Let two examples iMnftd for all the rest. On the night of the filli Os N'dvem ! Iter, I Ktid. a ttuinel was oomplctod from White Oak Square, breaking ground on Lai® street, in the city muDiuilib. Through this subterranean passage, seventy-eight meii etteeted their joyful and sileut exodus. Eight, or jierhnjis aa many as ten were re captured, and hanged np f*y ffiufe thumbs, by the humane Cantmandant. I The remainder were ntnnberc<i*no more with na in our mhtfortunes. j The writer entered these eaea|tefl and ■ recapture#, by name, in the prison | records, and »|toaka advisedly. About the same jtcriod two men . were taken iu the overt act of prose cuting another tunnel. In punish ment, they were east into White Oak i dungeon. They were welcomed by seven other prisoners nlreudy confluent there for the ollcnws of kindivd en* , ornaity. Hut the ruling pro|tenuity of the tunneiera eotifil not lie so ex tinguished. in a few days the rumor electrified the L'alti|i, Unit the entire fwamtiiiity of the dungt'Oii prisonertt had cscapod—ttno ithmi throw/h a tun uel! And so they hath it wa# a , grave, practical joke, anti ft>r a week our guardians wore a frown so omin ous, that even the must reckless rub scarce dare to smile. Thus goadad, proverbial Yankee) ingenuity advanced another atep—it might be termed a stride, Tito old barracks weft.* Wheeled into parallel lines, new ones built, and the kitchen buildings abolished, u few feet iicing partitioned off tfoiu taclr liairack to stibsorve onr moderate culinary necessities. This increased j the capacity of the prison to lti,OUO| men. Every building and olyect of| sixe was elevated ou projst, four feet; above the surface. Camp Douglas, | or rather “Little Dixie," as our end i of it was called, stood upon stilts., 15;,• stooping slightly, the guards could ! s« .«p the lint, sandy surface, at a i ghti.ee, everywhere, from feueu to fence. Tunttelliig was at an end. Anew fence was run, also, across tbe Camp, from North to South, iso lating the prisoners from the Federal garrison, rgs-ciul patrols wont per manently detailed to [icrrorin the duties within our enclosure, anti no other Yankee were allowed to pas# the gate. The patrols loved money, and were bribed from first to last, to render any assistance in their power; but they never stood as sentinels on thu fence, ami were powerless to serve In our e«ea|»c. Bribery for escape was rendered Impossible. After these herculean labors the; Yankee intellect rcsposeA wearily. Confederate resources, however con tinued active. Check-mated at two vitol points, the ragged sons of war surveyed the field aucw. The passage under the fetich wits barred ; Lot noth ing daunted, their aspirations took a bolder flight. They resolved to try once more tbe high-way over. Plato once irreverently defined man as a biped without pinions. The force of the fast olauae of this curt definition, wa# then Keenly felt by those environed men. They had no winga, and couUl not fly; but then even angels had once condescended, in a dream, at least, to climb. Lad ders were secretly constructed, and It soon come al>ont that a nightly fusiUde was comprehended to an nounce a rush uptflj the wall. Many escaped thus, before the 1 anWi? con ceived the happy expedicitof placing IKiwerful reflecting lamps at easy distances throughout the camp. Thu, prison was thus rendered almost as bright by night as by day. Instead of a single rapid shot in the dark, amid the melee of an onset the sen tinel was given ample facilities for several deliberate rounds. A few ex erimeuts demonstrated that tile haz ards cf scaling too were inereaaed to a degree that demanded an abandon ment of that system. The saino ca pacity to estimate chances, let to the adoption of a less dangerous, because more war like method. , Organized squads, usually of from four to six, armed themselves with brick bats, and advanced by night to the assault. Deploying behind the angels of tbe barracks, they opened fire on tbe sentinels at short range, and under cover of this primitive, yet really forrJu% Artillery, axoinen advanced 1 'hfcvfeßec and made a breach, jjflggjpw a tuna was de tailed to /rowMfetJWwikei over tin. no ,ruat 1 'gTMmipni;' I •to*#.

