The TRIAL OF WIRz still continues and
seems likely to continue some time longer
but the testimony now taken is not simply
on the account OF Wirz. Ii is the intention
of the government to get all the facts of the
Andersonville bsrbarities, and the evideuce
now taken may cause other men than wirz
to swing.
The trial was commenced August 2. The
prosecution examined l25 Witnesses and oc-
cupied % days, the record making 1868 fool
soap pages. The defense was opened Sep
tember 25. The number of witnesses SUBJ
penaed is LOG, Of whom II have been eI-
ahmed thus far and IS have reported them
selves.
On Saturday Col. Chapman made an argu.
ment to show that the testimony OF Gcnersls b
Lee, Johnston, Howell, Cobb. Secretary NAL
lory, Col Ould, DR. Moore, and other dis
tinguished rebels. who had been subpenaed
by the defence, should not be received by the
Court.
Mr.. Baker objected strenuously to this
and the question was not finally decided
DIR. Joseph Jones, Professor in the Medi-
cal College Of Georgia, was placed % the
stand and produced . report which he made
under permission Of the rebel authorities,
concerning the diseases at Andersonvlle.-
His object was " illustrate the facts relative
to the gangrene, material, forces, camp, and
other diseases. The report shows frightful
mortality. the number Of deaths being at one
period as large in the stockade a. in the nos-
pital. lie describes the mso - miserable in
the extreme, mere skeletons, and covered
with vermin. Some of them cured their
own government for refusing to accede to
an exchange Of prisoners.
The trial was then adjourned to Thursday
morning.
