On my arrival at Savannah 1 ascertained that there was no railroad communication whatever to Anderaonville, the direct route to Macon being broken, and that from Augusta via Atlanta also in the same pqndirinrv I endeavored to procure wagon transportation, but informed by tbe General commanding the Department of Georgia that a sufficient number of teams could sot be had in the State to haul one-half of my stores; and as the roads were tod, and tbe distance more than 400 miles, I abandoned all idea of attempting a road through a country difficult and tedious under more propitious dreumstanoes. The prospect of reaching Andcraonviijo at this time was by no rrwxna favorable, and nearly a week had elapsed since my arrival at Savannah. I had telegraphed to Augusta.

Atlanta and Macon almost daily, and repute mat me railroads were sot completed. At length on the morning of tbe isth of July a gratifying telegram from Angnsts trae received, announcing the completion of the Augusta and Macon road to Atlanta. lat once determined lo procure a boat and proceed to Augusta by tbe Savannah river. The desired boat was secured and intweuty-loor hours after tbe receipt of the telegram alluded tol was on my way with men and material for Auretta. On my arrival thercl found tbe railroad comlpsted to Macon, that from Macon to AndersonvUJe haring never been broken.

Turrona. While encamped at Anderaonrille, I was daily visited bv men from the surrounding country, and had an opportunity of gleaning their feelings toward the Government, and with hardly an exception, found those who had been in the rebel army penitent and more fcindJy disposed than ihoe who End never taken a part, and anxious to again become dtirens of the Government which they fought so hard to destroy. tpesnrriKo the orates.

On the morning of the 20th of July, the work of Identifying graves, pointing and lettering headboards, laying out walks, and enclosing the cemetery, was commenced, and on the evening of Annual 16th was completed, with exceptions hereafter mentioned. The dead were found buried in trachea, on a site selected by the rebels, abont Sftl from the stockade. The trenches were from two to three feet below the surface, and la several instances, where tains had washed away the earth, hut a few indies. Additional earth waeTbowever, thrown on the graves, making them of still greater depth. So dose were they untied, without or ordinary clothing to cover their nakedness, that not more than twelve Inches were allowed to each body.

Indeed, the little tablets jnarUnglheir resting place, measuring hardly ten inches in width, almost touched each other. United btales soldiers, while prisoners at bad been detailed to inter their companions, and by a stake at the head of each grave, which bore a number with a similarly numbered name upon the AndexvooviUe hospital record, I was enabled to Idecafv and mark with a neat tablet similar to those in the at Washington, the number, name, rank, company. and date of death of 12.466 graves, there being bn 457 which bore the inscription, aaknown U. 8. 170,000 feet of pine lumber were used oa those tabk-ts alone.

Tbe cemetery contains fifty acres, and has been divided by one main avenue running through the centre, and tub-divided into lots and sections la each a manner that with tbe aid of the' record which 1 am now having copied for tbe Superintendent, the visitors will espeniraoe no difficulty in finding any grave. A force of men os now engaged laying out walks and clearing tbe cemetery of stumps prepsratorr to planting trees and flowers. I have already coLimenvd the manufacture of brick, and will lure a sufficient number by tbe first of October to pave tbe numerous gutters throughout tbe cemetery. Tbe clay in tbe vicinity of tbe stockade is well adapted for the purpose of brick making. Appropriate inscriptions arc placed throughout the grounds, 1 nave endeavored, so far as my would permit, to transform this wild, unmarked and enhonored grave yard, into a place of interment for the nation gallant dead.

An important SntHage Association 'has been organised In this dtr, with S. J.

Barker, dry master, as President, and Lewis Clephane, Paternal Revenue Collector, as Vice President. Tbe object of (be organization is to remove tbe last vestige of slaver? from tbls portion of tbe National domain. Six thousand ot tbe colored men in tbls district bare signed their names to a petition, which will be presented to Coneress next winter, asking to be invested with tbe rights of American citizenship. The CommLaioncr of Internal Revenue to-day derided to accept the compromises proposed by the Ittrtiet; concerned in the attempted whiskey fronds Nashville. They agree to pay to tbe Government one hundred and thirty tVonsaod dollars, which Is Just forty thousand more than the assessed taxes on the articles they attempted to smuggle.

