No More Prisoners to be Taken.

NO MOIe fTlSOueIA 10 D0 16kcus
TIE Richmond Enquirer is of the opinion that no
more prisoners should be taken in this war. The
means of su bsstence are so in Richmond that
the Enquirer assures the Yankee soldiers that they
had better fight to the last and die the field than
be taken prisoners and suffer the hardships of the
coming winter in that placed That paper says:
1--WE believe there are too many prisoners taken
bin this war-far more than in any ether of which
history makes mention-and perhaps something
will be gained if the breaking off of the cartel shall
Induce soldiers on both sides not to be taken pris-
oners We certainly recommend it to our men not
to surrender if they do So their lot is probably to
be crowded in such filthy dens as Fort Delaware till
the end of the war; onIy to be exchanged when
their health is broken utterly, SO that they be
of no use either to the cause to themselves. II
our words could, by any means, reach the Yankee
soldiers, we would tell them that their fate ALSO if
they come here as prisoners cannot be very bright
one this, coming winter 1t is true our authorities
do what they fairly ean-with Justice to own peo-
ple-to give them humane usage; and that our med.
ical officers afford them, and will continue to afford
them every assistance in their pover but there are
Ia, 900 of them now in Richmond, not to mention
those detained at ether places. There is here. if
pot scarcity, at least great desrth Of provisions
Ind not less Of fuel while, as to medicines, they
hre "contraband of wal" and our enemies use ex.
IRENE diligence in keeping them from US altogether.
We would assure those Yankee soldiers that death
on the field were far better than captivity here this
winter, and would accordingly counsel 4sm also
not to be taken alive.
If the cartel Of exchange is indeed to beat an
end that may help to bring to close this dragging
and lingering war. Yankee raiders will no loager
look upon an expedition into our lines ss mere
party of pleasure, feeling that if they are cut or
!hey have only to surrender, then travel through
.Se South to see the country, be immediately eK-
hanged, and prepare for another raid. There are
100 many prisoners taken; if command shall be
hereafter cut off let it cut through or be cut down.

SIN the 2sth regiment the company from Orange

votes. The company in the 7th regiment from
Wake voted almost unanimously for Turner.
Two companies from Stanly and one from Mont
gomery gave Christian 70 votes, and Ashe ID, and
, SO in proportion in the brigade
In this brigade the contest between Ramsay and
Lander is close but in Cooks brigade Ramsay was
sweeping nearly all the votes.
Gather has small majority over Smith. W. N.
q. Smith got all the votes from his District in the

WHAT TIE MEETINGS ARE COMPOSED oF-Col.
Thos. NJ. Garrett, of the 9th N G. regiment, offers
reward of $3.50 for the arrest of c. D. Sides, de-
serter from that regiment. Col Garrett says:
"This man deserted on the 10th of May last, and
was last heard of as figuring on the committee to
draft resolutions for meeting held in Forsyth
county on the 26th August"
A deserter drafting resolutions for peace meet
ing! No wonder the administration Of President
Davis was denounced at such meetings Deserters,
of course, are opposed to sending any more men
from North. Carolina.-Rich. Dispatch.
The Winston Sentinel, printed in Forsyth Coun-
ty, says:
"Col. Garrett is mistaken in supposing the de-
serter above mentioned is the same person who
took part in the peace meeting here in August last
Their names are identical however, and this led to
the mistake, for the O. D. Sides who did figure in
the peace meeting here, is an old citizen of the
county and has never been in the service"
