Arrangements to Welcome the Boston, April 27.—A Manchester, N. H., special to The Evening Herald says that the family of Gen. Roger A. Pryor are taking steps toward clearing his name from the charge of cowardice brought by the southern press because of his recent speech on the southern question. The papers accused him of being a lukewarm supporter of the Confederat • government, and argued that he was a |joor fighter from the fact that he was capturod and sent north. Thursday the general's son, Roger A. Pryor, Jr., was in Manchester to see Capt H. O. Dudley, the man who captured his father. Capt. Dudley said that in Nov mber, 1804, Capt. Burrage, of the Thirty-sixth Massachusetts regiment, while engaged in a contraband trade in newspaper, tobacco, etc., which was going on between the picket lines, was captured by two Confed rate officers, and that Gen. Parke, of the Ninth corp*, requested his officers to capture some Confederates in retaliation. Accordingly Dudley, on meeting Gen. Pryor between the lines trying to exchange newspapers, covered him with a revolver and marched him into camp uader threat of instant death if he attempted to resist On reaching Capt Dudley's post Gen. Pryor drew a revolver and tried to shoot Dudley, but was disarmed by Capt. Hussey, of the Thirty-second Maine, who with ten men occupied the post Charge of Cowardice. Col.
