The Captive Ladies OF washington.


A correspondent of the Baltimore Ecchang be-
trays indignation which every chivalrOus nature
must feel in writing of the treatment of ladies by
the brutal set in Washington. He says:
On Saturday at IL A. NJ, Mrs. entertain
ing her visitor, lady friend, was surprised to
two men enter and announce to her that she was
under arrest, az well as her family. Immediately
armed men stationed themselves in her parlOrs. at
all the doors, and round the house while four men
proceeded up stairs throwing open the sacred doors
Of her apartments, forcing open desks, wardrObes
drawers, boxes, tearing the bedding from the BEDS
searching the pockets of dresses with activity
which threatened destruction to everything. Re-
monstrance was in vain, for they were told to
"hush," else they should have guards placed over
each of them Their hands were violently seized
because q pocket book was detained, and the un
fortunate female pushed into a room with a soldier
over her. Their SOled clothes insulted bring
ing the tears into their women's eyes. Every
insult in act and speech was shown to them, and
when their desks and pockets had been robbed of
their contents, they were all huddled into one room
with armed men to guard them.
The regulars of the United States army have been
gentemanly in their department. have long wished
for some term to define mass of vulgarity, rum
anly conduct, insults to unprotected women, and
have found it in Aeto York detective policeman.
The prisoners have four over them they have
turned them out OF their parlors sleep and smoke
on their sofas the bell when their friends
call, and their cards and notes gre all examined.
They illuminate the house, seated at the front win
dow with their legs ever the chairs thrust them
selves wherever the ladies meet together 1.-THE family
being large) to hear their remarks have examined
and threatened the servants if they do not tell The
prisoners cannot get pitcher of water without a
guard being sent with their servants their mail is
taken possession Of and their privacy intruded upon
In every way. Now as there is a God IN Heaven
have stated exactly what this 18th century has
allowed. Isolated from all their friends, thus are
they left to the vengeance of this Government.
The charge of reasonable correspondence cannot
be sustained. No letter has been written TO any
Confederate leader; nor proof be found TO
tain TINS arrest. They are entirely ignorant into
whose hands they have fallen, and are as much
guarded as if they were the veriest cOnvicts on re-
cord.
They cannot consistently ask any favors of this
Government, neither do they wish to. Their bones
would rather rot in prison-forgive this strong ex
pressiOn-but my blood bOis with indignant
strength No one knows Of my having written this
letter, do so my own responsibility.
how long these prosecutions are to be continued
we cannot imagine; but the public shall know what
Lincoln has inaugursted.
