WHAT SHALL WE Do WITH THEM Our be-
nevoleEt philosophers Of the Tribune are thirst
ing for the blood of the ships crew of the cap
tured rebel privateer Savannah. But this is q
very nice and delicate question. The rebels
hold number of Union men ss prisoners and
they are constantly picking up stragglers here
and there. Are these Union men to be sacri-
flcec in retaliation for the hasty execution Of
these rebel privateers? Or shall We rashly
challenge in the rule of rigid justice against
these prisoners as pirates, the fierce policy on
the part of the Davis privateers, of the imme-
oiate hanging of the Grew Of every Northern
merchant slip they may hereafter capture
No; the lives Of our own people are entitled to
some consideration. Let these piratical prjs-
oners be tried and condemned if you please,
and then held as hostages for the future
good behavior Of the enemy. Thus many inno-
cent Union men may be saved who would other
wise be murdered in retaliation.

dressed in the garb of a well-to-do
farmer-the other, youth OF about
five and twenty, who seemed to be
waiting for some one to como and meet
him. To this person the old man
presently addressed himself.
