LETTER FROM A PRISONER - From a private letter written by Corporal Charles B. Rice of Company C, 2nd Vermont Regiment, and dated at Richmond, Va., Nov. 11th, we learn that Private Edward P. Gilson of the same company, died at the General Hospital at Richmond, Oct. 12. He had been sick a long time with dysentery and was a very low spirited which helped to shorten his days.
