Arrival of Released Union Priseners—Ex- tracts from Late Richmond Papers. [From the Agents of the Associated Presa} Foatrxss Moroz, August 19 —Lest evening one hundred and sixty Union officers, who have been long incarcerated in Southern prisons, arrived at Fortress Monroe. They are from Salis- bury, North Carolina. and other Southern prisons, and came here via Richmond. They make bitter complaints of their usage and hard fare. Ar e- ments could not be for an extra boat to these released prisoners to Washington, as was petet, and they go by the Baltimore boat to- * night The following is taken from the Richmond Examiner of August 16: “FROM THE SOUTH SIDE. “We have no news of interest from the enemy on the south side. “The Petersburg Express, whose columns for a time teemed with the very latest from City Point, and innumerable other points, now comes to us with the sad admission that ‘we could learn nothing of the enemy’s movements on James river yesterday.’ “Where is the ‘reliable free negro?” What has become of the man with the ‘strong eye- oe, who used to watch the Yankees so closely ‘rom the highest points of St. George? Have both these invaluable reporters gone the way of ‘our cavalry,’ Who, since the taste they obtained of the enemy's quality, have been content to snuff the Yankees from afar?’ “Two hundred wounded Yankees who fell into our hands at Cedar creek, have beea conveyed to Cherlottesville. The majority of them are said to be too seriously wounded to warrant much ex- pectation of recovery. ‘There are among them a dozen or more commissioned officers. A colonel has had a leg and an arm amputated.” The same paper in speaking of the latest foreign news claims the ingest sympathies of France and England; and in speaking of the proclamation of President Lincoln, and the action of Congress in authorizing him to draft, says: ‘‘There is an election this felland they want tocarry it. The want to draft democrats, and they will draft them tf prevent their voting. They bave the power and they can arrange it.’’ The same paper says: ‘Buel is announced to have bung five respectable citizens of the South in retaliation for the death of Gen. McCook.” This is declared a brutal and bloody murder. een — are rigs to Lave been ogre ted on ple an rope! happening to be in the locality of the altece ps MoGook, and Gen Buel being Known as one of the most lenient of the Yankee generals, the fact proves that these acts of arson and banging emanate from head- quarters. They allege outrnges upon widows and orphans, and upon the privacy and feelli of women, and wholesale plunder and destruction. ‘Something must be done to put an end to this insoleace—thes: grievanses and insult out- rages. We bave the subjects 5 en which to in- filct the ‘terrible retribution. The public mind ja convinced that unless full and fierce retaliation is inflicted this system of murder and outrage will continue togoon. How can we hold demons in awe, unless we treat them as demons!” The same paper, speaking of the election in North Carolina, claims thet in the election of Vance over Johnson by 30,000 te 40,000 majority no important principles respecting the settlemen' of the present war have been decided—that the eerie of principles of both parties are iden- tical.
