eee en IMPORTANT FROM NORTH CAROLINA. The Release of Fourteen Hundred Union Prisoners. THE RELEASED MEN BOUND NORTH, Colonel Corcoran and Eighty Other Officers Still in Prison at Salisbury. Arrival ~§ Governor Stanly at Newbern. HIS RECEPTION. THE UNION SPIRIT IN NORTH CAROLINA. HOW IT IS DEVELOPING ITSELF, &e., &e., "he. Our Special Army Correspondence, Wasuinaton, N. C., May 25, 1862. ‘The correspondence that I sent you, that occurred be- tween Major General Buroside and the Generals com- tmanding the rebel forces in this State, has explained qnite felty to you why the large number of Union prisoners that have bee: detained in this State have been dua ly Peleased. Thegreat exertions of Gereral Burnside ha: been, as ususl, blessed with am entire and most flatter- ing B iccess; und the joy that tt occasioned must be felt wm a} parts of the couvtry that have proved loyal and true to the censtitution and the Onion. It is, of course, ‘useless for me to dilate upon the happiness that will be experienced by thousands; from the fact that some fourteen or fifteen hundred men will be once more restored in sa’ety to their fire- Siies and ths besoms of their families and friends, Apart from those ties that are always sacred, how many more wil! rejoice that so many brave and noble fellows wil De f-eed from « lomg and cruel confinement among those wh» should have been the first to weloome thm with outstretebed hands and hospitable hearts, as Drothers. The many and well authenticated accounis ‘That we have received of the horrors of * tobacco ware- houses,’ “‘eetton mills” and “turpentine sheds,” will matertaily increase the depth of this feeling, and render the welcome that those true patriots will be certain to get on their retarn to their hom-s, more impressive and fasting. Men who nobly rushed forward at the hourof need to rescue their country from the curse of a vast rebellion, tnd who, after fighting as only such men oan fight, were fmcarceraied in Southern dungeons ani # :bjected to the mogt horrribis treatment for a year, shoulit, upon their hap- Py deliverance, receive an ovation at the hands of the peo_ ple tht would testify the way their services have been Aappruciated, and which would be to them of more value Man all the passive admiration that could be bestowed "pen them, It would stimulate them to still further ex" @ tions, and prove to the world at large how earnest are the people for the restoration of this country to its fo:mer position, as second to none on theface of the earth. New York needs no pressing en such a matter, as she, with her natural impulsiveness, 1s always ready and will- (mg \o spring forward and render the proper homage to 4b 0 who deserve it. Everywhere, then, let these no. bie fellows be received with shouts that will bea slight Tecompense for the sufferings they bave endured, and make them jee) that, in ail cases, absence des not oon- r love. At the time the news of the expected delivery of the priso ers to the federal authorities was made known, & * curvespondent was staying at Newbern, waiting ap aivance; but a desire to be among the first to ic me back totheir homes this band of patriots, as as4.wish to impart to the readers of the Hsratp ap idea of thein as they first returned to us, prompted me to step on board the steamer Cossack, Captain Ben- Bett, that had been orde- ed to proczed to Washington, N.©., ana there to receive on b.ard as many of the nen as she co-.ld safely carry and convey them to New York. We leit Newhern on the 231 of May (and by a singular ¢ ineitence it was Friday), an@a(ter @ short and very ASAnt parsece,owlug ww the kine of the ched the blockade just five mii the Cossack was much too large » get Uhrough the obstructions, s deiw them, auu we went the be lance of the way in small bo ts rowed by ands. We expected wo tin | the arst msamnt of prisoners there when we cutered the town, but we were much surprised to learn tbat we were the fi st bearers of these glad tidiags. Colonel Potter, comuap’ ing the forces here, was not aware of the tact, 1 need! not say, was mach pleased to know that such a (hig was ‘boat to take plice.

