want to lie sure of her pmduc
tio'i," said Colonel Fellows, "and. as I hav«
already intimated, I nnt not dfaixMeri to
plarc any confidence in this man a prom-
IMS."
"I will have the child given lo her
mol hi r,” said Mr Warner.
"Is tnat salisfactory7"asked Judge Ihjp.o-
hue.
"Ferfeclly,” replied Colonel Fellows;
"only I want your honor lo direct an otilcer
logo with him at once, lake posM-ssion of
the child and deliver her over to Mrs. War
ner at her trniimrary residence with a lady
friend in Brooklyn.
An order to llus effect was at once given
by Judge Donohue, with further instruc
tions that the child lie brought into court
this morning, when he wouid give a full
hearing to t he case.
On leaving the court room a reporter of
the Herald had an interview with Mrs.
Warner, who, on being inquired of as to
whether Lulu was her only child, said:
"No, hut she is ray only daughter. 1 had
another daughter, but she died when she
was four years old. I have two sons, the
eldest of whom is thirteen years of age.
Mr. Warner left me in January last. We
lived in Home, Ga , ami kept a store for the
►ale of photographs, artists' materials and
fancy (lottery. My. husband had ilia care
of the opera-house at Koine The enter
tainments and theatrical exhibitions that
came there we sold the tickets for. and this
made him very much of a public man. lie
is a Freemason and is (topular in our town
anil in many parts of the south. Among
the musical circles of Home he was very
much in requmi; he is an excellent lluie
p'ayer, ami was. therefore, aide to a-si>t
very frequently in getting up concerts."
"lias music tiad anything to do in pro
ducing this discord between you, Mrs.
Warner 7”
"l don’t know that it 1ms," said Mrs.
Warner, with a slight smile. ’ IVrhnps you
will umlerstand this matter if 1 begin' at
the beginning. I was redding at' Rich
mond, Vw, with tnry mother when 1 fir-1
made the acquaintance of Mr. Warner. He
told me that he was born in Gravesend,
England; that he ran away from home, and
landed at New Orleans, when he was four
teen years of age. He is now forty-three
years old. 1 noticed that during our court
ship he always pleaded that he had
gagement every evening about 7 o’clock,
and that he went away and left me alxiut
that time. I tried to get from him what
the engagement was, but he would never
tell me, mi I set my brother lo watch hiiu.
He followed him and returned to tell me
that Mr. Warner played in a band
belonging to a circus which was then
in Richmond. 1 did not mind
that mi much as I might
probably have done if I had known it
earlier in our acquaintance. He left the
hand, however, ultimately, and went int
partnership with a photographer in the
neighltorhood of the Wbite Sulphur Springs,
About fourteen year* ago we were married.
We heard of a photographic gallery for sale
in Rome, Ga. My mother amt I had some
little money, ami my husband had some; n
we put together ami bought the gallery.
We then went to Rome to live. My hus
band s faculty for making himself agreeable
was quite useful, and in the Presbyterian
church sociables, with which we were con
nected, and iu nil the social entertain
mentsof the city, he was always an active
worker. By this means we made a greut
many friends. 1 was very anxious that lie
►how Id become a Mason. At that
time there was not a lodge that
was nearer than twenty miles, ami when
I urged him to qualify for membership he
always said that the lodge was too far away
] asked him whether, if I should get him i
horse, he would ride over some lodge night.
He said he would. I got him the horse,
and he rode over and came back a Mason,
1 was very proud of it. Our business pros
pc rod, we lived a very happy life, we had
children born to tts. We decided that we
would open a store for the sale of photo
graphs and artistic material, and we did so.
Our residence was at some little distance
from the store. I, however, managed not
only to attend to rov houseand keep board
era. but also to l»e a clerk in toy busbandY
stole, and he used to tel! his customers that
the reason he could sell cheaper than others
was that he did not have to pay a clerk.
" Among our friends was* demist, a doc
tor of medicine, whose family consisted of
a wife and daughter. The father was a good
violinist, and the daughter grew to be a
popular amateur vocalist, with a good so
prano voice. Wnen we first went to Rome
she was quite a g-.rl. ami she is now only
abont twenty years of age. For some long
time past the gossips of the place had asso
ciated my husoand’s name with tin-* young
lady's, and at last repotts were brought to
me tl at they were seen very frequently in
each other's society. Well, that was not
very strange, because her father, her mother
amt herself were friends of onrs and were
with my husband a good deal in musical
practice. The young lady sang in the church
choir. 1 do not now know or believe that
there was anything wrong in this acquaint
ance of my hushand with the doc
tor’s daughter. But the townspeople knew
wore than 1 did, and I of course was the
last to know anything that looked susj
ctods. Now and then the rumor would t_
ao strong that 1 was obliged to sneak to my
husband about iu He always denied that
there was anything mote than the merest
friendship between them, and told me not
to mind what was said by the goosips. Well.
