The First Confederate Prisoners.
It is a singular fact that the first prisoners
captured in the Confederate war were STIR
prised and taken by two negroes.
The Pawnee and Cumberland anchored
opposite Norfolk, and threatened to she'll
the city. The alarm amongst the citizens
for the safety OF the women and children
was great. The negroes were as vlndletlve
in their feelings against the officers and crew
OF these mer:0f-war rs the white lnhabIt-
ants. consequently were on the gu v1Ue to
retaliate for this outrage on their city.
There is q narrow strip OF land lying be-
tween Norfolk and the navy.yard called
"St. Helena" 4 party of negroes saw
two officers rowcd over to this island from
the ships and the barge leave them. Cau-
tiolsly and quickly the negroes secured a
boat, rowed to the island, and by force took
General Wright and Commodore Rogers
prisoners and delivered them to the city au-
thorities. That night the nayy-yard and
PENNSYLVANIA were burnt, and our brave
and fearless General William Malone, then
president OF the road, ran his empty cars
to and from Petersburg and Norfolk, making
the Federals believe them laden with troops.
Many have said OF our brave General that
he was possessed OF the power Of ubiquity
from dark till dawn.
The writer being seated opposite the
prisoners on the cars the next morning
General William II. Taliaierro took them
under guard to Richmond), heard the Cen
eral regret the rude staring and crowding
at the dep0ts to see the officers. Some
would push in the car-door at the stations.
" 1t matters not" said Commodore Rogers,
"I have been stared at by the japanese.
(de commanded one OF the United States
ships on the Japan eXpedition.) The only
regret have is the manner Twas taken
captured by negroes" They were quar-
tered that night at the Spotswood in luxu-
rious apartments, and delivered to Gov
ernor Letcher the next day, who. setting
them at liberty, treated them with courtesy,
and rs friends, not foes.
Should these lines fall into the hands Of
either officer, he must truthfully confess
that there was a magnanimity and dignity
in the courtesy extended to the first prison
ers captured in the Confederate war which
could not be surpassed.
This was the first episode in prison-life
and experience in the Confederate war.

depends on the judicious choice Of remedy. The
amount Of testimony Ia favor. OF DIR. scHENcK's

far exceeds all that can be brought to support the
pretenons Of any other medicine See DR.. Schenck'a

sons Of the highest respcctab!lity, who have been
restored to health after being pronounced ncurable
BY physicians OF acknowledgedability. scHENcK's

evidences win show; but the Is often promoted
by the employment of two other remedies which
