Jusr IN Tns.-From the Macon Telegraph We
sory the following:
While Gen. Forrest was making bis forced cavalry
march upon Murfreesboro, the enemy at that place,
all unconscious Of their approaching doom, was
holding drum-head court for the trial of numerous
citizens Of the vicinity accused Of shooting tho YAM
kee pickets. They had condemned quite number
to be hung-among them master Charley Ridley, a
youth Of sixteen, entirely innocent Of the offence
charged, but most acceptable victim, nasmuch as
be was the son of Blooddeld L. Ridley, one Of the
Judges Of the Cbancery Court Of Tennessee, whose
brother, DR.. Charles L. Ridley, citizen of Jasper
county in this State, is well known to many Of
readers While these summary trials and convic-
7tions were going on, the distant thunder Of the
tramp of cavalry attracted the attention Of the hon
orabis Court" and in few minutes the sharp re-
port of musketry and the terrified cry of "ths
rebels the rebels!" adjourned that tribunal with
more dispatch than ceremony. The Provost Marshal,
who, in few minutes, would have been treating his
prisoners to short shrift and q cord took to his
heels, and the happy escaped set up shout of de-
liverance that made the welkin ring. What . lucky
arrival tbr them!

Half Sheet.

We shall be under the necessity hereafter until
the close of the war, until the price OF printing
paper is reduced, of furnishing our Semi Weekly
subscribers with half sheet. We are noX paying
more than double the amount which we paid before
the war for paper, and four times more than we
formerly paid for ink and both these articles are
difficult to he procured, even at these prices The
Petersburg and Richmond papers, and others Of our
contemporaries, have been issuing half sheets for
several months past We only follow their exam
pie, in yielding to necessity almost imperative.
Our Semi Weekly will contain in half sheet
quite as much reading matter as we have heretofore
furnished Our Weekly will continue to be issued
on whole sheet, and will contain all the reading
matter of the Semi Weekly.
We had one or two courses before us-either to
advance the price of the Standard, or reduce the
Semi.Weekly to half sheet. We think our pat
rons and friends will prefer the latter course, as we
have.
While on the subject we may as well add, that
there is no better advertising medum in the State
than the Standard. Its circulation is probably
larger than that of any paper in the State and con
stantly increasing

side of the river into the enemys camp this side

Gen. Charles sidsey Wiader.

We were IN error IN our ast In stating that Gen.
Windsr, who was killed in tho 5attls Of Southwest
Mountain, was Federal officer Gen. Charles s,
winder was native Of Maryland Hs graduated
s the Military Academy at West Point in 1850,
ana was placed IN the Sd regiment Of Artillery. A
'ew ysss after hs entered the service be, With his
regiment was ordered to California They started
on the steamship San Francisco, and whom few
Gays from New York, she was lost Many Of the
passengers were saved Lieut. Winder for his gal.
ant services on this occasion, was promoted to CAP.
tam OF Infantry, and was ordered with bis regiment
to Oregon, where he was for long time actively
engaged against the hostile Indians in that State
AS soon as the Provisional government Of the
Confederate States was formed at Montgomery he
resigned his commission in the United States army,
left his home in Maryland and rendered his services
to the South They were accepted, and he was Or
dered to report to Gen. Beauregard at Charleston,
S. C., as Captain Of Artillery, in which capacity
he rendered good service in the bombardment Of
Fort Sumter. After the fall Of Fl Sumter, he was
placed in the command of the Arsenal at Charles
ton, where he remained until called by the Presi-
dent to take command of q South Carolina regiment
In Virginia. He fastened to Beauregard with his
regiment and arrived at Manassas Just as the enc.
my began their retreat-too late to join in the
, battle
AT tho time Of the retreat of General Johnston's
army from Manassas, he was promoted to Brigadier
General, and was ordered to report to Gen. Stone
wall Jackson, and was by him placed in command
Of his old brigade, known as the "Stonewal Brig
ade." This was trying position for him. He
was the successor of the great jackson, and the
brigade believed no one capable of supplying his
place; but he soon overcame all objection, and they
learned to love him and respect him second only to
Jackson. .
He shared with the army Of the Valley all its
hardships and victories and narrowly escaped with
his life, having two horses shot under him-and af-
ter having safely passed through the bard fought
battles about Richmond, he was doomed to fall in
the battle Of Southwestern Mountain.
He leaves a widow and several children to mourn
bis untimely death, at their home in his native Ma
ryland. The remains of one brother rest on the
plains of Mexlco where he fell in defence of the old
government-but others, with many friends, are in
theservice Of the Confederacy and will avenge his
death.

North.Carolina and Georgia.

The following just remarks, we copy from the
correspondent of the Savannah Republican:
1T is buttthe simplest justice to add, that the
regiments from North Carolina and Georgia bore
the brunt of the battle. All the troops did we'll,
and those from State fought bravely as those
from another; but such were the numbers and posi-
tons of the regiments from the States named, that
they were called upon to bear the heat and bur-
then Of the hay" No Georgian or North Caro-
linian has ntimsted anything Of thekind to ne but
hear it the Cars in the Streets at the corners,
and in the hotels-indeed, wherever go-snd not
from acquantances merely, but from strangers, and
those who witnessed the conflict If this fact has
not been made to appear before it has been because
the troops from those States had no one here to
sound the trumpet Of their praises if they bad
not modesty preferred to let their deeds speak for

The YANKEE TAxEs.-The severe and onerous
taxes to which the Northern people have to submit
for the prosecution of this unrghteous and barba.
rous war; exhibits more fully their complete ensla ve-
ment to party and fanaticism than any thing else
Among the many severe and odous features of the
bill is that which obliges the holder of every check
draft deed, or conveyance of any kind to- pay stamp
duty on the paper from two cents to 81. How de-
generate! Their fathers broke the chains of British
oppression rather than submit to tho odious 'samp

our government should have resisted all overtures
for an exchange of prisoners until Lincoln released
all such citizens and ceased his unjust war upon
them We observe that Lieut. Council, of Virginia,
and Thos. a. Jordan, of North Carolins, have re-
Gently died at Rip Raps. Mr.. j. was an excellent
