Expcrience In the Recent Storm OF
Two Escaped COnvtcts.

About s O'Clock last night two white men
reported at the Second police station rs
professional tramps, and asked for some
thing to eat and accommodations for the
night. Captain Parater consented to give
them lodging, but Informed them that he
could not feed them, as he had no authority
TO do anything else than furnish sleeping
place. except TO prisoners. Their general
hard appearance caused Captain Parater to
onestion them rather closely as TO their
antecedents, when, after some preyarica-
ton. they acknowledged they were es-
caned prisoners from the Maryland
nen,tentiary, and had gotten this far
Inv tramping since last Wednesday, when
they made their escape. But cold and hun
Ger had got the best Of them, and in their
desperation they were forced to apply to
tbe police here, preferring to be returned
70 their former quarters In the Maryland
states prison to undergoing further desti-
tuition and suffering. They gave the names
~ .Iohn Killmon, aged thirty-eight, and
Matthew Stynniman, aged eighteen. They
cav they walked all the way, coming
tbrouoh Alexandria, where negro gave
them two old coats. They still bad on the
conyicts' shirts and pants, the latter being
hidden by old blush oyeralls. The Young
man Il rather good-looking, but the older
one Il not so prepossessing in appearance.
Thcv will be brought before the Police
Court this morning.

An Eug1ishman's Protest.
Tn the Eilff0r of The DiSpdtch:

Sr,-NOticing your article in this morn
ing's issue, / am surprised as an English
man, with true English blood Ill my veins,
that any question could be raised respect
ing the safety OF the Princess Louise IN
southern cline desiring TO take UP her
abode among its people-and am also dou-
bly, surprised that any paper OF that Quaker
City should be so ignorant OF the ways and
feelings Of the Sunny South as to iniuse
among the people OF the North or any
other community spirit OF revenge for the
past. Were they possessed OF the patriotic
feeling we give every true American the
credit of having, the article in its columns
would have given every opportunity 10
discourage any feeling rs to the safety OF
orr roval visitor instead OF throwing out
hints otherwise. North and South are now
under one flag. Therefore let Americans
as well as Englishmen under it show our
great appreciation OF so illustrious visitor
not as a royal princess, but as woman OF
high birth, born of family whose royal
position endear them TO the hearts OF every
Christianized community, and let us help
to welcome her in the same way as we
would any illustrious parsonage in TINS
great republic. Let her see by the action
of our people that no military need be
required to protect her person, but that
Americans rs well as Englishmen in this
their adopted country look with pride
on a family OF royal distinction, who have
helped to elevate all communities by the
tone and character Of their social life:
Therefore let IT 20 forth to all the United
States as the expression Of Englishmen
that they join with Americans In giving
assurance Of every security OF life and per-
son in this sunny..So and that the same
protection will be assured to her as 10 any
other thunderstorm subject OF these United
States, and that Richmond would be ready
to welcome her as the daughter OF one OF
the best and noblcst men of the eighteenth
! csntury.
