Fuoeral armies; they a15-committed bJ gu
armies in the encpy's country, Excefaes OF
thu most horrible Kind vert committed by
our own a1m1ee on these verv scenes. Con"
federate property bps been destroyed BY
Federals on land, while Federal property
was being destroyed in way peculiarly bar
bsrous bJ the Conftderates at ssa. But NC
have heard of no denial Of quarter to, and
M maltYeatmert Of, Confederate prisoners; !;

tinction, to the wounded on both sides.
