Com AFTER REcRUTs.--Captain Wallen
started down the Dellas to Vancouver, to
bring up party of recruits to fight the
locomotive Indians. He stopped for the
night at the Cascades, in the house of an old
man called "Uncle Sammy" an inquisitiye
old fellow, about eighty-six and deaf as a
haddock. After supper, the old man, old

Report of the Committee on the
Conduct of the War; FRESHMEN
OF Union Prisoners. eEI@i 58

NEW YORK, June 28.--The Times Wash
ington special says: Senator Wade as
chairman Of the committee on the Conduct
Of the War, is now here revising the sheets
of the report of that committee, comprising
recent testimony as to the. treatment our
prisoners received at the hands of the reb-
els. The committee says the evidence al
ready shows that tens of thousands of our
brave soldiers have fallen victims to that
savage and internal spirit which actuated
those who spared not the prisoners. at their
mercy, who. sought by midnight arson to
destroy hundreds of defenseless women and
children, and who hesitated not to resort
to means to commit acts so horrid that the
nations of the earth stand aghast as they
are told what has been done. The prison
Surgeons report Of the Richmond prisons
for one quarter, shows that fraction over
one half of all the cases entered resulted in
death, and most of these deaths were more
the result of inhuman treatment and neg
lect than disease. But a little more
than half the necessary number of
beds were provided, and the nurses
often occupied them to the exclusion
OF the sick. After our men died their
bodies were treated as the carcasses
OF SO many dead animals. They were piled
In the dead house and their eyes and cheeks
eaten out by rats before they were put in
collins. Their keepers generally manifested
almost total Indifference to the lives and
condition Of the prisoners, and, as one of
the many illustrations of their acts, the fol-
lowing is given: 81 was standing one day by
the. hospital. One of our, negro soldiers
captured at the explosionsof the mine near
Petersburg was standing near by, engaged
in scratching, as we prisoners call it. e.,
examining his clothes tor vermin. Arebel
sentinel, at whom happened to be looking
at the time, drew: up his pusket, took de-.
llberate aim and.fred, killingAthe negro on.
the spot. On being asked what he did it
for, he answered, TO see the id black son
of a b-h drop The rebels said they:got
thirty days furlough for shooting Yam
kee."
The committee says it is matter of
congratulation that, Notwithstanding the
provocations to pursue different course,
our authorities have ever treated their pris-
Oners humanely and generously, and have
inallrespects conducted this contest accord
ing to- the rules of the most civilized war
fare.

New YORK; UhneG 2SAAn intelligent
officer OF the navy, says the Commercial
Advertiser, who has bee for two years with
the South Atlantic Squadron, and who has
enjoyed unusual opportunities for looking
at the South and the condition of society
there, has communicated some important
facts to us. The quantity of cotton from
Georgia and South Carolina will be less
than has been expected. In wide strip of
territory between Sayannah aud Greepville
all the cotton was destroyed. Outside of
this sand toward 1.-The. coast the cot
ton, unginned and INHALED, is hidden away,
and VIII not be brought out for fear of con-
iisratlon, the owners very generally coming
within the $4,000 range of the Presidents
amnesty. 10 secure such cotton as there
is light draught steamers are needed to
navigate the rivers. rh-S 10 ggT .,,il.sn a
These States are drained of goods of all
sorts, and although many goods have been
taken there. many haYe been reshjpped,
owing to- o'the difficulty ofeelling 5tliem.
Our informant thinks they-should be left
there, as trade is said to revive as rapidly as
the yexed questions Of titles are settled.
The pine lands of the South offer great
advantages to labor and capital, and will
be great source of wealth. Mills are
needed and men to direct them. The
draught animals are gone, and labor is
pretty. thoroughly demoralized. There is
needed an infusion of .Northern enterprize;
OF men skilled in manufacturing, free la
borers, and who comprehend the relations
of system so necessary to the South. Rice
districts are partially planted on shares and
cultivated by free labor. but the cultiva-
tion is Inadequate and the crop promises to
be small. The freedmen do not work well
yet.s Hhey ARE 'inelliciently- treated, and
there s'too much negligence in theirlman-
agement.
On the Sea Islands, there are 10000 ne
groes, who work little and are fed in part
by the Government. These Islands are
partly owned at the North, and it is thought
that Gen. Sherman's assignment of them to
coiored occupation will not hold good, as
they will be reclaimed by the real proprie-
tors. The region on the st. John river Of
ters great advantages to emigrants and to
the investment of capital. The Southern
railroads must be managed and owned by
Northern men. They are in very distress
ed situation; rolling stock and tracks gone.
Our informant does not foresee an imme-
diate return for Southern investments, but
hepredictslthe amplest returns in the colIrse
OF q very. few years, say three or four,
when ihtercommunication Shall be reopen

