Mr. Bradley, who was a gallant sol dier in the "Bethel" regiment, was here on light duty, having been wounded, and was near the south trate of the capitol when Walsh aud an other man rode out of a store. Walsh drew his pistol, and though Mr. Brad ley begged him not to fire, and said "For God's sake don't shoot, the city has been surrendered," said he would have one more shot He fired three times at the federal ad vance guard. This was led by Major Hayes, Kilpatrick was a mile in the reiir. Walsh was chased and captur ed. When be was taken before Kil patrick, Hayes told the latter Walsh was intoxicated and not responsible, but nevertheless Kilpatrick had him hanged at once. When the shots were fired Lt.
