Irregularities having occurred In The

order.
No prisoners Of war, after having
been reported 10 the COmmisssFy General
oi Prisoners, will be discharged, except
upon an order from the Commissioner for
the exchange OF Prisoners, who will act
under instructions from this department.
2. All applications and reeommsnda-
tions Tor discharge will be forwarded 10
the Oommissary General Of Prisoners,
who will indorse on each application
such facts, beSring on the case ~ may
be matter Of record In his Office, When
the application will be submitted for the
decision Of the department, through the
Commissioner for the exchange Of Pris-
Oners.
la general, the mere desire 10 bs
discharged upon taking the oath Of Alleg-
lance will furnish no sufficient ground for
such discharge but cases where it can
be shown that the prisoner was impressed
into the rebel service, or which can plead
in pailiation extreme youth followed by
open and decl ,red repentance, with other
reasons, Whatever they may be, may be
specially reported.
la alt oases, n descriptive list OF
those discharged will be furnished by
the officer making the discharge, for file
IN the office Of the Commissary General

Assi.t.n, Altman, Gener,
.he vote OF y n,ueIsr.

The OopperheAd howl over the Ken
lucky election has pretty much died
away. At 6rst there was a dismal cry
over the assumption that Democrats were
not permitted to vote, and as they ran
no regular candidates for Congress in
three districts, there was a show Of 6g-
urts on their side. But a. the returns
came in, the ruth began to appear Ad.
dlns the number OF volunteers from Ken
lucky now in service TO the aggregate
vo ust cast. we get poll Of over l30-
600 IN the State. In 1859 there were
l43 40 votes for Governor, In 1860, for
Poesldent 1472l6; in 1891, for Border
Convention Delegates Ill, ,1l6 Nov, de-
duct from full poll the thousands Of
Rebels who have left the State q follow
the fortunes Of JEFF Davis, and il appears
that, instead of being Kept away from
the polls by Gen. Burnside's order, the
loyal voters OF all parties came out very
strong. That Democrats voted for Col
Bramlette, and, in some disiricts, for
Union candidates for Congress, is GER
tain. This may be a aCoppcrheAd griev-
ance, but tits family affair, which
they can settle among themselvss.--N

Gen. Grant, the cOnquorOr Of larger

of modern times, is warmly in favor OF
enlisting negroes in the Federal army,
and is lending all his aid and influence

speecb, from the report Of which the following
extract is taken: c5tt T Ff +
Without casting reflection upon any military
man, Il appeared to him that this has been Q
brainless war. ("Thats So" and laughter
The means OF the country have been wasted In
isolated places. Cont aotors have carried on
tbe war, The blood Of our men, tho groane
of tho wounded, the tears Of the orphan, and
the walls of the widow, have been coined into
money. Men without pltriotiem and WELDON
have urged military plane which have not ac-
complis6ed anything, Expeditions have been
got up 20 wipe The outside OF the plstter on tne
coast while ihere arc places that could be struck
to rapidly terminate the rebellion.
Since making his speech 'he General has

What is Loyalty in one Man is Dis
loyalty in AnOther-A Negro War.


Mr.. M. D. LOWRY, member OF the Penn
sylvapis State Senate, at q "Loyal League"
meeting in Philadelphia, q few evenings since,
made speech, from which the following ex-
tract lie taken bf
This war Ia for the African and his race
The six hundred c0lored men who have recent
ly fallen have elevated the race. For oil l
know, the Napoleon OF this war may be done
up in black package. (Lsughter.) We have
no evidence of his being done up In white one
as yet. When this war was no larger than my
hand, ! said that If any negro would bring me
bis disloyal masters head would give him one
hundred and sixty acres Of his disloyal master q
| plantation. (Lsughter and applause The
man who talks of elevatlng the negro would
not have to elevate him very much to make
him equal to himself.
Here Ia dstnct declaration, not made by O
so-called I" Copperhead," but by "Loyal "
Lacquer, that this war is negro war, carried
on for the benefit OF the African race. We
suppose, according to the Abolition rule Of In
depreciation, there is nothing "disloyal" in the
sentiments expressed in the above extract
nothing tending to discourage enlistments OF
to divide the people Of the Northern States, be-
cause uttered by Lacquer at League meet
ing. Had the same or similar expressions been
used by any other man as q meeting of dif-
fersnt political character, the case would have
