The WirE Trfsl-Subpenns for Cen.
Lee, Howell Cobb and othcrs.
WAsHNaTos, September 3O.-The
trial of Wirz is expected to last for
several weeks longer. The examina-
tion Of witnesses for the defence pro-
ceeds slowly, apparently with a view
to establish the fact that Wirz was
sick and absent from Andersonville
when many of the alleged atrocities
were committed; that he was not re-
sponsible for the vaccination which
resulted so disastrously; that he
never maltreated anybody, nor acted
wilfully and maiciously; and that,
although the rules of the prison were
stringent, and there was q lack of
physical comforts, the cold Dutch
Captain" as his counsel calls him,
was not responsible to the extent con-
tanned in the charges word, that
the evidence for the Government will
not Justify his conviction.
A subpoena for Gen. Robert E. Lee
was sent off this morning, and it is
expected that he will arrive here in
the middle of next week. Gen.
Howell Cobb. and Ex-Governor
Brown, Of Georgia, Gen. Joe John
| ston, and Col. Robert Ould, are also
summoned to appear as witnesses for
the defence. It is understood the
last named will testify in relation to
the question of the exchange of pri-
soners, and is expected to show that
it was not the fault of the Rebel Gov
ernment that it was not sooner eff
feeted.
At the examination to-day, Capt.
| Wright, ex-quartermnster at Ander-
sonvllle, testified that he succeeded
Il. B. Winder at that post; that the
tents of his regiment were taken for
prison hospital purposes; that it was
| impossible to procure lumber, and
that he had never heard of furloughs
being granted Confederate soldiers
because they shot Union prisoners.
Judge Hall, of Georgia, witness for
the prosecution, was called for the
defence, and testified that Wirz had
applied to him to prosecute some
persons who had been appropriating
provisions, &C., intended for the
prisoners, but he was unable to dis
cover the culprits. Dogs, he said.
were commonly usn in Georgia for
tracking felons, vio-.te1s of the law,
and runaway slaves; but by the laws
OF the State no one could be pursued
BY vicious or savage dogs. Col.
Chapman objected to this, and resent
ca 1t as an insult to the army to have
Union soldiers classed with felons.
The Court then adjourned till Mon-
day.