However, I will not unnecessarily, but will hope that no their passage bome, a Wasurroton, N. C., May 26, 1802. Yenterday was @ very quiet day. The churches in Washingim were all closed. The ministers, thinking dis- eretion the better part of valor,took to their heels when they loarned that the Union troops were coming, and left the cougrecations to take care of the safety of their own muls. It may be a fair spectmen of the present style of Christianity, bot it will hardly cume up to the old days of the Aponies. ‘The town itself was calm, and looked more’ like a e@emetery of vast extent than a place fer the abode of living beings. There is no street that in not covered with fine shade trees, and during the heat of the day the in- babitants keep themselves closely confined to their Bb uses, #0 that between the hours of morning and even- me the town of Washington bears the appearance of Goldsmith Deserted Village.” Towards evening the pevpie begin to mike their oppearance, and then strap- gers ave maceaware of the fact that Washington js one of the liveiicst, and at the same time one of the prettiest towns in the Old North State. You are siready aware of the circumstances attending the capture of that town by our forces, and of the st ony ly expressed Union spirit that exists there, so that the news that some fourteen hundred Union prisoners wore (o arrive there aided considerably to increase that feeli\, by the simple fact that it was @ positive thing Met (he combined arraies of the Union were to gain the doy, nud ‘bat Ube aabely rebellion would soon be draws te an end. ARKIVAL OF THE PRISONERS, On Sunday, the 26th, at about six o'clock P.

THE JOURN. PioM SALISBURY, This portion of the mes left S« isbury on Wednesd: the 2Ist May, and, ‘aking # tram of cars, under the charge of two ornpanies of soldwrs, started for Tarboro, on the way to Wash uct, They were very mich c-owded, and a number of them who were sick suffered considerably from the want of water and the «xces- sive heat: but the knowledge that they were boond home kept ufftheir sririts, and enabled them to come thro: gh in safety. Be:wecn the two places an accident occurred to the cars whi near ending in a mat dixastro's maner to th: Union coudiers. The cumstaners, as related to re by ene of the men, areas foilows:—Whie cressi'g a small but high br one (ft! e little streams some «f the b and precipitated two of the forward ea, killing outright three of the rebel several others. , ad wennding Fortmatety thy coup'ing between the cars wis broke. and not one of our men was injured. It was regareed as a good omen by the soldies, the Union cars riding in s.fety over the track, while those cecupied by the rebels were constantiy golng to destrve- tien. It highly displeaged'the conductor ef the.train, who exprossed bis opinion in the most open maneer, declaring that ‘‘there was vo kil ing these damned Yankees.” As soon as matters were properly arranged and dumages repaired, they proceeded on their way and reached the town-of Tarboro in rafety on the 24h. The next morn- ing they were placed on the flats and tho little steamer, and reached Washington on the evening of the 25th. ‘There was an impr-ssion that the men had been abun- dantly supplied with provisions for the journey; but I was credib'y informed that such was not the case, the men upon their arrival at Washir ger hay {ng hat nothing to ext since the pight previous, The stave: f their appe- tite when they reache:t the Cossack fully proved this, THEIX PRIBONS AND BOW THEY WE’ T HEATED. The most of hese men hive been imprisoned in the various cities 0} Orleans, others in Mob‘Je, Charleston, Richmond, They were confined in Sa!ibury about four months, T have information of the most reliable kind that the treatment they have received at the hands of the rebel authorities was severe in the extreme, ' p to afew weeks ago, when it became Jess so, and latterly at Salivbury they received the same quality of food us that given out to the rebel soldiers.

COUNSEL CORCORAN AT SALISHURY, Among the prisoners at Salisbury is Colonel Michael Corcoran, whose sufferings while im confinement has 80 jong been the theme of conversation, and whose release has been #o ea nestly locked for from time tw tine. While we have, on hundreds of occasions, permitted the robel officers tw return to their homes on parole, he bas beon made, a9 it were, @ victim to satisfy Southern ven- o strong Tish element that is at present in ny. Although fourteen hundred o/ the prt- s have been, or wiil be, released, not ote commis. loved vilicer hs becr so fortinate as 16 obtain his free- com, they being detained, as it is elaimed, for nos- . Among + bames published below’ appears that of Colonel Covcoren. Sick and worm out, as he is, he tae been driven from one point to another, until we now found bit at Salisbury, Norib Caruliva, in & most foeble condition, and the prospect of his release as far in the distance as ever, He and the othor officers are clesoly confined, and @ very strict watch kert over m. The prisoners ho gave ine there fac: pressed the greatest indignation at this treatment, openly, at if possible they would return to fight even be: they were regularly exchanged. Why North ina bas behaved go dishonorably this matter remo ins to be seeu, At Roancke, New and Fo t Macon, rebel officers high in rank were pert it- ted to go home by the generosity of General Burnside, while the return that we get is that stated above. The only way to bring them to their seases and to make them sew the fol'y of their cnduct is to retaliate as fur as in our power, THR RELEASED NEW YORK PRIBORERA, The following is a complete list of the New York souers tlt have been confined in the rebel prisons, most of them were captured at the battle ‘of Bull rua snd ut Manassas, (he balance were taken at various points.

