Lieut.. Frank Parker, . Phiiadsiphian, who
was taken prisoner At Bsll's Blu6, and has 70.

Of barbsrity on the part Of the enemy:
The prisoners arrived at SalIabury on the
18Th Of March, and took up their quarters 10 q
cotton mill, to which WAS attached six brick
SSSs ssrn snd

one thousand prtsonsra, Northern Union col.
disrs and Southern Union citizens, from Ken.
taCky, MARYLAND, virginia, Tennessee, and
nine hundred souls. being 40 average Of ono
man to every three feet Of space, eight Of
whom only we're allowed 70 bs out at one time
Tor all purposes. The commxndant OF tho post
offered to allow the ofncers to parade the
grounds attached t. the buildinEs, under .
double guard, the officers giving their parole
not TO attempt to escape, or aid other Union
prisoners in escaping, which offer was rejected
BY Lieut.. Parker and i've others.
Lieut.. P. and the Ave who rejected the iibe.
raj offer, were then placed In close room, ten
feet BY twenty, whsrethey were subjected to
many ,ndignities, especially at the hands Of
Lieut.. Bradford, son Of Gov. Bradford. Of Mary.
land, who has disavowed his disloyal son. This
treatment they endured until The oommandant
Of the post was changed, A. 9. Goodwin. for
merly California gambler and blackleg, TAX
ing charge, who brought from Richmond over
| two hundred Union prisoners, who were oon.
fined In this "blaok hols." Instead Of thsis
srffsrings being amslioratsd BY the change,
tho tyranny was more insuhsrsbls than ever.
This monster Goodwin out down the before
| soant rati0ns 10 six ounces OF musty, maRgoty
pork, and fourteen ounces Of sour flour, which
produced the death, from actual starvation, Of
some Of the prisoners, After which, the officers
| we're compelled not only TO feed themselves,
but to furnish rxtions TO the prisoners at their
own expense. Goodwin would not allow the Of.
ncers to send outside for food, but started \
suffers store In the prison enclosure, and
charged them four hundred per oent. more
than they could have purchased ths same ar.
ticks 0uiside.

commissioners were sent by Cur Government
To the Crimes, to learn the art Of European

Mcclellan was the youngest officer Of the com.
mission. and was selected to write the report,
which wss submitted to Congress- 1t contains
vast deal Of valuable Information, presented
10 an interesting manner. We fear, however
that Gen. Mcclellan was not benefited by
what he saw. He says that 1.-The siege ol
SsvlstopGl called forth the most msguidcen,
defence Of fortincations that has ever yet GO
Cured" It may be that hls admiration for th,
digging and trenching style Of warfare, as prac
ticsd before sevastopol, was 30 great, and msd'
such an impression upon him, that be imaginet
there was more power In the picksxe and spsd'
than in powder and ball, snd therefore intro
duoed them into bis campaign. That mode o

we're overjoyed to Aud Col. ~, on General

rebels and slept In the woods for the night
Saturday and Sunday, heavy firing was heard
nearly all day on and near the Rsppahaunock
river, about eight miles below the Junction.
The fighting, II was ascertained. was an artil-
ery duel across the river. But fsv Of our men
we're killed or wounded. The effect on The

enemy lost more than our own men, a. they
were more exposed.
The reported capture Of large number Of

who heard II ct Warrenton on Sunday.
Dr. Sawyer expresses the fullest confidence 10

that the CRY Of "On 10 Richmond I" will again