1 went on trying not to mind, but the tala
was so loud that 1 asked my husband to
suggest to her that sbe should not come to
the store, lie replied that it was a public
store, and be could not do that. So matters
went on, and 1 am now laid that they have
been seen passing letters to one another
either as they met iu the church or
Sunday school.
"One day in January last my husband
told me that be wanted to go to Atlanta on
business and would take Lulu with him.
He arranged his affairs, leaving me in
charge of hi* business. It was on a A'edues-
day. and be told me he would be back on
Thursday or Friday. Sunday came and
they did not return, and I made some ex
cuse for him to inquiring friends. On
Monday the doctor to whom I have refer
red came to me and asked me when my
husband went away . I told him. and he
►aid that his daughter left in the tnon.ing
of the same day lor Kingston, which is a
little distance on the road lo Atlanta, to
visit some friends, and she had not retnrne*!.
The doctor subsequently went to Atlanta,
‘ tay husband

had left roe because he thought it waa bet
ter, and he was anxious that Lulu should
be fitted for the stage I don't want my
daughter brought op for the stage. I want
her to be brought up w> that she shall know
her brothers when she bees ’hem. I wrote
a letter to rov husband giving ray views
abont it, and remindirghim of all the hap
py years o: our wedi**u life. A letter was
sent me through a lady In the city, but I
never read it, though others did. 1 after
ward learned that the letter was very abu
►ive of roe. I then set about to try to find
roy child. We sent a roan over to New
York with a letterof introduction to Police
Captain Gunner, but nothing caroc of it.
Some lady fxiendc of mine were coming to
New Yoric to buy millinery, about three
weeks ago. and the thought occurred to me
that I could C.'vue with them au 1 probably
find roy daughter. The mayor of Rome
gave roe a letter to Mavor
Cooper, who recant in ended ms to Colonel
Fellows. I stated my case to that gentle
man folly, and retained hint as niv lawyer.
He employed Detective L. A. Newcomb,
who traced my husband from the post-
oflloe on Friday last. Colonel Fellows was
in Washington, and it was not until to-day
that we could bring the case into court.
Wfcep the judge gave the order for me to
havefhe.custody of Lulu I went with the
de'eotHto and a lady friend to my husband's
lodging*, at No. Iftfl Clinton place, and there
saw toy child, and here the fa," pointing to
an interesting girl, who is said to be a dan-
ter. a harpist and a singer.
"Lulu,” continued Mrs. Wanur, "has

When, this morning, I saw the difference of
numbers, lo prevent the effusion of blood, I
advised our beloved commander to surren
der. I can hardly tell yon how severe the
blow is to me, but I submit as best I can.
God has some wise purpose in view. He
may yet deliver us. He only knows what
ours hence may cdme to pass, -Ami now
i>r this army of faithful, gallant men, 1 will
ay why it was necessary to surrender.
What do you think was the number
of niu-kete that we Ooiild bring
in here this morning? But eight thou-
-:»•«!, when we had a force of sixty
thousand in our front. It was too few; we
ild not hone to win. What hope was
left for this glorious old army against such
numbers? Why, then, hurl them against
our foe? Why sacrifice the last remnant of
the gallant baud who had so often rallied
around us and fought side by side, ind who
were still willing to fight on, and who felt
that nothing would indued them to surren
der? I have often felt so myself, hut to
save the gallant crew 1 felt that 1 must sic
rilice all personal feeling.
I it consulting this morning wiili our brave
old commander, whom we will teach our
children lo love and venerate, I f«i
we had but ten thousand effective
elusive of that other gallant brum hoi the
service, the artillery, who have shown their
bravery and devotion on a thousand fields.
Besides, we had none, or at least very little
artillery ammunition. Scarcely enough
ammunition remutr.ed for one engagement,
and where more was to be gotten was a
question more easily asked than answered,
our rations had also failed. Men were on
the verge of starvation, and certain de
struction on the other hand staring them iu
the face. The small Kind of gallant men
would still tighten; and while 1 honor such
brave hearts, my judgment said: “Nay,
bring not such grief to the kind ones at
borne, unless {teace and independence be
secured.”
If 1 lielieved that could be accomplished
I would willingly lay down my life: but, ns
1 said before, God has decreed otherwise,
ami we must submit willingly, and with
Christian fortitude hear up under our mis
fortune. 1 must say, however, that General
Grant lias been most liberal in his terms.
[Then follow the terms.]
