Eas- At the feGeut exchange OF 5000 priS
oners at AIken's Landing the difference of
treatment was strikingIy manifested. The
rebel exchanges were transported III comfota-
he vessels, were well fed aud in ceanly trmi !;
our Union men were marched thirteen miles
GU foot had no food the entire day beyond
two small biscuits each, aud had suffered tor
ture indescribabe for want of water. At the
urgent entreaty # Robert Ould, the Rebel
commis, ,ioner in charge of them they were
gtacou>ly permitted to drink from Virginia
well Food was supplied to them by our own
men. The gentleman who furnishes this in
formation says that the exchange of private
soldiers is how completed, and names several
officers. who have also been exchanged. He
says that Col CoRCoRAN will be given for the
Rebel Col. HANSON. We trust there will be
no further hesitation, and that we may soon
have the pleasure of greeting the brave Colo
mel of the gallant S!xtyninth. Butwe doubt !;
JEFF Davis is a treacherous william; he has lied
and deceived many times before in this case,
and the story now IS that he has s. ddenly
stopped the exchange OF prisoners in c0nSe-
quence of General Pores orders about guer-
rlllaS.

From the Chsttsnooga Rebel November l3l
The situation Of affsirs in Middle Tennessee
is very interesting. The enemy still hold Nash
vile, and have been reinforced considerably.
We do not think they will send their whole
army there until the rivers rise, ana their CON-
muncatiens with Louiaville are opened. The
railroad communications is too uncertain to rely
on, and it might be very difficult to subsist an
army Of laFge size at Nashville until the water
communication is open The Tennessee and
Cumberland rivers are likely to remain in their
possession during this winter. What is then to
be done We do not know what sT5 the pur-
poses of cur generals, and if we did it would
not be proper for rs 10 make them known, but
we can give our oHn views as TO the course to
be pursued Middle Tennessee can, and we
trust will, be he'd bv our troops The enemy
can be confined TO the rivers, and by means Of
our cavalry we can Keep them from holding the
various towns in Middle Tennessee, as they did
last spring aud sumter. They will be afraid TO
come into any OF the counties south Of Nash
vile, unless they bring q very largo force for
fear they may be cut OF. They can only hold
ihs places where their army IS ia large force, and
this can ollY be at few points, if any, south Of
Nashville. five have sufficient cavalry force the
enemy can be kept from advancing into the in-
terror except in very large bodies. There is no
doubt that witb proper energy the greater poT-
iion OF Middle TenneSses can be held by us, or
at least the enemy can be kept from holding it
Our communication can be keps oper with
Chattanooga, and if it ever becomes necessary
to fall hack, we would have the means Of C0iog
so with perfect security Il IS Just ss easy to
meet the enemy in Middle Tennessee as any
where else, end we would reap as many fruits
roIn q victory, and sUstsin So little loss from a
defeat there as in any other portion Of the Con-
fsderacy. Every foot of ground We give up,
unless it is absolutely necessary, is so much loss
to us 1t is highly important to the interests Of
the Confederacy that we should hold Middle
Tennessee, and we believe il will be done Let
the people of Middle Tennessee be supplied with
arms and ammunition, and they win keep of all
maraudiug bands Of the enemy. 10 our Judg
ment it will require much larger force than the
enemy have or can bring into the field ts enable
them TO take and hold Middle Tennessee. We
therefore think that we can assure our friends
that.our troops will hold Middle Tenuessee un-
less they are driven from there by overwhelming
numbers, which we do not anticipate.