During the past few days we have been visited witha revere storm of wind and rain, which has made every- thing connected with camp hfe of the most disagr-eable nature. Fields are flooded, mmature lakes and brooks have evddenly spreng up in every direction,and the ereund get erslty bas been rendered se soft ard spongy that locemotion can only be effected aukle-deep in mud. Of course, it hes materially trterferred with anything like dress parades, and for a few days, vntil th dries up acrin, camp life will be rather monotone day, it is true, the sun came ont with his ussal brill y and warmth in this tatitnde,and our artillerist’ hey® resumed their daily target practice, as we are ensbied judge by the booning of the cannon which comes tous from the mes dows on the outskirts of the city. During the storm some little injury was done to the new bridge over the ‘rent river. The strong current disturbed the supports of the fremework and toppled over two of the pile drivers, The damage was siiht, however, and wil! delay operations for a day or two ently.

The sevca of diseension have been sown; rebellion is springing up in rebellion (a case where two wrongs make aright); the pesple have tasted of the cup of secession and found it full of gail, their confederacy apd its goverament ares mockery ;and with the emotions of loyalty and patriotism rising gradually triumphant over party aud ical feelings, North Carolinians are waking up to a sense of the truth, and are impressing their legislative leaders with similar sentiments, They have found the Union troops and their Genera's persistently complying with the principles open!y proclaimed ag the olject of the war waged against rebellion, and the restoration of No: th Ca- roiiva to the Union will be ina gré.t measure due to the highiy conservative ; olicy of General Bu:nside, who, as everyd dy is well aware, has dover, in the prosecution Of the cain: sign bere, occupied bimscif fe-1he jaast with the pecvtiar institution”? which forma the (eature of the South, He tas totaliy ignored saves and slavery, aud Jons to the pe ple declared the intent ype to be the protection of kt ration of law and order, and submi ie to the federal government ond constitution, North Caroliniay can deny that this broad policy bas been pursued witho t deviation, and the fact is fast taking possession of thetr reason that the federal government ig sinc re in the avowed objects of the war which it is now ying on. ay after day this fact is becoming impressed upon their mids, Y how far this reaction has vperated alrea- dy, in the withd awal of North Carclina regiments from the fleid, and it is shrewdly conjectured that the Unin prisoners Wuely release’ here, and Now on their way North, were set al liberty by the auth viites of the State, independent ly of the Confe’erate gooernment. I we roview the history of the negotiations which passed re ative to the relca-e and exch1nge of these prisoners, we will find that the mat- ter was agitaied by Gen. Burnside immediutely after the battle of Koanoke island, and then died out through want of attention, or rather intention, on the part of the Con- federate autliotities. Bat within a few weeks past the matter suddenly comes up again, and the prisoners are released, Would it not appear as if North Carolina, anx- fous t» retrieve her standing wiih loyal States, took this buid step—he relea.ing of all the privners wituin her limi—ag tho first step towsrds reiurning to the Union? Again, a more friendly feeling on the part of the North’ Carola troos now opposing us in this immeciate vicky would seem to be exhibied in the cessaion of pickel shooting, and the litue incident mentioned in en acc mpunying letter, of the withé@rawal of @ rebel batrery of four guns on the Nouse river, would algo seew to evince a traded pat o; the authorities to stop olfensive operations against us. fo seh gta of the Bate at this time, before the inevitabiy final and complete victory ot the Union arnis oyer the who'e revolted South, will re-establish it m ch sovner in the estimation and con: @ of the North, and reopen it to the advantuges of trade and c mmerce. The wea.th of the Stace—the pine trees—hus not been impaired by the war to any extent; on the con- trury they are ready at the proper time t» yield a doable s. ply.
