This state ment will show a difference in favor of the Penitentiary of S 1,970 46, while the gen eral statement of the officers for the same time, shows a loss of S 1,413 70 but this is easily explained..

ROBERT S. GREER, Chairman Senate Committee. GEO. W. HARPER, Chairman House Committee. Letter from Ex-Constd Owen. Vashtkgto5, D. C, Jan. 8, 1852. To the Editor of the Union : Sir : My attention has been called to the following comments in an editorial in your paper, on a publication made by me some days ago in the National Intelligencer : "2d. We mark with regret the tact that Mr. Owen says nothing of Mr. Thrash er's letter of appeal to the government and people oi uie umvea oiaies, , wo.co is uvely stated to have been addressed by him in ais prison vo Air. VOdsui uwcu lor irzuis mission to the Depaitment of State, to have been seen in Mr. Owen's hands on the 23d of November last, and which, though the Prometheus sailed from Havana on the 26th and arrived at New York on the 1st department-oi otate wnen jir. weDsier wrote his despatch of the 13th of Decem ber in relation to Mr. Thrasher's case. What is tbe explanation of this ? Did Mr. Owen forward the paper? If so, what has become of it ? If not; why was it held back at a moment when Mr. Thrash er's deportation to the Spanish mines might hang and proDawy aid nang in no small measure upon its prompt reception at the Department of State ?" In reply, please allow me to give you the facts. The letter of Mr. Thrasher, appeal ing to the government and people of the United States, was written on the 21st of November. He attempted to have it con veyed to me secretly and without the knowl edire of the prison police. It was found by an officer on the person of the negro to whom its delivery was intrusted, and fell into the hands of the captain-general. Mr. lhrasber, learning what had happen ed, made a second and successful effort in conveying to me, in a similar way, a copy of the letter. I immediately went to see him, and told him that I could not consent to receive from him communications in wri ting in violation of the conditions upon which I and others, at my intercession, had been permitted to visit him. I told him that 1 would see the captain-general upon the subject oi tne intercepted communica tion ; and if he would allow its reception, I would attend to his request concerning it. This I subsequently did. The captain-general delivered the com munication to me unopened, and I forwar ded it to the Department of State on the 2d of December. This was the first op portunity I had of sending the original. I be copy I die not send, for the reasons stated. All the papers pertaining to the case with Mr. Thrasher's grounds of de fence had been forwarded before. - You will excuse me, I trust, for taking this occasion to notice another matter, which seems to be going the usual round of the papers. I allude to the following letter ; Hat as a, Dec. 15, 1851. " To lit Editors of the Picayune : Gestlemks: I learn that Mr. Owen is boasting quite publicly of a letter of thanks received from Mr. J. S. Thrasher. On the morning that my son was taken from his prison to be hurried into exile, he sent Mr. Owen a letter ; but it was to thank him for all he had suffered from him to thank him for the long voyage he was com pelled to make, and for all letters that hare been found upon his table unopened, as he firmly belieTes Mr. Owen to be the cause of all ; nor is he alone in this belief. Mr. Owen has played a double part ; withhold ing from this government papers, protests, and instructions which my son wished him to present, and forcibly ; and has assisted this government in causing his rum. In my last interview with my son, among his last words were these:. "Mother, if I had not gone to Mr. Owen on that fatal morning, and implored him to at least make the attempt to save those fifty human lives. I never should have been in this dungeon , nor would my trial have taken the course it has done. I also said to hkn, And whateply will you make to your country, sir, and to those mothers,' and those wives, and those sisters, when theT iall ask you i where are QV .ion. and aiy hasband, and my brother, Wm: you Ea?e proncmced.as beyond your right to interere in behalf of lie nas sworn iu uaic u iyun, T , 1.-..- V.,.. . and now he has it." I should have written to you Wfore this gone. He sailed this morning for Chark ton, and can harm us no more. Yours, respectfully," ' Mrs. P. P. THRASHER. I do not call public attention to this let ter with any view of enu-nm; into a detail ed refutation of its several statements, but barely to show, by its own exhibition, how utterly abandoned my accusers are ! I his letter purports to have been written by Mrs. Thrasher, the mother of Mr. John b. Thrasher. 