TJTWe publish the following extract
from a letter we recei veil from J. E. Morgan,
Co. B. Ott Penn'a. Reserves. Mr. Morgnn
is a son of Charles Morgan, formerly of Point
township. His letter is dated at St. John's
College, Annapolis, Md. His experience as
a prisoner In the "Bull Ten," at Anderson
v ill, fully corroborates the story of the cruel
and barbarous treatment of our prisoners :
"But tn one week wo were lodged in the
"Bull Pen" down in Georgia. Going there
we were packed into the cars to suffocation
dare not r'se up even to breathe fresh air.
We almost perished. We marched from
fputtsvlvania to Gordonsvillo without food.
Took the cars there and went to Andersou
ville, Un., via Lynchburg and Danville, Va.,
with little more than tio rations. The Hebs
are universally for "swopping," and by this
mear.K many obtained something to cat. lint
tons, watches, knives, ranteens, badges, pic
tures, eu, would olton bring good prices
iK'iiiL' in urent deinuml. In tins starving
condition, iliiint every valuable article was
tltsposcil ot by the prisoners lor a bite, two
or three bite just as it happened to bo w ith
tne guard. An hour or two utter we readi
ed the Pen !it Andcrsonville. we were turned
I in. This aw I'u 1 place sienied to be already
packed 1. 1 ot-rtlnwing. Wo wero packed
I iu sir closely that we could scarcely breathe.
The man vuio had a blanket was fortunate
; as the Hebs robbec'. us of many comforts
when they captured us. At night wc gather
ed up some corn hulls, made coffee and
mush ot them and uf course, "to the hungry
soul every bitter thing ia sweet." ll was
with difficulty that wo found a few spare
feet, of grouud to lie down Upon at night,
but next day found it .and 'occupied the
same. Several of us spread a blanket over
us after procuring a couple short sticks
which required an extra compensation,
but it would not protect us from either rain
or the scorching suh nothing to lie upon
or cover with. Not even a twig nor spear
of crass. 'acli hard shower our cave was
flooded. Twenty tWo r;.n"tf days durum i
the l
month of June from which 1 cannot so
bad a cold that it was critical case With mc
uud I ascertained some fears of not recover
ing. But the will of Providence was other
wise. No tent nor shelter among the many
thousands. Shortness of rations heat of
sun chill and dampness of night and storm
scurry aud diarrhoea, rendered the men
incapable of taking care of themselves but
lie down uud die. Covered with vermin,
many arc preyed upon many days before
death relieves them from their extreme ago
ny mere wrecks of humanity, of which
deaths to the average- of one hundred per
day was a very correct estimate. Many
became so troubled with sore mouths that
corn cakes-were too rough a material. Oilier
poor victims of misfortune could not get
enough wood to boil the meal so they too
were candidate for tho chanal house. The
dirt and pitch pine smoke made a man look
like a negro and a pretty black one too. The
stockade contained about 20 or more ncrcs
on which were thirty thousand men. If a
prisoners escuped, the hundred to which he
belonged was put ou half rations till caught.
Every day one, two or three prisoners were
shot for approaching too near the "dead
line" as it is called. This is a pole on crotch
es, about fifteen feet from the stockade. At
times a man walking in the path near it was
shot aud at the vratcrinir lilace especially
was one in danger of his life. "A batch"
of prisoner arriving and not knowing the
danger at this place, might reach an inch or
two above tho lino when ho would receive
a ball from tho guards musket. Mauv ft
miin,wtio dreamed of no danger or 'Vitcuco
whilst dipping water from their fi'.'Jhy creek
at tho dead line (as there was Vittle chance
and no other provision ms.e for getting it
elsewhere.) crimsoned ae Watcr with "his
blood, his brains ly'.ug scattered around the
fatal spot. Shot, oy the rebel wretch mount
ed ou a scaffoVvi along outside tho stockade
who, whe'i committing this cold blooded
murder was relieved and said to be reward
ed a thirty days furlough nud thirty dol
1'ra. Tho noli ttvic body ol men inside or
ganized into squads to the peace and keep
the streets clear. The origin of this is from.
Andersville through great necessity. A mob
organized among themselves at the first, and
watched for men who had money, watches,
blankets, etc., would seize them and rob
them in dayiight in a crowd, if he made nuy
resistance thev would kmok him down with
a club or anything handiest. At night they
would murder for money. So great did
the danger become that no one was safe at
any time or place. Complaints were fre
quently made to the commander of the pri
son, but all to no purpose, till at lust he sent
us armed assistance and the nien,piincipaliy
the wronged, with clubs hunted these vil
lains out like dogs. The work went on ra
pidly tilt a great number were arrested,
takco out and required to prove thei.iBC-lves
clear of the charges made against them. Six
were charged with serious crimes, condemn
ed by a jury of our own menput iu irons
after which they wero brought into -camp
and hung. Since .tout time the police- have
been able to keep the rioters down."

