GEN. HAtLECK’S THIRD ORDER.
<'nc portion of the letter of our St.
J.'V.is correspondent, winch, appears
in another column of this paper, dc
{.t-rve? attention, especially in the light
thrown upon such matters by Secretary •
Cameron's report. If the “Third Order
has become so notoriously obnoxious at St.
L'.-rls. that the Intimate friends of Gen.
llypeck me attempting to shield him by
averting it was inspired by higher authority
M "Washington, it is now time to inquire and
K-ek diligently who the authority at the
Capital is- Certainly not the Secretary of
War. in whose clear and statesman-like
document, views are promulgated quite at
variance with this order of Gen. Bollock,
expressed, 100, without a shadow of diplo
matic quibbling, or beating about the bush.
The “ Third Order" could not live twenty
fair hours where the principles of this
masterly report arc applied. It will now
l.e time to discover whether military orders
of this kind originate at the Capital, or are
mainly and more truly to be traced
to the pro-slavery sympathies, aqjj chival
rous proclivities of the queers who issue
them.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
A Tlslt to Washington Jail.
A BLACK HOLE OF.CALCUTTA AND THE
BLACK AKD WHITE THINGS THEREIN.
[From Onr Own Correspondent.]
Wa-hixgtoh, December 2,1861
In company with Senator Grimes, of lowa,
Chairman of the Committee on the District of
Columbia, I Tisited Washington jail a day or
two since, and spent the most disagreeable j
half hour I have known in many years. Im- |
agine a dingy three story hnilding, of the
prison architecture of 1790, of about the di
mensions of the North Market building in
Chicago, with 218 persons, black, white and
mixed, packed into it like herrings, close,
foul, without ventilation or any apparent
drainage, and you can form some taint idea of
the atmosphere which saluted our nostrils as
wc passed from the jailor’s ward-room into !
the prisoners’ apartments. A heap of lime
lay slacking and fuming on the lower floor for
the purpose evidently of disinfecting the air in
the main passages. The fumes did not reach
the prisoners’ quarters, or if they did, they
wore driven back by the superior strength of
the exhalations there engendered.
The first candidate wc met was an insane sol
dier. The jailer told us that though quite
harmless, he was as crazy as a loon. His looks
fully confirmed the testimony. His clothes
were stringy and baggy and thatched, with
more straw than Edgar was bedecked with
when he met King Lear in the forest. His hair
also was plentifully adorned with the same
trimming. “It’s no use doing anything for
him,” said the jailor.” “No,” replied the un
fortunate, “no use doing nothing for me;"
and he trotted away to his pile of short, dirty j
straw, where he dropped down on all fours,
I and rooted in it like a pig. The jailer explained
I to us that he hadbclongcdto the regular army;
v, hen his aberrations were first noticed he was
sent here; that he (the jailer) had sent for the
brigade surgeon to examine him and remove
him to the asylum; that the surgeon had ex
amined him and pronounced him insane, and
promised to have him taken care of. This was
long enough ago to have removed the asylum
to the lunatic, but here he was still, rooting in
his straw heap, and presenting his vacant, pit
eous, unwashed face to stray visitors.like our
selves.
Wc nest turned into a corridor from which
half a dozen ceils opened. Theprisonersi
f.Vcut in number, were standing oa
the brick floor, with very little elbow room,
and with no aperture for tbc admission of
fresh air, except the grating of tbc iron door.
Wc essayed to enter, but tbc odor which met
us was intolerable. It was useless to bold
our handkerchiefs to our noscs—thc palpable
stench came into our eyes, mouths and ears.
We retreated in good order, however, and
held a brief conversation at the entrance with
the inmates. One of them was a private in
Company E, Col. Brodhead’s Michigan caval
ry ; said he had been sent to iail forgetting “a
little drunk,” and falling out of line. Proba
bly he fell out of line a long distance, but ac
coVding to the commitment book he had done
nothing worthy of confinement in such a hole
ns this. (Senator Grimds sent word to a
Lieutenant of Company E, statingthese facts,
who has promised to look into the matter and
got the man back into daylight and interline.)
Another one was a private hi Company F, 2Jd
Pennsylvania regiment, sent to jail for drunk
enness. There “were others in the corridor
who wore United States uniforms and who
were there for the same offence. These
things would not be worth noticing
hut lor the obvious fact that when a man gets
into Washington jail for any less crime than
murder or grand larcenv, the world outside
forgets him“as though lie were in his grave.
A soldier might grow to old age there, if it
were not for"the villanous atmosphere of the
place, and finally die with an. account of
drunkenness unsettled against him.
Wc then went to the negro quarters, female
department. If the sight of an insane soldier
had been a surprise to us, the first object that
wc now encountered was something more.
“Who are yon—what arc you here for?”
asked the Senator from lowa, addressing a
mulatto girl who sat on the floor sewing her
apron. , „
“Youknowwho Mary Kill is? I h longs
to Man* Hall,” she replied.
“What arc you here for?” was the next
query.
“For safe keep’n, I spose.’
We turned to the jailer for an explanation.
He told us it was true. The woman was the
slave of Marv Hall, who had scut her to the
jail for safe keeping. Mary herself keeps the
largest house of ill’ fame in Wsishington, and
the Government .keeps a hoarding house for
her negroes.
An intelligent and comparatively neat look
ing colored woman next attracted our atten
tion, when the following conversation ensued:
Q. —Whut are you here for?
A-—Don’t know.
Q.—Who sent you here ?
A.— n officer.
G—Arc vou a fugitive? Did you run away ?
A—i Sot ’zactlv. My master lived near Al
exandria. When the soldiers he wanted
to move to the Junction and. so I came away—
me and mv little boy—lie's up stairs.
0— What was your master’s name ?
1— Triplett.
o—What ftcy bring you here for ?
JL— When the man. took me I
to go and see General Mansfield. He
eaid he Would take me to General Mansfield,
| but he brought me here. I haven’t seen Geu
-1 era! Mansfield yet morc’n six mouths,
i We asked the jailor how many fugitives he
H (: replied, forty-five. The average at
tendance wa*s somewiiat larger, but a gang of
males had been takeu out lately to work on
the Capitol grounds. We went up-stairs
where the woman said her little boy was, and
where, it was plain, her own heart was. In
the main corridor were twenty or thirty male
negroes, of all ages, from six to sixty. Wc
should not have recognized the sou of the wo
man below, but forlhe help of the jailor, he
was so much whiter than his mother. These
negroes had, of course, committed no crime
except that of being bom. The army came
among them, their rebel masters fled, and we
put them in the third story of the Washington
Jail, where wc fed them in a trough, on
Fonrieritc principles, where no one has any
better chance than his neighbors, unless he
gets into it lengthwise. Four of them were
plaving a game ol old sledge with a mutilated
pack of cards, and a dozen others were look
ing on ; one was dancing the double-shuttle
and the remainder were singing or talking and
into the quarters of the free blacks.
Most of them arc confined for petty offences,
such as thieving and vagrancy. One, bright
eyed intelligent looking fellow, about twenty
years of age, being asked why he was there,
replied: ‘‘For walking in the street with a
slave girl.” The hardened ruffian!
It was true. The laws of this district pro
liibit such laxity of walking. The theory or
philosophy, of the case is, that the girl might
fall in love with him and excntually run away
forhissakc. . .
Wc came down and went out. We must
have a new jail,” remarked Senator G.
“What,” I asked, “would you do with the
old one?” . ~, ..
“ Put a barrel of powder into it aud blow it
mp,” he replied.

