Private Charles T. Rankin, Of Co. b, 3lst

ing, from Boston, and was received into the
Soldiers Home on Spring Street, where be
died at seven o'clock Sunday morning. His
death was caused by sun-stroke, which, as
neas as could be learned from him, he receiy-
ed while with the Army OF the Potomac some
time in the month OF June. He was on his
way home to Sebec,swhere we understand he
has a wife and six children. h had fur

lie arrived at the Sanitary Commission Rooms
in Boston on Friday, the 81 inst, and was sent
forward In charge OF messenger of the com.
mission. II was evident from the condition of
the man when he arrived here that he could
ave but a short time. La the few hours that
he lived, he received every attention that kind
ana willing hands could give.
Ills remains were placed IN the city tomb,
and his family informed. Funeral services
were held at the Home yesterday afternoon,
attended by an escort from Camp Berry, and
the officers and members of the Soldiers As

formed by Rev. DR.. Bosworth and Rev. o. 7.

From Washirgtoa.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.
There Is authority for stating that an ar
rangemeDt has been entered into between our
own and the rebel government, whereby the
condition OF our prisoners in rebel hands will
be materially benefited. Col. ould, the rebel
commissioner Of e.ehange, has submitted
proposition TO our government, agreeing TO
release all prisoners OF war In their hands in
close confinement and In cells, and those In
irons, and put them on footing with other
prisoners OF war, provided our government
will do the same toward rebel prisoners SINH
larly held by as. Our government accepted
the proposition, and Col ould has been noti-
fled TO that effect,
Eight or ten rebel sympathizers, who were
arrested in Loudon and Fairfax Counties a
day or two since, were released from the Old
Capitol prison to-day, upon giving their parole
OF honor to do nothing injurious TO the gov
eminent OF the United States, ana not furnish
the enemy with Information relative TO the
movements Of troops. w, A. Rodgers, Vir-
ginia militia officer, who was arrested at the
same time with those who were released, re-
fused to give his parole, on the ground that he
could not conscientiously do so, as he had a
son in the rebel army, and that i ais son re-
turned home on VISIT, sna should he pursued
/ by our cavalry in case OF their hearing Of his
return, he would be bound TO inform him OF
/ their approach. Mr.. Rodgers was recommit.
ted to the Old Capitol prison.
Six Irishmen, refugees from the South, ar.
rived here to-day from City Point, whence
| they were sent inio our i.nes by Gen, Patrick
having come into our lines from Richmond
Several Of these men resided at Petersburg
| but say they were compelled to leave there
and GO TO Richmond, owing to the fact that
! many of the residences In the former place
had been nearly demolished by the destructive
! fire poured in f,ola oar guns. Col. Ingrahan
/ released all these refugees on their taking the
/ oath Of fidelity TO this government.

There will be a grand rally Of the young
men of Portland at Mechanics Hall, this even
ing They will be addressed by WALooTr
HAALIN, Esq, of Dover, n. III. After the adj
dress Union Club will be formed.
Let every Union young man In the city at
tend, and by bis presence testify that he has
the solid good of his country at heart; that
the traitors to our Union, the rebels who fired
upon the old flag at Sumter, are not to be al
loved to dictate terms of peace, such as the
copperheads at the North would willingly al
low them, for the sake Of coming into power
again; that this great rebellion, commenced
by the shareholders for the benefit of their
peculiar institution, and commenced under
the democratic administration of President
Buchanan, shall be put down under the ad-
ministration OF Abraham Lincoln, and by that
administration alone; that this war, commenc-
ed by the rebels, is to be continued until the
rebels themselves submit to the Union.
RALLY YOUNG MEN! RALLY!
An important State election is close at hand.
An election to which the eyes OF all true pat
riots throughout the land are turned, and the
solcilude of whose hearts is that Maine shall
still be true TO the Union cause.

Heavy skirmishlng ehsued, the enemy pushing
forward heavy columns and our forces gradu-
