Rebels.
WASHINGTON, August 10, 1862
a gentleman who was at Aiken's Land
ing on Thursday gives an interesting ac-
count Of the exchange Of prisoners at
that point Our vessels arrived there at
one in the afternoon, and in the course of
six hours delivered the three thousand
and thirteen rebel prisoners to Commits
sioner Robert Ould. The United States
prisoners had walked thirteen miles, and
were in an almost famished condition,
their food having been two small biscuits
each for the entire day. They had suf-
ferod extremely for want of water, and
it was only after the entreaty Of Mr..
Guild with the Colonel having charge of
them they were permitted in squads 10
quench their excessive thirst at a well.
Captain j. s. Stevenson, Of the marine
artillery, connected with our boats, dis
tributed food and otherwise relieved their
necessities, They remained over night
at the landing, Mr.. Aiken, the proprietor
Of the plantation, furnishing them with
straw on which 10 sleep. EARLY the next
day they were taken on board our trans
ports Mr. Guild acknowledged the rebel
prisoners had been better treated by the
United States authorities than our own
men at Richmond, and certainly the con
trsst between the two parties furnished
proof Of this fact.

ident has certainly put in the knife with
stout purpose, and if there has been any doubt
heretofore in the minds of the opponents of
emancipation, as to the cause of the rebellion,
they can 'see it" plainly enough now, if they
will look
The recent movements of the grand army
cause much apprehension all over the coun-
try In regard to the speedy success of our
arms; but we have no reason to fear any con-
siderable disaster, with a commander who
seems to possess in so eminent degree the
requisite qualities of fighting general as does
Gen. burnside. The worshippers of McClel-
Ian will, OF ofcourse, be ready enough to say that
they knew it would be so,' and will prophesy
evil in consequence of his removal.
But just now hear news confrinatory of
rumors which have been current for few
days past, of the resignation of Gen. Burn
side. This, if il proves true, will doubtless
dampen the ardor of our soldiers, and the pail
of gloomy uncertainty will again hang over
us for season. The world looks on amazed
at our stupendous war establishment, and won-
ders that, with our preponderating strength
and resources, the rebellion was not crushed
long ago. Bat few realize the immense and
determined hatred of the South for the Union
government. Its seeds were sown when the
first slave was imported in 1920. Strange CO.
incidence! Liberty and Slavery planted dur
ing the same year; and, after nearly two cen
turies and half, each with rcd hands upon
the others throat, struggling still for the mas
terry. Liberty will triumph. Slavery midst
bite the dust. 1t may be long before we wit
ness its last convulsive throe, but its heart is
pierced, ,'and with its downfall will tyranny the
world over receive a vital thrust Popular
sovereignty-not the kind advocated by char
latans and slavocrats-is to be the basis of
popular government; and no country can
long maintain an internal peace, when the
law and the administration thereof are con-
ducive to the oppression of the masses. It
never was so, and in the nature of things, it
is impossible to be.