[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
AVashikoton, December 4,1861.
The debate in the Senate, to-day, by IViL |
son, Hale, Fessenden, Sumner, and Grimes,
on the Washington Judiciary, the jail, and
slavery in the District of Columbia, was re
freshing. Nobody defended cither institution.
Some bill will probably pass, abolishing
slavery in the District of Columbia, either im
mediately by compensating legal owners, or
by declaring all bom after a certain date free.
Senator Wilson, in introducing joint resolu
tions directing for the discharge of all colored
persons in the city jail now held to answer
for specified crimes, read from an elaborate re
port made tothe Provost Marshal (Porter,)
by a detective employed to examine
into the condition of tie !nc?.rceratt2
contrabands. He (the detective) states that
he found sixty in filth,-a prey to contagious
diseases. without shoes, with insufficient
clothing, bedding, or fire, and iu a half starv
ing condition. The detailed statements of the
whole number Incarcerated, follow In the re
port. The majority belonged to rebel masters,
from whom they ran away, some because of
ihc threat of being taken to Manassas, some
in consequence ofill-treatmcnt, some because
they would not follow their masters to the
rebel army. Two or three were free menfrom
Maryland, Minnesota, or Pennsylvania, who
accompanied Northern regiments. Several
belonged to owners whose political sentiments
do not appear. Several were in the employ o f
the Government at the time of their arrest.
.Among them, one once belonging to John A.
Washington, who declined to go to Manassas
to wait on bis master and Col. Lee. One be
longed toTodcrington, once an officer of the
Senate, but now captain in the rebel army who
left his slave here till the end of the war.
Representative Gurley’s confiscation and
colonization scheme, of which I gave you no
tice yesterday, will provide for the freedom of
all slaves belonging to the rebels, their em
ployment during this war in such way as may
be best calculated to bring it to a successful
termination, their apprenticeship at its close
to loyal masters for six years, and their final
colonization to some tropical climate selected
meanwhile by Commissioners. Their wages
arc to contribute to the colonization fund.

