ALEXANDER II. STI',l'Hi:\s IN PI.ISON.

[I'rnm the ¡tostón Journal.]Not for three lonj; years has tho securo and BC-

i-«¡badet, fortress in Boston Harbor, known as FortWarron, been ho barren of Conícilcrato prisoners,Jn point of numbers, a» at the present turn«. Sincetho sudden and fatal explosion of tho SouthernConfederacy, and Uiemsi-ffeataiwearauceBOT loy-altv to the Union on the part of tlioso caged with-in ilH strong walls, tin« number of prisoners atl-'ort Warren ban rapidly diminished. ThroughUlO uniform lenity of UlO Government which th««yconspired to destroy, several hundred have beenreleased from the l-'ort within n lew weeks, aftergoiiif,' through the formality of holding up tharight hand and «wearing allegiance to the countrywhich forgives them the eriine of treason. Theoath which they subscribe to is tho ordinary oathof allegiance.Tho majority of the prisoner« confined in the

fort at the close of the war.several hundred innumber.quickly availed themselves of the oppor-tunity to subscribe to the oath of loyalty, andthus exchange their prison life for one of free-dom. This generous privilege was extended toall, with perhaps the exception of Vico-PrcsidcntStephens and Postmaster-General Reagan, of thelato Confederacy. They were offered the alterna-tive of being released upon condition of leavingtho country, never to return, or remain in prison,and take tho chances of pardon by tho Govern-ment. They made choice of the latter nrlvitae"to secure tlie liberty »men would be most agreea-ble to their tnstes, iind hence their detention untilthoir cases are acted upon.¿'rom the faet that Alexander IL Rtcphons wasthe Vicc-l'rcsident of tho Southern Confederacy,and, of course, one of the leading men in the se-cession government, there is a superior interestfelt in tho history of his prison life. His incarce-ration has not effected him to such a degree ashas the imprisonment of his associate traitor, Jeff.Davis, in 1« ortress Monroe. This faet may, per-haps, be attributed to two reasons, one of whichis that the confinement of Stephens is not so closeas Jcfl'.'s, and he does not regard his crime soenormous or its punishment so certain or so se-vere. When Stephens lirst arrived at Fort War-ron, he was kept in close confinement, which wore

greatly upon his physical constitution. Now hehas full liberty to go and como when und wheroho pleases about the fortress.always, of course,being kept within the inclosnrc. He spends muchof his time in walking about, and finds groat con-solation in smoking an elegant and cosily ineor-shiiuin pipe. One of the soldiers who bad seon itwhile on guard duty expressed the opinion that itwas worth about one hundred dollars. Stephen«!also sportH an elegant gold watch, which is thoenvy of all who have seen it.

It is well, perhaps, in speaking of the valuablespossessed by the prisoners when thoy are commit-ted to the Fort, to remark that they arc not takenfrom them.a fact in very decided contrast to thecruel and shameless robberies of the officers incommand of the rebel prisons in the South duringthe war. Stephens is inclined to bo 60eial anilcommunicative to all who como around him; andin his conversation upon the late war and its causeJic says ho is a good Union man, but also an earn-est advocate of ''Southern rights." He lias madeapplication for pardon, and has many Southernfriends constantly besieging the President in hisbehalf. Some three or four of these havo beenpermitted to visit him within a few weeks. Heoften expresses the wish that ho will soon eitherhave a trial or receive a pardon, hoping, of course,for the latter. Ho endeavors to keep well postedon affairs going on outside, if the presence of theJournal and other daily papers in bis quarters isany evidence. Stephens is not unmindful or un-

apprecialive of any little favors or attentionswhich are shown him, even by the juveniles. Alittle girl who recently sent hinia boiuiuet to adornhis lonely quarters, received his thanks and a tinegold dollar coin in return.Postmaster-General Jas. H. Reagan takes his

