KILLED IN BATTLE, in the Shenandoah
Valley, Virginia, on the 18th September, 1864,
Capt. CRAWFORD SCOTT HoUsEwORTH, of the
28th Regiment Iowa Volunteers, and brother
of Mr.. R. F. Houseworth, of this city.
Strangely modest and unasssuming in his
intercourse with bis fellow men in all the rela-
tons of public and private life, in battle he
was brave and fearless. At all times he held
himself subject to the cause of his country,
counting his own life as nothing in the scale
During the whole of the Mexican war he up
held the honor of his native land on many
fiercely contested field. and, after the declara.
ton of peace with that country, he was en-
gagged in a most arduous service against the
Camanche Indians, on the frontiers of Texas,
for three years. Then, wishing for repose, he
resigned his position in the army, and engaged
in Ethe peaceful pursuit of farming, in the
State of Iowa, in which State he was still re-
siding when the tocsin of war, at the fall of
Sumter, summoned the nation to arms. He at
once rendered his services to the Governor of
that State and was accepted
He was with Gen. Grant in all his triumphs
and battles from Fort Donelson to Vicksburg
and Missionary Ridge. After the fall of Allan
ia his regiment, among others, was sent to re-
inforce Sheridan in the Shenandoah Valley,
where, bravely fighting, he fell.
He was at the time of his death, in his 37th
year, and had passed ten years in active mill
tary service.

Many of our men, captured during the

They come back in q truly pitiable plight,
bareheaded, barefooted, without coats,
and almost naked. They all tell tales of
horrid suffering, and verify the statements
of hundreds of others in regard to the la
mentable condition of our prisoners at
Andersonville, Ga. Closely penned, with
out air, naked or in rags, covered with
vermin, fed on putrefying meat, shot down
for trying to catch breath of fresh air at
the windows of their loathsome dens, and
dying off at the rate Of from one to two
hundred day, is but the half of the sick
ening detail. Cannot our government do
something for these sufferers? In Gods

these unfortunate men are fast being hur-

Gen. Mcclellan on the Use Of Negroes
I'm the War.

1t is favorite charge with the advo-
Gates of the election of LINCOLN thae' Ill
the event of the election of Gen. MCOLEL-
Ian, the negroes now in our armies would
be returned to their masters, and thus give
fresh strength to the rebellion. Lest any
one should be misled by these assertions,
we call attention to the fact that Gen.
MoC1EILAN has put himself squarely on
the record ON this subject. We quote
from the Harrison's Landing letter to
President LINCOLN:
The rebellion has assumed the character of
war: as such it should be regarded and it
should be conducted upon the highest princi-
pies known to Christian civilization. It should
not be war looking to the subjugation of the
people of any State in any event. 1t should
not be at all a war upon population, but against
armed. forces and political organizations. Mel
ther contiscation of property, political execu-
ton of persons, territorial organizations OF
states, nor forcible abolition of slavery should
be contemplated for q moment In prosecut-
ing the war, all private property and unarmed
persons should be strictly protected, subject
only to the necessity of military operations.
a
should be paid or receipted for; pillage and
waste should be treated as high crimes all
unnecessary trespass sternly prohibited, and
offensive demeanOr by the military toward cit
liens promptly rebuked. Military arrest should
not be tolerated, except in places where active
hOstilities exist, and oaths not required Dy en-
actments constitutionally made should be mel
Their demanded nor received. Military govern
ment should be confined to the preservation of
public order and the preservation OF political
rights. Military power should not be allowed
to interfere with the relations OF servltude,
either by supporting or impalring the author
ity of the master, except for suppressing dis
order, las in other cases. Slaves cOntraband
under the act of Congress, seeking military
protection, should receive it. The right of the
government to appropriate permanently to its
own service claims to slave labor should be as
serted, and the right of the owner to cempen-
sation therefor should be recognized.
The paragraph embodies, better than
anything ever written, the policy upon
which the Democracy would conduct the
war, should the government be committed
to their charge. "This should not be a
war looking to the subjugation of the peo-
pie of any State in any event. 1t should
not be at all war upon populations, but
against armed forces and political organi-
cations, &c. Forcible abolition
of slavery should not be contemplated for
a moment. Oaths not required
by enactments constitutionally made should
be neither demanded or received.
The right of the government to appropri-
ate permanently to its own service claims
for slave labor should be asserted" These
propositions, in connection with the one
that "the Union should be the one condi-
ton of Peace" comprise policy that will
give this suffering country Union and
Peace.
