- Rorrible — DlSclostires - In Relation- to a POliticar-Prison. - We speak wholly. Of the political prison, the prison o f f State, - as we know nothing Whatever of what 'occurs in the prison where "rebels taken in arms' are kept— that is . " the prisoneriOf war," • • . . It must not be forgotten that there have been front six to seven hundred political : prisoners at 'Camp*Chase at a time; and although several hundred have been lately discharged without trial, there - are yet there some four hundred—one or tw hun dred of these have arrived there within a _few days past. -These - men are, taken front their homes, some from their beds at. night, sonic from their houses in daytime, . 'and a great many of them_are . picked up ti in their fields at. wthk, and' never suffered to see their families before being spirited - • Off to Ohio and incarcerated.in- this cele brated Bastile, Which will soon be .as ; fa- Moils as Olnintzltself. Our_Ohicians are put into the.sainepris . :on With these men from other States, and frbm them we have learned sonic facts • which the people of Ohio ought to know. Many of. these men have been kept in. this prison - for over one= Year, a great many for five, six, seven and eigb, months, without even seeing outside, or . being al lowed thcommunicate_personaly with any one; not eveo wife, child, father,. mother, or. stranger. • They are 'furbished with nothing lAA,• a single blanket, even these cold nights un-- - less they are able to purchase additional comforts with money. they may be able to_ command. Many are poor men, amid nn able to purchase ; they were not permitted to-bring along a change of clothing, and many had -on when - seized - nothing but tsummer Wear, and that, has become filthy, worn out, and scarcely hangs- upon their back 4. ,• - - They have no beddingand are thereno e compelled to sleep on the bare boards.— They have'not enough wood- furnished to keep fires up' all night,; and hence the suf fering is intensified by the cold weather. If they attempt, after night,- to walk wont in the yard to take off the chills' of the dreary night, they are instantly threatened-. tobe,shot by,the guards, as ordered by those in command. _ • rie: , Allen, of Columbia connty, - Ohio, - said he laid on a bare board until his hips were black and blue. The typed furnished -. them is four feet long, and they are com-, polled, each mess, to chop it. up- for.'them selves, and,. the-provisions being furnished, ra', they have to cook for themselves.-- Reooleet,alwayi, thatithese are Ipolitical prisoners; against•whOm tIO one appears as' accuser, - and no trial is permitted. - - The prison has become filthy—awfully so—and the rats are in droves. If the plus- oner‘ attempt to kill one of these ratsithey are forbidden, and threatened with being • • shot instantly. Recollect, always, as we • said above, these are political prisoners, •: against whom some malicious negro wor _shipp,er has created a suspicion: of disloy alty,-but *hose name is kept a secret, and' hence there, can be no trial. - The prison* is perfectly alive. -with lice,: . and no chance is given - to escape the living Vermin. deadman, one of the prisoners, was the - ether dli.:;- - carried out to the dead yard, and laid there over night, and when., visited in the•mornifig by Other I prisoners, who heard that there was a dead man there they found thehair on his head' stiff with lice atanits—the -lice creeping into, his • eyes in : reat number, and, as he lay with his month open, the lice were thick crawl ins- in and Out of-his open mouth.. • Not 10ng , , - since two of the prisoners got into a scuffle in trying their strength, and finally got into a fight, as was supposed, and, several other persons :rushed to part them, when the guards from the look-out .above fired them, killing art .old man _named Jones, and a ball - grazing the skull of another, he fell, and -it was suposed at first that he was killed also.; ancither :of the balls passed through a -board at the of a sick man in , the hospital, and only escaped him by a few, inches>. -The two Men in the Scale were not hurt..

