Sent Away. – One hundred and one men heretofore confined in Castle Thunder on the charge of desertion, were sent to Winchester, Va., yesterday, in charge of Lieut. McCauley and a guard of 20 men. For the privilege of running away from their companies, getting caught, and being locked up in prison, each will have to sacrifice three months pay.
