Confederate Rccords.

The War Department has ap-
pointed Gen. Marcus j. Wright, of
st. Louis, an agent for the purpose
of collecting and securing for the
use of the Government such records
of the late war, on the Confederate
side, as can be obtained. In order
that all may see and understand the
movement, we print below Gen.
Wright's circular:
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1878-07-27

Springfield Record.

We learn from those of our citi-
zens who have business fin other
counties of our State, that a general
opinion prevails to the effect that
the people of Springfield were the
parties who took the above named
prisoners from our Jail and hanged
them. A more glaring falsehood
than that could not have been cir
culated against any people. Our
citizens, to a man, are law-abiding I;
they would spurn the idea of taking
the law into their own hands. Be
sides all of this, there was not a man
i'm the least disguised-and who is
more likely to know every man i'm
our county than Sheriff Jones He
is a truthful gentleman, and he says
there was not familiar face in the
crowd. The deed was committed
when our people were asleep. The
noise awOke some Of them, and they
arose from their beds to see what
was up. They were held at bay
while the prisoners were being
taken from Jail, and none Of these
recognized q single familiar face.
Now, in justice to our people, we
hope that our exchanges at Clarks-
vile, Nashville, Gallatin, Lebanon,
Ashland City, Tenn, and franklin,
Hopkinsville and Russellville, Ky =,
and all other of our State papers,
who wish to set an innocent people
right before the world, will copy
the above statement.
