d presented to Gen. Sherman at his Headquarters. Gen. Sherman confessed that he did not know what disposition to make of her case, but concluded to send her to Washington and have the matter disposed of there. On the way she was again subjected to the insolence of this fellow Blygh, who, at every station, took occasion to make some reference to her in terms calculated to give pain. On her arrival in Washington she was imprisoned in the house of Mrs. Greenhow, and in a room adjoining that occupied by this lady, where she remained up to the time of her release. While a prisoner, Miss Poole underwent very many privations — being under the strict and cont in the manner related by us above. It is also said in this letter that Miss Poole, when arrested the second time, had on her person seven thousand five hundred dollars of unexpended money furnished her by the rebels. This is also false, as is likewise the statement that on her arrival in Washington she was placed in jail.

She made her escape through the back entrance just as the guard appeared in front of the house, and proceeded to another place of refuge, from which she was again hunted. This was repeated four times, but at length she eluded them and went forty miles in a skiff, down the Ohio River, to Martinsville. Here she took passage in a packet to Parkersburg, and again from Parkersburg to Cincinnati. From Cincinnati she proceeded to Louisville, during which journey she had the escort of a Federal officer, who, not being aware of the position she occupied, talked rather freely to her about the affairs of the Government.

On account of indknowledgment is made. In the letter to the Philadelphia Press, alluded to in the outset of this article, Miss Poole is said to have escaped from the prison at Wheeling by means of tying her sheets together and letting herself down from the window. The only prison in which she was confined at Wheeling was her own home, and the Wheeling was her own home, and the manner in which she escaped therefrom was not by lowering herself from the window, but in the manner related by us above. It is also said in this letter that Miss Poole, when arrested the second time, had on her person seven thousand five hundred dollars of unexpended money furnished her by the rebels. This is also false, as i

Adventures of a Rebel Heroine. Norfolk, Va., Jan. 22.--Miss Poole arrived here last evening in the flag of truce steamer, and we had the pleasure of an interview with her. She is an intelligent and pleasing lady, and withal possesses a fervor of patriotism which no tortures of the enemy could dampen. Our conversation with her convinces us that she is a true Virginia lady, and we congratulate her upon her escape from the thraldom of Lincolndom and her restoration to Southern soil and society. Miss Poole was arrested in Wheeling on the twenty-eighth of September last, by order of the Secretary of State, charged with conducting a correspondence with the Southern rebels. On account of indisposition she was not removed from her home, but was allowed to remain in her room — a guard being placed at the door of the same, and also a guard on the outside of the building. The door of her chamber was securely locked, and the key taken by the officer of the guard. Previously, however, t

Sherman expressly for the purpose of effecting her arrest. She escaped his vigilance as she thought on this occasion, left Louisville and proceeded to Mitchell, in Indiana.

fecting her arrest. She escaped his vigilance as she thought on this occasion, left Louisville and proceeded to Mitchell, in Indiana. To her surprise she found him in the same train with herself — apparently unconcerned, yet closely watching her movements, in order to obtain some clue which would justify her arrest. He was not aware that she knew him, but he was mistaken, as she had accidentally learned who he was, and was watching him as closely as he was her. From Mitchell she went to Vincennes, where she was finally arrested by this hound Blygh. His behavior toward her after her arrest was coarse and rude — just such as might be expected of a Lincoln detective. He took great delight in alluding to her as she passed a crowd on the street as a secesh prisoner, and in various ways endeavored to offend the refined and delicate creature, whom the authority of a base miscreant had made his captive. Her baggage was all searched by this fellow, with the hope that he would find some
