Mr.. EDITOR Rev. d. II. R,nuey, Coums.
soner Of the Board Of Enrolment in the Second
Congressional District, is improving the interval
between the Drafts, in addressing the people Of The
several towns on the War and the Draft.
A large audience assembled in the Town Hall
in this place, last evening, to listen to him.
His address was one Of tie most forcible, To-
siruc,ive, and convincing efforts, it has been our
privilege to hear for some time, lie discussed the
CONSUMPTION Act in its objects, it, bearing upon
the progress Of the War, and its practical results.
lie urged his bearers TO avail themselves Of the
offer of the Government, and promptly raise their
full quota by voluntary enlistment, showing ,ba,
public sentiment demanded the vigorous prosecu.
ton Of the War, and as means to that end, the
repeal Of the three hundred dollars Communication

Judge Collamer was present. and at the close
Of Mr., Rauney's lecture, addressed the audience
in a shor, speech, showing the waning prospect,
of the Contederacy, in the capture OF their teri.
tory, the exhaustion Of their men, and the worth.

vicIion that the =" beginning Of the end was al.

was referred to by both speakers, The policy Of
the Government was heartily endorsed.

CONDITION OF FEDERAL PRISONERS AT RICH-
MoND.-There has been much newspaper discus
sion lately in relation to the condition Of the
Federal prisoners at Richmond, and there seem,
to be well grounded apprehensions that they ar,
not properly and sufficiently supplied with food
We have been disposed TO believe that some o.
the representation, respecting this lack OF pro-
visions were exaggerated for effect upon our Gov
eminent, influencing it to yield to rebel demands
in the matter Of exchanges, through the enlist
ment Of its ,ympathies in behalf Of starving
Union prisoners. We cannot yet believe that
any Of our men, prisoners in the hands Of the
rebels, are actually starving, but that they are
kept on scanty ratons seems now to be well estab.
lished. The Richmond Dispatch Of receut
date, admits as much when It says
"lf We are starving ourselves, how can we
keep them from starving. But the truth is hat
though straitened 10 our means OF life, we are
doing as well for our prisoners . for ourselves.
Our own people, as we know Of our own personal
knowledge, are in some cases denied meat for
their own families, because it is necessary for the
Yankees"
