THE BALANCE SHEET OF PRIsoNERs--The
Federal authorities have recently made ar
engagements for the exchange of all prisoners o!
war ~lth the rebels. By the details of this ar
ra,gement it now appears, that the boasts Of
he rebels of the immense number of prisoners
they have taken from US, prove to be fable,
and the account now stands in our favor by
about six thousand privates, and six hundred
and seventy officers.
Thus though at Harpers Ferry and on some
other occasions we have los more than the en-
envy, and thus given him occasion for his boasts
it appears that on the whole, and taking the
West with the East, the advantage is largely
with US. A contemporary pertinently remarks ::
What is true of the prisoners is equally true
of the general results of the war The rebels
may Lave gained some slight advantages in the
East. but their blows have been returned with
heavy interest in the West and our losses on
the peninsula have been made up by the snc-
cesses OF the armies under Rosencrans. Grant
Schofield, Curtis, Mitchell, Morgan, some others.
The average of success like the surplus of pris
oners held, is on our side.

Programme of The New York Tories

The IrjOlt7le has the following
editoriaIly: eve are creeibly inform
ed that clandestine negotiations have
been obened between certain DemO>
cratic leaders in this city and the head
traitors at Richmond looking to re
construction on the following basis:
The States now in rebellion are to
elect members Of the present Con
gress, who are to present themselves
at Washington, and claim seats in
said Congress on or before the LIST day
of January next: Second, the House
being so filed, will at once have a
conioint conservative and rebel ma
iority. who will proceed to notify the
president that the rebellion is substan-
TALLY ended, that the rebel States are
all duly represented in the House; that
consequently his proclamation of frees
dom is null and void, and they are
fully under the protection of the con-
stitution; Third, Congress thus re-
constructed, is to proceed forthwith to
repeal all acts bearing hard on the
traitors of the last two years, and to
pass such others as may be necessary
to secure perfect, immunity and impu-
nifty to them. Fourth, convention
of the States is to be called, whenever
the united conservative, Democratic
and rebel strength is enough to be
overwhelming, and is to be pledged
beforehand to make whatever changes
in the constitution the slaveholding in
terests may deem essential to their
own future security, and permanent
well-being. These are in substance
the conditions forwarded from this city
to Richmond by the first envoy, but
we do not learn that they were accep,
ted. On the contrary we understand
they were not-the rebel chiefs still
insisting ON disunion as the basis for
peace, thus absolutely closing the door
against further negotiations, and ac>
cording to our informant, a second
embassy from our cOnse Is now
in Richmond, or is well on its way
thither. Hence we may expect to
hear further within few days.
The Ozdukee County Riot Con-
aen7ned at Honae-We extract the
following from the OEaukee Advertiser
and Democrat. 1t is a paragraph
from an editorial describing the late
draft riot:
We should be happy five could III
any way paIliate or offer some excuse
for the outrages committed, as mum
Der of those implicated are our neigh
bors and even personal friends. We
can only call it frenzy or temporary
insanity, and we hope that the most
ignorant man of that crowd will look
back with shame and modification on
the scene. What the punishment
melted out to those found guilty will
be we are unable to say at present.
We doubt not that the editor simply
represents the feelings of a majority of
the intelligent citizens of his county
both German and English.

GuriOus Advice.

A Democratic paper, called the Adoertiser &
ended account of the draft riot i'll that place
detailing the savage conduct of the mob, in
destroying large amounts of property, and bru>
tally treating peaceable citizens. According
to the 4 doertiSer s. Democrat the mob spiri t,
was prevalent throughout the county. The
same numbersof the Ad0ertiSer & Democrat al
so gives the vote of that county in the late
election, from which it appears that the Demo
cratic majority, is about 1900, The Republi-
can vote in that county, is SMALL comparative-
ly but a handful The Ozaukee editor is OF
course elated over the result in that county.
Furthermore the same nmber of the AdUer
tiSer j. Democrat, has artic lie of considerab lie
length under the editorial head, advising the
the disbanding of the Republican party-ar-
guing with much zeal and warmth, that Re-
publicans are unfit to govern and have contrO
of the country.
Now we suppose the logical deduction from
the foregoing statements and assumptions, is
simply this The renowned Democratic coun>
ty of Ozaukee, has just given the world all ex>
hibition OF Democratic rule. Where it has un>
disputed sway, and not interfered with by
Republican and Union bayonets, it can resist
drafts, demolish houses, smash things generals
ly and mal>treat loyal citizens therefore the
Republican party should disband at once, and
give place to Democratic rule Is not the logs
&c of the AdUertiser & Democrat conclusive?

