ours And as the glorious irol hles OF our
victory we had TO show 8 006- prisoners, more
than 80 pieces Of srtillegy md 1ODO small

SO PERISH TRAITORS,

The Chicago Tribune furnishes the following
compilation of the VAllandiEhAm trial:
Vaandighan the traitor, has brought the
matter of his trial, conviction and punishment
before the Supreme Court Of the United States
upon petition for . writ of csrtiorari, directed
to the Judge Advocate General, in order that
the proceedings Of the Military Commission
might be revised and the sentence annulled.-
The Supreme Court has dismissed the petition
on the ground that il hAs no jurisdiction in the
case. The decision virtually says that the pro.
ceedings of Military Commission, approved by
the Commander-in-Chief are 6nal and in this
case, 30 final that Valandigbam must eubmit to
them and content himself in Canada living upon
the scantv contributions of the faithful. The
Courts of his own State have decided against
him, the people OF his own State have kicked
him out, and now the Supreme Court of the
Uuited States has put It's fnsl stamp upon him.
IT. after all shis he is not convinced that he is an
infamous traitor and deserves bis punishment
he s truly irrsclaimable. Il is q fearful blow
to him and all the copperheads.
Il strips from them their great stock in trade
by recognizing and endorsing the fact Of military
independence in time of war. Il robs Vsllan-
dIgham Of every claim be possessed to the posi-
ton Of martyr and exposes him as an usblushing
open traitor, receiving bis deserts. his fate is
a miserable one. His own friends viii desert him
now. The JEFF Davis organ OF this city is al
ready doing it. and before many days be will not
have friend in the country be helped 10 betray,
except among those who are in arms against it,
and be will so down to history as he stands now,
poor, infatuated, disastardy traitor. who
shought to oppose his puny strength sgans. .
great nation struggling for its integrity. Jsdss

THE BLACK HOLE IN NEW YORK.

The health Officer OF New York, Dr. Savers,
reports concerning horrible place OF conine-
ment in that city. It is situated in the park in
the center of the city. 1t is Is feet in height,
30 in length and in width. Ii is tightly board
ed on three sides the fourth, which is directly
opposite a red-hot stove, being closed by slats
four inches vide and three apart. In this room
there is not seat Of any kind, nor anything to
cover the floor, with the exception Of the accu-
mulAted flsh Of many months. There have been
az high as II men confined at one time there be-
ing at present 81, come Of whom have been
there from three to four months, inearcerated
for vicious military offences. guard is placed
on the outside to prevent escape, and is waiting
to accompany them to the water closet, one at a
time, the Others having to wait their turn, no
matter bow pressing the necessity from dysente-
~, diarrn9a and other causes, and the result Of
this barbsrity can be better imagioned than dis
cribed. The are fed through the bars,
taking their food in their fingers, no knives or
forks being allowed, and spoons only when they
have soup. BY lying upon their sides in spoon
fashion, and by close packing, IS can lie down,
and being furnished with no blankets, they arc
obliged 10 lie on the bare foor, while the remain
der are taken out and chained TO the trees until
the IS have bad some sleep, If sleep can come
in such place, when they are transferred. The
only mode Of cleaning the place is by forcing
water IN hose through the Stats. The water
stands in some places an inch or two deep.
These statements are confirmed by Brig. Gen.
Dix and Mayor Gunther; nevertheless, they
seem almost TOO terrible for belief