The Secretary of tbe Treasury isbnsy ferretting out those systems of expenditure so long Indulged in by Congressmen tor the benefit of their particular localities with tbe intention of applying the corrective which the public exigencies demand.

In a very able and elaborate opinion he concurs with Ibis office, substantially affirming that colored soldiers entering tbe military service were in all cases to be treated as freedmea at the date of their acceptance in theservice, and that there was upon the statute books no law either forbidding their employment inthearmy or, with tbe exception of a brief period of ninteen intervening al the passage of the act of June 15th and that of July 4tu, ISW, creating on account of eoler any distinction in tbe pay, allowance or bounty to which soldiers were entitled.

his plea for defence Capt. Wire staled that he was before the Court to answer for all Ids official and personal acts, and hoped to show they were void of offence. Be hoped not to be held responsible for the misdeeds ot others. Hedidnot ask for mercy but Justice. There are three distinct parts in which prosecution and defence are necessarily comprised.

had he conspired with John A. Winder and others to injure health and destroy lives of soldiers! Second, was he the person officially responsible for sufferings at Andersonville! Third, bad he committed murder or perpetrated any of tbe atrocities charged! As to the first, there was no testimony to substantiate the charge of con piracy. No one of tbe witnesses bad beard him say anything indicating a knowledge of the conspiracy; no paptr was found in bis office, or in the archives of the Confederacy, to chow such conspiracy. Even if tbe specifications of conspiracy were true, there is no evidence that suffering was the result conspiracy. Wire ihe Government does not boucre the erarjitracj existed, as it struck off tbe names of Lee, Seddon and others who were first indicted with Him.

The onlvtestimony showing conspiracy was about an expression attributed to Wire, that be was of more value than a regiment in the front. Be would replv to that elsewhere. Be could not be hdd fora similar expression attributed to Winder, Cobb and furthermore, if he obeyed the orders of his superior officers, be was cot responsible for the motive that dictated orders. Be further argued that he should not be held responsible for the crowded condition of the camp, unwholesome food. and adduced tbe foilowing reasons: lie was not responsible for the selection of the camp, as it was located while be was la Europe, lone before be assumed command, and that tbe witnesses for the prosecution exonerated nnn from complicity In camp selection or overcrowding it, and also for the condition of things in tbe hospital and the stockade.

As to the charge of murder, he hoped lo show that he was not entity, and that he had done all in his power to alleviate the miseries of the prisoners. In thirteen murders charged, no name, date, regiment or circumstance bad been mentioned. In ail tbe testimony, only two cases were definitely fixed. These were tbe cases ofChlckamacga ana Wm. Stewart.

With regard to Cnickamauga. he would make the following correct statement: On the evening referred to. an officer told Win there was a man on the dead line Jawing tbe guard and great deal of excitement. Win went inside tbe stockade and roughly oc-ked Chtckamanea what In he was doing there. C.

said be wanted to be killed. Wirr told him he could soon be killed, and drew bis pistol tomenace him. Be frightened him hack, and after ordering the guard to shoot him if he again approached tbe dead line. Win went outride of the etoctade. Be had no idea Chtckamauga'a fnenda would allow him to come near the line again.

While on the way to bis quarters, he beard the report of a musket, and on going back be found that Cbickamanga had passed the dead line, and tbe sentinel bad obeyed orders and shot him. Be had violated the rules of the prison discipline, which was enforced all prisons in tbe booth, and which was posted op in conspicuous olaces at Andersonville. With regard lo the caw of btewart, the alleged victim was never at Andersonville. IBs name could not be found on any of the prison records, nor on tbe hospital pr dealt registers. The testimony in this case came from a man named Gray, wbo prevaricated very modi, and, therefore, could not be believed.

lie argues in a similar mannerabont the evidence of Coke, who testified he had been robbed and that Win ordered the men bayoneted. Win adduces CoL testimony to show that be had nothing to do with the employment of dogs. Be pronounces the all epsilon tliat fuilonghs were anted to for shooting prisoners, false, denies that prisoners were ever deprived of rations as a punishment. The statement which I row close will probably survive me and you alike. It will stand as a complete answer to all the mars of misrepresentation against me.