ROGUE CAUGHr.-On the night Of the 10Th
ult., the house of William II. Mitchell, Of
Kennebunk, was entered by burglars, who
stole from the bureau, bank bills, gold and
silver to the amount OF sixty dollars, toscth-
or with sundry notes Of hand:
Mr.. Mitchell called on City Marshal Tar
box, Of this city. and acquainted him with
the facts. Suspicion fixed itself upon man
by the name Of Cyrus Thompson. Mr.. Tar
box watched his movements for few days,
and at length found out where he had spent
some OF tho money, when he Immediately
arrested him and locked him up in the watch
house. After remaining there some twelve
hours, Thompson concluded to reveal the
whole affair. and confessed that no had en-.
tered tho house and stolen the money, and
had spent all of it, but the pockct-book, con.
tanning the notes, was concealed in the woods.
Mr.. Tarbox accompanied him some three
miles in the woods, where the pocket-book
and notes wero found buried in the ground.
In this case, as in many others quito 70.
Gently, Mr.. Tarbox has exhibited much tact
in detecting and securing persons guilty OF
criminal acts.

Tho Ililtm Head correspondent OF tho
Herald, under date Of July %, says u refu-
gee from Charleston reports that Gen. Smith
is in command there. The rebels have sent
nino infantry and two cavalry regiments
thence to Richmond, and otherwise depleted
their force by placing large guards on tho
Savannah railroad. Every one capable Of
bearing arms is forced to volunteer in tho
Southern army.
Two iron-clad rams similar to the Sferri-
mac arc being constructed ut Charleston to
destroy the bIockading vessels. The steam
ers Herald and Memphis had arrived from
Liverpool with valuable supplies. Tho
steamer Economist was expected. and has
probably reached there. rs large sdo-wheeI
steamer ran in last Friday.
The feet Off Charleston has been augment
ed, and 1t Is thought now impossible Tor tho
vessels there to get out without captare.-
The rebel steamer Nashville Is cornered nn-
der an eight gun battery in Dough bay

cavalry have, by order Of Gen. Pope, been
detailed on recruiting service in this State,
for the purpose of enlistins sufficient num-
Der of men to dill the regiment to its maxi
mum number. For tins purpose some four
hundred men are required.
We have the most gratifying accounts from
various sources, OF the excellency Of the
Maine cavalry, both as regards tho character
and discipline Of the men. Among the off.
GERS the utmost harmony prevails, and all is
going on in the most cheering manner. This
regiment takes deservedly high rank, and
is the object Of many compliments from high
military officers.
To those who prefer this branch Of theser-
vice, the Maine cavalry offers such adunta.
ees as can be found only in body of men
well known for their efficient discipline and
good service in the field.
The regiment is under Gen. Pope, and will
undoubtedly participate in his advance move

A Man Who Understands his Business

We refer to Alex. II. Rowe, Esqy thegen-
tlemanly conductor on the Portland, Saco
and Portsmouth Railroad. Mr.. Rowe has
become one Of the fixtures Of this road, hav.
ing if VIC are not mistaken, been connected
with it in various capacities for q great many
years. At any rate, his face is to us, the
most familiar Of any Of the employees on
tho road, and We should certainly think that
something was scout of joint" If wo failed
to see him at the tcrmini, or in the cars.
Everybody speaks well Of Alexander as a
conductor. He is uniformly polite, attentive
and pleasant. The thousand and ono qucs-
tions which passengers are in the habit Of
asking, are always answered pleasantly, and
we never know or heard Of his answering ov-
or one Of those foolish questions so often
asked, in peevish manner or in that indie
cent haste, so often experienced in railway
car.
The women and children who are obliged
to travel sometimes without their husbands
and fathers, are carefully looked after, and
assisted by Mr.. Rowe, who seems to boa self
constituted guardian ad htem for this class Of
the travelling public.
What is better still, he is no rcspecter of
persons, he treats rich and poor alike, and
smiles as blandly upon the poor old cripple
who needs his assistance as upon him who
has money enough to buy a railroad, andrun
1t on his own account. The corporatian and
the public are alike fortunate in having a con-
ductor so dcservedly popular.
May he live to green old ago and always
be conductor on the p. s. & p. Railroad.
