Disclosures at the Passport Office — arrest of the Chief of Passport.
--Some two weeks ago we mentioned the arrest of some parties endeavoring to make their way through our lines to the North, who had obtained what were then regarded as bogus passports. Being brought back to this city, they implicated two men named Head and Wolfe, from whom they stated they had procured the passes.--Head is the keeper of a livery stable and furnished transportation facilities as far as the Potomac, in the neighborhood of which they were arrested. On the information of these parties Head and Wolfe were both arrested and lodged in Castle Thunder, where they remained until Friday last. On that day Head sent a note to Capt. McCubbin, Chief of Detectives, in which he stated that he desired to furnish information as to the means by which he came in possession of the passports. Being taken before Gen. Winder be made oath that he got them from Lt. S. O. Kirk, Chief of the Passport Office, and that he paid that officer over $200 for them. On the strength of this statement Lt. K. was arrested on Saturday, but paroled until this morning, when a further hearing of the case will be had at Gen. Winder's office.
