Mrs CHIsoLM, who was summoned
week ago to Jackson, Miss, to attend the
Federal Court, returned to this city last
week. She represents matters rs completely
under the control of the despeadoes who
perpetrated the horrible tragedy on her hus-
band and children. Before testifying she
was warned by the Distrct-Attorney not to
say one word except in answer to questions
II she alluded to any event calculated to
prove the conspiracy by reference to the
murders subsequently committed, she was
Immediately arrested in her testimony and
not allowed to 20 on. If she mentioned
anything said by her husband she was told
the court did not wish to know anything of
the private communications between her
and her husband When she stated that
shots were fired at the house and into the
house, which she knew because she heard
the bullets striking it, and because she sent
her son JOHSNIE to the roof to see the bull
let holes, and he reported a number, she
was again stopped and asked if she saw
these bullet holes herself Her reply being
that as she was not an expert in climbing
she hah not, the whole testimony
was pronounced insufficient. Many of the
rabble who were discharging their firearms
into the barn and hiding by night. with
their hands on their guns in the surround
ing trees were witnesses for the defense and
some of these same persons are on the grand
jury who have TO find bill for the indict-
ment Of themselves for the subsequent muir
der when that case comes up. The Judge
charged the jury and he warned them that
unless conspiracy was proven, which was
not, and unless Mr. CHIsOLM was proven IL
qualified voter, which was not, they could
not but acquit, which they did in five min
utes. Judge LEA, the District-AttOrney,
seemed TO he entirely Oveawed by the Illl-
ing spirit, and said that for him to pursue
any other course would be construed rs a
spirit Of persecution against the Democrats
Judge WARE, the Assistant District AttOr-
ney, was very indignant, but pOwerlcss,
held back by the Distrct-AttOrney and the
judge. The remark was made by some who
were present that the manner in which the
Judge and District-AttOrncy conducted the
case was the best defense those men had
The idea Of Judge CHlsOIM not being Il

Arrangement made With ind;v;duals com
mnnities or con,mon,vealtbs
II now turns ont that there was 4 bar
pain relating 10 the marsbalship of Geor
pia. in which the usual measure of bad
faith was involved. Mr. EDWIN L. THOMAS
was a candidate for the marshalship Of that
State. and 80 also was Colonel O. p. FrTZsrM-
MONS. A bargain was entered into between
these two Rentlemen-so Mr.. THOMAS as
serts over his own signaturc-under which
he withdrew from the contest. He was ap-
preached by Colonel FITZsIMMoNs and of
fered an interest in the Office of Marshal if
he would bring to his support certain very
influential friends who were for him against
the field, and who had expressly declined
to aid Colonel FITzsIMMoNs because they
were so committed. After withdrawing his
name from the contest he made an express
agreement with Colonel FITZsIMMoNs that
on the understanding referred to he would
whose aid he regarded not only
valuable but INDISPENSABLE. This part
of the compact was faithfully kept, and
these distinguished and influential names
were carried to Colonel FIrzsIMMoNs sup
port After this gentleman received the
appointment of United States Marshal,
largely owing, as Mr.. THOMAS believes, to
the support of his friends. he quietly and
patiently awaited the fulfllment of Colonel
FITZsIMMoNs' promises. In due time, and
not till then, Mr. THOMAS addressed Col
onel FIrzsrMMoNs a respectful note, calling
his attention t. the facts as here detailed
To this note there came no reply. Another
was addressed to the Colonel, to which there
was no response then another and another,
