the rebel States, cIn never be fully told.
The iiendish malignity Of Writ. who was
in command et Anier-onyille, and who T. on
trial for his ATROCITIES, Is seen in the letter
to the ST. Albums Messenger. The New
York Times of Aug. 4th contains long
account of his act, from a Southern planter.
who, with other humane persons. vaiuly
sought leave from him to administer some
alienation to the suif-rings of the poor
fellows who were famishing from his inhu-
man cruelty. Let it not be forgotten that
JEFF. Davis and r. IL. Lee must have known
of these continued atrocities, and that they
had power to put a stop to them at any day.
Virtually these horrible dOings had their
sanction-if, indeed. they were not in con-
formity with their direct orders.

On the 7th day of April. 1862, the writer

notoriety for his extreme cruelty toward
prisoners of war under his charge, AMI now
lies in prison awaiting trial for his crimes.
On contemplating the suffering snd tortuIes
of our soldiers while incarceIated IN SJuth-
ern death pens the heart grows faint, and
the mind turns away in SORROW. No pen
can ever picture in its true colOrs the Ills

The Public Deb;.--onciaI Statement.

The following official statement Of the
public debt on tie 2lst of July, and also On
the 3lst of May, is deserving of attention.
1t appears that the total national debt. at
TIN, time, falls considerably below three
thousand millions of dollars. Probably un-
settled amounts and claims which will he
allowed viii carry it to an amount something
over three thousand millions large debt,
indeed. though less than many feared 1t
would be. Yet the resources of the nation
are ample TO meet the annual demand DC
cause of it and the current expenses on Other
amounts. The immense reduction oil army
and naval expense which has been made
within the last sixty days, in treasury and
navy. and which is yet in progress. VIII
lessen the strain on the national Treasury TO
a great extent. As the nation settles down
TO the labors of peace Its resources Will en-
large, and in few years Government VIII
be able 10 lessen its interest account very
much. New loans, 10 take place OF the OLD,
will be negotiated at lower rates than were
nossible while war, on gigantic scale, was
