An Irish Prisoner. A member of tho 69th .regiment, (Col. Corcoran's) now a prisoner in Richmond, writes the following letter to his brother in Angusta, Georgia: New Alms Hospital, Richmond, Va., July 30, 1861. Dear Pat : I wrote you a few lines last week, which a gentleman either posted or took on with him, as he resided near Augnsta. I know you were surprised to hear that I was in Richmond wounded ; but if we bad got onr rights I would have been in New York the day the battle was fought, our term of servioe having expired the day before, but old Abe or Scott would not let . the regiment go borne. Well, it served us right, when we were fools enough to fight in such a cause; but I hope the time will come when Irishmen will mind their own business. Early in the fight I got a ball in the | - - - .... ? I T 1 *t,?l thigh, WD1GQ orOKe rne ooue. x my UU Hit field S5 boars, a rain falling most of the time, and might have laid there since, if it was not for the kindness of the Southerners?enemies I cannot call them, for thej have treated as more like brothers than anything else. I got a bard shaking on the railroad, but now, thank God! I am very comfortable here I expect to have my leg set to-day. If it is, I hope to recover soon, when I will be a much wiser man. U Owing to the great number of wounded I could not be attended sooner; besides the doctor was afraid of mortification; but I think I am now safe, and that, with God's help, I will have the use of my leg. Dear Pat, you oould not believe the way our soldiers were treated by Scott. There were eight regiments on the field whose time was up, but could not get home.? But, worse than all, they left the dead and wounded on the field, and never sent a flag of truce in to know how or what would become of us. It is Colonel Corcoran I blame for keeping us; he is now a prisoner here. Many is the heavy curse he got from wouo- : ded and dying men. I wish you could send a letter to my wife, poor creature; probably she thinks me dead. She lives at 212, West 26th street. Direct, care of Thos. Kiernan. Tell her I hope to be with her soon ; also, that I am well treated; get meat three times a day, and splendid soup at dinner time. I remain, dear Pat, your affectionate brother, B. R. i An Ohio Member. Mr. Riddle, member of the Lincoln Con-! erera from Ohio, writes a letter to the Cleveland Leader concerning his experience at the battle of Manassas, from which the following extracts are taken : "Well, the further they (the soldiers) ran, the more frightened they grew, and although we moved on as rapidly as we could the fugitives passed us by scores. * * * The heat was awful, although now about 6; the men were exhausted?their mouths, \ gaped, their lips cracked and blackened j with the powder of the cartridges they had bitten off in the battle; their eyes staring in frenzy?no mortal ever Baw such a mass i of ghastly wretches. As we passed the poor, demented, ex-| hausted wretches, whe could not clitnb in-! to the high, close baggage wagons, they! made frantic efforts to get on to aod into our j I carriage. Tbey grasped it everywhere, and i got on to it, and into it, and over it, and < implored us every way to take them on. We had to be rough with them At first they loaded us down almost to a stand st-ii and we had to push them off and throw them out. Finally Brown and I, with a pistol each, kept them out, although ooe poor devil got in in spite of us, and we lugged the i coward two miles. I finally opened the door and he was tumbled out." -- .???? ? From Washington.?The following h. < an extract from a Washington letter to the' St. Loui9 Republican: "To-day I heard a colonel of one of the! New York regiments threaten to surround the House and make prisoners of ail the members The men, too, talk in that way. We are fast drifting to the devil, and nothing but Providence or will save us from absolute anarchy and ruiu. "Mr. Lovejoy, of Illinois, went over to see?not the fight, as be would have it, but; the races?to see the chivalry travel South- ] ?? >? /} hnfora the Northern mudsills. Well.! he went, and simply changed his position \ from spectator to participant, and it is said j be made the fastest time on record, oorj never stopped till he was behind the Speak er'e chair in the House." Washington, August2.?Thisevening, j at eight o'clock, a flag of truce from Gen j Johnston came within our lines at Bailey's! Cross Roads, bearing dispatches from John i ston (borne by Lieut. Hanger, of the Sixth : Georgia Regiment,} addressed to General j McDowell. The flag bearer was at once couductcd to the tent of Acting Brigadier j General McGann, who caused the packages; borne to be sent tc General .McDowell,: keeping the bearer and his attendants in his! camp. Last night Geu McDowell seut! duplicates of the dispatches in question, I to Gen. McClellan, and this morning they j were duly laid before the President. Their; contents, of which we know nothing, are, however, said and believed to be of importance. On yesterday General Beauregard was; reconnoiteriog, in person, within three or j four miles of the Chain Bridge, and had | left a party of ten or fifteen of his troops! scouting there, but ten minutes before thelatter were all made prisoners by Captain | Motte, of New York, and a Union eouipa-i ny that went out for the purpose of capturing them. The distance was about sixj mills from Wa-hington. The .statement that Gen. Banks has been | reinforced by double the number of three| months' men who have left him is without foundation. According to an officer, who left him yes terdov, the whole force is odIj from iU.UUU to 12*000. It is understood that Geo. McClellan is to be entrusted with almost plenary powers, substantially those of Commander-in-Chief within his own division Sixteen officers of the Garibaldi Guard, dissatisfied with their experience, have resigned their commissions and returned to New York. Savage Barbarity.?'The Lincolnites took two prisoners of the South Carolina regiments, at the battle of Bull ltun. WheD our troops passed through Centreville on the crand route, they were found hungrfh a tree I One was from Bacon's Seventh Regiment, the other from Kershaw's So cond. Our Government has demanded the perpetrators of the horrid act, and notified Lincoln that if they are not given up, four men will be hung in retaliation.?Carolinian. The Bowie Knife Boys.?A vivandiere who was attached to the late company of heroes?"The Tiger Rifles," of New Orleans?has returned to that city, and states that 26 of them are yet alive, the survivors of eighty-three who went into the fight at Manassas. The company is annihilated, but a nucleus remains for tbose to gather round who will compete for the privilege of upholding the honored name of "The Tiger Rifles," the bowie knife chargers of Manassas, and securing to another field the aid of a company as numerous and as valiant. The Tiger Rifles were completely fitted out with a Zouave uniform at the expense of A. Keene Richards, Esq., a wealthy planter, and well known turfite of Louisiana. They were one of the five companies of Wheat's hercic battallion, which lost Dear half its men. Important from Norfolk. Norfolk, Aug. 7.?Two Boston steamers now in the United States service?one of them recognized as the S. P. Whiting ?came in from sea on Sunday and proceeded up to Newport's News. During the whole of Sunday night the Northern troops at that point were busily engaged embarking on board the steamers with their baggage, &c. Early on Monday morning they got under way and steamed down the Capes with their decks crowded with troops and proceeded to sea. Passcagers from Yorktown who arrived in Richmond yesterday, reported that the Northern troops bad altogether evacuated Newport's News. There can be no doubt that a large number of the troops lately there have been sent to Nashville and others to Fortress Monroe.?Mercury. How the Farmers in the Northwest Enjoy the Blockade.?The St. Louis Republican, speaking of the depressing effects of the war, says: "In this market potatoes cannot be given away at 6c. per bushel; new corn will go down to 10c., if it can be sold at all; oats will be worth nothing; hay will be a drug, and wheat will not, in all probability, command over 35c." In Northern Illinois last year's potatos, sound and nice, are given away. One farmpp in Whiteside eouDtv has thrown five hundred bushels of fine potato"5 out to the weather, as no one would take them for cost of transportation. An Iowa paper quotes potatoes at 2c.; wheat, SOc.; corn, 8c. per bushel; butter, 7c. per pound ;eggs, 2c. per dozen ; cheese, 6c. per pound?markets dull at that Little "Rock, AuguRt 5.?The quartermaster of Gen. Pearce's Arkansas brigade has just reached this city from the Northwest. He brings advices that a scouting party of twenty five, belonging to Col Churchill's regiment, encounterd one hundred federalists near Cassville, Mo., and after a sharp contest routed the enemy with a loss of from seventeen to twenty. The Confederates had four horses killed and twoj wounded. Capt McLean, from Vellvile, says the federalists drove the Missouriaos out ofl Forsyth, Mo., a few days ago, and robbed j the place. The Missourians killed thirty I six of the invaders, and had one man wound- j ed. W. R. Miller m * Tt* \ THE IjATEST FROM i'iissuttii. ? :\ uur-| respondent writes us a very interesting letter from Gen Pillow's camp, near New Mardrid, Missouri, dated the 4th inst.,the greater part of which we suppress for prudential reasons. We extract the following : "A citizen of New Madrid brought the intelligence from Bird's Point, last uight, to Gen. Pillow that thirteen steamboats had been chartered to bring nothern troops down j the river. Two of these stopped at St Louis, two were left at Cape Girardeau, and the other nine came to Bird's Point, loaded with men and arms. "Col. Fremont was along, and declared his intentiou of driving Pillow out of Mis Rouri."?Memphis Appeal, C)th inst Southern Men to be Handcuffed! and Used as a Breastwork.?Oue of! the prisoners captured at Manassas was! aBked concerning the handcuffs taken by; our forces when the enemy retreated so ingloriously from the field. The prisoner: said that he did not know certainly, but [ the understanding in his camp wa9, that j they were intended for such Southerners asj were captured between Manassas and Richmond ; and expecting that the rebels would | make a decisive stand at Richmond, it wasj rumored that these captured Southerners i were to be put, handcuffed, in front of! tiieir (the United States soldiers') lines, and I thus to make a breastwork of them, that the rebel army would be forced first to tire upon and kill their own friends. Darkies Shooting Abolitionists. ?The Wal' has dispelled OUe dcllisiOLi of the Abolitionists. The