During Saturday night several disturbances
occurred in other portions of the city. On

stated, was'imprisoned in q store on King

HOW Pryor was IeeIeased.

The National Intelligencer gives the fol-
lowing version of the release of Roger A.
Pryor: dispatches of Saturday to the
evening papers of the Northern cities state
that the President had ordered the release
of General Roger A. Pryor from Fort La
fayette, with directions for him to report to
Col. Forney, in this city. We have reason
to believe that the above report is true
Distinguished gentlemen of the editorial
fraternity, both Republican and Democratic,
urged his liberation, and Mr.. Lincoln in a
moment of good nature, wrote the order for
his release, adding loosely that General
Pryor should report to Col. Forney. twill
be remembered that Col. Forney and Gen.
Pryor were former associate editors of The
Union newspaper, under the proprietorship
of Gen. Armstrong, and with them was Hon.
Charles Eames, now Solicitor OF the Navy
Department, and William NJ. 0verton, ESQ.,
since deceased. This strong editorial staff
succeeded A.. j. Donelson, Esq, who, for a
while, was leading editor of The Union, hav-
ing succeeded theveteran Thomas Ritchie."

Interference I'm Elections.

tFrom The Chicago Times.l
The House in Washington has passed a
bill land it has been approved by the Presi-
dent] to prevent military interference in
elections, from which fact it would appear
that there has been such interference of a
character so extended and unjustifiable as
to demand legislation to prevent its repeti-
ton. This is the confession made by the
passage of the bill, and more shameful con-
fession could hardly be made by Republi-
can Government protesting to respect law,
justice and the purity of elections. Had
not the interference been general one,
affecting the nation at large, reaching be-
yond particular States and localities, lille
gal and oppressive, it is improbable that
the party responsible for it would crimnate
itself by such an acknowledgment as the
passage of the bill involves. The facts were
too notorious and too well substantiated to
be evaded.
Several weeks since The Neu York Tri-
bune, in commenting upon the late elections,
presented an array Of figures tending to
prove the increase of its party with the in
crease of population, and that the Demo-
cratic party, instead of gaining in num-
bers, as the population increased, was de-
creasing. The passage of this bill will 60
far towards explaining the sudden growth
of Abolitionisn, and overthrowing the in
ferences drawn from its figures. The last
election was carried by fraud. Military in
terference in Pennsylvania and Indiana car
ried the State elections, and the influence
which the Administration triumph exerted
in the October elections secured, in con-
junction with fraud and military interfer-
ence, its success in November.

A Brutal Occurrence at ZanesviIle.

tFrom The GAINESVILLE Signal, Feb. 231
An occurrence took place in one of the
hotels of this city on Saturday last of the
most shameful character, and which, to say
the least, Is most brutal and fiendish. We
forbear mentioning the names of the parties.
A man, or rather brute, styling himself
E b, who has been boarding at the
hotel in question for some time, and paying
his addresses to respectable young lady
employed in the dining room, whose par
ents reside on Marietta street in this city,
on Saturday evening last induced her to 60
to his room under some pretense or other,
not known, and OH Sunday morning, not
making her appearance at the MOTEL, no
suspicion was excited, from the fact that she
was in the habit of going home Oh Saturday
evening and returning sometime during the
forenoon of Sunday. Not making her ap-
pearance on Sunday forenoon, the proprie-
tor of the hotel made inquiries at her home,
and learned chat she had not been there
during Saturday night. Suspicioning that
something was wrong he Immediately had
B--s room broken open, and found the
young lady in bed, In an insensible coDdi-
ton, circumstances going to show that she
had been drugged by some one to accom-
plish his hellish purpose. She was removed
to her home in an insensible condition.
B., the perpetrator of this fiendish deed,
has made his escape. Wehope the authori-
ties may succeed in arresting and bringing
him to Justice, as such crime as this should
not 90 UNPUBLISHED, as it is not safe that q
man who would be guilty Of such a hellish
deed should be permitted to run at large