Orpheus C.Berr on the President's etnn pensated 'Emancipation Project. _ Orpheus-C. Ke'rr, in a late letter from. Washinglon, takes off the President's sil ly reasoning on the subject Of compensa ted emancipation in good style. Though the writer deals entirely in the absurd and ridiculous; he could not conjure up, From his _fertile imagination,-anything morl. so, than some -of Old Abe's twaddle.. He therefore quotes largely from the genuine message, as will be seen by comparison. - We hardly know which is entitled to the (neater credit for, this'burlesque on com mon sense—Abe-or Orpheus. But as Abe is - the author of this style of reasoning, as I well as of most of thereasoning itself, we are dispoied to give: him the greater praise; and- also for another reason—he 1 was in earnest, while Orpheus was only iu fun. . - - - Here is the extract:;' , " Passing over the organization of Senate and House, whiCh.griggesfed thoughps of ancient Roine, about the time ,siaa was saved by geese, I shall proceed to notice the Message which . our Honest Abe fired into Congress from his in tellectual breast-' works during the weet. • Y,ou have undoubtedly read this Abe L paper, my boy; in the reliable morning journals„ . making due 4llowancefor the ty pographical "outrages ',committed by prin ters of opposite' politics; but there was one portion of it gotten up for the Honest Abe by the Chaplain Of the Mackerel. Bri /1 Ode, and this portico is:so mutilated in the publishing that I cannot refrain from giving you the true v rsion. Speaking of the cost to the country of emancipa tion withcomPensation, the. Chaplain wrote: • '"Certainly. it' is not -so'.easy to pay something as it . iato pay nothing ; but it is easier to pay ;.,a, small sum' thanitTis. to paya large, soul; and it is easier. to pay any bill when we Irai-e the money,.than it is to pay a smaller bill when we have no mo ney. Compensated emancipation requires no more ineney than - would' be necessary ti:r the, progress of remunerated enfran chisement, uillich :would not .close before the'end of five hundred' years.- At that tirne we shall undoubtedly have five hun dred- times' as many people as; we now have, prOVided that no -one • dies in the treantiine; and supposing the premium on gold to:increase in the same ratio as it has increased since our lastcensus was ta ken-, the premium op the specie belonging toTive hundred times our preSent popula tion will be amply sufficient to pay for all persons- of African descent.. "I do not state this inconsiderately.=. At.thetianie ratio of increase as we-now realize, American gold . willsoon be 'worth more than all 'Europe. 'We have ten mil; lions nine hundred - and sixty-three thous and miles, while'Enrope has three million eight hundred thousand, - -and yet tilt av erage premium on specickin smile of the States is already above that of : Enrope.— I Taking-the brokers, in . the aggregate, I find that one gold alai'. is worth $ . 1,30 in one year, ~ - - .. - It will worth $2,60 in two years,.. " • •" , 3,90. in :3 • " ' 5,26 in 4 " • .„. 6,50 in 5 - 4 k, This shows.a' great increase. -If a :gold dollar is worth $6,50 in ftVe years, it will, of course, be worth $3,250, or five hund red times as:much -in five hundred years. Thus, when our populatioilis five hundred times as great as at'present, supposing each man to have a gold dollar, the prem him of $3,250 on 'his gold dollar will cm-. ble such man to purchase: thirty-two and la half persons -of AfricanAbscent from the lloyal s.aveholders of our border states at 1 . 51.90 a piece, though he would be .virtual ly expending but one dollarlimielf. - "This scheme Of emancipation would certainly makethe war shorter than it has now a ,prospect, of being. In, a word, it Ishews that a dollar will be much harder to , pay for the war than' will be. a dollar for emanc t ipatien.ori the proposed plan." - Yoli will . -observe, my boy, - that this - same great, mathematical idea is advanced -lin the message as it is ,printed; but our honest Abe has chosen to vary -the terms somewhat. If you have a-gold dollar,,my boy, salt it down for five- hundred years,, and and -some future generation of offspring will call you blessed for leaving them 43,- 250 in postage stamps. • ; , 44 44 Brains at Washington. .The NeW York Express thinks,. that no change of millitary :generals will better the condition of things—no General Burn side will.better Gen.

A Short time ago it was stated, on what was said to be reliable authority, that there . . were 180,000 soldiers, whose names , ap pear on the muster absent without leave ; and the •remark is attributed to the' President, that " the army is less in num-, bers to-day than when the last levy was made for 300,00 men." When we add to this that the President of the U. S. San itary Commission reported, a- few weeks since, 15.0,000 sick and 'wounded soldiers in the hospitals, theincompetency of the administration to -manage the war, and its ibattention to proper duties, becomes at once apparent. l and not the discipline and health ;f l thenrmy, has' en grossed their attend n.

