regiments, who were captured at Shiloh Tho
treatment they received from their chiudZrons
captors, entities them to place among tho
martY1s Of the rebellion. Two Of the party
were taken some days before the battle, and
after having passed searching examination
by the rebel generals, we're hurled to Mobile,
thence to Tuscalopsa, where they we're i'm

incarcerated about one hundred aRd itty citi-

cation of property, exile, imprisonment and
every species Of cruel taunt the ingenuity Of
hends could devise, rather than prove traitors
TO their country. These men exchanged
exchange for their emblematic blue thei7 o III
coarse brown and gray homespun, which
enabled them to pass unsupported through

told me this morning that immediately after
