sue stringent orders prohibiting all visitors
to the Members ofthe Clergy this day sent
as prisoners TO the Penitentiary, excspt
such as ahave special permission from me
for that purpose; aud would add, this
privilege should be granted only for good
and sufficient reasons would suggest
that no encouragement should be given to
that secession spirit and feeling which are
manifestUd in tho numerous offerings of
friends. a..al 8ilSa E5.a.,
These men were not sentto the Peniten-

Among the clergymen of this place who
were required to appear before the Gov
ernor on yesterday, was Rev. W. II. Wharf
ton, Chaplain of tue Peliteutiary.g Father
Wharton seems to be over 90 years of age.
Hard study, intense solicitnde for the
spiritual welfare of sinners, with much
prayer and modification of the flesh,
while they usually reduce the flesh of
the devotee, and impart pale and ca
dAverous due to his counteuance, have
NOT produced these effects on the good
chaplain. He is quite portly and sedate
looking gentlemen. BE is the author of
certain Psnitentiary Report, whic b will
give him name eo-extensive with the
country; said report.adTising King Harris
TO release certain feIonslfrom the peuiten-
tiary, to join the rebel army. We exhumed
"a portion of the report on yesterday, and
have thus given it wider nOtoriety than
the pious author ever dreAmed of Genius
never appreciates its own performances,
and we don5t whether Father Wharton ac-
tuAlly realized the fact that he was linking
