THE Exchange of Prisoners.

The condition of the Union prisoners at
the South not only justifies the determine.
ton of the Government to effect an ex-
change, but urges the exchange to be ac-
complished with all possible speed. The
misery of these men is represented as e1-
treme. Provided by their jailers with no
better food than is fed, in periods of scarci
ty, to the slaves; half covered only with the
tattered garments they took with them from
the battle field; aud, worse than all, held in
condition of enforced idleness and vacancy
at the time when men of energetic temper
ment are eager for action and the duties OF
the field they realize punishment as pitt
less as can well be inflicted by one huffman
being upon another The prisoners detained
at the North fare far less cruelty. They are
certainly exposed to the rigors OF climate
to which they have never been used: but the
Government has supplied them with abund
! ant food; their sick have been looked after
with the utmost tenderness; charity bas fur
nished clothing and variety of eontribu-
tions to comfort; and they have been ex-
posed to none of that official harshness, and
popular contumely, which have added SO
greatly to the misery of our brave fellows IN
| Richmond and Charleston. The argument
for the exchange is all in favor of the North
and the more rapidly it is urged, the more
important the discount from sufferings of its
imprisoned soldiers. The only fear is that
the practice of releasing rebel prisoners up
on their repeating the oath of allegiance
will leave us short Of material for the re.
demption of ali our unfortunates.-N y

The Black Flag.

The Memphis Avalanche advocates the
"Black Flag" idea in the following fero-
cious language:
We unhesitatingly say that the cause
of Justice, that the cause of humanity it's
elf demands that the black flag shall be
unfurled on every field-,hat extermina.
ton and death shall be proclaimed against
the hellish miscreants who persist in pol
luting our soil with their crimes. We will
stop the effusion Of blood, we will arrest
the horrors of war. by terrific slaughter
of the foe, by examples OF overwhelming
and unsparing vengeance.--When Oliver
Cromwell massacred the garrison OF Dro
gheda, suffering not man to escape, he
justified if ON the ground that his objec
was to bring the war to a close--to stop
the effusio1 of blood--and that it was
therefore. a mecriful act on his part. The
South can afford no longer to trlfe--she
must strike the most fearful blows--the
war-cry of determination must be raised

ANTIc1PATtoN.-E Expectation in weak
mind, makes an evil greater, and a good
less. But in resolved mind it digests
an evil before it comes, and makes fu-
ture good lorg before present. We mus:
expect the worst because it may come !;
the best, because know it will come.

IGNoRANcE.-Never be ashamed to
confess your ignorance, for the wisest man
on earth is ignorant of many things, in
asmuch that wha. he knows is mere
nothing is comparison with what he does
not know. There can be no greater folly
in the world that to suppose that we
know everything.

All quiet along the Potomac, to night,
Where the soldiers lie peacefully dreaming
Their tents in the rays of the clear autumn mool
Or the light of the watch fires are cleaning.
A tremulous sign, as the gentle night wind,
Through the forest-leaves softly is creeping !;
While stars ap above, with their glittering eyes,
Keep guard-for the army is sleeping.
There's only the sound tf the lone sentr tread
AS he tramps from the rock to the fountain
And thinks of the two in the low trundle- bed,
F'r away in the cot on the mountain
His musket falls slack-bs face, dark aud grim,
Grows gentle with memories tender,
AS he mntters prayer for the children asleep
For their mother-may heaven defend her,
The moon seems to shine just at brightly as then
That night when the love yet unspoken
Leaped up to his lips-when low murmured vow
Were pledged-to be ever unbroken.
Then, drawing his sleeve roughly over his eyes,
He dashes off tears that are yelling,
And gathers his gun closer up to it's place,
AS if to keep down the heart rt-sweling.
He passes the fountain, the blasted pine tree,
The footstep is tagging and weary
Yet onward he goes thro' the broad belt of light,
7 oward the shade of the forest so drea,y.
Hark was it the night wind rustled the leaves ?
Was it moonlight SO wondroulsy tiashing7
1t looked like a rife-"Ha Mary, good bye !
And the life blood is ebbing and plashings
All quiet along the Potomac tonight,
No sound save the rush of the river;
While soft falls the dew on the face of the dead
The picket's off duty forever.

THE LTLL-HELDERHAND CASE
A1cum ent to D1Gtlarge the Bail.

Tie well known case Of Hildebrand cs Lii
assumed 4 new phase in the commencement
OF an argument by Mr.. Lii = counsel, ycster-
day, before His Honor Judge Manierfe, to dis
charge the bail which our readers will re-
member was fixed at the large sum Of $50, 900.
Tie csse was called yesterday afternoon and
AIR. Martin, counsel for defence, moved to
discharge the bail and set aside the order to
hold the bail At the same time Mr. Kaiser,
counsel for plaintiff, made CROSS motion to
strike Mr. Luis affidavit from the file.
Mr. Martin suggested that both motions
could be disposed Of at one time, and after
1nttnat:ng to The Court that his associate,
MI. van Arman, wished to be heard in the
morning, proceeded with his argument.
Ihe counsel said that the bail Of his client
had been fixed at q very heavy sum, and 1t was
therefore due to him that his questions should
be fully and carefully examined. The grounds
set forth for the discharge we're as follows:
1st. The plaintiffs affidavit does not show
sufficient cause for arrest. 2d. The bail was
liked and ordered by a deputy clerk only. Sd.
1ne cause Of action and arrest in the afIida.
