and they, therefore, resolved to discontinue
the exchange, in order to reap the advan:
tages resulting from our fancied weakness.
Events have shown their calculations to be
erroneous. The Confederate armies have
displayed a strength and power of resistance
at once astonishing and embarrassing. In
the meantime, their own armies, decimated
by disease and by the sword, have been rap
idly melting away, and they must be re-
cruited by extraordinary and unpopular
measures. 1t might be supposed that at
such q moment, when we hold the majority
Of prisoners, and when they feel so strongly
the necessity of-augmenting their forces,
they would beanxious to gain cheap cred
it for humanity and good faith by resuming
the exchange. Not at all. They have now
another and more powerful reason for re-
fusal. The exchanged Confederate prison
ers would at once return to their respective
commands, and thereby increase the mum.
bers and the strength Of the Confederate
armies !; while the released Federal soldiers,
their terms of enlistment having expired,
would return to their homes surfeited of
war, and by no means willing again to en-
counter its hardships and its periis: Let
Confederate prisoners freeze and die on
Johnson's Island the sight only gladdens
the Yankee heart; and confirms their inhu.
man calculation of the final exhaustion and
determination of the race, of Southern SOL
diers. Let, Yankee prisoners enrich by
hundreds and thousands the pine lands of
Georgia; the Confederates willhape to feed
them till they die; and as, while living they
could be Of no benefit to the Yankee armies,
when dead they will be safely and comfort.
ably out of the way. This is just the his.
tory and d.e1plauation Of the whole business.
There can be no doubt that the Yankee
Government would be glad enough to let
the question settle itself by the death Of
every Yankee soldier now held in captivity.
Thus do the most enlightened people on the
globe walk in the darkest ways, and "the
best Government the world ever saw" re-
sort to the worst of crimes.
