 "CARRIE RREST."
 read this letter over and over, read it till knew it by heart, read 1t till 1t separated at the folds, and then, sentimental youth that was, placed it over my heart and felt happier and better for having 1t there.
 The same mail brought Howard Scott letter from Mollie Vernon, and he showed that the love of love is stronger than the love of liberty, by forgetting all about the tunnel, while, with moisture in his fine, brave eyes, he told me of the comfort this letter had brought him.
 At length the day came, or rather the night, when there were two openings to the tunnel, the new one being inside the high board fence across the way. The time had come when the pledge of secrecy could be removed from the workers and they were free to tell their friends that they had opened up Q way that might lead to liberty. By ten o'clock of the night of the es- cape, every prisoner in Libby knew of the tunnel and was eager to go through it.
 Howard and decided to keep close to- gether, so we held each others bands that we might not bc parted by tho crowd we found about the opening in the hearth ct ten o'clock. If these men had xrvfkh hn rf onlIinrc five hundred, instead of one hundred and fifty, might have gone through; but, as 1t was, they jostled about the open ing, pulling men out who were half in, and shouting and swearing like so many mad men.
 If 1t were not for the customary noise in the Upper Potomac room, the guards must have noticed the hubbub near the chimney. For fully two hours Howard and waited, still holding each others hands. At length shrewd tunneller near us raised the cry: "The guards! the guards!' and on the instant, the crowd about the opening surged away and rushed up the stairs.
 The space about the hearth was cleared and our chance had come. I dropped into the cellar first, closely followed by the Lieutenant. We needed no guide to lead us to the opening, and as soon as found it we plunged in, again in the ad- vance.
 About the middle of the tunnel we had run on a sharp bowlder that forced a slight deflection northward; here, as groped my way through, came upon a man stuck hard and fast. It proved to be an Austrian Count, Lieutenant von Klodt, of the A my of the Potomac, and a splendid officer. He had come over to see the war, and he spoke but little En- glish, and this little vanished in the

CHAPTER XIII.

l told Howard Scott of my interview with General Winder, and by way of in ducing me to believe that had nothing to fear he introduced me to Captain Flynn, of Indiana, and Captain Sawyer. of New Jersey, two officers who had been condemned to death because of two Confederatcs executed as spies by General Burnside in Kentucky. I said nothing to these gentlemen about my own case, but the fact that they bore themselves with quiet confidence that their own Government was able to pro- tect them gave me much comfort.
 For some weeks l had noticed that soon after the lights were out every all ternate night Howard Scott would creep from under our blanket and would not return till after midnight, and often not till near daylight. l also saw earth marks on his clothes, and this set me to wondering. l questioned him at first. but he avoided the subject pointedly, and did not refer to it again.
 This went on for weeks, Howard get ting thinner, dirticr and more ragged every day. It was not curiosity so much as an intense desire to do something to break up the horrible mOnOtony of my I110 LnuU upClutu me tO llnu out my friends secret for myself. One night, just as the guards were calling out: "Ten o'clock and alt's we'll" and the men in the Upper Potomac room were shouting and singing as usual, Howard got up quietly, fixed the blanket about my shoulders, then with his boots in his hands crept down the narrow lane between the ranks of prostrate men.
 Before he had gone fifty feet was up and after him. leaving my old boots be. hind. Down the steps to the Lower Chicamauga, down the steps to tbecook- room, he went. The lights from tho lamps on Carey strHct made it compara. lively bright here. 1 saw the crouch. ing figure of a man at the fireplace, be- hind one of the stoves, and as Howard approached heard faint whispering.
 went noiselessly across the room, and like revelation tho situation burst on me and l saw through my friends secret. There was figure be. sidO the hearth, but Towards had van.

 General Winder motiored me Co a seat in front of the trio, thon said:
 Two send flag of truce down tho river tomorrow, and with it goes de- mand for the release of Captain Frank Brent. Now, an old acquaintance of yours, who is on visit to the Presi- dent, assures me that you will tell the truth about Brent's case, and l wish to hcar it."
 ''Who is tho man who knows me so well?" asked.
 "General John c. Breckenridge" TO- piled General Windrr.
 Without any hesitation told my oon- nection with Frank Brent'S case, from the time l received his sisters letter till tho hour of my capture. Nor did l conceal from those present the great secret of my interest.
 'I believe your story" said General Winder, when l had concluded; but, under the circumstances, you are the very best man to be held as a hostage for Brent, and Commissioner Ould, with whom I talked about it this morning agrees with me. For the present you can remain with the other prisoners, but tho news of Captain Brent's execution will be followed by your immediate re- moval. That is all."
 General WindCr bowed, and Little Ross led me back up the prison stairs.

When Mr.. Dunnel introduced his Con-
gressional apportionment bill in the
House Of Representatives he was under
the impression that the census would
show our population to be 64,000.000 or
more, and the bill was based on that
number. Now that the official figures
q million and half less--have bsen
given out it changes the face Of the entire
matter, and it will be necessary TO pre-
pare new bill. II seems great pity
that this important question cannot be
entirely Invested Of politics, and the
number Of Representatives reduced to
two hundred or less, instead OF being in
creased as they are certain TO be. The
present numbeT--330-is entirely 10 large.
This is admitted by every one who is
familiar with the business OF the House
OF Representatives. and yet, there is not
the slightest prospect Of reduction In
the number. ON the contrary, the new ap-
portionnant is certain to make it more
than35O. Our statesmen know well enough
what ought to be done, but ii Il interferes
with schemes for party supremacy il is
not done.