Mr. WILSON, of Mass., called attention to
a list of colored persons confined in prisons
in Washington, sent there by persons calling
themselves “Justices of the Peace.” The re
port had been made by detective Allen to the
Provost Marshal. Mr. Wilson accordingly
introduced a resolution for their release.
Mr. HALE, of N. H., advocated the passage
of the resolution. He remarked that wc are
now supporting the slaves of the rebels for
them during the war. He thought this
country thc'most corrupt, from the bupreme
Court down, of any other in the world. The
coxirse of justice in this city was the most
extraordinary. He argued . that It was
the duty of Congress to look into the
administration of justice In this District.
Mr. WILSON remarked that he had visited
tlicse pool- prisoners »a
things'of-n bicli lie Lad spoteu, tin, cruel
condition in which the inmates were placed.
He endorsed the views expressed by Mr. Hale
as to the administration of justice in this Dis
trict. He was willing that his resolution
should be referred to tjio Judiciary Com*
kcDOI’GALL, of Cal., suggested that
instead of dcuouneiiur the administration of
justice in the District,“they should propose a
proper remedy and discuss the best mode of
reform.
Mr. FESSENDEN, of Me., rcmunced to the
Senators that durimr a former session, while it
was proposed to make for a
proper prison in this citv, the necessity for
withholding the moans fur other purposes,
viz: for the prosecution of the war, was
timed. As to the judiciary system in this
District, he had for years looked on the
hopelessness of reform, but now he saw an
opportunity for a change, and therefore trust
ed that the* entire subject would be fully and
properlv dealt with. With regard to fugitive
slaves, there was much feeling on that ques
tion, and it was intimately connected with the
difficulties In which the country is now in
volved. He wanted to mete out justice and
discriminate as to the facts.
The debate was farther continued. Among
the speakers was Mr. Sumner, in earnest ap
probation of his colleague's resolution, which
was referred to the Committee on District of
Columbia Affairs.

of abolishing slavery in the District, with com
pensation to the loval owners of the slaves.

Gen. Smith, ofPadacah—EOs Royalty.
[Correspondence Cincinniti Commercial, 3d-]
Brigadier General C. F. Smith, who h-as
charge of ~,, l sw)st, is exceedingly unpopular
_<fK the rebels, and refusing to aid L mou
men who have been driyeu from their

