Wood versus Coal

The prize Of wood has advanced beyond whal
either the scarcity Of labor or Of the material il.
sell will justify Taken ID connection with stint
ed measure it has nearly doubled, SO that it will
be next to impossible for poor people to protect
themselves from the severity Of the weather. Thi.
Is due mostly to combination on the part OF
sellers. There are those engaged in the unhoy
business of Specializing on the necessities OF the
poor IN times like these, buying up wood in arge
quantities that they may store il away, in hopes
to force the price still higher. 1t lsa thing for
the consumers in then collective capacity to look
to, to shield themselves from imposition and see
il they can find no remedy. The people Of Wind
sor, we understand, have introduced coal, produc-
ing speedy reductio in the exorbant charges
for wood. 1t is believed that coal, even IL its
present rates, would be cheaper than wood, GER.
tainly not dearer. A little Of it goes great way,
it gives more heat, ess trouble, tsmore conyen-
lent every way. That it would come into uniyer.
sal use, Il the move were once begun, we think
there can be little question. 1t would have done
so before now, If wood had not been furnished at
very reasonable rates Let our citizens investigate
the feasibility Of the project otherwise all the fuel
in the neighborhood will be bought up and col
lected in tse hands Of few, and we shall be at
the mercy Of these greedy cormoranis

70 We hope our readers will notice marked
Improvement in this weeks FREEMAN, an i'm
provement which We expect to make still more
conspicuous hereafter The discontinuance Of
the DAILY FREEMAN, (Which we ceased to publish
Dec 3ls) enables US 70 make the WEEKLY
FREEMAN much better paper, both in arrange
ment and matter, than heretofore and our read
ers can see the beginning Of this good result in
this weeks paper. Hereafter we shall give q
full summary OF News, as we have partially this
week, under the editorieI head, instead of scat
tering it over the paper in miscellaneous kilograms
Local and State News will be given large space,
while farmers will be glad to find an Agricultural
Department again. Discussions of political and
mora questions will have room, and selected Mis-
cellany will be given its appropriate place once
more In a word--we intend to make the FREE
MAN what il ought to be- one of the most desira-
bic newspapers in the State.

The Exchange of P isoners.

The correspondence which the rebels have
published between our commissioners, Gems
Hitchcock and Meredith, and the rebel commits
sioner Ould, shows that the difficulty about ex-
changes grows mainly out Of the unsettled ques
tons respecting the prisoners paroled by the
rebels at Gettysburg, and those paroled by
Gems Grant and Banks at Yicksburg aad Port
Hudson. The rebel commissioner claims that
the paroles at Gettysburg arc valid, and should
be offset against as many paroles at Vieksburg,
while our Government insists that the PAROLES
at Gettysburg were in violation Of the cartel,
" not having been received with the consent
of the opposing commander in the field, =
and were therefore not valid, while those
at Vicksburg and Port Hudson are not open
to this objection. The rebels also insist upon
counting all the paroles given by MORGAN and
other guerrillas az valid 1T is evident that the
Government cannot allow this claim without
yielding vital point in the cartel, viz that a
parole, to be valid must be given by "prs-
oner who has been reduced to actual possession,
and received with the consent Of the opposing
commander in the field. !"
The test the Government has applied to the
case proves the dishonesty of the traitors in their
claim. The War Department has offered to
exchange prisoner for prisoner Of equal rank,
thus giving to the rebels a number equal to all
they now hold of ours. This will leave the
question Of paroles just where ii is now and the
rebels then will have all the advantage of US,
as they now have in their hands at least three
times as many paroled rebel soldiers as We have
paroled Union soldiers. II they are confident
they are right in their construction Of the cartel
all they have to do is to declare as many rebel
paroled soldiers exchanged as they have IN any
way paroled Of Union prisoners, balance the
account thus far, and open new books. But It
is because they know they are wrong that they
do not dare do this while we protest against it,
and they only hope, by refusing an exchange on
such shallow pretexts, that we shall be willing
to yield the POINT, IN order to rescue our poor
starving soldiers in rebel dungeons