May God so direct and enlighten yon In your deliberations that vocr character for impartiality and justice maybe protected, my diameter defended, and the few of my natural life spared to my Helpless family.

Despatch to the Chicago SrcrscnELD. Oct 18. Got. Oglesby leaves here this evening lor Peoria, to which place be has been lanted to zashe speech at an immense gathcrirp to' be held there to-morrow, as on oration to the soldiers of that section of the State. The Governor will not re mm before Saturday.

Amocg the troops at Camp Butler at present arc Jorty-dx negroes belonging to the Twenty-Moth S. Colored Volunteers. The Thirty-Sixth regiment Illinois Infantry, Cob, B. F. Campbell, commanding, consisting of twenty officers ana 250 enlisted mm, and the Fifth Illinois Cavalry, consisting of twenty officers and 27 enlisted men, arrived safely at Camp Butler last evening.

The condition of the camp, 1 am sorry to say, is far tram comfortable, the recent rains having completely saturated the monads and rendered them entirely unfit for camping purposes. The barracks at that point are also untenable and there Is bntacoldnscepilonfortbe boys on their return from the sonny booth. The Governor has written a most -crgenl letter to Gen. Ord, requesting him to Instruct tho Quartermaster at the camp to have the barracks at once put In proper repair for the reception and accommodation of hot if this reanest should not be acceded to, he has suggested tothe authorities the wisdom and humanity of mustering out and paying the aoldieraln the field, jmd thtmfuroisb them with transportationto tho Samst railroad station to their boost tatte State, thus evading Springfield alforelter. Tbfaeoowe would eertaliflT be wvwsl bencfldal results to the boys, in addition to the exposure and hardships which they would thereby escape.

They would also be less exposed to the merciless sharks and leeches that are everywhere, ready to cheat end filch the poor soldier out ol bis hard-earned money, and to the savages, of whom I am sorry to say, Springfield is not entirely exempt; and I therefore hope, for the sake ol the soldier, that the last-named effort of the Governor will be successful.

Vinton: The protest of Rev. Dr. Vinton suppresses and ignores tbe resolution of Ibis House, unanimously adopted on the 13th InaL, recognizing with most profound gratitude the goodness of Almighty God in restoring national peace and union; Such suppression unjust andinjntlotie to this Iloase and calculated to produce an cmmeow Impression in regard to its therefore That raid protest be oot received flout raid that in offering this amendment to tte minutes, hie purpose was to vindicate the house from the erroneous Impressions which the protest was calculated to produce. On his motion the house bed with entire unanimity expressed its profound gratitude to Almighty Cod lor tha restoration ornational peace and Union, The national Union, by necessary implication os well as in tho popular acceptance of tne term, includes the integrity of the nation and the Federal Government with all'lte rtghlfhl and constitutional authority over the whole land. It was in this sense tnat the Union bed been defended and preserved.

In framing the resolution be had employed the term in this sense as synonymous with the national government based on the constitutional Union ot the Stales, with all its powers complete and unimpaired. He felt fuDy warranted in asserting that such was the true meaning of this house. In making any reference to this proceeding, he felt that the antboroflbeprotcal bad done mortal Irfury to th; Church end Convention, For onehe was unwilling to have It go forth to the coanlry that the Convention had tailed to express its sense of gratitude to Almighty God, not only for peace, ana the blessings which implies, bat also for the union of the Stales and the restoration of the National integrity and authority. Ills only object in the present motion was to place this matter in its true light before the Church and the country, and to vindicate their action trom what be could not do less than characterise as an unfair and unwarrantable imputation. non.

A debate ensued, during which Bev.

Mr. Clements of Ohio said he would vole against any legislation upon this subject. There was no necessity for this canon. Cowardly men will often be glad to array themselves against their country, or to do their dnlvtoitwben they can point to the Church as a thicid. We might as well legislate that our members mar not be postmasters.

In regard to this peculiar subject members should legislate for emergencies. we are not sure that another rebellion will cot break out; God grant that if may be lor distant; hat we cannot be too sure of that when wo find a tody Hko this refusing to thank God a rebellion Ida beat crushed.

Goodwin's substitute was adopted by a vole of 2 ayes against SO noes by standing count. Jnd're Otis attempted another amendment as lollmra; is the rule of this Church that no duly admitted candidates for holy orders shall voluntarily bear arms in any military or naval service."

