PRISONERS BROKE jAIL.-8bout sun- down Oil Saturday evening last, Matthias Offer and John Bickerstafi, who were con fined in the Phillips County Jail, under charge of high crimes, got the advantage of Mir. Garretson, the guard, and threw him into the dungeon, and then escaped from the Jail. The Sheriff immediately made every effort h his power to arrest them, and summoned persons to pursue them in every direction, but las not yet got the least intel- hgenee of the route they have taken.- They took with them two double-barreled shot guns, two pistols, and their clothes.- They were very heavily ironed; but 1t seems that by over sight, razor belonging to Oiler, was Jeff some place within their reach, and was used III some way, to cut the iron off one leg, in which condition they left the jail, depending upon the chance of escape to moro favorable place 10 complete the breaking of their irons. BIr. Garretson has entirely recovered from the slight nlu- " he received from being preciptated into the dungeon.--EIaoId.

 On Sunday morning last, all persons able to gos We're satf3h0HeQ 10 continue Inc fuf- ther pursuit of the prisoners oth- CTS that went was Goodridge, who had tue reneounter with Smith, noticed few weeks since. On Sunday evening he did not re- turn--on Monday evening he was still mis- slng, and much alarm was exeited--4ues- day morning came, and no GoodFidge. It was then determined that search should be made. The people turned out ge- nerally, and about nine o'clock found Goodridge dead, about one mile and a half from town, and one of the most shocking pictures of human corruption we ever beheld. There was not thread of bis clothes but what were burnt to ashes, and the body literally roasted. We are un- able to give the particulars of the position of the body, &c. He had with him dou- b!e-barreled shot gun, one barrel of which was discharged. An inquest was held over him, and the conclusion Of the jury was, that he had come to his death by lis own hand, either by design or accident; but which no one can conjecture.-I6id.
