THE VAN DlEMEN's LAND PRIsoNERs.-W this
day publish an interesting letter from two citizens
of this State who have just returned from captivity
in Van Diemen's Land, conveying much useful
information relative to about eighty of their COM
rades yet detained in that penal settlement One
of them wright was for some time confined
along with the celebrated Welsh leader, Mr..
Frost, ex.Mayor of Newport. He told our In
fermant that he had several times seen his COM
rade (Dresser) so worn out with his task that he
lay down and begged the overseer to leave him
there to die. Men without religious scruples
frequently commit offences, punishable with death
in that country, that their miseries may be thus
terminated, Dresser is still in town. Wrights
brother arrived on Sunday from Lewis Co., and
he has accompanied him to the home of his aged
parents who never expected again to see their
long lost boy under the paternal roof.