sece«h. Only a few days ago a party of L mon

was taken out of jail u r r** 0
and then shot and bayoneted through the body
several times. I have the above facts from a
gentleman who saw the dead body thus mu
tilated, and knew them to be reliable. Scores
of men are here from counties south and west
of this, who have had to leave their families
and flee for their lives. Their farms and stores
have been plundered, and their wives and chil
dren are threatened with destruction, yet they
dare not return, and cannot prevail on those
having anthoritv here to aid them in the least.
An effort is being made to have General Smith
superceded, and many think It will be succcss
fnh
An incident occurred here last night that
may lead to something serious. Next door
to Gen. Smith’s headquarter*} lives a seces
sion family of some pretensions, with wuom
the General is ca very friendly terms. In
the same vicinity is encamped one of the
Indiana, regiments, who have been greatly
ahhoyed by the waving of secession dags
from the windows as the boys passed and
repassed the houses. The officers of the
regiment concluded last night that they
7/bnid nut a stop to these proceedings. Ac
cordingly, afifif supper, they went quietly to
the house, having wuu them a Union llag,
and demanded that it should be put up on
the building, and be allowed to remain there.
To this objections were made, and a great
outcry raised by the family, which brought
■ out General Smith, who demanded what was
the matter, and when told, ordered the offi
cers to return to their quarters, or he would
have them arrested. As soon as Gen. Wal
lace became aware of the above facts, he or
dered out the entire regiment, and with them
repaired to the house, when the flag was
quictlv unfurled from the roof of the build
ing, and it floats them in triumph to-day.
During the excitement one of Gen. Smith’s
aids, who attempted to interfere, was very
roughly handled, being down and
beaten in a shocking manner. M hetlicr this
will lead to a rupture between the Generals
or not remains to be seen.
Wo all hope that the War Department may
soon find a field of operations where the Gen
eral in command may have an opportunity to
display his loyalty more conspicuously than
he has here.
From Tennessee.
[From the' Cincinnati Commercial.]
Private advices prove that King Harris, of
Tennessee, sits uncomforlablv on his throne;
and the transfer of Jett’s imperial council to
the City of Rocks can only give him that poor
consolation which misery derives from compa
ny. A regiment of volunteers under his last
call, said "to number 1,700 men, which had
rushed together, under Col. John Head, a
lawyer of (Jallatin, impelled by the delusion,
no doubt, which became pretty general in that
part of Dixie a month ago, that two hundred
and fifty thousand Confederate troops would
be in Southern Kentucky within a few weeks,
and anv amount of Enfield rifles smuggled in
from "England, encamped at the Red‘Sul
phur Springs, not far from the Ken
tucky line. The other day they palled
up stakes, bumM their camp equipage
and returned home, on the ground’ that they
could get no arms. No doubt this and similar
failures caused the tyrant’s last splutteration
about the militia. *Tlic truth is, there are
many people in Middle Tennessee who will
not bring in their private arms at the crack of
Master Harris’s whip. They desire to keep
them for the express purp9sc of shooting him
on the wing, when, he begins a stampede like
that of Governor Jackson. But until the Fed
eral army marches to their relief, the fretful
usurper will subject them to all manner of ty
rannical inquisition. The rebels of Southern
Kentucky, too, are making it manifest by
their actions that the advance breezes of a
cornin' 1 * storm have shaken the leaves about
them." Some of the secession merchants of
Glasgow have transferred their stock to Frank
lin, and others are growing uneasy.

The Cavalry Skirmish near Roll a. Mo.
[Holla Correspondence (8d) St. Louis Democrat.]
Major Bowen's cavalry, at Salem, Dent
countv, were attacked this morning at four
o’clock, bv three hundred rebels under Colo
nels Freeman and Turner. They charged up
on a house in which some of our men - were
sleeping, killing and wounding fifteen of the
latter, shooting them through the windows
and as they emerged from the house.
Maj. Bowen, whose headquarters were at
the Court House, one hundred yards distant,
rushed out and rallied his men, when a street
fight took place. Our men charged upon the
rebels, driving them from the streets, and fol
: lowed them some distance out of town. i.hey
i were perfectly cleaned out, and fled.
Manv of the enemy were killed and wound
ed but the number was not ascertained.
Maior Bowen had possession of the town, and.
sent to Rolla for a surgeon, and a reinforce
ment of fifty men. Capt. Dodd, of the rebel
force was badlv wounded, and takeuprisoncr.
He says Turner had 130 men under his com
mand. x
Amon"* the dead on our side wa» Jamc»
Ayres, of Company A, Capt. Stejena. The
follotvimr wounded were ascertained: William
Cartwright, Wilson Randolph, John Hooper,
and Samuel Matlock, of Company A.
The Missouri Hegira.
[From the Missouri Democrat. 4th.]
Five additional wason-loads of Union fami
lies exiled from the Southwest for the enme
of attachment to the American flag and their
country, arrived in the city at ten o clock yes
terday forenoon. By eleven they were boused
at the hotel for the homeless, at the City Hall.
The men were dispirited and harassed, the
■women and children pitifully way-worn and
delected. Many were sadly in want ot the
fiSt necessities of comfort at tins ngoroos
season. The condition of the suffering little
ones especially pleads for instant and gen
erous aid.
