Interesting Statement of a Southern I THE LATEST NEWS
Refugee—A Loyal Lady's Experience
at Charleston.
AY TELEGRAPH.
Gee. R. Baker, Esq., the well known author,
has just published an interesting etatement of •
OUR, SPECLAL DLSPATOIEES,
facts obtained from a loyal Southern lady who
escaped to the North, and Is now in Philadel
phia. Ile say.:
The common understanding in the North
is that the southern people are united against
us ; that men, women and children regard us
with a hatred which their traitoroua friends
are ever ready to justify, and at which even
loyal minds do not wonder. This idea will
be somewhat modified by narrative. Even
in the City of Charleston, where the first
' -Taring blow was struck against the National
authority—a city which le now looked upon
as the very focus of the rebellion—there ro
tate a number of loyal people who are bold
enough to perform the duties of humanity,
despite the jeers and threats of their follow
citizens. The lady whose history forms the
subject of my communication was %consistent
and out-spoken Union woman from the time
of the secession convention until the day of
her departure from Charleston ; nor was she
without allies, who sustained her with their
sympathy, and put into her hands the meant
by which she aecemplished great good towards
our Buffering prisoners of war.
The facts which the lady relates are sus
tained by documentary evidence, principally
letters from the prisoners themselves, which
would fill a small volume. All these I base
examined with ears, and compared with the
clear and truthful story of the lady, ee that I
have not a doubt of the aecutricy of my state
ment. Many of the letters are from officer.
of the army and navy of the United States,
who were known to be prisoners of war in
Charleston at the time of the occurrence, and
they all breaths one spirit of thankfulness to
wards the good angel which Providence sent
to them in the midstof horrors without parallel
anywhere but in the South. Some of the
prisoners deems that they owe their lives
entirely to her exertions, and all of them ex
press warmth of gratitude that mast arise
from very deep feelings.
• When the first Union prisoners were sent to
the Charleston jail the univereal sentiment
amongskthe rebel citizens was, "Now we have
some of those Yankees in our power, lot us
Lost them according to their deserts." To
the shame of the soldiers who had the prison
ers in charge, they permitted themselves to
be influenced by the popular clamor.
The prisoners were treated with the utmost
rigor; or rather, they were shut up in a filthy
I jail, and systematically, neglected in every
way, estate of things to which any treatment,
however severe, would have been merciful.
They were stripped of their clothing, they
were starved, they were almost deprived of
water, they were never permitted to pass the I
confines of their filthy chamber, they were
abused in person, and they were threatened
with ihstant death on the slightest infraction
of the military rules of the jail. Hearing of
this deplorable state of affairs, the lady before
mentioned obtained scents to the prisoners by
means not necessary to specify, and found
such condition to be even worse than it had
been described to bor. She immediately set
herself to the task of atiewinting their suffer
ing. She secretly collected from the 1:11600
men of Charleston thirty-five hundred dollars,
to which sum she added five hundred dollars
of her own small fortune, and with this money
ebe from time to time purchased such pro
visions and comforts as oho thought necessary
for the prisoners, and privately introduced her
stores daring her daily visits to the jail. Nor
did her kind Offices end here. She and her
children faithfully nursed those of the prison
ers who were suffering with wounds or with
disease, and expended their own domestic
luxuries in alienating the exacting wants of
the sick bed. These scenes of misery were
sufficiently trying to a kind-hearted women,
bat more awaited her.
On the arrival at Charleston of the prison
er. from the captured steamer Isaac Smith,
the lady prepared herself with a large supply
of provisions, and entered the jail. The first
eight that met her eyes was the body of a stal
wart, athletic man, lying upon the floor, per
fectly naked and apparently dead. On stop
ping to examine him, She tound that hew4.s
not dead, but in a stupor, produced by ex
treme suffering. She applied a large bowl of
tea to his lips, when, to her astonishment, he
seized it and drained it almost at a draught.
This man had not had so much as a morsel of
food or a cup of water for three days. lie
was terribly wounded upon the head, and
from the wide and putrid wound the washed 0
double-handful of flies and maggots Owing
to her judicious nursing, this man lived to
thank his benefactress. The second man the ,
saw lying in a corner of the prison, almost
naked, with his limbs drawn up and twisted to- '
gether as if he were then in the agonies of death
Observing that the lady was making towards
this sad object, the jailor said: "Yen need
not trouble yourself about that The
doctor lays he has not five minutes of life in
him." So the lady passed on to the ether
sufferers who might be benefited by her cars.
She found that they were all in mortal need
of her services ' but none as she afterwards
discovered, to her horror, was in such need
as the miserable man whom eke had jest
passed by, thinking his ease hopeless. on
I visiting the prison the next day, she found
him still lying in the position in which she
had left him, alive and smeared over with the
filth which the poor creature in the frenzy of-
I famine, bad gathered from the floor and at.,
tempted to devour. This man, nothwith-.1
standing all the lady could do for him, died I
at the end of another day. I know that this
scene is revolting to common sensibility, but
I it is not given to excite sentimental pity nor
pleasant tears. It is the stern, hard, terrible
truth, which the men of the north should
know when they come to deal with the mis
creants who inhabit the doomed city wherein
thistragedy was enacted.
As long as the Union prisoners remained in
Charleston the lady was assiduous in her at
tentions to them ; but there came an order
removing them to Columbia. Then the last
tie of her affection Tor Charleston was broken;
she prepared to quit a home which ebe had
occupied for twenty years, and if possible to
make her way to the Nord:.. Already she had
received warnings from her :friends, and no
tices to quit the town from her enemies. She
and her children were pursued with hoots and
jeers as they passed along the etreets. They
were denounced as "damned yankeee," and
on one occasion some chivalric son of the
Smith took up what in their exaggerated lan
guage they term a "rook," and hurled it after
the helpless woman. Gathering together her
movable household goods and her scanty fond,
now much reduced, with her family of feu:
young children, she, at great expense, mad,
her way to Richmond, and was permitted'
cross within lines.

respectably is their aim, as they now full well
Lome their coming doom, which is drawing
nigh. The subterfuges they are resorting to
to reanimate the drooping Write of a despond
ing people portray most forcibly their ex
treme weakness. Through the whole Confed
eracy editorials of all the papers are appeal
ing to the people in meet piteous tones to lend
all their energies to the returning of absent
ees and stragglers to the army. They admit
that half their military force is 'twittered In
fragments over the country, and that It ought
' to be drawn in and consolidated, when the
boastingly assertion Is made, that if this were
done not another man would be required in
the field. This plea is pushed forward to soothe
the restless men woo aro manifesting a spirit
of resistance to conscription. Those who have
escaped the army acorn that all who are now
engaged In mehanical and agricultural pur
suits moot there remain, as their services In
those fields are absolutely needed, and cannot
be spared for any other duty. Mechanics and
farmers aro shirking military duty, and they,
to secure themselves, and to pet their loyalty
above suspicion, raise loud cries against de—
serters, and are using their energies to return
them. This Is nothing:more than disaffection
among the reliels,and it is showing itself more
and more every day much to _the dismay of
the loading traitors.

by certain liurepean powers to sub

position with the deepest regret, and ex
prestos al conviction that such an enterprise
will be universally regarded in America as a

adding a new Ilfo to the Cll.lOl which have

will provoke complications continually perilous
