Special DespOcch 10 the Evening Telegraph.
WASHINGTON Aug. 2O.-The ex-Rebel Com
missioner for the exchange of prisoners, Robert
Ould is out in two column article in one of
the morning papers here, trying TO show that
General Grant was responsible for the nom
exchange of prisoners in 1864, and that conse-
quently all the suffering of the Federal prisoners
at Andersonville and other Southern prisons is
10 be attributed to Grant.
The article is evidently intended as an elec-
tioneering document for the benefit of the De-
mOcratic candidates. Guilds letter consists of
mere assertions on his own responsibility, uu-
supported by any official data going to connect
General Grant in any way with the nom
exchange Of prisoners.
He tries to make it appear that the Rebels
were an nxious TO make the captivity of the Union
soldiers as pleasant as possible, and then re-
iterates as reason for their failure to do 80,
the old story that they had not means. In 1864
he says he offered to purchase medicines off the
Federal Government for the Federal prisoners,
but received no reply to his suggestion. Army
officers here say the reason of it was that 0uld
could not be trusted to distribute the
supplies sent to Federal prisoners. Those
cent by the SAINT ery and Christian Commissions,
having been unhesitaingly confscated by the
Rebel authorities on several occasions. Ould is
very anxious for the election of Seymour and
Blair, and it is understood this letter was writ
ten and published for the purpose of turning
soldiers who were formerly in Rebel PRISONS

The Artesian Well at Hartford, Conn.

The Hartford Times says:-The artesian well
on tue Colt esta' e has now reached depth OF
between 1900 and l400 feet. Work has been
suspended on il during the extreme hot weather,
but will now be resumed with the aid of new
steam engine of greater power than the one
hitherto used. The lost drill was easily re-
covered. On going throueh a stratum of the
'Old red sandstone" of HuRh Miller-a rock
millions of years old drill very unexpect-
edIy came In contact with unmistskable lime
stone. According 10 geological theories, this
was ot looked Tor in the bed OF the "Old Red"
but it was no doubt the effect of those enormous
upheavals which, forcing the molten mass from
below into and through the partially formed
rocks which then formed the earth's crust, pro-
ductd those vast contortlons and strange petri-
tactive mixtures known in geology as "meta-
phuric" rocks The lowest rock yet struck in
boring this we'll is very dark slate.
