whatever services she might be permitted 10 render

palpated saw her asking admission in vain at the
door of the JAIL while crowd of armed men over the
way surveyed her movements with the closest care.
Presently a report was spread that this was Mrs l..

NEW PRISONER
Hazlett of Pennsylvania was yesterday captured in
Carlisle Pa, and was at midnight brought into
Charlestown. Youwould have thought, by the uproar
that a new invasion was at hand-guards running
hitber and thher, hotels assailed with mereiless bat
terings, and altogether a hideous state Of things
Hazlet has nothing say, having been instructed by
counsel TO answer no questions, and give no ntima-
ton of his antecedents and the other prisoners seem
oppressed by absolute neapabity TO recognize him.

appearance the most reckless and determined Of all
that have been brought here. As matters stand, his
chances TO escape are not neonsiderable.

and everything s pretty much the same here as you
find it at the North :"
heard this question asked yesterday by one Of the
inhabitants of Charlestown Of a Northern visitor,
whose amiability conquering for a moment his integ
rity, induced him to with pleasant aftrma-
tive. The delight of the interrogation was the best
proof of his genuine consciousness Of infeorty for
