Brig. Gen. s. 4. Meredith,
ComnnissiCner for Exchange Of PriSOHers !:
SIR ii am not yet informed whether any, or how
far rel ei may have reached unfortunate prisoners
of war in Richmond and its vicinity under the orders
of the Secretary OF War to send supplies 10 them Of
both food and clothing.
Mr.. Ould should be notified, for the information Of
his Government that whatever steps may have BEEN or
may be- taken 10 extend relief 10 the prisoners of
in Richmond), must on consideration, be appealed
to by the enemy to relieve him from the obligation to
treat prisoners according to the laws Of civilized warfare
IT, in other words prisoners in Ricbm ond fail to
ceivS such supplies the laws alike of humanity and
war require the authorities in chmond must be il
formed that will not be consideredA valid explanation
or for them to appeal to the fact shouldn't exist
that supplies from US have not reached them.
The action Of our Government on this matter is dc
tated purey by humanity and is only effort to
ieve our prisoners of suerngs inflicted upon them
trary TO the claims of both humanity and the laws Of
war, and must not be understood relieving the
thorities of Richmond from responsibility to the Chri-
tan world in the premises
If the authorities in Richpond will send US these pri-
soners we will not only feed and clohe them but will
continue to supply food and clothing heretofore to
such prisoners may b. in possession and you will
propose Mr.. 0uld that in this will agree with
out any reserve to epect the parole they may give
cordpg TO the laws Of war, from which they shall not
be relieved in view of the past differences or pending
questions the subject of exchange, without the pre-
vousy obtained consent Of the authorities represented
by Mr. 0uld, agent for exchange under the cartel
You will please lose time communicating copy
of this note certified by yourself to Mr.. 0uld and will
urge upon him its acceptance due to the most solemn
considerations in the face Of the civilized world.

BRIG. Gen. s. A. Meredith,
agent Of Exchange:
SIR-The letter of Gen. Hitchcock has been received.
Until the Confederate authorities appeal to be reliey
ed "from the obligatn to treat prisoners Of &C
cording to the laws of civilized warfare" "ofer
an explanation or excuse" for insufficient food that
supplies have not been forwarded by your Government
it is entirely unnecessary to discuss what will be the
views of your authorities in eli her contingency. State
ments most UNANIMOUSLY false, have recently been made
and circulated at the North by persons whose calling
should have imposed respect for truth, which their
own personal honor to have failed 10 Our
regulations requrs that prisoners shall receive the SINE
raons as soldiers in the field. Such your prisoners
have received, and will contirus to receive. Do
y.u ask more? If 30, what do you demand :
We recognize, in the fullest form, our obigao
to treat your prisoners with humanity, and TO serve
them with the same food in quantity aud quality as is
given TO our own soldiers. II the supply IL scAnty you
have only to blame the system Of warfare you have
wsged against There nothing in the action Of the
Confederate Government which gives any sort OF
teuance to the charge Of cruelty or inhumlny to your
Or soners. In the first pace, we have mportuned you
to agree 70 fair and honest proposition which would
secure the release Of all Of them. When that
ected you haze been permitted to send without stint
or limi tation all kinds Of supplies t. them
General Hitchcock requests that the prisoners in
our hands be returned 70 your lines. This Is not ac
companed with any proposition release our prisoners
nov in your hands So far from that being the case he
promises "to continue to supply food and clothing
heretofore" to SUCH General Hitchcock need not have
urged ycu to lose time in communicating" his let.
ter No degrees of haste would have secured the
Of the Confederate authorities to proposition so IA
Erautly uneqr&
We are ready to relieve your Government from the
burthen of supplying flood and clothing heretofore
TO our people your hands, and If they sent to
shall be returned TO youthe side the
other to be on parole. hope you will "urge" upon
Gen. Hitchcock the acceptance Of this proposition s
due to the most solemn considerations in the face of the
civilizsd world"
We sre content that the civilized world" should draw
its own conclusions when Il contrasts the two Offers
will thank you TO forward this communication to Gen.
Hitchcock or inform him that the Confederate authon
ties decline to accept his proposition

Every soldier is in for arming them and
