We reached Williams , port on the Potomac, on the fith of July.— , Hero we had an opportunity of seeing the means employed by the enemy in 'bringing, across supplies to their army. The Qnly thing they had to cross with was an old ferry boat that was forced across the river by the current. This boat would carry about sixty men at a time. They were all one day and nearly alt night taking us over—about three thousand in number. The rebels had laid a pontoon bridge across the river two or three miles beloW Wil liamsport, but'our cavalry had destroyed it a few days before we reached the river. Between Hagerstown and Williamsport we passed over ground that but a few hours before had been the scene of a bloody engagement between Stuart's cavalry and a small force of cur cav alry under Kilpatrick. The 6th Now York ,were in this engagement. The dead men and horses were still lying on the field where they fell; all of the officers and nearly all the privates had been stripped of their clothing by. the rebels, and then ieft unburied. ROW ERR PRISONERS WERE LID " When we reached - the river wo had marched over forty utiles, and in going that distance our captors had given us ono pint of flour, half pound of fresh meat, and a little salt. We mixed the flour on a piece of a barrel head, and, baked on a fiat atone in trout of the fire• IV. PATITSYIU TOWN " The neat day, 'after creasing the river, ore marched fifteen miles, passing through Martins• burg, which is, without exeeption; the most patriotio place I ever saw. Philadelphia is noth ing when compared with it. The people told us to keep up goodopurase, for the 'Stars and Strirns were coming and not far in the roar.--- I was surprised to hear this from. people living in Virgil:4a. There was a whole brigade of rebels encamped in and around the town-at the time, and by their showing us sympathy, the people were not only endangering their property bat their very lives. The ladies had cut and buttered whole barites of bread, and had set them along the sidewalk to be handed out :as we passed. "Before we reached the town the guards had received orders to bayonet the first man who stepped out of the ranks to,get anything from the citizens, and the citvalry guard who were outside of the infantiy were: ordercld to shoot down any nide ris who attempted to give us anything taeat. In spite , of this, there were two or. three cases where young ladies walked right' between the cavalry guard (who had their sabres drawn ready to strike) and gave prison ers bread. There was man enough left in the ragamuffins not to strike a woman. 4,ERiYA 4?' EPAYNTON "Prom the time we crossed the river it was three days before they gave us anything to eat again. The second day after we left kle,rtfnii burg we arrived at Winchester, thirty-four miles from the Potomac, where we halted for one day. Here they gave us one quart of flour and a half pound of fresh beef for two days.— The next day we started for Staunton, ninety two miles distant, which we reached in five days, arriving, there on the 18th of July. THEIR TEDATMIUT AND BUTPLIUND. " "We were then taken two milesie south of the town, where we were marchtid in single file up to a pair of bars; here we found two'officers, surrounded by guards, to search us; they took nil arms, large knives, tents, rubber blankets and canteens, then' turned us into the field like a lot of cattle. Here we were exposed to .`a Virginia sun, for there was Ana - one 'small tree in the field f about two acres For five sue cessive days we had a heavy shower in the afternoon; each time I was wet to the skin, and had to remain So until the sun rose the next morning and dried my wet clothee. the nights were so cold that we could not sleep on the wet ground without blankets, so we were obliged to walk all night to - keep warm. They gave us one pint of Sour and a piece of bacon about one and a half inches square, all covered with vermin, which, with a little salt, constituted our daily rations. We suffered in this manner till the fourth of August, , when they searched us for "greenbacks," and took all the- money they conk' find about us. Then we were shipped for Richmond on some dirt cart, with an old cattle-box of an engine to haul us; IN PENNON AT NICFENOND. "We arrived at Richmond on the morning : of August sth; we were marched through the city to the tobacco warehouses, where we were stowed away, about three hundred men ou a floor, with tour small windows at each end to let in the light and air, and were kindly told by the guard that the first Man who put his head out of the window would be shot We were kept here two days and a night, when we were taken to Bell Isle, about balf a mile from the city. Here:they:had an earthwork thrown up, about as large as that formed byn rifle pit; this enclosed about an acre and a half, and •in this small place they had. . over four thousand. prisoners. Teey had tents- for about three thousand; the remainder bad to lie on the groiand between the tents. Here,at ten o'clock, A, M., they gave us a quarter of a loaf of bread; the loaves weighing twenty. ounces. This gave each man five ounces of bread. Then they gave fifteen pounds of meat, bones anti all, for one hundred men; this, when divided, gave each man about two ounces of meat, making in all seven ounces. This was our breakfast and, dinner together. At four o'clock, P. it., we re ceived five ounces more of bread, and one pint of soup, beans and rice alternately. The beet that I ever hadnf either did not have in it three epooufuls of rice, or beans, and the soup was so thin that if you blew the loam from the top you could pee the hegira or rice at .the bottom. "It nv uncommon etiß see two men .h O /4= 41 etnuoale. he too weak lo walk A numberdied whilel wee there. Olmie of: the men would pickup the bones that, EVENING, SEPTEMBER 22 1863 lay iu the streets, pound them op with a stone, and then suck the pieces to zet what little confishment there was'ieftin them. THE DELIVERA4CE " We remained here till the 28th of August, when we were taken in to Richmond and placed in the tobacco houses again, where vio,,rernain cd until morning, when we were plat in the cars for City 'Paint, which we reached at twelve o'clock. Hero we saw the transport Xew York lying at the dock, with the Stars and. Stripes limiting at her waist head, causing the boys to shout for joy. As soon as we were taken on board we all received a half-loaf, of bread and to piece of boded pork ; the most of them ate his at once, being too hungry to wait and eat a little at a time. pram IN RICHMOND "The rebel soldiers have no faith whatever in their Government; they told us that their pay was not worth tho snap of their finger, and they would give eight dollars of their Money for one of ours. A pair of 'boots in Richmind atb worth front forty l five to fifty dollare; tsi4A, from fifteen to twenty dollars . a pound of•coffee half rye, five dollar; sugar, throe dellars; a pair of coarse pantaloons, forty dollars; and everything else luvroportion. They have "bread riots" wady every day; robberies and mtmlers are committed almost every night, and , t: - !u can see armed men stationed at the corner of every street, and all over the city to keep the peace."

JEFF TUOMPSON, °ace MOILL—Wa were told the following joke last evening, which was vouched:for as reliable :—When Jeff Thciinpson and his Adjutant, Captain Kay, left the Provoot marshal's office to go tultte boat for transfer to Alton, Thursday, on nearing a restaurant the (lateral asked permission of the guard to go in and get his dinner, which was granted. The guard and the Adjutant were invited to dine.— They all dined, they all wined. They ate large ly of the viands sot before them. ln fact it is thought that the party bad not enjoyed such a repast for many a day. When they had com pleted their dinner and were ready to start, a bill of some forty dollars was presented to Gen. ThompsOn, who, with the mast delightful sang fyoid ; remarked to the waiter : "Jily dear air, 1 am Brig. Gen. If Jeff Thompaon, of the Con federate army ; lam a prisoner in the hands of the federal military ; they halm to feed me please present your bill to the military, and I .have no doubt it will , be paid." And they all skedadled.—Sf. GEN. Lsg's Esran.—A cotempormy states that some writers base erred in speaking of the Arlington estate, near Virashington city, as hav ing once belongtd to Gen.
