"" Savannah Republican, June 24, 1863, p. 1, c. 2 - A Celestial Among Us.—Among the prisoners received at the Libby recently is Ching-Chang, or, in English, China Hague, a member of the Second Louisiana (Yankee) regiment, taken near Port Hudson.

As the Libby is overrun with them, Chang anticipates a good time. ""