confinement in a manner equally as philosophicalas Stephens. He is awarded the same privilegesand kept under the same restraints. He is a muchyounger man, and probably not possessing the in-tellectual abilities of Stephens, the fact of his be-lüg a prisoner is not so mortifying to him. Hespends a great portion of his time in promenad-ing the grounds Inside the fort, and hko his fel-low-prisoner is inclined to bo sociable and talka-tive.The quarters of the prisonci's are below the level

of the ground, a distance perhaps of about eightfeet. They are, of course, provided with separateapartments, and each is furnished comfortably,lieing below the surface of the earth, some damp»ncs8 is inevitable, and to counteract its effectstoves are provided, in which tires are built when-ever the prisoners de-sire it.There are only three other prisoners confined in

Fort Warron besides Stephens and lloagan. Twoof them are blockade runners, who refused to takethe oath of allegiance, and the other is CharlesCheshire, formerly one of the Supervisors ofBrooklyn, N. Y., who is in close confinement forjfrauds perpetrated in recruiting.

MeRBi-fl. Fisher A Haakcll, Cotton Planters nt Newbem. N. C, write, July, 18f<5. as follows:The Phosphate of Lime we purchuscd of you gives good satisfaction. Last year wc applied fifty-five (55) tons to

three hundred ¡iud seventy-five (37fi) acres of land for cotton, say about (¡WO) three hundred pounds per acre. We rub-bod the seed in the PhoHphate, and also sowed it in the drill with tho seed at the time of planting. Ou u portion ofthe land we applied a top dressing of the Lime at the second hoeing. Throughout tlie season the cotton pluuts grewwell.the leaves were of a dark, healthy color, and no hust " was seen on the plantation. The ravages of thearmy worm prevented us from realizing tho benefit from our outlay for the Lime in full, still the large number olpartly grown bolls and forms gave some idea of what tho crop would have betii could they have matured. Al-though we saved a large quantity of manure ou the place lust year, our confidence hi the value of your Phosphateled us to purchase of you last spring seventy tons, one-half of which we used ourselves, and the balance wasbought for a friend, who was satisfied of its worth in cotton culture. At the time of writing this, our crop Is look-ing finely, and promises an abundant yield. One portion of our plantation consists of highlands with a clay sub-soil, running near the surface; the remainder is Mat and inclined to be sandy. The owner of the place tells us thathe did net succeed with cotton on this last purt; but owing, as we think, to the liberal use of your Phosphate, wehave now a good crop growing upon it. This is but the second season of cotton growing with us; still, from our

experience thus far, we do not hesitate to recommend your Phosphate of Lime as a manure well adapted to thewants of the cotton planter."

Newbeiiby, S. C, October, I860.FrofeAsor J. 3. Mapes.Dear Sir: I bought twenty bags of your Nltrogentzed Superphosphate of Lime, of

your Agents, Messrs. H. k N. E. Solomon, Hamburg, S. C. (who solicited a stiuuicut of its effects), and applied itto forty acron of my poorest cotton land.

This land is on the public road, where its effects were seen. My neighbors, ho are acquainted with the land,were astonished at the luxuriant growth of the cotton where I used your Superphosphate. It produced better cot-ton, and a larger amount, than on my good laud ; less work was needed in making the cotton than on my otherland. A'ot apartide of rust was to be seen where 1 applied your Superphosphate, while the rust prevailed over

overy other portion of the crop.Respectfully yours, DAVID PAYNE.

Note..Mr. Payne's good land compares favorably with the best cotton lands on the Saluda River. The Saludabottoms are proverbial for producing largo quantities of cotton.

COTTON.Columbia, S. C, October 16,1859.

Mr. J. J. Mapea.Dear Sir: In reply to yours of tlie 1st inst, I cheerfuUy state: I have used Mapes' Nitro-genized Superphosphate of Lime on my cotton of the present year, and am perfectly satisfied with it« yield.

