4AeIe Ii hafdly any news TRANSMITTING at
camp Douglas, at present, worthy of news
paper mention. Our own soldiers arc dailV
drilling and engaged in reginental and bat
1allon exercises, to thoroughly prepare them
lot the more active service upon which they
will probably soon enter. The weather IL
very pleasant, and the camp ground thorough
y dry, but this does not appear 10 improve
the sanitary condition Of the prisoners. There
are really more now in hospital than there
have been at any previous time, and it will bo
seen below that the number of deaths for The
past forty y-eight hours reaches twelve. incln-
ding one Of cur own illinois men, who died
from the effects Of 3 gun-shot wound, receiy-
ed by accident a few weeks since.
twill be recollected that many weeks since
q Commission, said to have been appointed
By Secretary Of War Cameron, came to this
city to examine the prisoners, with 4 view to
the discharge Of such Of them as seemed re-
peutaEt Of their past deeds, and were willing
to take the oath Of allegiance, and give > writ
ten guarantee, backed by bond and suretIcs,
that they would hereafter conduct themselves
as good and loyal citizens. The Commission
we're to report to General Halleck, and he.
II he thought proper, would issue an order for
their discharge. It is now understood that
the authority upon which this Commission
acted was OF doubtful origin. At any rate,
We learn that the whole thing was ouash-
ed By Secretary Stanton, and the labors Of the
Commission thus came to naught