In order to secure to yourselves again tho blessings of local sell-government, and to 'avoid military.rulc, and the danger of running into military despotism, y0 the supreme authority of the Government df United within the sphere of power, and the right to protect itself against disintegration bj the' secession of the And, second, Yon must recognize the abo-- lition of slavery, and the right of those who have been slaves to privileges and protection of the law of the'faniL From what I can see, this much will bo required os the least that would be likely to satisfy the Government, flndseeure'toryon the benefits ol civil government, admission of yonr members Into tbc Congress of the United States.

Bnt even this maj the-' ly fall in the attainment of ehallbe ide by ends, unless provision shai. made by the new State Government for conferring' the elective franchise on the former slaves. And present appearances indicate that this will be required by Northern public sentiment and by Congress. And oar people are condition to disregard that opinion orpowerwith safety. But lam persuaded you may satisfy both without farther injury to yourselves than has already occurred.

If you can do this, and secure to yourselves liberty, the protection of tbc Constitution and tbe laws of the United States, and the right of local self' government, you will be more fortunato than many other conquered people have been. The Government ana the people of the Northern States will, I have no doubt, recognize the necessity of your securing these blessings, os Important to the whole country, as a means of preserving to it CQnstitulional liberty and the present form of republican government. This is a new language to employ in addressiogyou, and as unwelcome toyon os It Is sorrowful to But it would bo more than folly. It would he a great crime for yon, and I. and those who may he charged with the; duty of reorganizing and restoring the State to tho Union, to re Rise to rccognhe the facte of your situation, however disagreeable, and to speak of and deal with them with candor and directness.

Wisdom requires us to accept the decision ofbaltle upon the Issues Involved, and to be thankful that no more has been demanded by the conquerors, and to unite frankly, and os cheerfully as we can, with the Govemmeut, in carrying out the policy It has propounded. Some people seem still to think they can retain their property and their slaves, under the authority of the Constitution aadlaws of the United States. If the question had been originally submitted to the courts of the country, instead of to the trial of battle, this might have been the case. But we arc not now permitted to claim the protection of the' Government which we repudiated and fought against, unless by its consent. It says, to the great mass of our people yon may retain your property, except your slaves.

They arc now free. And unless you agree to this you can neither get back into the Government as citizens, nor into its courts to assert your claims to slaves or any other species of property. The only wise and safe course for you to pursue Is to accept promptly, unreservedly, and in good faith, the terms and policy offered, and to go forward in the work of reorganization and restoration to the Union. This requires your assent to great pecuniary sacrifices, momentous changes in our social and industrial system, and a snrrcn- der of yonr opinions and prejudices on most 1 Important questions. It is humbling to our self-esteem, humiliating to our pride, and cannot he more unwelcome to you than it is painful to me to feel that duty requires mo to give and you to accept the advice.

It Is not that sort of advice which persons sometimes give but do not accept for themselves. It is for me and mine os well as for younnd yours. To the conferring of the elective franchise on your former slaves, anticipate a stubborn and sincere opposition, based on the ignorance of the great mass of them, and on the total want of Information and experience In matters of legislation, administration, and everything which pertains to the science of government and upon the pride of race. And this objection maybe sustained by pointing to the examples of Mexico, and of the Central American and South American States, where, by the enfranchisement of the Indians and the negroes, and oil others, without reference to race or mental or moral fitness for the exercise of these responsible rights, they have been deprived of the blessings of peace, order and good government, and Involved in an almost uninterrupted series of wars and revolutions, often'of the most cruel and barbarous character, for more, than half a century, with no prospect of an amelioration or improvement of their condition. But these difficulties arc not Insuperable, IT yon meet them with patience and reason.

