[TEKESTINGEROM dixie. wnw THE UNION PBISONEBS ESCAPED HOW tEBBY PBIBON. rVrom the Bichmond Enquirer, Fab.l2] Tha escape of tlie Yankee officers from, the Lobby contused ?o be the liveliest topic of yesterday. fSoTHnim-tnres were rife as to the means of the e«£pe o J therthan those described in the published accounts, The sentinels, as usual, were enriched 'with laurels that their native modesty, it nothing else, would cause, them to decline. After all, however, this great delivery does not exceed in. srlorv or secrecy the escape of John Morgan from, the Ohio Penitentiary, and. yet neither the con nivance nor carelessness of sentinels or others have received any credit from Morgan or his his torians, Yankee or Southern. It is mostprooable, in fact, that this distinguished General is, more than anybody else, responsible for the suc cess with -which Streight and his chums made their exit from the Libby.' The experience and example of the one was an admirable lesson to the other. 1 It appears that the tunnel under Twentieth street was dug entirely .with an old hinge, and the • loosened earth—a brittle, marly sand—removed, with an old sugar scoop stoleu from the hospital quarters. As the tunnel progressed, the miner took with him, besides his tools, an old-fashioned knapsack made upon a wooden frame, to which a cord was attached. When he filled this with earth, it was drawn out by an accompjice who re mained in the cellar, the contents deposited safely ont of the way, and it was then shove'd back to the digger with a pole. The basement itself, in which this work was carried on,, was kept constantly locked, never used, and the windows being tightly nailed,it was as dark as pitch. The principal in the tunneling operation was Captain. J. N. Johnson, of the 6th Kentucky Cavalry, who is among the escaped. His accomplices were diiferent, as occasion or pri vate arrangement demanded. On several occasions it had been observed that this Johnson was absent from roll-call, and now and then two or three others, a circumstance not very gratifying to the clerk having the roll to. call, who, o course, would have it to go over again. "A short time after he would appear and make his presence known, and would give as at excuse that it was only a little fun— “just deviling tne clerk. * 9 On one occasion,, when t^p:-thing had occurred: once too often, he was called up for punishment,: When he plead very earnestly, with a broad, good natured grin, that he was “only joking, and was rolled up in his blanket when his. name was called.’ * He was excused this time with a warn ing. He took good care to keep better hours in quarters, while the work continued beiow to its completion. _ ■ Immediately after the escape was discovered and the first to go in pursuit,Mr. John Ligon, Assistant Clerk, with Orderly Hatches, warden H. R. Turner and two policemen went off in the direction of the Peninsula, and up to yesterday evening had signalized their promptness and energy by the. recapture of eight of the fugitives, who they picked up on the'Toads. Fourteen others were brought in during "Wednesday night and yesterday, by pickets on the Ohickahominy. Several were captured at Bottom’s Bridge, some in Hanover, but the larger number only a few miles from the City., Intelligence was obtained that a number of them were trying to get through iu the direction of Fredericksburg. Another batch, recaptured in that direction, is looked for to-day We give below .the list of those who had, up to six o’clock last evening, been returned to their old quarters at the Jjibbv. The energy and solicitude of Major Turner are subjects of deserved commendation. : One of the captures of Wednesday was made by * *an American citizen of African descent. ’ 1 The dusky captor was engaged inamatutinal “dig” in his potato patch, when he observed the fugitive officer streaking it across the field. Seeing that he wore suspiciously blue garments, the darkey hailed him, and asked him .where he was “gwinel” Something to the ef fect of “nowhere,” being the reply, the darkey, with courage and patriotism worthy ot immortality, brought his hoe to a “charge,” and responded, “Yes ?you is, dough—you done broke .out o’ one o* dem prisons—come along—yon got to go vnd me.” He marched him to the house, handed him over to his master, and returned to his potato patch, covered with glory. The Yankee arrived, under due guard, yesterday morning. Captured on Wednesday. —Gr. Starr, Captain, 104th Hew York: W. B. Pierce, Ist Lieutenant, lith Kentucky Cavalry; H.

