How nre we 90 Get Back Our Prison
eFsF

The rebels captured and still hold, probably,
500 men as prisoners at the Bulls Run affair.
How are they to be released In no way at
present but by exchange. But, although we
have captured great number Of rebels since
the commencement of hostlities, we have let
them ali 90 again with the exception of u few
officers and spies. We hardly hold man Of
the rank and file We administer the oath of
allegiance and turn them loose to swell again
the ranks Of the enemy. 1t Is no offence what
ever to be fund in arms against the United
States. Gen. McClellan's command captured
nearly 1000 men, who were permitted to go'on
taking the everlasting oath. Had they been
detained they would have been the means OF re-
leasing every soldier captured IN the late hight.
They would have been so much capital on hand
TO be offset against revere OF our own. Now,
before We can get back our lost men, we must
make new haul.
We cannot understand this mode of proceed
ing. If we are not to infict upon traitors the
penalty due to treason, why not, for time, at
least, place them on their probation, and put
them in a position in which they can do no
harm? To administer an oath to a man found
in arms, and who may, the moment previous,
have taken the life of loyal citizen or soldier,
is one of the greatest farces ever enacted. What
do such villains care for an oath? AS they
| have already committed moral perjury, we only
deceive ourselves by supposing that they will
respect any public declaration of their loyalty
Perhaps our defeats may gradually cure us o.
many delusons which have rendered this wal
an anomaly and an excep ion in the history Of
military operations.-Neao York Times

Nobody 20 Blame.

We regret to see that several of our cotem.
poraries continue the discussion of the causes
OF the Bulls Run disaster. Let US eschew all
such discussions for the present by agreeing that
the attack was well planned and well Directed
that Gen. Paterson was just where he should
nave been that the commander in the field
was capable and effective-that all the officers
were as competent as the men were brave-thai
the order to retreat was properly given and
properly supported. and that mob ody failed OF

certain to De right next time. That is the best
way 10 put the case for the present; the future