Goldwin Smith, w ho has Just returned to
England, while here visiting the Army of
the Potomac, wroto a letter to tho London
Xeiet, from which w e mako tho following
extract;
"I saw, with the great interest, the negro
troops encamped close to the scene of one
of their most gallant exploits, the storming
of tho entrenchments on New Market Height.
1 here can be no doubt, I think, that these
men are now the acknowledged and respect
ed brethren inarms of the whites. This,
to give tho Beast as well as the Devil his
due, is the work of General Butlar. That
man's indomitable energy and iron will
(qualities written on his face more plainly
than on any other fnce I ever beheld, unless
it be the portrait of Ciounvull) have crush
ed all the obstacles that stood in the way
of this great moral and social revolution.
Ferro its libcrtat proteniet the bayonet shall
be tneir liberator is the motto ol the medal
he has caused to be struck for the negro
soldiers; and he has made this motto a prac
tical truth. I will not attempt to anticipate
the calm judgment of history in an hour of
passion by discussing the controverted parts
ot ins career.
"To me he seems to be in all point9, good
and evil, the modal of a revolutionary chief.
He was the first throughly to grasp the idea
ot the revolution being lultilled by tne vir-
tual destruction of slavery; he is the first, us
yon .see by his New lork speech, to an
nounce in broad terms a policy of amnesty
and oblivion. Like Duntoti, he has walked
straight on his wild way,' fearless of danger
and somewhat reckless ot opinion. I do
not worship revolutionary characters.

Francis P. Blair, Sr., and Montgomery,
his son, have gone to the front, and have
been spending some days with General
Grant. This visit is made the foundation
of many peace rumors, which find currency
in some of the Washington papers and in
the correspondence of the New Vork jour
nals. The Aittiunid IntiUi'jchctr has gathet
ed up and silted these rumors, which, it
says, jiave "all an important political char
acter,'' and presents the two subjoined,
"obtain the most credit."
1. That Jeir Davis sent a special invita
tion to Mr. Blair, by flag of truce, to visit
him at Richmond, though for what object
can only be guessed at. The quidnuncs
chum that the result of tho interview,
should it be held', will have importunt bear
ings upon the relations between the North
ern and southern Stales.
2. the 'other rumor is that Mr. Blair
chnrged with nn important commi;0ion,
which can only be executed by direct tom.
munications with the confederate uuthoiities.
The peculiar rehitious existing between Mr.
Blair and the President .oiid to obtain more
general credence for "lis report.
The New York i'ril.une, com
commenting on
these rumors on,i ti10
departure of the
Messrs. fslf.
says ;
-uidcrstood that tlieir errand is one
f ' eaee ; or, perhaps we should more ac
curately say, to see whether any termination
of our national struggle is now attainable.
We presume their mission is not in tcims
official; but it were absurd to. pretend, con
sidering who they arc, and what are their
personal relations to the President, that it
is unauthorized. While we consider Rieh
nioinl about the least hopeful point iu the
Confederacy ut which to seek unacceptable
peace, aud regret that the Messrs. Blair had
not proceeded, or oll'ered to proceed, direct
to Raleigh instead; unit while we can scarce
ly encourage hopes of uuy Immediate pacifi
cation a a result of tins mission, we jet re
joice that it has departed, and are confident
that its influences will be sulutnry and its
ultimate consequences beneficent 1'or the
Southern people need, above al things, to
be undeceived with regard to the origin,
impulses, ami purposes of the war for the
Union. They have so long been incessant
ly tolu that the North is lighting for subju
gation for unrestricted dominion for
spoliation, devastation, and rapine that
thousands who should know a great deal
better actually seem to believe it. The visit
of the Messrs. Blair to Richmond, and the
propositions which they will there (doubt
less) submit to the Confederate chief, can
not be kept from the knowledge of the
South, and cannot fail to be largely in
fluential in disubusing the Southern mind.
If it shall thence uppcar thnt thu North
wants nobody enslaved, but everybody
li Iterated as uobody despoiled, but the
rights and earnings of every human being
placed under the protection of just and
equid laws, then we say it is scarcely possi
ble that the tierce maligmty, the vengeful
hate, which have thus for animated the rebel
masses in their war upon their own country,
can retain their virulence unmodified. Aud
ut nil events, in this mission the civilized
world will see, even though Dixie should
obstinately bandage its own eves, the evi
ilCiife of a spirit pervading our loyal people
and their Government quite different from
that persistently ascribed to them by their
enemies. We are therefore inclined to at
tribute a profound significance to tho visit
of tLe Messrs. Blair to Richmond, audio
expect from it beneficent, even though not
immediate nor very pa'pablo results.