I nave no doubt yon can adopt a plan which will ftilly meet the demands of justice and taimoss and eatfaty the Northern mind, and the requirements of the Government, without endangering good government, and. the pose of society. This can bo done by: Extending the privileges and-protection of the laws over negroes as they are over the whites and allowing them to. testify In the courts on the same conditions; leaving their testimony subject to Its credibility; but not objecting to its admissibility. And.

in this you wnT conform with the wise current of modern legislation, and the tendency of oil judicial decisions in oil enlightened countries. Second, By fixing on intellectual and moral, and, If thought necessary, a property test for the admission of all persons to the exercise of the elective franchise, without reference to race or color, which would secure its intelligent My own view would First, That no person now entitled to the Srivllcge of voting should bo deprived of it cause of any new test. I would recognize, in this the difference between taking away a right not heretofore exercised. Second, That to authorize the admission of persons hereafter to the exercise of the elective franchise, they should be, first, males; second, twenty-one years of age; third, citizens of the United States; fourth, should have resided In the State one year, and in the district, county or precinct, six months next preceding any election, at which they propose to vote; fifth, should be able to read in the English language understandingly; sixth, and must have paid taxes for the last year preceding for which such taxes were doe and payable, subject to any disqualification for crime, of which the person may have been dnly convicted, which may be prescribed by The adoption of these'measures, in addition to those before mentioned, would, in my judgment, meet the ends of justice and fairness secure the re-establishment of the State government, the admission of her Senators and Representatives in Congress, the suspension of military rule, and the restoration of civil, constitutional and local And it would do more. It would secure your protection against other great and pending evils; and is, lam persuaded, of the greatest consequence to your future peace, prosperity and happiness.

would remove ah just groundsof ontagohism and hostility between the white and black races. Unless this is done, endless strife and bitterness of feeling must characterize their relations, and all history and human experience teach us must, sooner or later, result In a war of races. We now know, from sad experience, what war is between equals and enlightened people. But all wars a social war of races is the moat relentless and cruel; the extermination, or expulsion from the country, or enslavement of one or the other, being Us Inevitable end where they are left to themselves, or the loss of Uhcrty to. both races where they are all subject tq tne control of a superior power, which would be our situation.

I speak, of course, orthe legal rights and status of tho two races. Their social relations are mutters of taste and choice, and not subject to legislative regulation. course would disarm and put an end to Inter-State, sectional, political agitation on this subject, at least, which, has been the special corse country for so many years, and which was the cause of the unnumbered woes we have recently experienced and slDl suffer, by depriving the agitators of a subject on which to keep up such an agitation, and of the means of producing animosity and hatred between the different parts ofthc country, and between the different races. And Ibis would do much toward? tho renewal of the ancient relations of natural harmony and fraternal good will between all ports of the country. And this too Is of the greatest consequence to our future welfare, and especially asour people now know there is no hope of escape from It by appealing to tbe principles of State Sovereignty and tbe right of secession, If the State will accept this policy at once, It will attain the great ends heretofore mentioned, and It wilfsave its own people from years of painful strife and agitation on these 1 questions, which would at last, probably after years of contention, be found to be the only means of bringing it to an end, even ii it lead to nothing worse.

How infinitely better It will be for you, for both races, for the present and tho future, for the whole country, If you will unhesitatingly recognize the unalterable facts aa to your condition, and the inevitable logic of events; and hasten, as it is in your power to. do, the return of the blessings of civil government and constitutional and avoid, as it is In your power to do, the fearful peril which now lies before you. 1 know the painful struggle against education, and habit, ond policy, and tradition, and prejudice, which such a course wm require yon to encounter, and how hatd It is for human nature to overcome such difficulties. But my sincere prayer is that God, In His goodness and mercy, may enable you to exhibit this last crowning evidence, In the midst of yonr calamities. Tho negroes will, it Js hoped, gradually diffuse themselves among tbe greatly preponderaling.nmnbers of whites, In the different Slates and Territories; many of them will probably go to Mexico, ond other countries, search of social equality; and a few or none of their race will bo added to their nqmbers by accessions from-otber countries.

the Bteady.and rapid Influx of great numbers of 'white races from othercountries gradually -'decrease the cambers between them and thejwhires, and rcndcr.tbis new-element In society: and government innoxious, or at' least pqwerlcssfor if they should be so But from the general docility of their dispositions wo may expect the most of them to be and many of them industrious useful.citizens. Bat 'to secure these desirable- ends it 'most not be forgotten that it is'an essentialprerequisite to confer on them their reasonable and necessary rights adopts policy which will prevent Eg an clement-of political agitation, and strife, and'danger. 55?"
