Nazareth Allen testified that he was for a time in the Gonfederate service at Andersonville, and was a guard there, attached to the Third Georgia reserves; he knew ‘that Captain Wirz was commander of the prison; he had seen men in the stocks and in the chain gang; one man died in the stocks; he was thus punished for trying to escape; on one occasion a prisoner stepped out of the ranks toask Captain Wirz to transfer him to another ‘mess, when Wirz immediately ordered him back, “urs- ‘Sng him, and threatening to shoot him; the witness tes- tified at length to the filthy condition of the prison; the stench was so bad while he was on duty in the stockade that i as sick pretty much all the time; he ‘and others madé complaints to their officers on the sub- ject; a man who was sick, lying on the ground, ‘calling in his distress for his mother, asked the witness for tent materials, but he could not give the articles, as it ‘was against orders; the prisoners were deprived of vege- tables, including onions which they had purchased at the ate; he knew that hounds were kept at the prison to scant those who had escaped. Cross-examined by the defence—Witness was con- scripted into the Confederate service; he had never seen any of the prisoners shot, nor did’he shoot any of them; he never had orders ‘to shoot prisoners who crossed the “dead line; the hounds were common lantation dogs, and not ‘particularly ugly or savage; he Bad never een a man bitten by them. Captain J. Heath, who had been on duty in the An- dersonville prison in the Confederate service, testified that in August, 1864, Wirz sent thirteen men to him to De ironed; they were brought by a provost marshal at- ‘ached to General Winder’s headquarters; the next day Awelve of the men were ironed; one of them had got away when the hounds were put'on his scent; the man ‘was discovered up a tree and a pistol was fired at him; Wirz commanded im to come down; the man ask that the dogs might not be permitted to bite him; the dogs, however, attacked him when he descended, biti at his legs; Wirz could have taken the prisoner, but di hot call the hounds off; the witness had seen the priso: knock down two or thice person a ment of the prisoners comenced because one of them tried to get out in a squad to which he did not belong. ‘The witness was cross-examined at some length by the ying, among other things, before the stockade prison Ts v nt thither there would not be room enough for them. Tho Court too When the Court re. ber of the Court, a recess from one till two o’clock. sembled, General Thomas, a mem- appeared in yesterday's Evening Star, as follows:—“ The records of the Andersonville prison, captured by Gen. Wilson and furnished by the War Department to the expedition sent to Andersonville by Secretary Stanton to Jay out acemetery and mark the graves of our soldiers ‘who died in the prison in that place, have turned up missing. Since the r turn of the party one of the clerks of the Quartermaster’s Department, ‘who accompanied ‘he expedition, and in whose hands the records were Jast seen, has becn placed under arrest by the military ‘authorities until he-can give a satisfactory account of 4he disposition made of them. It is thought by some that if the records were stolen instead of lost, it was for the purpose of preventing their use as evidence against ‘Wirz, the keeper of the Andersonville prison, now being ried by court-marual here.” General Tuomas said he wanted the prisoner tried fair- ly, and therefore asked whether it was true that the records had been lost or stolen. Colonel Carrman replied that the hospital records and the register of deaths, with one exception, were in charge of the clerk to the commission. He did not know on what the article in the Sar was based. The govern- ment intended to mtroduce the records at the proper time. ‘Mr, Baxen said he knew nothing about them. Colone! Ciurman remi d that the allegation in the Star was eo indefinite t it was impossible to tell whe- ‘ther the papers alluded to have ever been in the posses- sion of the government or not, He repeated, the hospi- dal and death registers were not stolen, and would be antroduced at the proper time. Mr. Baxgr knew nothing about the statements in the mewspapers. He had read them. So far as the counsel Yor the prisoner was concerned they wouid be happy to ‘have produced all records bearing upon the Anderson- ville