MORTALITY AMONG YANKEE FE.soNEEs-
The Columbus Enquirer says that if some ar
rangenent for the exchange of prisoner, is not
speedily effected, the Confederacy will derive
but little benefit from it. a few days ago,
while the ears were at Anllersonyille, the
editor learned that the mortality among the
Yankee prisoners at that point was frishtf;ll
Oae Of the guard informed him that ffty-two
died OF the previous day, and that since
their arrival, the average Of deaths per day
was tlirty-tv Small pox, pneumonia and
diarrhea, taking them OF by Wholesale
The cartel takes 10 account of dead men, and
hence We trust that tie exchange may be re-
sincd before the ranks OF these eight thou
sand prisoners are mach further d-pated.