CATARRH OF THE BLADDER, STRANGURY. For these diseases it is truly a sovereign remedy, &ud too much cannot be said in its praise. A single dose has been 1 nown to remove the most ur gent symptoms. Are you troubled with that distressing pain iu the small of the back and through the hips! A teaspoon ltd a day of the Constitution Water will relieve you like magic. PHYSICIANS Hare long since given up the use of buchu, cubebs and juniper in the treatment of the diseases, and only use them for the want of a better remedy CONSTITUTION WATER has proved itself equal to the task that has e volved upon it. DIURETICS irritate and drench the kidneys, and by constant use soon lead to chronic degeneration and continued disease. We present the Constitution Water to the public with the eonvictiohthat it has no equal in relieving the class of .diseases for which it has been found so eminently successful for curing, and vre trust that we shall be rewarded for our efforts in placing so valuable a remedy in a form to meet the require ments of patient and physician. IN DTSMENOSRHGEA, OR PAINFUL MEN SIR U ATI ON; AJND MENORRHAGIA, Both diseases arising from & faulty secretion of the menstrual fluid—in ease of being too little, and accompanied by sever* pain, and the other & too profuse secretion, which will be speedily cored by the Constitution Water. The disease known as FALLING- OF THE WOMB, which is the result of a relaxation of the ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense of heaviness and dragging painsin the back and sides, and at times accompanied by sharp, lanci nating or shooting pains through the parts, will, in all cases, be cured by this medicine. There is another class of symptoms arising from IRRITATION OF THE WOMB, which physi cians call nervousness, which word covers np much ignorance, and in nine cases out of ten the doctor does r.oireally kuow whether the symptoms ere the disease or the disease the symptoms. We can only enumerate them here I speak more particularly of Cold Feet, Palpitation of the Heart, Impaired Memory, Wakefulness, Flashes of Heat, Languor, Lassitude and Dimness of Vision. SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION, Which iu the unmarried female is a constantly re curring disease, and through neglect the seeds of more grave and dangerous maladies are the result; and as month after month passes without an effort being made to assist nature, the suppression be comes chronic, the patient gradually loses her ap petite, the bowels ~are constipated, night sweaia come on, and scnrwnptten finally ends her career READ!

Gregg—Dear Sir: In February, 1861, I was afflicted with sugar diabetes, and for five months I passed more than two gallons of water in twenty-lour hours. I was obliged to get up as often as ten or twelve times cfaring the night, and in five months I lost about fifty pounds in weight. During the month of July, 1861, I pro cured two bottles of Constitution Water, and in two davs after using it I experienced relief, and after taking two bottles I was entirely cured; soon alter regaining my usual good health. Tours truly, J. V. L. DEWITT. BosTOir Cobxbbb, N. Y., Dec. 27, 1861. Wm. H. Gregg * Co.—Gents—l freely give you liberty to make use of the following Certificate of the value of Constitution Water, which I can re commend in the highest manner: My wife was attacked with pain in the shoulders, whoie length of thebaek, and in her limbs, with Palpitation of tte iuart and irritation cf Ac Bladder. I called a physician, who at tended her three months, when he left her worse, than he had found her. I then employed one of the best physicians I could find, who attended her lor about nine months, and while she was under. nis care she did not suffer quite as much pain. He finally gave her up and said, Acr case was in curable. *‘F or, ’ 7 saia he,- :*<*&* Aas such a combination of complaint*, that medm'nt given for one operates against some o her ±of her difficulties.** About this time she commenced the use of the Comstitutioh Wa.tbr, and, to our utter astonish ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly under its treatment, and now superintends entirely her domestic affairs. She has not uucen any of tbe Constitution Wathb, for about four weeks, and we axe happy to say that it has produced a perma nent cure. . WM.M. VAN BENSCHOTEN. Wethersfield, Conn., March?, 1863. Dr. W. H. Gregg—Dear Sir—Having seen vour advertisement of “Constitution Water,” reeun mended for inflammation of the Kidneys and Irri tation of the Bladder, having suffered for the past three years, and tried the skill of a number of phy sicians with only temporary relief, I was induced to try your medicine. I procured one bottle from your agents at Hanford, Messrs. Lee, Sisson & Co., and when I had need half of it, to my sur prise I- found a great change in my health. I have used two-bottles of it, and am where I never ex feeted lo be in my . life, well, and in good spirits. cannot express my gratitude for it; I feel that it is ail and more than you recommend it to be. Mi y the blessing of God ever attend you in your labixs of lore. Tours, truly, LEONARD 8. BIGELOW* THESE ARE FACTS ENOUGH. We present the Constitution Water to the publio with the conviction! that it has no equal in reliev ing the class of diseases for which it has been found so eminently successful in curing; and we trust that we shall be rewarded for our eflorts in placing so valuable a remedy in a form to meet the requirements of patients and physicians.