prison. He asked that all the prisoner ever did be Jaid before the court. Colonel Curpman said the article could not relate to the papers in his custody, Mr. Baker asked, if not inconsistent with the Judge Advocate’s duty, that the records should be placed where 4he counsel for the de“ence could Lave access to them Colonel CuirmaN—If you can convinces me that Tam not capable of taking care of them I will do so. Mr. Bakur—We made the request with the proviso that ‘A it could be done consistently with your duty. \,, Colonel Crmpmax—That is another question afr Baxer—That was all we asked in all sincerity for our client. Colonel Carpmay—It is not now consistent with my duty to produce the papers. mi ne request civilly for informa 1 the papers very much, TESTIMONY OF WILLIAM Dit Wil iam Dillard, tate in th f army at Andersonville, te prison and the miserabie mn of the prisoners, owing to the want of the ssaries of life and from other canses. He gave facts in connection with men in athe chain gang, or hunted by hounds. TESTIMONY OF CALVIN HONEYCUTH. Calvin Honeycuth, who was also in the rebel service at Andersonville, said he saw Captain Wirz draw his pistol nd threaten’ to shoot a man who was sick for not straightening up in line. Prisoners attempting to escape were hunted by hounds. He saw one who Was torn in the leg by them. Another man was whipped on the bare ‘back with a stick, because he blacked his face and at- tempted to escape with a gang of negroes. TESTIMONY OF JAMES MAHAN. i James Mahan, who was also in the Con‘ederate army, ‘and on duty at Andersonville, tystified that he and the ‘Assistant Provost Marshal took thirteen men to the Dlacksmith's hag | to have iron collars and chains fast- ‘ened on them. He received his verbal orders from Cap- ‘ain Wirz, through an orderly sergeant; one of the mea, called “Frenchy,” however, made his escape. Captain ‘Wirz said when he heard of it, “That damned Frenchy ‘thas escaped again ;”’ and he sent for the dogs, which got ‘on the trail of the man, who was captured near the stream. Wirz got off his horse and went alongside of the dogs. The witness judged it was Wirz who fired the pis- @ol at the man; the man’s trowsers were torn by the do He did not know whether the flesh was injured. yess had neard Wirz remark that bh ‘ished all the prisoners were in hel! and himself with them. The witnesses above named were cross-exam\ned at fiength. The last one said it was a laborious and vexa- ious task to take care of the prisoners, and he didn't abink that any one would be ambitious w have the situa- m, TESTIMONY OF JUDGE HAL JIndge Daniel Hall, of Georgia, residing mues from ‘Andersonville, testified:—He ‘frequently visited the ‘vicinity of the prison in December, 1864; the place was @o crowded that there really seemed to be no room for more; over Captain Wirz’ offices was a rign bearing these ‘words:—“Commandant of the Interior Prison;’ white there be saw him draw requisitions for rations; the act of the Confederate Con, required one tenth of the farm products to be delivered to the government and paid tn as tax; the act was generally complied with; the supplies were gathered at Oglethorpe, which is ten miles Srom Andersonville. Mr. Baker, in the cross-examination, asked the wit- ness whether he knew how the prison came to be so crowded. The witness replied that he only knew from what General Winder told him—viz., that the prison was bu It for ten thousand only, but that the rushing of ad ditional prisoners from Libby, Belle Istand and other po nts nearer Richmond, in consequence of Dablgren’s and Kilpatrick's raid, over crowded the prison; General Winder was proceeding to entarge the prison, but he Tound he could not procure sufficient timber and labor. ‘The General informed him that he had impressed ail the sawmills he could, and was unable to furnish ail the pri- foners with shelter. The witness was asked by General Winder to contract for two houses at Oglethorpe, in which to place some of the sick from Andersonville, but be could not succeed in renting the premises.

CITY INTELLIGENCE. Arnscan Crvruzation Socrsty.—The sixth annual re- port of the officers of the African Civilization Society has just been published, It includes the financial and other operations to the Sist of May last, From the pamphlet | it seems that the society already has several flourishing schools at Washington and Georgetown, D.