go is considered the greatest lumber market
in the world, and tlieic are but few who
comprehend the amount of business done iu
that line iu this great commercial ''empo
rium of tho West. The lumber sold by the
Chicago merchants, the greater portion of
which is brought from Canada and the cas
teru and western shores of Lake Michigan,
amounts annually to over fifteen millions
of dollnrs. From thirty-two million feet
received in 1847, it has reached tho enor
mous amount of four hundred and forty-four
millions of feet in 1857, a period of teu
years. During tho year 1864 there has been
received 4i0,5!)3,!i33 feet of lumber, 5,875,
000 feet of tinilcr, and 163,008.000 shingles;
besides this, two rafts, aggregating 2,800,000
feet. During the year, 02,541,300 laths,
045,864 posts, aud io,732,000 staves have
been received, besides 401,000 railroad tics.
The Amount remaining ou hand at the pre
sent time is 08,000,0007eet, against 02,000,
000 last year. The increase of stock on
hand over last year is owing to the railroad
being unable to furnish transportation,
which, if afforded, would strip the yards in
a 6hort time. The Cuuadiau lumber is con
sidered superior to American, the fibre beiug
firmer, harder, and straightcr. Owing to
the depreciated condition of our currency,
tht'Te is not as much brought to Chicngo as
formerly, a much more profitable market
being found on the other side of the At

the supply has not increased corresponding

Colonel Mulford, Government Agent for

It is understood that some definite arrange

been unknown. 1 he rebels claim to nave
about tlftv-flvc thousand of our men ic their

by our Government. The rebels, however,
through their agents, have been nud are still
engaged in sending supplies to their pri
soners. ltebel deserters recently reported that the
authorities ut Richmond were discussing
and maturing a movement which would
nstonish the world. This ctfcct would doubt
less be produced if the following, from the
Alexandria ( Va.) Jotimal is worthy of credit
in connection with that subject, namely :
"We learn from persons who seem to have
been 'nforiucd in regard to the secrets of the
Secession lenders, that a plan was recently
discussed by the Rebel authorities, for the
sudden massing of their available force n
Virginia, in the event of affairs becoming
desperate, and murching into the Norlbc'iu

Our renders reniemlier that Oeu. Sherman
captured iiearly thirty thousand bales of
cotton when he captured Savannah. This
cotton, we learn, is to be shipped to 2",v
Vork. The collector of the port tUraper)
has bc-n appointed cotton. geut, and is to
leave tor SavcnimU iu the steamship tir
nadn, which sails for l'ort lloyal to-dav.
The collector will examine tho cotton and
lake testimony in regard to its ownership
previous to its shipmeut to New York. The
sale will be made in iew York, aud all
questions relating to ihe rights of the pre
sent holders tq the proceeds are to be set
llvd hereafter. All the cotton in tho vicinity
of Savannah will take the samo course. A
corps of clerks wilt accompany the collector.
There is much excitement among tho mer
chants of this tity nud New York con
cerning the trade at Savannah. Several
hundred applications lor iufoimution or
permissiou to ship goods have been made,
but uo vessels have been cleared to that
port. It is usually desired to ship general
merchandise. Some vessels, whoto owners
or charterers hope they will eventually be per
mitted to go to Savannah, have already
beeu cleared for l'ort KoyaL It is thought
the port of Snvaunah will be formerally
opened to toiumsrce immerci) immediate
ly after the cotton has been shipped.

vanished in the Scindiun Desert it was
known what he designed, nnd upon what

has been missing for weeks without leaving
H sign of his intent, or even a trace of his
direction.'' Still the Times declines to say
our side has been most successful by the

of biiermau's movement. The Times is
much exercised ut the rebel defeats nnd

A Positivk am Ixikiikstiu Fact.
"Facfs arc stubborn things," no matter
where found. It is a positive and at the
sr.ino thou a most intaresting fact, that our
sick soldiers, who are so fortunate as to ob
tain a -bottle of Pinkebton'b Waiioo and
Calisava Hittkiis, gain strength much
faster, and arc sooner able to do duty ou the
battle-field, than those who are deprived of
tbcjii. This is owing to the stubborn fact
that these Hitters are the greatest renovator
and purifier of blood ever heforo offered to
the public. This is no idlo talk." No one
ever used these Bitters but was highly de-
lighted with the beneficial results arising
from their daily uso. We are glad to learn
that steps sro being taken to supply the
sick soldiers in our camps and hospitals
with these Hitters. It is a humane and be
nevolent object. Druggists and wholesale
dealers always have these Bitters for sale.
The genuine article- has the name of John
Pinkerfon blown on each bottle.