I tilletiWelledB is promoted byits artificialartitization. • A few words about the quality ands value of this land: for cultivation, of which we have some strong proof. ' . Our first visit was to William I). Wilson, in Franklin' tow/Ishii), Gloucester county, ivho purchased some eight: miles north of Millville, about three years ago,.for the purpose of establishing a rteatn•ntill, to Work up the tim ber into lumber, to send off by the 'll ew railroad, as well as'the firewood and coal, for winch .he built a truck one mile Unda,lialf long, Ile also furnished sixteen tulles Of the road with acs, and had no doubt made' the mill prof itable, though his main object was to open a farm, hay ing become convinced that the soil was very valuable for. cultivation. In this he: liar not been disappoirited'oe some of his crops prove. - For instance, the second time. of cropping 306 bushels of potatoes on one acre, worth 64) cents iatithel in the field. •This year, seven acres, without manure, produced 356 bushels of oats. In, one field,th§ first crop was potatoer,planted,among the'routs, and 7 yielded 75 brisheir. The potatoes, scare dug. and 'wheat sown, and yielded DI bushels • and the stubble turned under and sown to beckwheativh•ich yielded 33,?i' bushels; and then the ground was sown to clover -and. timothy, which gave as a tirrt erop,23§f tons per acre. - The fertilizers applied to these crops were : first. ashes from clearings; second. 22.5 pimp& of euperphosphate . of limeq third. 200.poundr Peruvian guano ',•• and thenlso bushels of '. slated lints has been spread upon the closer since it - was mewed, and turned in for wheat. . . Mr. Wilson's growing crops, and' the wheat stubble:of ' the present reason, 'all indicate his land as productive,as :•anv part of the State. • At MAY Barrow's, an old style jersey,woman'fartner; -several miles south of Mr. Wilson. r, we were so particu larly struck with the tine appearence.ef tt field (Agora, that we stopped to inquire of the hired mau.how it was., prodneed. We found that the landhad been the year but one before in Wheat, so wu , with clover,. and this cut sine. { reason, and last spring plowed once, with ono •, poor old. nag," and Owned with corn. ' , . 1. •s but you =inured 'high, we suppose ? " we said interrogatively„ and got his reply I '• Wall, y•titi see we couldn't, done that, 'cause we hadn't but forty-one horse loads altogether, for 23 tierce; , and ire wanted the most on for the truck." . 1 1 ' truck consisted of beets, carrots, cabbage, merPni, cucumbers, &c.. and a very productive patch of Lima beans, grown for marketing. So we were satisfied that'l the soil was not unfertile, even unaided by clover,..which had fed the corn, because the "truck patch" had net been ' ! clovered, and had been in.eultivation 10 - igeneugh to ob literate all .rigns of the forest. I Our next visit \vas to the large farm of Aodrew five miles north of Millvi Ile, from half to a mile east of ,the railroad, and just about in the centre of Mr. Sharp commenced work here in' December, 1•§58, on , 270 acres.

I:ousiderable part of the land was-cleared teethe Plow at I,u an acre. and on some of It the first crop was buck wheat, limed with 50 ;bushels in powder per acre. fhte cropp may be put in from July 4th to 20th, and yields from 20 to 30-bushels per acre, harvested in November, When the land being solved with 150 pounds of Peruvian guano and-seeded.with rye, yielded 12 to 15 bushels peracro and $lO worth of straw. 'file rye stubble turned:after cutting. off a large growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with guano and seeded to wheat, gave 15 or. 141 bushels. The crop which he was threshing while we were there prom ises more, of a very plifrup grain, and. the straw is (very heavy. - We went over the stubble, and'found the clover, and ',or a. timothy, from seed-sowed last spring, , on the wheat With- Out harrowing, looking.se well as ive ever saw It upon any. old eultivatetrfarm,.and with a little work'dotteJn the winter toclear off some rootsand rot stumps:, and setting stakes to mark permanent ones iive will he able to cut the crop ntost year wi h a mowin g machine and we NV !II gii trantee two tons per acre, if he will give theover plus if it overruns the estimate. , - Part of the land was planted with potatoes for a first crop, which yielded - 120 bushels per acre. It vast then limed with fifty bushels per acre, and seeded with Wheat and clover, yielding an average of over 15 bushels per `acre, andithe clover now looks beautiful. - II _Other portions have been planted. with corn as h first crop, which yielded 30 bushels of yellow flint corn. andie second crop 40 trisitels, and-a third crop, treated to 150 pounds of guano, we are sure no one would estimate less • , than .40 bushels per were.
