A RELIC OF HUMAN SLAVERY. is
now on exhibition at the Stats zeitung Office,
Or Wells street, an iron collar weighing
pound and half which WAS sawed from ne
gro's neck by Wm. Eiche1bach blacksmith
in the Heeker Regiment, and sent to that Of
fee by DR.. Wagner. Upon the collar is rudely
engraved "J. Fennell's slave" The negro
four years and ha1f ago ran away from his
master, was recaptured and eeer sincc has worn
this CALLING collar as Z punishment. Some
weeks since he again escaped and came into
tie lines of the Hecker Regiment. The gal
lant fellows at once expressed their love Of
liberty md hatred Of human slavery BY SAW
ing of the barbarous and torturing collar
from the slaves neck and employing him as
teamster. When J. Fennel, man-owner, re-
covers his property twill probably be through
thousand bayonets, and when he RECEIVERS
his collar he wil probably know it.

ESCAPE OF REBEL PRISONERS. the
excitement and confusion incident upon the
arrival Of the rebel prisoners in this city from
Camp Randall, Madison, 4 number Of
them made their escape. One Of them named
Vim. Mcdonald, Of the Washington Battery
captured at Island No. 10, was arrested in
Wright's Hotel, Friday night. Upon satur-
day morning, another member Of the same
battery named Charles Haight was discovered
in Fosters auction room on Dearborn street.
1t is stated that Mr. Foster and his clerk we're
both cognizant that Haight was runaway
rebel. In my event, the latter was sitting in
the room perfectly at his ease, chstting as
easily as if he were at perfect liberty, and mot
traitor deserving of cell. He is now where
he will not be in future quite so pcripatetic,
