PRISON LITE.
BY \ PRISONER.

The Post Ofce.-This was an Gin
stitution" of the prison. And an adj
mirablc one it was, too, 1puta letter
into it in June, directed to Waynes-
burg, and it reached its destination in
February following-after l had re-
turned home. A box was fitted up
by the South gote, into which the let
tcrs, that were not allowed to contain
more than one sheet, were dropped
An incident connected with it has beer
embodied in poetry by G. II. Hollis
ter, of Connecticut. 1t is so sad, ST
lifelike, so full of interest, that i an
constrained to give it to my readers
I have witnessed almost the eXac
counterpart of it.
No blanket round his wasted limbs,
Under the rainy sky he slept;
While pointing his envcnomed shafts,
Around him Death, the archer, crept
He dreamed Of hunger, and held out
His hand to clutch little bread
That white angel with a TORCH
Among the living and the dead,
Seemed bearing, as he went
The vision walked him, and he spicd
The post-boy, followed by crowd
OF famished prisoners, who cried
For lpttara-lattprs from their friends,
Crawling upon his hands and knees
He heard his own name called, ana 10!
A letter from his wife he sees
Gasping for breath he shrieked aloud,
And lost in natures blind eclipse,
Faltering amid the suppliant crowd,
Canght 1t and pressed it to his lips.
a guard who followed, red and wroth,
And fiourishing rusty brand
Reviled him with taunting oath.
And snatched the letter from his hand.
First pay the postage, whining wretch
Despair had made theprisoner brave:
"Then give me back my money,slr
am captive, not a slave
You took my money and my clothes,
Take my life, too--but let me know
How MARY and the children are,
And will bless you ere CO."
The very moonlight through his hands,
AS he stood supplicatlng shone;
And his sharp features shaped themselves
Into prayer and such II tone
Ofangush there was In his cry
For wife and children, that the guard
Thinking upon his own-passed by,
And left him swoahing on the sword.