The building is situated on Dean strect, near Troy avenue, Ninth ward, Brooklyn, New York. The following is from the report of the General Superintendent of Schools:—We have had in our employ, more or less, for the last year, twentyfour teachers, laboring amongst our hitherto oppressed brethren, and doing incalculable good, We have partially and wholly sustained ten day and night schools, number- ing from fifty to two hundred and twenty scholars, ‘About ten hundred children have becn instructed in the schools under our control. Tho largest and most influen- tial school is at the city of Washington, It numbers about two hundred and thirty scholars, with three efficient teachers. From the report made to me by the Principal of the male department, it appears that mora than two- thirds of the scholars are comparatively good readers. “It is astonishing,” says the report, ‘to see_ how rapidly they progress in’ their several studies, As a general thing, the scholars are tolerably well clothed and cleanly, so much go that Ido not bave to speak of any neglect only in a general way.” A Lapy’s Exrenimnog 1 Texas.—It is announced that Mre, M. C. Walling, a distinguished Texan lady and able lecturer, will deliver an address on Wednesday evening, at the Cooper Institute, upon her ‘Two years’ experience in Texas during the war.” She will also touch upon the work to be performed in the Lone Star State before it can be called fully restored to the federal Union, Mre. Walling brings with her the best of recommenda- tions as a speaker and a refined lady from such men as ex.Governor Yates and Governor R. J. Oglesby, of Tili- nois, and Governor Morton, of Indiana, with an endorse- ment by Governor Fenton, of this State. Tux Heatep Term Rerorinc.—Yesterday was another instalment from the dog days, let loose upon poor mortal man for sins committed or virtues omitted, and to vividly remind him of the torments he may be prepared to endure in tho future, unless he mend his ware, repent | and become Christianized.

The | Little fellow was taken up and conveyed home, where he Frederick: Nash, conductor, and Bar. ney Melntes, driver of the car, were arrested by officer | SicWatters, of the Twenty-sixth precinct, and taken before Justice Dowling.

IxsuLatsp Texearara Comraxy.—The lines of the In- sulated Telegraph Company, whose offices are at 78 and 80 Broadway, are now open for business between this city and New Haven, Middielown, Norwich, Providence and Boston. ‘This line will algo soon be open to Philadelphia, | Baltimore and Washington, Nitiio’s THEATRE FRE—ARREST ON BUSPICION OF AR son.—It will be recollected that Niblo’s theatre was fired | on Sunday night, the 2st of May last. Facts and cir- cumstances elicited at the time by Fire Marshal Baker's investigation, showed pretty conclusively that he fire was one of incendiarism, and that a young man named ant property men, | who had béen dscharged a few days prior to the fire, ‘was suspected of having fired the premises out of re- | venge. He had been detected, it seems, in taking some of the property from the property room without permis- sion, which was the cause of his being dismissed from the theatre. Subsequently he came to the theatre under the influence of liquor, and made threats that ho would get square with three of them, naming the parties that caused his discharge. The place where the fire was first discovered—in the carpenter's shop and stairs leading to this shop—shows most conclusively that the party setting fire was well acquainted with all the localities about the theatre. Since the fire James McDonough has been ab- sent from the city, detective Farley having been in | search of him learned that the day after the fire Mc- Donough left the city im a hurry. Yesterday detective | Farley met jonough in the street, and took him into | custody on the charge of setting fire to the theatre. Thi Fire Marshal took the whole matter before Police Justice Dowling, who named next Tuesday morning, at ten o'clock, as the time for entering into an examination of the case. In the meantime McDonough is in the Tombs, Ixciruent Fing in Nassav Strext Conticvocs To THE Henanp Ovvicr,—At half-past eight o'clock last evening officer Watora, of the Second precinct, perceived a puff of fire and smoke issue from a window in the second story of the building No, 106 Nassau street, corner of Ann, and in immediate contiguity to the Hxrap office. The room is oceupied by Mr. Thomas D. Hurst, a young German stereotyper, who has just moved in, and was em- ployed late last evening