Arrival Of paroIed Prisoners.

WASHINGTON, March 0.-Within a few
days past ten hundred paroled and
escaped prisoners have arrivedat Washing
ton Navy Yard. These came from the
prison at Florence, and belonged to various
vessels, having been captured at different
times. The escaped men state when Sher-
man marched toward Florence they were
hastily placed on cars and sent towards
Wilmington; but when that place was
threatened they were taken back to Colds
borO, where they remained short time and
were sent back to Wilmington. A flag of
truce was sent to Gen. Terry, asking il they
could be exchanged through him, to which
he replid that it could not be done for several
days. While they were in Wilmington quite
a number escaped and were hid by citizens
and these men say that several hundred
must have got away in this manner by aid
of Union citizens. One of these escaped
prisoners, Geo. Anderson, Of the monitor
Passaic, who was captured in Warsaw river
on the 18th of December, escaped while be-
ing taken with other prisoners from Will
mington to Richmond. He and fifteen others
jumped off the train when it was about
thirteen miles from Wilmington. Two of
them were shot bv the guard from the tops
of the cars and killed, but all the others
made their escape and were in the city
when our forces entered.
There were about 5000 prisoners brought
away from the Florence stockade, 1000 sick
being left behind. This place had been in
command of Col. Iverson, of the 20th South
Carolina regiment and it was said that he
was prisoner in Richmond for some cause
when these men left.

Sensation KumOrs in Richmond
The Feeling In North Carolina
Exchange Of Prisoners.

NEW YORK; March 9.-On Sunday Rich
mond was excited with a rumor that John
ston had defeated Sherman and was invest
ing the position taken up by the latter.
The next day, however, Richmond papers
admitted the falsty of the report, but claim
ed that Hampton had defeated Fitzpatrick
at Cheraw. This report, however, was
brought by railroad passenger, who was
the only one that knew anything of it.
The state of feeling in North Carolina is
plainly evident from tile tone of the press
and recent events. Nearly whole COM
pany of the 9th North Carolina cavalry
deserted few days since and came into
Newbern, bringing their horses and equip
ments. Negroes are coming in in large
numbers. The rebels are conscripting all
the boys they can lay hands on. Both the
troops and people Of that State are repre-
sented heartily sick of the war.
Union prisoners confined at Florence were
sent to Salisbury on the approach of Sher-
man. On the way many escaped and ANch-
ed our lines at Newbern under guidance of
negroes and loyal whites. Arrangements
have been made to exchange 10000 prison.
ers at Wilmington, and they are now being
forwarded.

CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON, March 0.


Mr. Trumbull, from the committee on the
judiciary, made report Oh the credentials
OF Mr.. Snow, Senator elect from Arkansas.
The committee say that in 1861 the consti-
tuted authorities of Arkansas, so far as they
could succeed, took the State beyond the
authority of the United States, and that in
pursuance of law of Congress the Presi-
dent, by proclamation, declared the inhabi-
tants of that State to be included i'm the in
surrection. Therefore the committee re-
commend that the question of admission be
postponed until next session.
The report was adopted.
Mr.. DoOlittle presented the credentials of
John G. Underwood, as Senator elect from
the State of Virginia for six years from the
4th of March, 1865.
Mr.. Trumbull said the committee on Ju-
dietary had just made report in the case
OF Arkansas, which was in similar condi-
ton to Virginia, and it was therefore likely
the committee would come to similar con-
clusion.
Mr. Henderson did not indorsc the Sena-
tors views. He did not believe that the
PRESIDENTS proclamation precluded the Sen
ate from taking action on the subject of adj
mitting Senators. We should encourage the
re-establishmento of local State Governments
as means of putting down the rebellion
and guerrilla incursions.
The subject was temporarily laid aside
giving way to special orders for the day,
namely: the election of a chaplain Tor the
present Congress.
Mr.. Lane, of Indiana, nominated Rev. DR..
Bowman (MethOdist), the present incum-
bent.
Mr.. Harris nominated the Rev. DIR. Gary.
Baptist clergyman, of Washington. 30
..sNn n I =
q. votes, he was declared duly elected Chap

sAn Ounce eOfFreventiOn is worth
n Pound of Cure."-This old and ever
true maxim is fully exemplified in the use
of "PINKERToN's WAHoo AND CALIsAYA
BITTERs." Hundreds and thousands have
been saved from fevers by the daily use of
these Bitters. We said 'daily," because they
should be used as beverage. They are
vegetable tonic and will injure no one, but
on the contrary do all good who use them.
They help circulation, restore lost appetite,
and greatly promote the action of the diges-
tive organs, and never fail to counteract the
bad effects produced by the change of cli-
mate or water. Travellers should not do
without them. They are pleasant to the
palate, and will invigorate and strengthen
the whole system. Try one bottle-it will
put new life in you, and make you feel that
thereis cure for your case. We know they
are the best Bitters ever offered to the world.
