The Richmond Examiner of the Sd says
that sixt mine prisoners had escaped from
Danville on the Saturday previous BY tun-
neling- It says: 80
We learn from Dauville that the Yam
kee prisoners confined in Sutherland's
warehouse completed . tunnel on Satur-
day night. and that 50 of thsm succeeded
in escaping. The tunnel was after the
style 50 much in vogue IN Richmond, and
led across q rear lot about forty feet. COM
ing up inside the yard and underneath the
kitchen Of Mr.. w. Pate's residences. The
escaped Yankees. it Is supposed. took
possession Of two bosts lying in the Dan
siver. and padded off in the direction of
Roanoke. No tidings Of chem had been
received by the prison authorities up to
IL M. Sunday. when an expedition was or
gained and started in pursuit Of them.
The prison regiment at Danvilfe must ex-
list ia . very loose condition. Between
five and six hundred Of the FIVE or six
thousand prisoners sent from Richmond to
that place have been suffered to escape.
If prisoners of war are permitted to escape
at this rate. there will be few to exchange
when The unfortunate hitch in the cartel is
adjusted. A

Death of Slavery.

Thers are many persons lot belonging
40 the-abolition party who nevertheless
believe that the folly of the South and the
events. of the war have killed the institu-
ton Of slavery. The New York Express
remarks. most truly. that it was killed of
IN the District of Colombia, at an expense
of 9 million Of dollars to the Federal
Treasury. by vote in Congress. 1t was
killed of in Western Virginia by the votes
of the people. 1t is being killed off in
Missouri and Maryland by assemblies,
Conventions, and Legislatures. In the
old Dominion. it is gone between the Po-
tomsc and Richmond in one direction, and
nearlyu to Richmond on the Peninsula,
1t is struck out of existence on the whole
coast front along North and South Caro-
lina,- Georgia, Florida, and Texas, on the
Mississippi, in parts of Alabama. Arksn-
sas. as we'll as in portion Of Louisiana.
No property is now held by so frail ten
are Is property in slaves. and nothing that
has been stable and profitable is more I'M
certainin the great future. We recognize
these fscts as facts, and would have the
country act accordingly. We wish all
the people of the slaveholding States could
see them in the same light, for with them
is the Constitutional power to control their
own. destiny while dealing with slavery.
The longer The war lasts the weaker will
slavery be- Administration men gener.
ally saw and owned this truth, till others
owned it also, and then with that perver-
sity which 81 often controls men whose
prinsiples consists rsther in acts Of op-
position than in measures of accordance.
they doubted what they had hitherto
af6rqed. Bysnd by North and South
will SEE and Get upon the great truth that
Statesean not be practically blotted out
of existence' and the Union live. Slavery
ID ono Thing and anti-slavsry IL another
things-and the old Union is worth more
than either. The time has passed. in our
judgenent, for defending or opposing
slaveryfor reasons identified with the I'm.
ion. The South did more to kill the in.
stitutioh in one DAY, in the United States,
on the 18th Of April, 1861. than all tn;
Abolitionists of the world combined. 1.
