President, I am equally opposed to
consolidation OF concentration of pow
er here. under whatever guise or name
they bear; and if the issue is forced
upon us, I shall endeavor to pursue
the same efforts to dissuade from this

say let the same rule be applied. Let
the Constitution be our guide. Let
the preservation OF that and the Union
Of the States be our principal aim. :"
This theory undoubtedly tends 70 give
the South an earlier and larger pos

Of the Republican party. But we
thinl, that the confidence of the presi-
dent, and the bold liberality Of his

there was dead-line, and one of his patients
was killed but he did not see him shot.
He stated the circumstances under which
the prisoners were when Wirz had command
of them, and while he was in the admins
tration OF his duties as surgeon; all the
surgeons came to the conclusion that Capt
Wlrz had full authority over the prison un-
der Gen. Winder; he had seen the chief
clerk of DIR. James bucked and, ,inauiring the
reason, was informed that the punishment
was inflicted by order of Capt. Wirz.-
2MARTIN Il. HOGAN testified as to having
been prisoner at Andersonville the men
there were in miserable condition-as bad
as possibly could be; the men were so thick
that they could hardly elbow their.way; some
lay In their own filth, calling for water and
crying tor food but no attention was paid
to them; he also testified to the miserable
quality of the food and its injurious effects;
such as half-baked corn bread, which was
sour, and the soup, when it was furnished,
was OF an inferior quality men afflicted
with the scurvy would crawl upon the
ground; the sight was horrible; very many
were lnsutticiently clad, and having no shell
ter, burrowed in the ground as to hounds.
he was brought back to prison by their a
gency.; he had seen Cart. Wirz with
hounds, trying to strike the track of an es-
capped prisoner; for attempting to escape
from prison about the Sth OF October, 1864,
after the most obscene abuse from Captain
Wnz, he was fastened by the neck and feet
and renamed there for -6S hours: he heard
Capt. Wirz give orders that he should not
have food; but he did get food from some
parolled comrades, who stole it for him he
had seen three comrades put in the stocks
at the same time; one man was put in the
stocks because he asserted his manhood. by
representing the abuse of Confede-
rate soldier; when the. prisoners were
being removed from Andersonvil!e to Milien
the witness saw Capt. Wirz take a man by
the collar because he could not walk faster
the man was so worn by discdse he could
/ not; throwing the man on his back Nho
stamped upon him with his feet he eaw
the man bleeding, and he died short time
after; in the dissecting rosm he saw stu
dents in the pursuit of knowledge saving
open the skulls of. deceased prisoners and
opening the bodies.
j. ID. KIEsER testified that he was in the
United States service, captured, and sent tc
Andersonville; he arrived their with the
first party of 400 men; there was sufficient
accommodation then, but as others were ad-
ded affairs became bad and the men began
to be afflicted with diarrhea, disentary
scurvy and gangrene they lay on the
ground, and were not protected from the
weather: in April or May, 1864, supplies
were received from the North some mouldy
bread or cake was thrown over the dead line;
one man reached beyond the line for piece
of this mouldy bread or cake, when the guard
fired, and shot the man through the head !;
he saw another man after he had been shot
in the abdomen; he had seen men in the
chain gang with iron collars round their
necks; some of them were thus punished
for trying to make their escape.

Will They Escape 2

The London Times suggests the possibility
OF escape from the cholera III England. Its
course from the East towards the West has
been marked by excentricities, which
prove that it has not advanced from the sea
coast into the interior as yet In single in
stance. 1t appears abruptly at Alexandria,
thence along the coast to Damietta, then at
Smyrna, and along the Mediterranean till it
reached Marseilles. The Times says, 'upon
summary of the evidence, we come to this,
not that an Asiatic pestilense is advancin g
upon us across Europe, but that there has
been an extraordinary outbreak of cholera
in the basin of the Mediterranean. Within
the basin of the Mediterranean no shore has
escaped beyond it, no cholera has appear
ed. The latest intelligence reports panic
from Wallachia and Moldavia, but the dis
ease had not yet declared itself in those
provinces, though it is obviously probable
that it might creep into the Black sea and
make the circuit of those coasts also. 1t
will not do to rely upon theories when the
causes which control the course of this fatal
disease are so little known. 1t should be
assumed that it is likely to visit not only
Western Europe but America, and every
effort which can mitigate its effects and
hasten its departure, should be made in all
our cities and towns. Cleanliness, general
and personal, public and individual, should
be rigidly adopted. This will not only
make cholera comparatively innoxious, but
it will, by contributing to the general purity
of our cities, exempt them from many other
diseases equally fatal, but not dreaded to
the same extent.
