TUE CRUELTIEs TO OUR SOL
DIFRS,

On the sixth page we print some extracts
from the testimony embodied in the Report by
the Sanitary Commission on the treatment OF
our soldiers in Rebel prisons. All that we have
space for is but fragment Of the Report, and
all the evidence in the Report is an iniinitesi-
nal fraction of the terrible whOle--but hint Of
that awful cruelty which the Rebel leaders de-
veloped into such system as the transient ie-
rocity Of savage tribes, and the ttiul delight Of
Spanish InquistOrs in torture, never equaled
nor approached. For it must be understood
that these atrocities are system, not occasional
nor exceptional but the steady Development of
deliberately adopted purpose-a purpose half
policy, half wanton barbarity-a purpose TO
augment the horrors Of war, the dangers Of bat
de, the ordinary chances of death and wounds,
by the more pitilesa seventies Of a captivity on
which ingenuity should have layisbed all the
resources Of torment.
1t is the conclusion Of this Committee-a
Committee made up Of names eminent in medi-
cal science, in social position, in the legal pro-
fession and in the church--that the plundeGing,
The starvation, the needless exposure to cold,
the immersion Of prisoners in filth, the subjec-
ton Of them to insult and to death at the hands
Of brutal guards--all the countless miseries
which made up the sum Of imprisonment at the
South-were the result ofno carelessness onthe
part of the Rebel authorities, Of no mere ndif.
ference TO tho welfare Of men whom they hated,
but of their determination TO rcpel and deter
the Northern people fromthe prosecution of this
war. We ardently wish that this report could
be spread in full before the country for there is
no document, no collection OF evidence so
abundantly illustrating the spirit Of this internal
Rebellion. The Sanitary Commission publishes
it at price merely nominal, and it Is printed
also by the Littells in Boston in more compact
form. Circulate 1t widely. The report itself is
drawn up with very great ability, and the cvi-
dence, as may be judged from our extracts, puts
the facts beyond all dispute or contradiction
from whatever source.