And now, as I bid you good-bye for the
last time to many, as I meet the'glanccs of
those eyes that have so often flashed around
me in the hour of victory, I feel alnui
manned. Truly, it is a teat that tries
souls. But let ns bear up under this
most terrible of calamities—let u
wish it may reuoutid to our honor, am
never forget the noble men we have buried
around us. When 1 speak in tins man tier
I wish it understood I am not sorry
have had this contest. I fee! that it i
right, and though my dearest friends, nay
even my brother, have fallen by my side. 1
do not repent of it. I feet that 1 have done
my duty. I felt that the honor of our coun
try demanded that a blow should be struck,
and we have struck that blow.
To this handful of brother officers and
soldiers I return my grateful thanks for the
honor they have paid me. and if my heart
bowsat any shrine, it is that of virtue and
bravery. The few thousand men who have
stood up so manfully during this trying
time have my thanks as well as the thanks
of your coramsnder-in-chief. You know
not bow dear they are u> the heart of that
beloved man. The greatest sorrow is. all
the men did not behave as these few did.
and that the buxden of the day was thrown
on this gallant few. But, take warning by
this, let me admonish you. that in the
future, whenever you embark in any enter
prise, never stop as long as those who have
the right urge you to go ou.
And now a word to the artillery, and I
am done. To the First Virginia artillery,
which fired the first gun of the war, and to
day fired the last, 1 must return my thanks.
And the infantry of my comtuaiul I must
thank tor their action to-day. I honor you
that, notwithstanding the hopelessness of
the cause, you this morning drove the ene
my until ordered to come back, and then
retreated in the most complete order.
I thank you for your promptness and obe
dience to orders while under my conm*and.
I must thank the division of Busbrod John
ston for their gallant conduct tbi> morning.
And now tliatyou are about to be disband
ed, I want it distiuctly understood that you
are still subject to your officers, and must
obey and respect them as such. Let me
beg of you, now that you are so soon to re
in rn to your homes, let no disorderly c n-
duct tarnish that fair fame * and
reputation you have so deservedly
won. Disturb not our grieved and
oppressed people; they haTe enough to bear
them down tlradr. Let it be handed down
to posterity that these men know how to
vindicate their claim to the title of soldiers
and gentlemen. I want to admonish you
that as we have been so un»uccessfu! in this
struggle, to bow to she Divine decree as be
come u- ;Jit ia our duty as men and Chris
tians. Let us not indulge in too harsh feel
ings to our enemies; but let us cherish and
hold dear the memory of those who have
fallen in this glorions struggle.

willing to give up his opin
in this case where lifetime imprisonment
has been the sentence.
The court-room was here cleared and the
jury left alone to consider all the evidence
which had been submitted and decide
whether Hill was a sane man and liable to
the penalty of the law or one whose reason
was defective if no tentirely.dethroned.
THE YEBDICT.
The jury remained in consultation about
one hour and a half and then announced
that they had made up their minds. The
foreman. Dr. Owen, handed iu the verdict,
which announced that the jury had found
the applicant insane. The fnends of the
prisoner seemed profoundly gratified
at this result. Mr. Jeffries, whose
superb management of this case
has added a fresh laurel to his legal fame,
was cpmplimented by numbers of persons
l*st night. He has shown rare abilities and
such perseverance and pluck as are seldom-
soen even at the bar. Few lawyers in the
state have been so successful as Mr. Jeffries
it the criminal practice. His acquittal of
Jake Stafford, and Julia Johnson and his
fine management of the latter stages of the
Hill case make for him an enviable record.
The ordinary will, in accordance with the
verdict, order Hill to the asylum in a few
days. As an evidence that lie is really in
sane, it may be stated that he appears rather
to regret the verdict than to rejoice at it.

FELTON’S FACTS
AS RELATED IN HIS OWN BEHALF.
The Doctor Grows Nervous Over the Strictures of
the Press Regarding his Tariff Record, and
Famishes Some Tariff Proceedings to
8haw his Free Trade Bearings.
Washington, March 31.—Editors Atlan
ta Constitution: As it seems to be the
manifest determination of the newspaper
press in Georgia to misrepresent everything
I say or do—in or out of congress, it be
comes sometimes necessary to correct false
statements, and perversions of the truth.
Whether it is intended to defame every
man who does not agree to the methods of
a certain political organization in Georgia,
or whether these attacks are repeated to af-
ford amusement to a certain class of readers,
I am unable to decide. I only ask sufficient
space to correct such statements whenever
I deem the necessity sufficient to require
explanation or denial.
Allow me to copy a paragraph just here,
which appeared editorially in your paper
of Marcn 28th:
Mr. Felton was the only Georgia member who
voted to take Mr. Townshcnd’s bill from the com
mittee on revision of laws which would havo
favorably icported it. He voted to send it to tbe
