can be paid by prisoner Of war TO his
individual captor or any officer in COM
mand. The Government alone releases
captives, according to rules prescribed
by itself.
%. Prisoners of war are subject 10
confinement or imprisonment such as
may be deemed necessary on account of
safety, but they are to be subjected TO
no other intentional suffering or indg-
nifty. The confinement and mode Of
treating a prisoner may be varied during
the captivity according to the demands
of safety.
76 Prisoners Of war shall be fed upon
plain and wholesome food, Whenever
practicable, and treated with human-
ity.
They may be required to work for the
benefit of the captors Government, &c.
cording to rank and condition.
a. A prisoner of war who ESCAPES
may be shot, or otherwise killed in bie
flight; but neither death nor any other
punishment shall be inflicted upon him
simply for his attempt TO escape, which
the law of war does not consider q crime.
Stricter means of security shall be used

orously punished, even with death; and
capital punishment may also be inflicted
upon prisoners of war discovered TO have
plotted rebellion against the authorities
of the csptors, whether in union with
fellow prisoners or other persons.
Io. If prisoners of war, having given
no pledge nor made any promise on their
honor, forcibly, or otherwise, escape, and
are captured again in battle, after having
rejoined their own army, they shall not
be punished for their escape; but shall
DO treated as simple prisoners of war,
although they will be subjected 10
stricter confinement.
20. Every captured wounded enemy
shall be medically treated, according TO
the ability of the medical staff.
80 Honorable men who are captured,
will abstain from giving to the enemy in
formation concerning their own army,
and the modern law of war permits no
longer the use of any violence against
prisoners, in order to extort the desired
information, or to punish them for hav-
ing given false information.

and thata cabinet crisis has been caused by prop.

Withdrawing the Emancipation Proclamation, sus-
pending the Confscaton oct. and offering protection
to the perons property, aud rights Of the Southern
people, except the leaders, that Attorney
General Bates and Dir. Montgomery Blair
favor the scheme, with q modification; that
Messrs Stanton and Chase violently oppose
30 strongly. Here, where the public 10 accustomed

not thought of sufficient Importance to demand at
tention. It seems now that they went to Europe,
and were made the foundation there Of new castles
in the air, built by the European enemies OF the
United States. 1t Is therefore proper TO say that
these statements bad no foundation whatever in fact
No such debates or propositions, any debate or

have any such differences arisen.
