one-third of the people in his section OF the State
will escape ifpossble, and, relieved ofthe bayonet,
the vote to return to the Union would carry clear
majority in Culpepper and contiguous counties;
He passed through portion of Lees army, and
says that such is the dissatisfaction among North

Reported ESCAPE OF One HUNDRED AND NINE
OFFICERS FROM THE PRISONERS IN RICHMOND
LATEST FROM WASHINGTON. ..
WASHINGTON, Feb. IA, 1864.
A gentleman who tonight arrived from the
Army of the Potomac, saw before he left there
Richmond paper of Thursday, found on the person
of deserter who came into our lines, in which ap-
pears an article stating that one hundred and nine
officers have escaped from the Libby prison by
digging tunnel under the street for that purpose.
It is supposed the prisoners have been engaged
upon the work for at least month They were
missed at roll can, and forthwith troops were de-
spatched in various directions to capture them.
Four were overtaken on the Williamsburg and
Hanover Court House road. The others, it is sus-
pected. were secreted in the neighborhood Of Rich
mond.
The guards were arrested ON the belief that they
were in collusion with the prisoners, but were
afterward released, the subterranean mode OF
escape having become known.
The paper saws that Neal Dow was not among
the rI1iaways, but was probably waiting to accom-
pany the next BATCH
The deserter above referred to says large num-
her of his regiment, the Fourteenth Louisiana, are
barefoot. and that the daily ration consists of a
onarter of pound of meat and one pint of meal.
Among the officers recently escaped from Libby
prison are Colonel Streight, Colonel Tipfen Major
John Henry and Colonel Rodgers but it is not
known yet whether they have succeeded In getting
clear of the re el lominions.
The rations issued to the officers in the prison
consisted of a quart Of rice to sixteen men every
eight days, small piece of corn bread every day
TO each about four ounces of very poor fresh meat
once week. and salt and vinegar very rarely.
Acting Assistant Surgeon Koock, who feigned
TO be i'll with the smallpox, has deserted from the
Emitted States steamer BrGndg,eine.
CAPTAIN John F. Porter, of the Fourteenth New
York cavalry, arrived here to-day overland from
Richmond having escaped two weeks ago from
Libby prison. He left the prison in q rebel uni
form. having secured an abandoned one, and re-
NAMED nine days in Richmond without exciting
suspicion.
