Exchange of Prisoners,

difficulty seems to have arisen in regard to the
change of prisoners and for the present but sick aud
wounded exchanged. Richmond is with Yam
kee prisoners, and will all other military prisons
soon be-
Whether this state of things will continue long short
time whether intended by the enemy that the rule
OF exchange of prisoners shall prevail hereafter have
OF Judging. It is said Mr.. STANTON, LINCoLNs
Secretary of War; has been uniformly opposed to all
changes judging that in consideration of greatly nferi
or numbers people, compared with the enemy, the
sures way TO cripple and reduce fighting population
would be to keep all the prisoners that captured. He
also calculates that the prisoners may take will also
tend to cripple by imposing additional and heavy bur-
dens upon subsistence deemed be already
sufficiently scanty.
We have doubt IN the world but that Mr.. STANTON
would reason, and would be willing and anxious
so to act if he could, but he The service
is already sufficiently unpopular at the North, and
neither the draft calls for volunteers to
ill up the ranks to be depleted by the expi-
ration of the Of enlistment of large number of the
soldiers Let it be understood that there is be
exchange Of prsoners-that each gentleman with
abdomen who may become prisoner, may stay prs-
in the South with the chance Of short commons
the game of raising army at the North up. In
fact rather think that the stoppage of change would
weaken the enemy than would do the Confederacy
and for this feel almost certain that sys
will soon be agreed upon and put in operation for
sumption. We believe STANTON to be capable of most
things, and humanity good faith towards Confede
rates the Confederacy the only consideration involved
would expect nothing at his hands but his peo
pe for taer sakes, will compel him to nave
gard for decency and the rules of honorable
fare

The QUESTION OF FUEL at the North is attracting
quite much attention as at the South. Last year
coal 81 so per ton it is $l0 and still rising
and the Increase of coal mined this year the last is
million and hall OF tons. The reason of the increase
of price due to the immense number of steamers in
the service of the Government. The New York News
this winter is being consumed by the feet Of ironclads
that have lain of Charleston during the last one hun
dred days, and will remain there Indefinitely. While
the Government thus demands coal in one direction it
sends force of 10000 troops into the mines of Penn
sylvania draft the miners into the army in such pro-
portion that labor has became so that miners are
paid SIS per day Thus, while the workmen of New
York must pay double and triple prices for COAL the
owners of mines pay immense wages. The same cir
cumstances psrvade all employments In all directions
labor is become and wages higher The cost of
all goods increasing and holders know that they can
not be replaced at former rates.-Rihnsond Wig.