tn fitting up his caste and ma- chinery. In his burry when leaving he omitted to extinguish the fire, and also left some papers and combustible matters upon the furnace platform. These, naturally enough, ignited, and in a few minutes the sur. rounding iron implements and woodwork were much heated and ready to burst forth ina blaze, when somo forty of the insurance force, together with a detail from the Herato fire corps, burst open the door and cast out into ‘the street the burning ents, thus averting what threatened to be a destructive fre, The first. story of the building is used by T. Reid as a boot store, and the upper stories are printing offices. The stereotyper had no insurance, The police were on the ground, the engines of the Henatn office and Fire Department were out, and the usual furor characterized the thunderimg arrivals of the fire companies, while the amall boys hooted in grief at the abrupt strangling of the incipient conflagration. Among the companies on the round were No. 20 Hose, and engine companies Nos. Fr 38 and 60, as well as the Ann aned Nassau street compa- nies, all of which presented themselves promptly on the epot, well equipped for a successful fray with the flerce element. Sergeant Blair and bis force were also early on duty. Avororn Fine mn Nassau Street.—About six P.M. last evening, a fire occurred in the pocket book factory of M. B. Shadler, on the fourth floog of No, 60 Nassau street, The Insurance Fire Patrol were A mtg A at the eee and put out the fire with but trifling lose, The stock insured for $1,000 in the Williamsburg City Insurance Company. The fire seems to have been caused by the heat of @ chimney flue from the adjoining building.

It is not often that regular land burglars are #0 suc- cessful in their endeavors ag to carry off the safe con- taining the money and valuables that they were unable to penetrate to. But a deed of this character has lately been committed upon the waters adjacent to New York, and up to a late hour last evening nota clue nor a trace of the thieves had been discovered, although every scheme had been tried wo that end. In thus so (ar outstripping their slow-coach companions upon the shore thest aqueous depredators may congratulate themselves, ‘The circumstances attending the case, as far as revealed to shpineny oficiaie in Brooklym, are substantially as fol- It will be recollected that the United States steamer Donegal brought to this port the news of the loss of the Commodore McDonough. Shortly after her arrival sho (the Donegal) was taken to the for some pur- pose, where she lay until the early part of tho present week, when she went to the Cob dock to taxo b some needed supplies, Upon the very morning of her de- parture for the Navy Yard at Brookiyn the astounding discovery was made that the office Paymaster Heury C. Machette had been entered during the night and his iron chest, containing a draft from Washington for a large amount, over three thousand dollars in greenbacks, a number of very valuable papers pertuining to the pay department of the vessel and a @ assortment of fine pocket handkerchiefs boldly and ily abstracted, As the safo weighed rather heavily it was ‘air to presume that more than one man had engaged in the affair. ‘And as there was the usual guard upon the deck, with an ensizn in command, it is supposed that the barglars must have been more than usually well posted as to the lay of the ship, and that they worked away noisclessly and effectively while others slept. The commanding officer of the Donegal at once took such steps as lay in his power to discover who the rozues were and where they had concealed the chest and its contents, Every part of the ship was closely inspected, every hole and cranny where a man could hide away was carefully searched, but up to last evening nothing had been heard, excepting that the safe and the money had disappeared.” Payment was stopped upon the dratt, is that portion of their booty cam be of no use to the thieves, Proper sub-marine apparatus was procured and a search of the river bottom instituted, in hopes that it might be discovered thatthe safe bad merely been thrown over- board. It will prove a fruitless task, without doubt. Commodore Gregory has ordered an official investiga- tion into the affayr, to take place at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, at no very distant day, when all that is known of it will be mace pate Even as it is, the officers appear willing to reveal all they know of the matter, but, unhaj pily, they know nothing