The exchange OF prisoners does not vet

assurance, and insist on all their demands
being complied with, involving surren-
der Of all the Government claims in be-
half Of its black soldiers, and all the ad-
vantage it possesses by excess of prisoners

TO meet this matter, and that is with firm

octogenarian Gideon to act upon. Let
there be built, forthwith, six more iron

THE DEAET IN ILLINOIS.
Because 30 much is said Of the arrears OF

seem in danger Of believing that it all rests
with this county, and that they are them
selves released from excrtions. We have
attempted to make prominent correction
Of this error heretofore, and desire to re-
peat it, that there are not twenty counties
in Illinois that arc not In arrears Of men.
Among those that are the most so in North
en- Illinois, are
Carroll, 10 DaHs.s, Stephenson.
And other neiEhboring counties not
named arc nearly as much behind. The
9th Of January il near ut hand, at which
time all bountics ceasc, and the draft must
take place. Let there be no hanging back
now. Lot all our counties fall at work