pointedly insinuates that Columbus is likely
to be the only city in Ohio to ''neglect the

There seems to be general 0failure to

About q dozen gentlemen met at the

LoDsED IN oHros MILITARY -pRrsoN.-

LODGED IN 0HI0's MILITARY PRIsoN.--
On Tuesday evening, detachment of 1O1
men from the Goth q. s. Colored troops. UNI
der command Of Capt. Worth, arrived at
Tod Barracks from Little Rock, Arkansas.
They started from that place with forty
sevenwhite prisoners who had been
convicted by Military Courts or Commits
sions Of being spies, guerrillas, &C., &C.,
and sentenced to Dry Tortugas and other
military forts and stations. Their sentences
had been commuted by President johnson
into imprisonment for a longer or short
er term, according to the nature of the Of
tense, in the Ohio Penitentiary. Ours is,
we believe, the only State Penitentiary In
the United States that the General Govern
ment uses as Military Prison; atleast, the
only one 80 used with the consent of the
State Legislature and people. ~
The colored guard arrived at the Barracks
with forty-three of their prisoners-four,
Captain and three privates, having escaped
on the way. The guard and the prisoners
remained at the Barracks over Tuesday
night, and yesterday morning the former
were delivered to the State authorities at
the Penitentiary. The detachment left the
Barracks last evening on Its return to Little
Rock. ......, .. '" 81 .roHrr
The colored guard were marched down
High street yesterday afternoon, and at the
Westfront Of the State House, went through
the drill and manual exercise with the mus
ket, with readiness and precision at which
the few spectators who were present, gen
orally seemed highly pleased. We saw none
Of the high State officials on the spot, nor
any of the leading advocates of Negro Suf-
frage. Nobody offered to make reception
speech. After the drill was over the de-
tachment was drawn up on the walk to en-
able an artist to take its Photograph.

Affairs I'm soutI, Carolina.

New YORK, June 2S.-The Worlds cor
respondence from its special commissioner
sent on a journey through the South, dated
Columbia, S. c., June 2lst, details de-
plorable state OF affairs existing in the track
of Sherman's march,. The destruction of
Columbia alone left two hundred acres of
buildings in ruins, and he says it is no fig
lire of speech to say the people are starv-
ing. There are disagreements among the
negroes, their employers and the post com
mandants, but most of the blacks are at
work, on what terms they do not know,
neither do their employers, though there Is
an understanding that they are to have
board and clothing.

The Country. Along the Line of
Shermnn's March.

New YORK, June 2S.-One Of the Heralds
correspondents has recently made a trip
across South Carolina, in the track of Sher-
mans march, and he describes the 'hovac
and desolation, and says: The trace of the
invading army is marked by oblterated
railroads, and a standing country, pretty
well cleared of animals, forage and surplus
provisions. The white people in South
Carolina, while admitting that they are
conquered for the present, still maintain
and give expression to their secession here
sizes and entertain an intense hatred for the
Yankees andrthe tories. Notwithstanding
this, the planters say that they will be better
off without slavery. There is considerable
cotton still scattered throughout the State,
but the greatest part of the crop has been
destroyed.
The people of Columbia have held meet
ings and raised money for the purpose of
celebrating the Fourth of July by giving
dinner to the National soldiers stationed
there. 'iF aI ..caa.Jr pF.tlisab -s',lFE a. 3