The trip which we have just returned, unlof wltich we Imve given our reader#' running note# made during its progress, has convinced us that northwesUm ileorglu aud north western Alahimn constitute the great mineral regioulof the United States. No doubt tie bolt extends through A iabamn nearly to the VVealern bouu dry of t he Stile, and through (Jeorgia to, and pi rhapf lioyoud the Western line# of North ana South Carolina. Hut the limit# first named are un equaled iu the great abumlauce aiui j variety tit ihu tires to be found in ( them, their stoewfiLiUtv. aud the an perior' d'a;-' gcoau-r pdtliou of them it ;,C( -nsas if Nature, ill a : propitious m.'.: ujn?, had emptied into i tliis region imtuitwe stores ot all the | mineral# valuable for the purpoitua of : art or eonmurri'e Other regions were i favored each with Ufi re ot them, but | the seetioo above defltted had the i wltole of tltem showered down (or ■ np-lieavedb/Jterally one upon another. | To convoy an idea of the great variety of these, minerals, we copy a tiiemo | random mud. of specimen* exhibited [tousby D. it. Mitchell. Esq., in hi* olllcc at Itone—all of which were obtained from localities very near that city: Uoperas Orcj) Alum Ore, Uokhbuaring jQimrta, \ciettlsr Iron Ore, Hematite Iron Ore, Slate, ttO’i two localities, I’lutnliago- unexcelled, I ariegaUd Shale, overlying Coal, Black Slate, overlying Coalj Coal of all varieties, Whetatone, Oilwtotic, fc. ..JFuilefs Earth—white and varic ! gated, PonMaht—-very fine. In tie catensivo and varied collec tion of minerals exhibited to onr company at CartereVille, there were several important ones not named in the above list. Marble and other beautiful material for slabs,ornament* and building purposes, abound in this section. I’emisylvatiia lias iron «n»t «m»t: several of tlie New England -State# have marble and granite of a valuable kind; Missouri has iron and lead; Hut, neither of these States can, in tlie minerals which it furnishes, com pare with tlie section of (jeorgia nnd Alabama above described, which lias nil of them and a great many more. We do not name lead in the list of ores seen during our late trip, but we understand that it, too, is to bu found iu that region. All that i# needed i» capital and enterprise to put-then crude minerals iu the shape required , for Their abundance, ac- sUjterior quality will make succere in this enterprise a cer tainty, Tlie extensive development of one mineral will lead to die de velopment of another, until attention will be strongly directed to the incx liaustable wealth of this region, an<l the miners, smelters and rollers of poorer and more exhausted regions will see that they must conn.* South to follow their occupations profitably and to make their investments pay. ! We lielleve that the development of the vast mineral wealth of upper Georgia and Alabama cannot much longer be postponed, and that when the needed capital aud energy arc directed to the work, those sections will prosper and flourish in an extra ordinary manner. T —- ■ nii marerenrerenw. . ■■■ ■ - --— ^——# | The Skeleton (land, i II will not fee remembered by many that now thirteen years ago, a mail named Jolly, who Uv tH i in Dekalb ci>unt;y* was ay’sterlousiy wade with after having left hfe hcn«e % vfeit Nashville.

When he was wway about a week his w ifo and friends became alarmed- Nothing had been heard from him—ud one had iseeirfiitn on the jonnfeyi After a couple of day#’ aOtceli wa# instituted. No trace W any sort coultl lie found, except that titc marks of feet, as if those of strug gling men, were found on the banks of tlie Cumberland, about two miles from a landing, where it was expected Jolly was to take a boat to come down the fiver. Several small sap -I!ngs were either torn up by tlie root* or broken, thus giving evidence of a tlon-e combat. Save those marks, nothing that count, in any way, throw any light ou the fate of Jolly, was ever discovered. After remaining two years on tlie farm, nnd when her two little children were in a condition to run about, she liecanio wearied of a scone tlie contemplation of which afforded her nothrug hut pain. It was a scene once bright nnd happy turned suddenly into desolation and gloom, and the fair young widow and sorrowing mother wa# losing lief health. Hhc, by the advice of friends and physicians, sold out and cnuiu to Nashville. In about th ree years after wards she married the clever, but •ccentfic, Dr. Harper, who died down South tiuring thu war. She has since | remained a w idow, possessed of con ! (adorable property, and an interesting ; family of three girls ami a boy> These \ seemingly irrelevant particulars will have a aiguiUeuneje when we taU tUg suaHnis reader that TJto early bftt ttn sdoee*»AU suitor toiler hand, having never married, engaged in the South ern cause ulso, and was in the samu regiment in which Dr. Harper was medical officer. lie got along in apparent good terms with Dr. llar|>er, Iml was frequently heard to ettrso him bitterly iu private, and, itt fact, the day before his death, had a tierce alternation with him, which was only prevented ripening into n fatal col lision by thu intervention of superior officers. For a long lime after tlie death bt flarpel the manlier of it was consid ered strange, but the thought of it finally died out of tlie minds of men. After tlie war the fierce but bullied suiter of her young days eatnc to Nashville and renewed acquaintance with the twice widowed flaine of his youth. Very recently he was on th' poiut of succeeding; in fact, some preliminary arrangements were al ready made for a wedding, when a derangement occurred in the water pi lat which supplied the house of the widow Harper, in South Nashville. Plumbers were set to work on the pipe, but could make no improvement on it. Finally, tlie street was rip|icd j up to ascertain the cause of tlie water stoppage. It was found. At the mouth of tlie pipe, where it was at titcited to tlie main street supply pi|ie, the skeleton of a hand was found ; the fingers were closed up like a knot, firmly jammed into the small pqie. On being taken out, a jack-knife was found clutched iu the flngersj covered ; with rust, of course, but sufficiently , sound and perfect fit shape to w.o*» ] that it hatl been once the property of the man to whom the widow was on- j gaged to be married. Upon one of tlie fingers was found, also, a diamond ring which her Bret husband wore when he left their house, in DeKalb county, thirteen ftan ago. When these particular* became known, the .intended bridegroom hastily left town, fend the good lady became sick. An attempt was made to hush np these facts, but they gradually leaked out. — Exchange. Obedient to rin: Divine Command. —Last week we published an obituary of Mr. Beqjamin Lasacrtor, who died “leaving An immense generation, eon-1 sisting of six children, two hundred and twenty-tine grand children, great grand children and great, great grand children."