1 will not do that lady, who is known to me as an exceedingly plain, and, as I supposed, kind woman, the injustice of entertaining for a moment the idea that she ever put her name to it, or authorized it to be put there, with a knowledge or under-! standing of. its" contents. If she did so, however, they are but the swimming fan cies of an agitated and distressed mind," their ' uncertain lights flickerinfir on the thick darkness of parental distress." In what estimation, then, ought those to be held who can have the hardihood in this way, and by resorting to such means, to 6ay that Mr. Thrasher's letter to me, of the 26th of November, which I have hereto fore published, was " to thank me for all that lie had suffered from me!" " to thank me for the long voyage he was to take " and for " all letters found vpon my table uno pened!" The man (not the woman) who could fabricate such stories about a letter which speaks for itself, and which all can read and interpret for themselves is base enough and bold enough to proclaim any calumny, however monstrous. Nothing is too atro cious for such a character ; and to submit the merits or demerits of my conduct to a tribunal where such a witness would be be lieved for one moment, would be a personal degradation that I shall never incur. As some persons, however, may see this article who have not seen the letter of Mr. Thrasher to me to which it refers, I ask at tention again to it. It is as follows : """Mono CasIxe, (Havana,) - : . "November 26, 1851; "Dear sir : Aboit to be embarked for Spain to fill a most iniquitous sentence, I have to thank you, which I do most sin cerely, not only for your exertions in my behalf, which we can only regret have been unavailing, but also for many acts of kind ness which you have extended to me. "You are well aware thap I do not go sadly to my imprisonment, because not on lr Vo To ...r.in : i .1 i ,ij may x oui utuctuv muuuenwui me cuar ges against me, but also because I do not bt-.lievf! mv rnnnhrmpn -anil cnfFcr nn. J w - j ' I . A Ut.V . AA J just sentence to be carried out. "Reiterating my thanks to you, I remain your obliged servant, "J. S. THRASHER. "A. F. Owen, esq. Consul of the Uni ted States of America." This letter was a voluntary offering on the part of Mr. Thrasher, made of his own accord. I knew nothing of it till ;t was brought to me by Mr. Tyng, who informed me that Mr. B. F. Thrasher, the brother of the writer of it, had requested him to do so, saying that his brother, Mr. John S. Thrasher, desired it to be done. This, too, was after Mr. John S. Thrasher had left for Spain, and after the denunciations of me of which his mother is made to give 6uch an affecting account ! Obliged to you, gentlemen, for the act of justice hkve done me in gvi J eaders Jthe eiposition i felt itfadu your position I felt it due to my self and the public to make of my official conduct, I am, respectfully, your obedient ser vant, A. F. OWEN. CCJ3 Two hundred thousand dollars worth df North Carolina State bonds have been sold recently at Raleigh at 1 to 2 per cent, premium. Chas. A. Williams, The heartless wretch whose name heads" this advertisement, came to Holly Springs in the fall of the year 1850, from Chicago, Illinois. He sta ted that his father lived in Rochester, Sew York. Said Williams is a Coach and Buggy Blacksmith ; stout built, black hair and whiskers; stoop shouldered, five feet eleven inches high.' My ob ject in thus describing this man is, tc put the pub lic on their guard against a villain and scoun drel, whose whole life has been spent in the com mission of acts that would justly consign him to the penitentiary or gallows. It is stated that he left a wife in Chicago ; he also has a wife now in Memphis, I am informed. In April last he married my daughter, and left her in November, in a situation of helplessness and misery. - Sometime last fall he stole fitly dollars from his employer in Columbus, Miss., and soon after left the country. The last I heard from him, he was in the "Western part of Missouri, traveling with a woman, wh', I have no doubt, he married after he left Holly 'Springs. The scoundrel whose baseness has brought misery and woe to the hearth-stone of an inno cent and hitherto happy family, deserves the scorn and contempt of every community, and I sincerely hope that every friend to the cause of virtue, will be on the look-out for this DEMON in human shape, as he may yet if not appre hended and punished bring sorrow and afflic tion to many a family now happy and contented. I hope every newspaper in the country will give publicity to this advertisement, and it may be the means of saving some innocent female from the snares of this Devil incarnate. . - - JAMES H. KING.
