abdomen of private Richard Morris, who was a mere spectator, causing his death within a few hours thereafter. Maj. Alexander, the commandant of Castle Thunder, stated that Newsom was on post performing his duty when he ordered private Johnson out of his beat. The orders to the sentinels were imperative, and strictness was absolutely necessary, to prevent persons from talking with or making signs to the prisoners. He also stated that Newsom was on his way to his barracks when he was stopped by Johnson and questioned as to his conduct when on post. Maj. A. did not see the shooting, but thought there were others about the Castle that did. The Mayor therefore adjourned the investigation till this morning, and requested Maj. Alexander to continue the custodian of the accused for the present, which he readily consented to do. Newsom, we understand, has been tried by Court-Martial, and since then has been turned over to the civil authorities by Gen. Winder for a further trial.
