dus van Houohe, u Swede; James Rogers, IN
Engllshrnapi And Andrew Peterson, u Belgian.
They are all seamen, and arrived In New Or.
leans before the blockade, in American YES.
sells. They were pressed into the rebel service,
and wero privates In the notorious Polish regi.
ment. While on their way to Virginia, they
designedly left the train, and travelled two days
on foot TO Bristol, Tennessee, and on represent.
Ing that they had bBen accidentally left behind,
they were forwarded to Itichriiond on the ex.
their regiment. Without aBy difficulty they
made their way out Of Richmond, and they fol.
lowed the railroad track 10 Fredericksburg.
Thence they walked to near Aqua Greek, and
dstectipg 10 the Potomac, they .tolS boat and
roHed up to sia miles below Fort Washington,
where they hailed u schooner going to Alex.
andris, and we're taken on board. They pro-
ceeded to General Franklin's headquarters,
aud we're thea sent to the city. They state that
there are from eight TO ten regiments at Rich
mond, bat only one at Fredericksburg, though
there 10 Q large camp Vt u distance back VI the
city. They state that the fare Of the rebel sol.
diers 10 vpry hard, that no pay is given them,
and that great dissatisfaction exists. The men
were dressed In their seamen's clothes, they
never having had any Othor uniform. They are
unable 10 state any thing as to any fortincations
at Richmond and Fredericksburg, further than
that they saw none.

Another Runaway.

About one O'Clock yesterday, the horses at.
tached to Government wagon, took fright on
X street near Tenth, and started ut y furious
pace eastward. The driver managed to keep
on his saddle until the team reached Ninth
street, when he jumped of. but he struck VIC:
len,ly against the ground, and was badly bruised
and cut about the head. He was taken up and
by, where his wounds were dressed. The
horses kept on until they reached Fourth
street, where they were brought up standing

Another Dodge.

On Wednesday morning, three young men, or,
az Artemus Ward would say, 'gay and fes.
tive cusses," engaged hackman to drive them
around town to see the sights. After riding for
several hours, drinking ut every tavern, they
finally brought up at restaurant on street,
under the pretence of getting something 10
drink. The driver, thinking they stayed rather
Il long time, went to look for them, but 10, and
behold, they we're gone; thus giving him the
dodge In order that they might not pay him.
