mong the number of Yankee officers confined therein two Captains, who are to be put to hard labor, with ball and chain, till the end of the war, in retaliation for similar treatment which is now being inflicted upon Captains William Waller and Shultz Leach, by order of Gen. Burnside.--These brave officers are Kentuckians, and it is alleged were recruiting in that State for the Confederate army. They were captured at Maysville, Ky., last summer, and under Burnside's order (No. 38) were tried andd to hard labor during the war, with ball and chain attached to their legs. Yesterday the Secretary's order was carried out, which resulted in the selection of Capt. B. C. G. Reed, of the 3d Ohio cavalry, and Capt. R. O. Ives, of the 10th Massachusetts infantry, who will receive the same treatment as that which is now being inflicted upon Capts. Waller and Leach. These Yankee officers will leave Richmond this morning for Salisbury, N. C., which is to be the field of their future operations.
