NEW YORK, June 15.-The Richmond
Examiner Of the 9Th, says more than TO-
600 prisoners are at Andersonville, Ga,
and upwards Of 5000 have died there.
The average mortality is IS daily, with a
prospect of an increase. On the 9Th, 100
were to be sent there from Richmond, it
having been made general depot; 900 to
1000 officers are to lie sent. The Union
officers are quartered at Macon, Ga. Let
tiers for these prisoners should be prepaid
TO their new quarters.
The Worlds Washington special says:
An informal meeting of the republican
members considered the $500 exemption
clause, many deeming it injurious, and
the impression is that It will not pass the
House.
Within few days a draft for 200, 900

~rTRE War PATH.-The gay and fes-
tive young men of this city have recently
divided themselves into tribes, and have
adopted certain aboriginal expressions and
habits BY which they are able to make
each other understood, without exposing
any knowledge of their dOiugs to those
who may be regarded as outsiders. Near
ly every prominent tribe is represented,
but siDgularly enough, they all speak the
same language. When one of these red
men goes on a spree, be is said to be
ou the war path. When he takes q drink
be is supposed to take q scalp. When he
goes to his bed he retires to his wigvam,
and his money is described as Waupum.
These tribes are led by different big chiefs
Sui warriors, and although not always as
peaceful as might be desired, they appear
70 be . unit upon the scalp question,
which is all absorbing. Some of the
braves are never sstiated, but go 70 their
WigWams reeking with gore. The war
whoop is often heard in the silent hours Of
the night and the war path is crowded
with braves As long as there is a scalp to
tske and wamPum to take it. Pale faces
are those who never go on the war path,
aad consequently never take any scalps,
and woe be TO the warrior who goes back
on bis red brothers BY refusing to take q
scalp. BE is Kissed out of his tribe in dis
grace. The hunting grounds of these
tribes lie wherever sealps appear to be the
most abundant, and the days are numbered
by moons. The biggest and most power
fol chief is be who takes the most scalps.
We regret to say that the tribes are daily
increasing in numbers and efficiency, and
that the number of scaIps taken recently is
fearful to think of.
In this connection We are requested to
announce that big chief of the OEi.
bvsys is about to depart on a long jour.
Dey towards the land Of the setting sun,
snd that council is shortly to be held in
the forest, at which the war dance will be
introduced in honor of the great event.

H~T HE POLIcE-Tbere is likely to be
q strike among the Deputy City ssrgeAnts.
Heretofore they have been receiving tblr-
ty-6Ve dollars a month and now they ask
forty, and have petitioned the councils to
;has effect. This is little enough, and both
the Sergeant and the Councils are willing
TO pay it. The difficulty is that the Ser
geant claims that his salary will not
justify him in giving the advance and
Iome Of the counctlmen refuse to increase
the pay of the Deputies because they think
the Sergeant ought to do so out of his
salary, which they consider ample. The
Deputies say they will not serve unless
their pay is increased, aud the Sergeant
Gays he cannot hold ths Office if forced 70
pay the advance. The matter has been re-.
fsrIed by Councils to = speeisl COMMITTEE.
whose duty it will be to ascertain the
amount of fees received BY the Sergeant,
aud We hope the matter will be amieably
arranged.
