Another Thrilling Narrative

FuHApELPHIA, Dec. III, 1oGl.
Commander Battery d, 9Th U. s. Artillery:
DEAn s1h:-I write to inform you, and re-
quest that you will impart the information to
others in the battery, that my son John Q. B.
Richards arrived home On the 10Th inst.,-a
living skeleton completely broken down by
scntyy, dysentery, want of proper medicines,
and being starved In the rebel prison. he
last, at which time be lost all the letters with
which others had entrusted him; also the
rebels took all the money lie had, all his
clothing, blankets, &C., the shoes from his
feet, and the hat from his head. He mover
had a shoe on his foot, until he was turned
bor on the 9th inst, when sbod, The rebels
tore up his discharge before his eyes, and took
and destroyed every paper he had about him.
He was confined In stockade at Anaersonville,
and removed thence to Florence and Charles
ton. He is in bed, raving and delirious, but
strong again-although we know he can never
be the came rs he was. The rebel brutes have
destroyed him, and hope you will give this
information to the company, that they may
know he was captured. and thus rendered
powerless to deliver to the proper persons the
letters, &C., with which they had entrusted
him.
It appears to be settled policy Of rebel
dom to destroy as far as possible oil the Union
men .who FILL into their hands. And they
certainly succeed In mixing men harmless by
their inhuman treatment. John says in his
moments Of sanity it would be utterly i'm
possible for any tongue or pen to describe the
horrors Of Ande1sonrille. They must be seen
to be appreciated. The guard allow little
boys to Shoot in among crowd Of prisoners,
and Kill who they may, the guard doing the
same, and when the prisoners are confined in
. building, standing on first floor and shoot
ing upward, killing or wounding whoever
mar he in the Dath of their hu]lets Finn

cold bloud. lily son was kept two months
without meat, on a pint Of course meal each
day. SAMUEL N. RICHARDS,

side, occupied by T. ". Thomas and Andrew
Buchanan, was also destroyed. Major Bsis-
tow very narrowly escaped. Mr., Proctor, Of
Moods Tleater, is safe with his baggage.
Mrs. Vance, of Harrodsburg, Ky, and family,
escaped safely with trunk full Of valuable
papers. Captain $. T. Cushing, Trackmaster,
and wife Mr. A. J. Polk and family, and MI
Rig are safe. Insurance on furniture in Dan
forth's agencies, ninety Thousand dollars.
The best information 1t this hour indicates
no loss oflite, though this Is doubtful. It is
uncertain whether The dreoriginated from m
incendiary or not. The fire is not entirely
checked. The United States Subsistence De-
pot, Immediately In the rear Of the Calf
House, was not injured. AlcKill & Mullin,
clothiers, lose heavily. Theagggtegate loss by
the conhogration is nearly million Of dollars.

The decline in gold to-day rendered the money
market very quiet, but Notwithstanding this thero
seemed to be IS stringent feeling ns ever. Tho
discount houses, 90 far - accommodating specula-
tors Is concerned nnghtas we'll have no existence,
and they afford but very limited amount Of relief
to those engaged in legitimate transactions. Tho
rate OF discount Is still nomfnaly 10 per cent per
nnnnm; but to judge from the prices paid for pro-
ducts for forward delivery, as compared With the
ruling quotations for present delivery, the rate Of
interest is much higher. During tho past ten days
the sales OF Pork for Immediate delivery have
been amazingly light, while there have been sold
during the came period for delivery In February
and the early part OF March something like To- 600
barrels. Unless, therefore, thero is a very great
improvement in the money market, operators will
ind it difficult matter to mike - both ends meet"
when theee contracts mature.
The supply Of Eastern Exchancc is still Ncht,