that will throw the least light upon the whereabouts of safe, money or robbers. A similar occurrence to the above took place at Memphis, Tennessee, in the summer of 1862, when Pay- master L. Curry’s safe, upon the iron-clad gunboat Baron Dekalb, was taken upon the fantail of the steamer, the door blown open with powder, or forced open by the power of a crow bar, and its contents, about five thou- gand dollars, taken away. These depredators were caught at Cairo, illinois, by two New York detectives, and started in irons for m, but made their escape. It is certainly to be hoped that the operators upon the paymaster’s office of the Donegal may not suc- ceed so weil, but may be captured and brought to con- dign punishment Coroners’ Inques' FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE NEW ENGLAND SOLDIERS’ HOME. Ata late hour on Thursday night John Hart, late a member of the Fifteenth New York Volunteers, fell from the roof of the New England Soldiers’ Home, 194 Broadway, tothe pavement, and was so terribly injured that he died soon afterwards. .Deceased had been out late, and on his return it is thought he went to the roof of the building to sleep and fell off. Coroner Wildey held an inquest on the body, and the jury rendered a verdict of accdental death. Deceased was nineteen ; years of age and a native of the United States. SUICIDE OF A CYPRIAN. Hattie Lanigan, alias Broderick, a woman of bad char. | acter, who had becn living in the disreputable house of | Mrs, Wilson, 113 Greene etreet, for the last few weeks, committed suicide yesterday morning by swallowing a quantity of arsenic, which she had long had in her room for another purpose. Deccased was a woman of intemperate habite, aud about three o'clock yesterday morning returned home much | under the influence of liquor, After going to her | Toom Hattie had a difficulty with one of her male «c- quaintances, which resulted in his leaving the house in fan angry state of mind. She subdsequenily swallowod the poison, and when the fact was discovered she was tying insensible and past medical aid, death resulting soon afterwards in the presence of a physician who had been summoned. Coroner Gover was notified to hald an inquest aver the remains. Deceared was about twenty-five years of age, and apparently a native of the United States. FATAL RESULT OF BEING GORED BY A MAD OX. Coroner Gover yesterday held an inquest at Bellevue Hospital on the body of James Talbot, a man soventy- five years of age, who died from the effects of injuries re- ceived by being knocked down and gored by an infuri- ated ox, corner’ of Twenty-fourth. street and Third ave- nue, on’ Monday last. Deceased, who lived at 189 East Twenty-cighth street, loft his home to transact some busl- ness in the nzighborhood, when an ox which broke away from his keepers aud came in collision, caught him on his horns and huried him to the pavement with great violence, thereby inflicung injuries which terminated fatally. "The jury found “that deceased caine to his death by injnries received by being knocked down by astray ox, on the corner of Twenty-fourth street and Third avenue, on the 28th day of August, 1865.” De- ceased was a native of Ireland, Soon after the injury to deceased, Sergeant rolly, of the Eighteenth precinct, uursued the ox and killed him in East Seventeenth street: it was impostibis to ascertain to whom the animal be- longed, as he failed to appear and claim his property. _The Mad Bull In Murray Street. \ °° TO THB BDITOR OF TAB HERALD.

Pinckney, Engs and Brown, being present. A good deal of interest at- tached to this meeting from the fact that a new commis- sioner to supply the place of Mr. Booth was to be elect- ed. A good many people, interested in the result, were seen on the benches of the main hall while the session lasted, There were also many parties on the anxious bench regarding the impending but still deforred election of Assistant Engineer, for which office there are about & score of candidates. Others, too, were there, whose am- bition in the engineering line mounted no higher than the putting through of some “communication” or other document, It is expected that “final action” on the en- gineer mattor will be had next week, and the incipient lobby will then prorogue itself, a8 nothin more than the direct routine is expected to mouutt the tapis thereafter. The business yesterday commenced by reading and approving of the minutes of Wednesday, the 30th ult. Communications were received and disposed of as fol- lows :— From James E. Dunn, foreman.