Especial Dispatch to The Cincinnati Gazette.l
WILMINGTON. N. c., Feb. 22-6P. MI
VIA WASHINGTON, Feb. N.
The enemy has crossed the northeast
branch, burning the railroad bridge. Gen.
Terry confronts him at the river. Gen. Cox
is temporarily in command in the city. Gen.
Schofeld, accompanied by his chief en-
gineer, Captain Twining has already sur
veyed an inner line for Qualifications, which
will enable comparatively small force to
hold the city. These new works will be
commensurate in strength with the great
Importance of this newly acquired post. 1t
is expected that communication will be
opened with Gen. Sherman's forces by
means of scouts before the week is out.
From the contents of late exchanges
found in The Journal office, and from infor-
nation in the possession of citizens, 1t seems
certain that the plan Of the rebels for the
spring campaign is to mass all their avail
able force in two armies, one at point
where Sherman and SchofielG will both be
confronted and temporarily checked; the
other under Lee to check Grant. Lee will
then attempt by rapid union of these
forces to crush one of our armies and then
turn upon the other. Beauregard aud Har-
dee have not yet passed north of this point.
They are still prowling lions in Sherman's
path, but they roar gently.
1t is believed in military circles that the
triangle at whose vertices stand Goldsboro,
Danville and Richmond, will soon be the
scene of the bloodiest battle of the war.
The following rebel losses in the late
operations have been ascertained: five kill
ed, fifty-fve wounded, and trifle over five
hundred prisoners. Our constant flank
movements accounts for the little fighting.

NulliGcation in Michigan.

The Republican Supreme Court OF Mich
igan has decided that the soldiers vote law
of that State is unconstitutional Under
that law nine Republican members of the
Legislature were chosen, being beaten at
the election by the home vote, but counted
in by the soldiers vote. After the decision,
to the surprise of everybody the Republi-
can majority in the Legislature completely
nullifed the law as expounded by the Court
and retained in their seats, against the pro-
tests of the contesting members, the nine
sitting members above alluded to. This is
another evidence of the wild and lawless
spirit, tending to anarchy, that character
izes the party in power.-Cinctnndtt En-

Portrniture of stanton.

Mr.. Brown, of the Confederate Senate, in
the course of recent speech, had the fol-
lowing notice of Secretary Stanton, OF whom
he said: .....
1t seemed that he had no power to dis
gust Lincoln. 1t might be because he was
baser than the other two. He rather
thought it was, for of all unmitigated falsi-
fiers of sacred pledges and undisguised be-
trayers of the confidence which he himself
had created, Edwin NJ. Stanton was the
meanest and basest. He had one consola-
ton in thinking of this man, Stanton, and
that was that he would be certain, sooner
or later, to betray Lincoln. Stanton was
incapable of keeping faith. He had a fond
ness for betraying those who give him their
confidence; that has become the charm OF
his life. Mr.. Brown related an interview
which he had with the present 1ankee Sec
retary of War just before he (Mr. Brown
left Washington the last time. 1t was un-
der circumstances peculiarly calculated to
impress Mr.. Brown. His State had with
drawn from the Union. Mr.. Brown was
passing out of the Senate, and Mr.. Stanton
from the Supreme Court. They met by ac-
cident in front of the Old Capitol, when the
conversation at once turned on secession,
the action of Mississippi on the question,
and Mr.. Browns consequent withdrawal
from the Senate. Mr.. Brown was surprised,
and, under the circumstances, delighted TO
herr Mr.. Stanton say the South tcas right, and
erpress an earnest hope that she ,oould stand
firm. You are right, said he; 60 home and
urge YOUR friends to stand by what they
have done, and all will be WELL Firmness
now will secure you all you ask ;any waver-
ing and you are lost. He had accepted his
advice, and the next he heard of him, he
was Lincoln's Secretary of War, or he had
better say, Lincoln's butcher. Stanton, by
his brutality in refusing all exchanges, had
caused the death of at least fifty thousand
men, more than half Of them his own coun-
truman
