It is deemed - advisable—norto-nrention the. particular route by whiob the deserters es cape to our lines for fear that the rebel au thorities may stop the hole.

On the pas Sage fifty-seven died and two-thirds of the remain der are expected to follow them. What lan guage can express the abhorrence that should be felt for the treatment of these brave men. But they are now reaping their reward, as Sherman's legions are retaliating for the per secution of their brothers in arms, in a man cur that will bring the crimes of the evil do ers home to their hearts for a year to come When our soldiers left Savannah, Sherman was reported as only forty miles off, and die greatest excitement prevailed. strThe Richmond last gives an account of the attempt to escape, recently, ofthirteen thousand Union prison ers. confined at Salisbury, N. Carolina. This account states that they had. formed a plot to , overpower the guard, escape, hop the stockades, and march through Western' N. Carolina into Tennessee. They succeeded in overpowering the interior guard of their encampment: and were engaged in a fight with the outside guard, when artillery was opened on them, which made further resist ance hopeless. About forty of the prisaners were killed and a large number wounded.
