EDITOR NATIoNAL TRIBUNE: In your paper
Of tho 9th ult. is n Random Shot from John
Preston, Sergeant, Go. X, 18th Ohio, nquiriug
about train of soldiers sidc-traclsed at Column
bus, o., March 30, 1869. and wishing for tho
facts concerning the firing upon them. The
facte arc these: Tho soldiers referred TO were
part of the Ninth Corps under Gen. Burnside.
They were en- route from the Army of the Po-
tomac to Kentucky, and we're the men who
went to Mississippi, under Gen. Parke, in June,
1863 To- reinforce Gen. Grant and assist in
capturing Pembortons army at Vicksburg.
When the troops arrived Mt Columbus they
were kindly received by the people, aud fur
nished with bread and coffee. The men had
been allowed good deal of liberty in tho va
rious towns and cities where they had stopped
on tho way through the great States of Penn
ylvania and Ohio, and everybody had seemed
glad to see them. The train was ide.trac!icd,
and remained several hours. Several of the
men stroIlcd away from tho railroad 10 sec the
Capitol building and other sights, when Prov
ost-gnard on duty in the city, detailed from
tho il5th Ohio $50 we were told !, q new Tcgi-
mcnt without any notice having been given to
the officers OF tho brigade that the men mast
he kept in the station, with arrogant aud un-
necessary force undertook 10 drive these mau
back with tho bayonct. Being met with good
naturcd bautcring, tho cowarlly recruits
opened fire on these uuarncd men. Samucl
wright OF 10. T. 2lSJ Mass, ana 4 private IN
the 5lst Pa. were killed and several others
wounded. This nhuman and brutal outrage
might have provoked 4 fearful revenge if the
officers of tho brigade had not cxertcd them
selves 10 the utmost 10 calm the men, who
would have shown their Western comrades Ut
Columbus that they were paid Sl3 4 month to
defend themselves from just such towards as
composed the proyosteuarJ Of Columbus.
As!far as IS known by the 2lst Mass no Off
cial notice was ever taken of this disgusting
outrage. II the officer in charge Of that Pro-
vost guard, or whoever gave the order TO fire
TO that guard, is alive he can now apologize to
his comrades from Massachusetts, il ne chooses,
for the murderous outrage he committed in
giving that orler.-GEoEGE =. HAWKES.,
