1t will be seen by OUT news columns, tha'
the Lincoln government is re:roat'ng from us
position in regard to prisoners, and Is now
seeking All exchange. Not, indeed, IN .ha'
frank, honorable manner in which 1t sne"'u DC
sought, but covcrtly and Indirectly. 1t Is
strange that Lincoln and his Cabinet DO not Fec
how thew thus expose themselves TO r'dicule,
and increase tho shame which they seek to
bid.s They virtually tell the world that "ine'f
rovcrty and not their will conscnlS"--!ha !.
;s an exceedingly bitter pill they nave TO ;ate,
but that necessity eompel$ them 20 il.
Among the prisoners whom Lhey thus pro
pose to exchange, are five resigned Us M
val officers, whom they arrested in Boston, a.
the moment Of resignlpg. Prisoners Mm cap
tured, they ask US, in the deaf snd dumb ala
lect, TO exchange for men taken on such fc'us
as Manassas and Belmont snd Lcesbnrg! The
proposition disgraces them.

necessary were suspended, and religious services

posures Of the past week, enjoyed day Of calm
repose.
The present position Of the army is perhaps the
hest that could be selected in this section Of The State
for a resting place. Water is abnudantly supplied
by the Seneca, Muddy Creek, and their thbuianesi

rsde and camping grounds, as well as fuel for warm
/ ing and culinary purposes.
Yesterday was spent in arranging the positions Of

each other. TIE supply train will remain for the

sbowed the necessity of a corps of saPpers and
miners to be permanently attached 70 this oVision
