Wit- nese knows # livery-stable keeper named Coolry; his stables are corner of ‘(thand @ streets; withess used to pat his horses up there during the summer, Here the question was asked the witness if he recollected having & conversation with Mr. Cooley, in the latter part of Tune, perhaps in Mr. ©.’s etubles, in relation to his (witness’s) business, The question was objected to by the Judge Advocnte. The couusel for the accused stated that he wan'ed to lay a foundation for contradicting the wityess. The judge Advocate.—The question is not Ppertivens to the issoe, nor is it connected with anything drawn out in the direct examina. tion ‘onnsel for the accused.— We expect to show that in @ certain conversation at the stables of Cooley the witness said that be was employed in carrying goods back ward and torward, and giving tn ormation, and that with nim the principal object was to make mouey—that he was indifferent whetber he favored one party crthe other In reply to the question how it happened that his information always proved smi-s, and that we never succeeded in getting Mosby, he said the Government siways de- pendeo on bis informaton, and was always an hour behindnand. This ts for the purposes of showing that the man is mfamous, and ts not to he trusted even by rebels—least of all by the Goverument of the United States.

In a tew mo- ments Mr. J. hngen came up to where I was and we there 1 con versation together, Tafsrwards waited over to the end of the counter. About this t me Mr. Heunage asked Mr. Jobncon if he could take such and such a price for tne goods Mr. Worsely remarked that be eonld buy the same goods in Baitamore fora ereatdeal less. Mr Jonnson said that he could not cell them for less than Mr. Heanage bag agreed to. I do rot remember the price at which Mr. Henmage offered them, but be Worrely’s wae $2.

Atrthe sale Mr. Worseley remarked to Mr. Hennage, « Now you trea: me with these roods like you do all oibers, when I leave here don’t you seilthem to aby body else I want you to put them in the cellar, where they can’t be troubled by any Mr, Hennage rephed, “What you have tought, you shall have,” and added, “fo ‘oblige you I wil! doas yeu request.” I do not Kuow 4s thes= were the ex- act words, but something to that effect.

