John Yates (search for this): article 5
Judge Halyburton, of the C. S. Circuit Court, was engaged a portion of yesterday in the partial hearing of the charges against John Yates, Samuel Wheelberger, George Cooper, Daniel Cooper, G. W. Ramsey, John Thume, Samuel Bowman, Wm. Coffman, John D. Kester, and Rev. Wm. Dunlop, of Rockingham county, Va., for aiding and piloting deserters from the Confederate army to the Yankee lines. At the commencement of the investigation a message was received from the Secretary of War stating that the Government claimed that the parties were subject and ought to be tried by military authority. To this the counsel for the prisoners objected, alleging that they were citizens, and were, therefore, subject only to jury trial. To enable the Government to put in an argument, the investigation was adjourned until to day. The evidence elicited showed that the prisoners had been guilty of harboring Confederate deserters, and that they had used language that showed their antagonism to the Sout

the county through which they retreated they burned all the residences and barns. They also destroyed the little town of Tallapoosa, six miles west of Holly Springs, as they passed through it. On yesterday, from the cupola of the court-house in Holly Springs, the smoke of as many as fifteen or twenty fires could plainly be seen all along the route of their retreat, and it is believed not a single residence or barn in that part of the country has escaped them. On Wednesday last 25,000 infantry and cavalry, with ten pieces of artillery, passed through this place, taking the road to Wyatt, a mile south of us, and it was greatly feared they would return this way and destroy what is left of Holly Springs, but they did not do it. It is said our soldiers, while at Colliersville, captured enough boots and shoes and other quartermasters' stores to last them through the winter.--It was also reported that Gen. Sherman was on the train captured at Colliersville, but made his escape.
Wms (search for this): article 3
m Gen. Stuart, who never falls to harass the enemy when an opportunity presents itself. John Minor Botts, a miserable traitor, has been endeavoring to arouse the sympathy of some of the army in his behalf by telling them how much he has suffered by some of our troops stopping only one night on his farm. This individual, during the occupation of Culpeper by the enemy, gave entertainments, and invited the most prominent officers to his house; and from what I have heard I have not the slightest doubt that he communicated all he knew concerning our army and Government. John Minor Botts should be imprisoned during the war by our authorities or banished. He is an enemy, and too dangerous a one to remain longer on the outpost. Among the slaves captured by Major Mosby a few days since, there was one belonging to Gen. Wms. C. Wickham, of Hanover. He was stolen during Stoneman's raid and carried to Washington. He seemed to be highly gratified at the idea of getting home. Dyke.
Wise (search for this): article 5
thened the little army scouted and scoured the country far and near, with no mean success; for near Elizabeth City our men came unexpectedly upon a camp or lurking place of guerillas. The nest was broken up, several captures made, and those who escaped were dispersed in all directions. I believe that but five were captured, the rest escaping by reason of their unprecedented display of agility. Information from the front of our forces gives us knowledge of the fact that Gens. French and Wise, with their troops, have been removed respectively from the Blackwater and the Peninsula to some more important point further South. Gen. Pickett commands the defences of Richmond and the area over which the former two Generals kept surveillance. The rebel force is represented as very weak indeed, owing to the constant drafts toward Rosecrans and Meade. Fortress Monroe, Oct. 24, 1863. --The propeller Virginia, Captain Snyder, arrived this morning from New York, with about 200 rebel pri
Wilson (search for this): article 1
During Robbery. --Some few nights since an old man named Wilson, a resident of Church Hill, was garroted and robbed of $1,400 in the following manner: Being in the neighborhood of the First Market- house, a short time after dark, he was accosted by two fellows, who insisted on being treated. To get rid of them, he went into a drinking house near by, ordered liquor, and pulled out his roll of notes to pay the bill. After paying and drinking he started for home.--When on Broad street, between 20th and 21st, a fellow overtook him, offered to sell him a pair of fine ducks for $2.50, and insisted on his going to a shanty at the foot of the hill south of Broad street to look at them; but he declined, promising to return after supper. Wilson continued along Broad street till reaching 23d, when he turned to go to Marshall, followed by the "duck seller." On getting to the mouth of the alley, in rear of the late Capt. Burke's residence, three ruffians sprang upon him, choked him down, a

Weisiger (search for this): article 8
The Clothing Bureau, on 14th street, near Cary, under the charge of Capt. Weisiger, has been carefully arranged, as well for the transaction of business as for the accommodation and convenience of the three thousand ladies who get work there. Capt. W. says his first object is to give the work of his department to the wives, daughters, and mothers of soldiers in the field, and to enable him to do this he has already called in some five hundred tickets, held by ladies whose supports are nothe preference over those ladies who have their husbands and fathers with them, and who can get along without Government patronage. We are satisfied that all abuses in this office will be remedied as soon as they are discovered, and that Capt. Weisiger will do all in his power to aid soldiers' families in providing for themselves the necessaries of life. After they are served the surplus work, if any, will be given to helpless widows and other ladies who live only by their needles, and who
