# Southern Historical Society Papers/Volume 04/July/Confederate Loss at Seven Pines—Letter from Gen. J. E. Johnston

Southern Historical Society Papers, July 1877
The Confederate Loss at Seven Pines.—Letter from General J. E. Johnston.
[We take pleasure in publishing the following letter from General Johnston, which explains itself, as we are always ready to make explanations or corrections of any thing that we may put into our Papers.]
Richmond, June 22d, 1877.
Rev. J. Wm. Jones, D. D., Secretary Southern Historical Society:
Dear Sir: Major-General Longstreet's report of the battle of Seven Pines, as published in your Society's Papers—May and June, 1877—differs materially from his official report made to me, the commander of the Confederate army on that occasion.
The difference is in the interpolation of a "list of killed, wounded, and missing" in the paper you published. No such list was in the official report. General Longstreet's statement of his loss is in the sentence of his report next to the last, viz: "A rough estimate of the loss on this part of the field may be put down at 3,000 killed and wounded." This "estimate" was after he had received the report of his chief surgeon, Dr. J. S. D. Cullen.—See 3d paragraph from the end of the report.
It is not to be supposed that General Longstreet would have written in the same report, and in such juxtaposition, that his loss was about 3,000, and that it was 4,851.
Most respectfully, your obedient servant,
J. E. Johnston.
[It is due to ourselves to say, in reference to the above, that we printed General Longstreet's report from a verbatim copy of the one recorded in the letter book kept at his own headquarters, and that we, of course, had no reason to suspect that it was in any particular different from the original report sent to General Johnston.]
# Southern Historical Society Papers/Volume 01/April/Prison Rules at Fort Delaware

Southern Historical Society Papers, April 1876
​Dr. Handy has preserved in his letter-book an original copy of
PRISON RULES AT FORT DELAWARE,
which we give in full:
Headquarters Fort Delaware, July 8th, 1864.
I. Roll call at reveille and retreat.  II. Police call at 7 A. M. and 4 P. M.  III. Breakfast call at 8 A. M.; dinner, 2 P. M.  IV. Sergeants in charge of the prisoners will exact from them a strict compliance with the above calls, which will be regularly enforced, and must promptly report to the officer in charge, the number present and absent, sick, etc.; and any who are guilty of insubordination, or any violation of the rules of this prison. They must also notify their men that if they do not promptly obey any order given them by a sentinel, officer, or men in charge of them, they will be shot.  V. Sergeants in charge will be held responsible for the due execution of these rules, and for the regular accounting for the number of their men.
By command A. Schœpf, Brigadier-General.
(Signed)George W. Ahl, Captain and A. A. A. G.
# Southern Historical Society Papers/Volume 01/April/Mr. Blaine's description of Northern Prisons

Southern Historical Society Papers, April 1876
SOUTHERN HISTORICAL SOCIETY PAPERS.
THE TREATMENT OF PRISONERS DURING THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES.
[Compiled by the Secretary of the Southern Historical Society.]
We stated in our last issue that we should resume this subject in this number. But instead of finishing at this point the discussion of the Exchange question, we will first dispose of
THE TREATMENT OF CONFEDERATE PRISONERS BY THE FEDERAL AUTHORITIES.
The ex parte reports of the Federal Congress, the reports of the United States officials, the reports of the Sanitary Commission, various books that partisan writers at the North have published, and the Radical press generally, have represented that while the Confederate authorities deliberately, willfully, and persistently, starved, tortured, and murdered Union prisoners, the Federal authorities always treated their captives in the most considerate and humane manner. Indeed the impression sought to be made is that Confederates fared so much better in Federal prisons than they did in the Confederate army, that their capture was really a blessing to them—that they came to prison emaciated skeletons, and were sent back (except those who "died of diseases they brought with them") sleek, hale, healthy men.
We might quote largely on this point from the writings alluded to, but we will only give an extract from the speech of Hon. James G. Blaine, uttered deliberately on the floor of the United States House of Representatives eleven years after the close of the war:
​"Mr. Cook.Thousands of them say it—thousands of them; men of as high character as any in this House.
"Mr. Blaine. I take issue upon that. There is not one who can substantiate it—not one. As for measures of retaliation, although goaded by this terrific treatment of our friends imprisoned by Mr. Davis, the Congress of the United States specifically refused to pass a resolution of retaliation, as contrary to modern civilization and the first precepts of Christianity. And there was no retaliation attempted or justified. It was refused; and Mr. Davis knew it was refused just as well as I knew it or any other man, because what took place in Washington or what took place in Richmond was known on either side of the line within a day or two thereafter."}}
# Southern Historical Society Papers/Volume 01/April/How the Federals Refused to Exchange

