The Chicago Tim.eB,, a bitter Copperhead
sheet, abuses those patriots who thought more of
their country than, they did of their party, and refut
ed to remain with it in its sympathy for secession.
It asks why the Burnsides, the Butlers, the Logane,
and men like them left the ' , Democratic" organi-,
staihn. The Nokia Tra 'aerie answers that these
Patriots uhandonea - the Democratic organization for
the same ...reason that woodchucks abandon their
,burrows when skunks take possession.
The New York Heratd,t lOng identified
with the Democratic party, and its recognized most
influential supporter, thinimnkindly speaks of it in
a late number: * We were acquainted for forty years
with the organization known as the Democratic par
ty, and we kpowit to bo dead and buried.. Sift a
'vestige of it is Jaffa 'Facie is an organization of eon. :
tract brokers that oscillates between TammanY Hall
and Mozart Dail, and buys and sells votes, that calls
itself the Democratic party, but there is no Demo

THE, LIBBY JAIL( DELIVERY.
We had the pleasure of a visit yesterday
morning from three of our Federal officers
who recently escaped from Libby Prison,
bait% a portion of the party of twenty-eight
who had arrived at Forti:ebs Monroe up to
Tuesday evening.
Their narrative of escape is being prepared,
and Wu shall take great pleasure in laying
it before the public. Suffice it .to say that
they were fifty .one days engaged in making
their excavations, that through which 'they
finally passed being sixty feet long. They
had previously made two other excavations
leading to the city sewers, but found that
the sewers were two small to'admit of their
passage through them, and this mode of escape
had to be-abandoned. The mode of excava
ting was with case knives and an old chisel.
-An old spittoon, ,with two ropes attached
to it, was used to draw the dirt out into the
cellar. Ose rope was kept in the hands of
the operator in the tunnel to draw it back
empty, and one in the hands of the party
attending at the orifice to draw it out full.
• The working - parties succeeded in getting
into the cellar under the hospital, from
• which they operated, first through the "mill,
. theft into the sand. The earth they cone6aled
Under a pile of straw, where a number of old
beds had - been emptied, treading it - down
hard to make it• occupy as little space as
possible.
They commenced to make their escape at
o'clock in the evening, anttsome of those -
Wholiave got through to Fortress Monroe
did not leave until 8 o'clock in the morning.
I .t took each man about five minutes to get
through the' tunnel,, and it was dangerous for
more than one to pt into it at a time, there
Aieing a difficulty in breathing.
They first•struck the outer surface in the
middle of an unpaved street,- but stopped up
the hole by filling the leg of an old pair of
pantaloOns with earth and wedging it up in
'the hole. They then dug on further, and
came out under a:tobacco shed, from which
the made their escape,
Each ma n , as he emerged in the open
sauntered slowly off, taking whatever direc
tion he fancied. They nearly all had on our
blue army coats, which !facilitated. their es
cape,-nearly all the military in and about
Richmond wearing, the same coats, having
been supplied from the ;Clothing sent through.
by the G-overnment for our prisoners. They
allege that they were kOp g ht from our pris
gnu's, but some doubt is entertained on this
subject... - '
They `were pursued oti the Peninsula, mid
some of their tracked (Mt, -and captured by
the aid of blood-hounds. Five days were
occupied in tracking their way to our line',
and some were compelled from exhaustion to
give themselves up.
A. number of officers Who desired to cs..mpe
were compelled to abanden .the. effort on
account of their corpulency, the tunnel being
too small to admit of their passage through
it. Sonic of them undertook a depleting
process to reduce their dimensions, but fail
ed to come down-to th 4 required : thinn6s. -
The work was secretly commenced at first
by a party of eighty; their follow prisoners
knowing nothing of it.•• They finally noti
fied a few of their friends, and the working
parties were increased.; They were fearful
to trust the matter to thegeneral knowledge
of the prisoners, though when the work wak.
done, and the outlet open, all who were wilt"
hve to make the attempt Were notified ot-the,
fact. It was regardedlas a most hazardous.
venture for freedom, With a possibility ofbe
ing shot, a certainty of great hardship and
exposure, and if captured the ball and
and low diet.
After gettirig outside ;of the lines around
Richmond, they were greatly faeilitat , l by
the sympathizing negro. In no ease did
they apply to them for direetion as to their
route, without receiving correct in formaion
gladly given. They were told how to avoid
the Rebel scouts and pickets, and whCre tlicy
would be most likely ; to strike the Federal
lines. .
They were finally met 1:13i the 11th Penn
sylvania Cavalry, twelve miles beyond il
liamsburg,who wereiiscouting through the
country on the lookout for them. They de,-
cribed their receptionly these ga'lant fel
lows as most cordial and enthusiastic. Otti
cers and melt vied with each other - , in pre..s
ing their hospitality , and one private .insist
ed-upOn taking off MS pantaloons to furnish
Capt. Clarke, who had lost one leg of his in
the bushes. They had been five days with
out any regular food, ;and were almost ex
hausted by exposure find hunger. •
Their impression iskhat at least fifty, and
perhaps More, of the 109 who escaped, will
reach our lines. Some:_ few of them were
re-captured iu the city of Richmond.
