TIE PIRATE SMITH AND COLONEL CoRooRAN.
The Philadelphia Ledger says:
William Smith, who was convicted fpiracy,
at the last term of the United States Circuit
Court, occupies a cell along with his compan.
ion Rockford, on the second corridor in the un.
tried department, and is in all respects treated
as the other prisoners in the same department.
His cell, like the others, is furnished with a
bed and bedstead, table and stools, and is we'll
lighted and ventilated. He is allowed to see
any of his friends, aud can receive any articles
from them but such as the rules of the prison
prohibit, and as to his fare, the Government
provides ample for that, the amounts allo we'd
for the subsistence Of each United States pris-
oner being forty. three cents per day. If Colo
mel Corcoran, who, according to the order of the
Acting Secretary of War of the Confederate
States, is to be confined in a cell appropriated
to convict felons, and to be treated In all re-
speets ss if such convict, and to be held for ex-
ecution in the same manner as Smith, the pi-
rate, now in Moyamensing, under conviction
only receives half as good treatment as Smith
| is now receiving, he will have no cause TO COM
plain. Until snetsnce is passed, prisoners are
never treated as felons here. They remain on
the untried side of the prison until the judg
ment of the court Is pronounced. Smith hs
not been sentenced, nor is 1t probable that hI
will soon be. The trials Of the other prisoner
have been postponed until the next term Of thu
Circuit Court, and II is not likely he will b
| sentenced before that time.

Fes Extract of a letter from a student at
the University, TO his friend in this CITY:

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA. March 22d, 'el
"Mr Hoicombe's speech must have been axan0st
powerful aud eloquent effort in behalf OF the
South, and when it is reported 10 full in the En-
Quirer, please have a few copies OF ii sent to m
''it would really do the heart of any true South :
erner good to live in this atmosphere for there is
oaly QUE opinion, and that immediate secess On
Within sight OF nay room are eleven large flags of
the southern Confederacy,' flying from tbs
roofs of the oarding houses. For weeks | have
not heard voice in favor OF the Union, and such
thing as the American flag is almost unknow
here. No one wonld dare to raise one in this
neighhorhood, for it would almost certainly be
taken down aud snpplauted by the three stripes
and seven stars. This afternoon. tall pole, wit
secession fag, nineteen feet long, was raised
ear the railroad station. The Southern Guard, ,
one Of the student military companies, was pres
ent, and fired seven salutes, one for each State
while the flag raised to the tune of Dixie ;
In addition to the students, several hundred in
number, many persons from Charlottesville were
present. Addresses were delivered a nd had you
been present, you might have imagined yourself
in South CaIolipa. If Virginia remains in the
Union. the University will be very much injured,
for none Of the Southern students who comprise
about one half the whole number, will return.
''By the way, the raising OF the Southern Con-
ternoon, is a very good Joke, aud will be apt TO
excite the ire Of our Union loving friends, for
this company is a regular commissioned one, aud
alta ched TO one of the State Regiments. Virginia
soldiers raising foreign flag, nd earring that
they will fight under II against our National ~
banner, for Virginia is still under the old and
stripes 1t may look like treason TO some mem

which can hardly be put down here"
