From Fort Delaware.
Mr. Richard Frazier, who was captured by the Federal cavalry at the residence of Mr. Apperson, in New Kent county, on the 6th of July, reached this city last night from Fort Delaware. He came up the river yesterday with all the released Confederate prisoners from Fort Delaware, some four thousand in number, and landed at Aiken's about 5 o'clock in the afternoon.After his capture he was taken to Williamsburg, where he remained for a week, when he was sent down to the Rip Raps, and from thence to Fort Delaware, where he was confined until the 30th of July. The second day after his arrival at the fort a number of prisoners were drawn up in line and a demand made for their money, the information being conveyed to them that $15 only would be allowed each prisoner. The next day the thing was repeated, and the amount allowed reduced to $5. In this way a large amount was taken from the prisoners, none of which was ever returned. Their watches were also taken and not restored.
During the imprisonment at Fort Delaware, Messrs. Hitchcock and Davies, of the Dinwiddie cavalry, who were taken prisoners at Malvern Hill, died, the former quite suddenly. Mr. F. says that the labor of the prisoners at the fort was very heavy, and the fare very rough and exceedingly scant.
