STORY OF CRUELTIEs.
the LATEST NEWS FROM GEORGIA.
Description Of q Rebel Prison in Tex
as-Horribie Story of Cruelty.

| BY Union Line, cor. Monroe and water Stsl
new YORK, August l8 The Tribune s
Tyler, Texas, correspondent describes
Camp Ford, near that place, as prison
pen second only to Andersonville in the
barbarism and atrocities inflicted upon
Union prisoners for two years. The cor
respondent says: Shot, scourged, beat
en- and tortured, these prisoners were too
far off and too closely guarded for their
groans to be heard by those in the out
side world. Their sad story only became
known from their own shrunken lips at
ter they had been exchanged 1t is a
stockaded inclosure of, judge, eight or
ten acres. This estimate includes all
adiucts of the prison. 1t is situated on
the side of sandy slope, at the lower
edge of which, and just within the stock
ade, is a spring that supplied water to
the prisoners.
The inclosure, which seems to have
been enlarged at different times to meet
the requirements of the rebel captures, is
filled with huts and shanties of almost
every imaginable shape, and constructed
of every available material. Two bar
rels, one on top of the other. form the
chimney of hut, made of brushes, the
limbs of which have been pressed to-
gether and plastered with mud. Near
the point at which we entered there Is q
number of gravelike mounds scattered
over the space of about one acre. | at
first thought they were graves, but on
examining found that they were excava-
tions in the ground which had been COW
ered, first with bushes and then with dirt.
They had been made by those of our men
who had been captured last, and for
whom there was no room in huts above
ground. Every where are blackened
spots which show where fires had former
ly been, by means of which those who
had no shelter at all cooked their daily
mite of meal The cooking utensils
which they had used are strewn about,
as | noticed. In one Of the huts they
were piled up with care to wait further
use.
Toward the upper side of the inclosure,
where there seems to have been prison
for the confinement of offenders, are sew
eral stumps, on the tops of which those
who violated any of the prison rules were
made to stand and mark time for perhaps
a whole day, while the guard had i'm
perative orders to shoot any one that
stopped or fell off from exhaustion.
The whole scene, with it's associations,
is horrid illustration of the inhumanity
that originated and carried OH the rebel
lion until its overthrow