negroes regard them; as enemies instead of friends. No insur-j rcction has occurred in the South?no im- J portant stampede cf slaves has evinced their! desire for freedom. On the contrary, have jeered at and insulted our troops, have readily enlisted in the rebel army, and od Sunday, at Manassas, shot down our men with as much alacrity as if Abolitionism had never existed. These are tire creatures for whose sake Lovejoy, Chandler and Pomeroy are agitating; the nation, and to whom they would unconstitutionally extend the privileges of freedom ami equali ty.?Ao rthrru Exch a nge. Notice. Each soldier mustered iutu Confederate service is entitled to twenty-one dollars cash, commutation; and this is in lieu of uuifurm, clothes, blankets, shoes aud all personal covering of the soldier. If these things are furnished the company by private contribution, or have them, the twenty-one dollars will be received, and by ap: pointing a responsible man from the cutu| pauy to take euou. h of it, might constitute ! a reserve fund for the company of great use in any emergency that might happen.? Guardian. friend of ours suggests that instead | of oar ladies parting with 'heir jewels, that ! the geDtlemen should part with their liquor and tobacco. He says (aud we concur with ! him) that it is their business to increase jour pleasure by looking as lovely as they jean. But an old bachelor crustily remark j fed : '-How could we have the spirit toad } mire them if our spirits were taken away?" ; The remark was Voted out of order, and he i was requested to leave. He did so.? i VicksLury Sun. I LATEST NEWS. Northern and Western Items. Springfield, Mo., August 8.?Much alarm is felt iu consequence of reports of the Southerners flanking the city. Stores are closed, and the citizens are gathering their valuables. The State Bank has placed its specie in charge of General Lyon. Potosi,* Mo., August 8.?A party of one hundred secessionists dashed through this city to-day, killing a number of the Home Guard and losing two of their own men. Eleven hundred Southerners are thirty miles below here. The Tribvne says that Garibaldi has tendered his services to the Federals. Seward accepts, making Garibaldi a Major-General. Washington, August 8.?Prince Napoleon has departed for New York. Gen. Wool has certainly been ordered to the command of Fortress Monroe. Skirmish at Rich Spring. A passenger who left Monterey Thursday morning, and who arrived yestei day afternoon per Central cars, reports that General Rosencranz, in command of the Northern forces in Western Virginia, and General Lee, in command of oar army operating in that part of the State, met at Rich Spring, an important point, and said to be the key to the Valley. Both Generals were poshing with all speed, each endeavoring to oc- j copy it in advance of the other. General Lee, however, was more active i than the General with the Batch name, | and arrived with two regiments several ] boars in advance of his competitor, who hadj four regiments. Our informant states that the skirmish took place, resulting in a repulse of the Northern troops, with a loss of about forty men killed and wounded.?Richmond Dispatch, 10th instant. Bombardment of New Orleans. New Orleans, August 13.?On Saturday, the 3d, the blockading schooner Dart exchanged five or six shots with the batteries at Galveston Island, doing no damage on either side. On the following Monday afternoon the South Carolina left her usual station, and moved almost within rifle shot of the batteries, which opened fire? the steamer answering. The Carolina threw shells over the city, which exploded in the air, doing no material injury. A shell exploded among a number of lookerson, near the batteries, killing one and wounding two or three. Some 12 or 14 shots were exchanged, when the steamer ? . - r* withdrew. It 13 believed that tne Carolina was struck in the side, and that her pivot gun was capsized. Great indigoation is felt at the outrageous attempt to bombard the citj without notice. Vag* An important commercial regulation has been adopted by Congress, in its enactment of the extension of the prohibition of the exportation of Cotton, except through the Confederate ports. The exten- j sion covers Rice, Sugar, Molasses and Syr-1 ups. The prohibition is to be continued; during the existence of the blockade, and j is fortified by severe penalties, amounting' to fine or imprisonment of the person viola \ ting the same, and the forfeiture to the! Government of any steam boat or rail road j car engaged in the transportation. Spunky Old Yankee Woman.?We: find the following good anecdote going the! rounds: An elderly lady, who attended a meeting of the First Vermont Regiment, arose, full i of enthusiasm, and said she thanked God i that she was able to do something for herj country. Iler two sons, all she possessed i in the world, were in the Regiment, and! the only thing she had to regret, was that; she could not have known ir twenty years; ago?she would have furnished more. JST" The Charleston Courier asks if ar-; rangements cannot be tnade for a distribn- j tion of the prisoners now in Richmond. 