I can recommend it to my neighbors with confidence, as a pure and effective manure, and would give (1 thepreference to any other in the market.

Yours, respectfully, TH08. DAVI8.

Mr. Charles W. Mixon, of Edenton, Chowan County, N. C, writes to Mr. Bockover:In regard to Mapes' Phosphate it worked admirably for me, tho product being fully equal if not superior to

both the manures before mentioned. It did not start the young plant as early as either the other manures; but itseemed to retain it« color and pods much better, ami no symptom of rust was ever seen where it was applied.allthe land I planted in cotton being about the same quality and strength. CHARUES W. MIXON.

Extract from a letter from Colonel Gideon Dowse, of Berzclla, near Augusta, Ga.. August, 18fl0:J. J. Mapes_Dear Sir: 1 have no hesitation in saying that on my own farm your Superphosphate has be«n,

_n_MJaU!!S^ £A2___fi WL.?_- l-v? *PPuciU1_°a,nVy'_>pî_ion the onfy'ínie wkyloTest Vt^i?£«;,SS__to one in the niU-bcFoi 'growïî Coïfi, and ae ten to one In the young fruit and forms, in favor of the Superphos-phate.

This opinion la formed from a close and critical examination by my overseer and myself. There is one resultfrom its application, which, if it had nothing else to recommend it, is of incalculable value, and that is, it doesseem to guard againsVthat worst enemy of the cotton plant, namely, the rust.

I havo applied it to land that Invariably rusta cotton, and there la as yet not a sign of rust In it, while the samekind of land Just adjoining is completely ruined by it already.

This experiment confirma that made by Mr. Lomas, of S. C, last year; "and I am fully persuaded that any plantmanured with it does withstand a drought better and keeps green longer than with any other application that hascome under my notice. I have seen cotton, corn, okra, melons and other garden plants, that have kept greenduring tho terrible drought that has so completely destroyed all our gardens, and my nutmeg melons are us greenand blooming as beautifully as in spring.

I havo written this as the result of my judgment from close observation. When I shall have gathered my cropsit will give mo pleasure to give you the result from actual weight and measure.

Yours, GIDEON D0W8E.

Extract from Weekly Day-Book: I »New Yohk, October 29, 1859."We have, in the course of an extensive agricultural correspondence, gathered evidence of the superior value

of Mapes' Nitrogenizod Superphosphate of Lime upon the cotton fields of the South, where Peruvian Guano hadbeen used with partial success. The bolls have been heavier, and of greater number, the yield of cotton per acre, hnsbeen larger, and what ia also of the greatest consequence, no rust is discovered In cotton fields where this article isapplied, to which may be added its peculiar lasting power of fertilisation, and its comparative cheapness. Thesefacts havo come to us in correspondence from parties who have used other like agents, aud who give this by fur thehighest praise.

"Wo have arrived at the conclusion, after considerable experiment ourselves, and of careful search for the re-sulta of the trials of others, that Mapes' Fertilizer has more of the property needed lu a general manure, in horticul-ture and agricultura, than any thing else of the kind we are acquainted with."

Eihie.-ikt.ti. 8. C, October 10, lgftO.3. 3. Mapes, Esq., Now York.Dear Sir: I bought four ton« of your Rupcrphosphatc of Lime for my cotton

crop, also some guano, and have tried them side by side on the name quality of land. S'ot a particle of rust was tobe Been where your Superphosphate waa used ; and I also applied stable manure on a portion of my land. Tliecotton had the rust when the latter was used. The yield of cotton was splendid wlvjn the Superphosphate wasused, despite tho extraordinary dry year. When I applied tho other manure the yl?ld was not good.I applied the Superphosphate at tha rate of 100 lbs. per aero, aud believe it would have paid better if I had putmore per acre.

I sold my cotton in Hamburg yesterday at « _. per pound over tho usual market price. The lint was consid-ered very strong aud heavy. I consider yours a reliable manure.