Southern Historical Society Papers, April 1876
​Unfortunately, the capture of Vicksburg and Port Hudson, and the captures at Gettysburg, now gave the Federal Government a large excess of prisoners actually in hand, and enabled them to carry out the policy which they had all along evidently preferred. Instead of fulfilling the terms of the cartel, they cooly notified Judge Ould that henceforth "exchanges will be confined to such equivalents as are held in confinement on either side" The plain meaning of this was that the Federal Government treated as a nulity the terms of the cartel, and the large number of paroles which the Confederates held against them, and proposed to exchange man for man of those actually in prison, which would have released every single prisoner held by the Confederacy, and left some thousands of our own brave soldiers to languish and die in hopeless captivity, notwithstanding the fact that the Confederates (carrying out the terms of the cartel) had already paroled their equivalents of Federal soldiers. The Confederate Commissioner, of course, indignantly rejected this proposition, and the subsequent correspondence until August 10th, 1864, abounds in earnest efforts on the part of Judge Ould to induce the Federal authorities to return to the cartel, and their quibbles, excuses, and evasions. We very much regret that we have not space to publish this correspondence in full. Indeed we could desire no better vindication of the Confederacy than the publication of every letter which passed between the commissioners. Our cause suffered nothing in the hands of our able and high-minded commissioner, Judge Ould.
On the 10th of August, 1864, seeing the hopelessness of effecting further exchanges on any fair terms, Judge Ould wrote the letter (which we gave in our last number), proposing to accept the terms offered by the other side, and to exchange man for man of actual captives.
Notwithstanding the fact that this was their own proposition, and would have worked largely in their favor as it ignored the thousands of paroles held by the Confederates and would have released all Federal prisoners and have left a large number of Confederates in captivity, the Federal authorities never deigned to give an answer ​to this letter. They would neither carry out the terms of the parole, nor abide by their own proposition when it was accepted.
There were various complications which arose during the suspension of the cartel, but the plain meaning of them all was that the Federal Government had deliberately adopted as their war policy the non-exchange of prisoners.
We will briefly notice several of these complications.

4. The Plain Top Feature will be made of the soft bust section material regularly used in the Basic Design, unless otherwise specified. If this feature is desired in another material indicate it plainly on the Order Form.
5. When ordering changes from Catalogue measurements or construction indicate the changes required in the spaces provided on the Order Form. A list of the usual changes which may be made in brassieres is given in the Price List.

##### IMPORTANT POINTS TO BE KEPT IN MIND

The 2323, 2961 and 2834 Series
6. The comparatively long length in these garments from waist to top at over bust with the shorter measurement at centre front is necessary to preserve the function of the design. In deciding on the correct waist to top (over bust) measurement for your client's needs take into consideration the relative heights of the garment at centre front and under arm. The long waist to top measurement can be worn in these designs because of the shaped line around the top.
7. The under bust measurement can not be specialized.

The design is so shaped and boned in the back as to control shoulder and under arm flesh and give a pleasing waist line. Through the action of the lacing and the elastic inserts this garment serves as a comfortable diaphragm reducer.