1 through the Southern States? The States! having peniteutiaries might take some and j have them put to work; and others could j be distributed in small groups to avoid trouble in guarding and to remove from some citizens of Virginia, the opportunity ( of making themselves conspicuous for ostentatious benevolence exclusively directed j towards our enemies Patriotic.?An old man of about seventy, with snowy beard and hair, but hale and stout, hearing that none would be received in the service over forty five, was so anxious to enlist that he went down to the barber's shop and had his hair and beard dyed black, and came out looking quite fresh and young, and will not acknowledge tn mnrp than fortv now. Me is one of the boys, and we venture to say will do a9 much service as any of them.? Pint Bluff (yir& ) News. Prisoners of War in Irons.?The New York Daily News, of the 6th in.st., has the following editorial: Thirty more privateersraan, sailing under the commission of the Confederate States, and captured upon the Enchantress, oft'Charleston, have arrived at Philadelphia, and lie in Moyamensing Prison. We regret to see it stated, in the Philadelphia journals, that, like the prisoners taken on the Savannah, and confined in the New York Tombs, these men are kept in irons. | ?'Ltfe Settlements."?The Richmond ! Whig thus gouges into the New York Times ! with a quotation from its own columns : ' The thousands of our soldiers who are anxious to make life settlements in that magnificent dominion (Virginia) have already had their wishes gratified. They are improving the lands about Dull Run. and I will, soon render them the most productive !in the State." Richmond, August 12.?The train to I Manassas last night collided, killing and | wounding about twenty men Col. Wig: fall's command. The accident occurred inear 10 o'clock, about seventeen miles from | Richmond, on the Manassas route, from a land slide, caused by delugiug rains. Eight cars, with soldiers, were smashed and shivered to pieces. Two companies from Louis ville, Kentucky, are the principal sufferers. Beauregard Advancing on the Enemy.?A private letter received by us on yesterday; dated at Mauassas Junction, July 27th, says: <iOur army is advancing nnrin Alexandria as fast as nossible." This stateuieut is corroborated by the telegraphic information received from nothern sources, aud we may expect to hear startling Dews from that direction before the close of the present week.?Memphis Appeal, 6th inst Ex-Gov. Louis E. Lowe, of Maryland, being a staunch Southerner, has sold out his property in that Stataf and taken refugo in Virginia. Tall Stealing Somewhere.?The Herald has the following very significant inquires: "How is it that the war to suppress rebellion has already cost between 8150,000,000 and 8200,000,000, when the hole Crimean war coast England scacely so much ? > Who is accountable for the prodigious outlays that have been made with such compar- ; atively small results? Mr. Van Wyck's committee cannot proceed too vigorously with its labor." S&" We have heard it remarked that General Beauregard, on the battle-field at Manassas, called a council of officers, in which it was resolved that they would not, i under any circumstances, surrenderor give 1 up the field. Whether true or not, it ib j like our stubborn Southerners. The North i may as well understand us, that the South I will never give up. Our very women will 1 go to the battle field, if need be, before the South shall be conquered. The Indiana volunteers engaged in the Western Virginia raid and the Rich Mountain affair, have returned home, and but precious few will ever go baok. Many of them have been heard to deolare that their casualties were ten times as much as represented in the despatches, and that the Georgia boys were as brave as lions, and nothing but overwhelming numbers won the day. Rail Road Accident.?We learn that an excursion train for Sandy Spring, on the Blue Ridge Railroad, was thrown from the track, yesterday morning, near Anderson Court House, by running over a cow, and we regrret to state that Eddie Monro, a son of Judge Munro, was instanly killed. A negro man was also killed and two others dangerously injured. ? Guardian. W&* Gen. Beauregard has caused three traitors to be hung recently, having receivjed the most indubitable evidence of their treachery. One of the parties was an engineer on the Manassas Gap Rail Road, another a preacher of the Gospel, and the third a farmer. They had all furnished valuable aid to the enemy.

THE Legislature having, at its late session, authorized the Issue of Bond* to the amount A of iJ675,000, bearing an interest of scven per cent., for the J purpose of providing the funds required to sustain the State ~ In the act of resuming her rights of sovereignty, this Bank is now prepared to dispose of the Bonds. They are issaed in sums of $50, $100 and $500. An opportunity It thus afforded every citizen to make a secure and profitable invest meut, while contributing aid to the cause In which the State is engaged. With the view of enabling citizens In any part of the State to share in the Loan, the Clerks of the Courts of the several districts have been required to open \ books of subscription for tbe Stock. Suitable arrangements will be made for furnishing the Bonds on trie receipt of the money, at an early day after each subscription has been made. Engagements for the purchase of Bonds may be made at the Bank, or any of its Branches. It Is probable that, at the next session of the Legislature, those parties who desire It may have their Bonds convened into Stock. C. M. FURMAN, President. February 28 9 tf : THE STATE OF SO.
