About ten o'clock yesterday Sunday
,,o-niBg. the second floor Of D. B. Sections
varsbouse, on Merwin street, on which was
stared porlt and beef in barrels, gave way
carving tho lower aOOrs and their contents
,broupb to the cellar. There were about
thousand barrels Of pork and beef on the
two upper floors. Dressed hogs filed the
cellar. The foreman of the establishment
and two or three men we're in the building,
but they escaped injury. One man was struck
On the shoulder by falling brick. The
crash occurred in the rear portion Of the
store; in front, the floors held firm. The
valls of the warehouse, which are of brick
remain unimpaired. Workmen srs engaged
this morning in removing the merchandise
and rubbish, and securing the remaining
floors. The loss is not very heavy. 1t wa
very fortunate that the accident did not 90
cur on week day, as loss Of life nigh
have eusued. The warehouse was formerly
occupied BY PeltOn & Breed, Agents for tn
Northern Transportation Company. Tn
warehouse will be repaired at once, and Sc
cured against any similar accident.

The following ietterIays the Philadelphia
Bulatin has been received at the Office of
the us. Christian Commission in this city.
ltpresen,s sad picture of the condition of
our men as they arrive at Camp Parole, from
the prisons of Richmond:
ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 20, ls63-Res. ". =
4PPAvtaadftah ana been removed from the boat at
this point. Many like those received on the
18th Of October, give evidence Of the cruel
treatment received at the hands of the rebel
authorities, Six died ON board the boat as
she came from Fortress Monroe, and two
more as soon as they were removed to their
wards. 1t makes the heart bleed to think OF
SO many OF our men still being in the Libby Mt
Belle Island.
Two young men, taken at Chicks,mauoa
and among the number that came .o-dav. feIj
me that an officer at the hospital. in Richmond
told them that an average O. forty-three Of
men who are there die every day. How such
a fact should stir up the r,eopIe of the loyaI
STATS ihese men ough', certainly to be re-
leased.
Inc captain relate d to me an incident 10
SNOW that even the returning rebel prisoners
Mhen tney see op.r men as they are received
at city foint, arr moved with pity on behold
ing their suffer ing condition. The load that
vert up on board the boat that brought these
Zen down ere comfortably clothed, all show
ing by theyr looks how well they had been
treated. As they landed and saw the Union
prlsonerfs many of them expressed their sur
prise AID horror at the sight. One man stood
for some time looking at them; at last turning
away, the captain saw him wiping tear from
his eyes as he remarked to comrade by his
side, II can't stand to look at those men,
One OF those who died on board shows con-
cusiyely the marks of real starvation. / can
not get the appearance Of that corps out of
mind.
Only three out Of the six who died, were
able TO tell their names. These were G. b.
Wingate LIST Massachusetts Cavalry: l. Lesb,
Co, ID, 18th Pennsylvania Cavalry, and Geo.
Mulholland, Goth Pennsylvania Volunteers.
Send ms whatever stores you can from the
Christian Commission. Many boxes have
been received which have done great good.
DIR. VANDERBILT, of this hospital, and DIR. Par
ker, OF st. Johns College, give their personal
attention TO all these men on their arrival. and