I bave been in other retail and commission stores and sold suck goods. I sold such in Johason & Satton’s store as much as tour years ago. Never berrd apy conversation’ betwern Wors- ley ard defendants in which Worsley told them who he wa: and what he was doing any more than that Mr. Jobnsou frequently re- mnarked that he would not s+il him any more to carry across the Long Bridge than his pase required or something of that kind. This was in the presence of Worsley. These transac- lions were open like all other ordinary basi- pers transactions. Worsiey’s bundles were always (except they were very lurge, and he offen mace very large purenises,) putin the bundle depot, the same as tho e of other customers. When the purchase was an mnusually large one. the bondles were Placed in a box and the boxes marked in ihe estore. Witness has seen orders that Worsley bonght. 1 do not know anythixg about where the orders came trom. only know that tne orders bad the names of cer’ain partes on them, and as far as 1 could understaud, (I do not Know whetner the others understocd differently or not) the orders came from parties just across the Long Bridge, with- in the Federal lines. I kuow a Mr. Curry who lived in the Federal lines, bought goods and bad them marked in that way, and I thought it was the same with them. Cross examination by the Judge Advocate: Wirness thinks be rst saw Worsely sometime during last April, May,or June Caonot say positively that 1 ever eoid goods to him. Isold bim some jittle boxes containing checkers, Gominoes, Chess, And euch things which were senton trom New York for me to sell. Noth- ing was said as to where they weretogo. Wit- ness never remarked that “He would maks @ #000 thivgofit.’ This was what 1 said to him, “Tboese thines are very cheap.” There are par- les selling the same things her+at $5 a hox and I think they are a good thing for soldiers, 1 offerea them to bim for $25, but afterwards consented to tnke 21. 1 told him they would s+ il for trom &. to #5 a box, and I thought that was pretty good protit. I never said he could get $i0a box from Mosby’s men. Never talked to bim about going to Richmond. The last time I saw him I said to him “Mr. Wors- ley if you can get me @pass to go with yoa I think I can be ot some assistance to you. Be- sides 1 can take several descriptions of articles alorg with me which will be of some use to the soldiers. 1 supposed of course he was not go- ing through the lines or I sgould never have seked him for the pass. Worsley suid “I do not know about this thing, ‘but I will try aud see what I can do for you.” He added, “Butif there is any money to be made 1 want to make it myself” This conversation tock place atter I bad sold him the boxes. He had been across the bridge and retarned I do not think in that conversation he told me about having eeen the fight up in the Valley. Did not hear him speak of haying seen the flash of the guns from where he was. If he said any- thing abont the fight to me, it has escaped my memory. This conversation took place between Gefendant’s store and the Frauglin House, which is opposite. Worsley said he had sold five boxes of the games at $5 a box, and that was nore than the amount he was to pay me for the dozen games. I supposed he sold them to the soldiers, but I did not kuow. I think it took him about ten days to make his trip. That was what he said. I knew of bis bringing back tobacco for the goods, ou one occasion Ren I went around to a steam bakery with him he showed me some tobacco which be said ne had brongbt down. That was vn his last trip that lsaw him. I do not know how many pounds there was in a box, further than there was as much as I conld lift in each box. Does not thing there was 160 of these boxes. Didn’t hear bim say there were eight tons. There were about fifteen or twenty boxes opened in pres- ence of witness. Worsley did not say any- thing about Culpeper to me. 7 REBUTTING TESTIMONY. _ Wm. H, Perkins was sworn by the prosecn- tion, and testified tbat he lived inthe First Ward, on Pennsylvania avenue, between i9th and 20th streets. Witness kuows Thomas W. Johnson. Have heard a li tiv, very little, what his reputation is among people generally. Have heard trom prople in Juhuson’s neighborhood, where he formerly lived. Have not conversed particularly with those who lived in the neighbcrhood, but have beard conversations. Could not say how many: perhaps three or four, or halfa dozen. From tbat knowledge witness Knows what his general reputation is; that reputation was that he was Southern dis- posed, in favor of the South—disloyal, of course. Cross examined by the accused :—It is some- thing like fitteeu or twenty years since witness had any personal acquaiutance with these par- ties. Witness knew nothing of them himeelf for the last three or four years. Have heard the neighbors say the parties were disloyal. Sometimes one neighbor, and sometimes ane other Could not name any one person. Heard it spoken of since the war commenced, person- ally st the cornere of the streete, when groups would appear and talk about these matters. Wuness’ name is Perkins. Is a white man. (In answer toa question who and what he was.) Has beep Joyal ever since the cvm- meneement of the war, Witness does not sap- pose there isa maa in the country who will come forward and say he is disloval. He was just about as loyal as you find anybody made. Did not Enow how he got here asa witness. He was summoned, but did not know who by. Did pot tell anybody of his knowledge of thesee parties The witness guessed that it they knew anything they would know these parties to be disioval. Everybody that knows witness knows what he is. Have not spoken with Mr. Sutton for six or eight years. There is no bad feeling between Mr. S. and witness. Has not spoken to Sutton because he has not treat- ed witness right in matiers of cealines Wit. ness conid speak to him at any time itness thought Sutton wanted to take advantage of him, and he would not snifer it. Witness would have nothing to do with him since. Have had no conversation with Mr. Johnson, bat witness is on speaking terms with him, Witness does not carry on any business now. Did carry on the dry goods busiuvess, but sold outto Mr. Johnson fitteen or twenty years ago. Geo. B. Fillebrown, a witness for the proseca- ton, testified that he lived at the corner of H pnd 20th streets. Knows fhemas W. Johnson. Has known him ten years, Probably longer. Have heard the neighhors express their opin- ion of Mr. Thomas W. Johnsen for loyalty or disloyal y; He is generally represented as being dirloyal. Cress-examined by defence:—Have heard Mr. Johnson spoken of as dieloyal by several gentlemen. Have heard Mr. Lem’! Williams speak of him. Mr. Williamsis a cabinet ma- ker in the Firet Ward, Cannot give the date, but was about three months ago, at the corner ot Penneylvanisavenue and 20th street. Wit- ness remembers that it was on the corner of that street, because he is in business there. Has no recollection who was present besides Mr. Williams.

Witness does not night—pray-r mee! go to prayer meeting, and does not belong to the church, (this ir answer to a question.) Do not know who beard the remarks besides Mr. Williams. Witness might have heard a good make remarks, but cannot recollect any one. ky the Judge Audvocate-—It was previous to the raid. Witnees could not tell that it was about the time Early was coming up. At that time people pretry generally discussed each other’s loyalty. It was a thing pretty gen- erally spoken of among the neighbors. and that is the way witness came to talk about it, ea “Madame, agreat many pe 9 were dieturbed at the concert last night by the ory- ing of your bal «Well, I do wonder thet such people will go to concerts!
